A swarm of Qwilfish appeared in ''[[PS122|Querulous Qwilfish]]'', angered by pollution that occurred as a result of an accident that occurred during the construction of the {{Gdis|Battle Tower|II}}. {{adv|Crystal}} captured all of them with her skills.

Qwilfish (Japanese: ハリーセン Harysen) is a dual-type Water/Poison Pokémon.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.

Biology

Qwilfish is a sea dwelling Pokémon with a spherical body and a flat, paddle-shaped tail. The upper-half of its body is dark teal and the lower half is very light yellow. Its tail is tall and thin with a dark teal outline, light yellow inside, and two dark teal dots in the center. Its eyes are even with its body, and are always seen slanted angrily. Below its eyes are its puffy pink lips. All around its body are sharp, conical spikes, which evolved from scales over time. In order to attack, Qwilfish drinks 2.6 gallons of water to inflate its body. It then uses the water pressure to shoot poisonous quills at its foe. Due to its round body, Qwilfish is not a great swimmer, and when filled with water it is even harder for it to swim.

In the manga

Qwilfish as it appears in Pokémon Adventures

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

A swarm of Qwilfish appeared in Querulous Qwilfish, angered by pollution that occurred as a result of an accident that occurred during the construction of the Battle Tower. Crystal captured all of them with her skills. Afterwards she found a baby Qwilfish stuck in the toxic waste, which it and the sea were cured and cleaned up respectively. It is unknown if they are still under Crystal's ownership or were released back afterwards.

In The Last Battle XIII a Qwilfish was one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in Ilex Forest.

Qwilfish can be seen under the possession of several Team Aqua Grunts during the Ruby & Sapphire arc.

Much later, in the Platinum arc, Qwilfish appeared as one of the Pokémon that Platinum rented during the Battle Factory challenge.

Pokédex entries

Manga Chapter Entry

Trivia

File:Alpha bukuu.png
Qwilfish's early design, Bukū

Origin

Qwilfish is based on both pufferfish and porcupinefish. Its ability to shoot its toxic quills somewhat resembles explosions, which could mean it may have been based on a naval mine.

Name origin

Qwilfish is a combination of quill and fish.

Harysen may be a shortening of 針千本 harisenbon (porcupinefish). An early version of Qwilfish was called Bukū, which may be a corruption of 河豚 fugu (pufferfish).
