Talk:Corphish (Pokémon)

Ok, so what kind of crab is it based on? There's two spellings given for it. And the Wiki article link leads to a 'Wikipedia does not have an article with this name' page--BJG

Sorry. Fixed. -Argy

I think Heike is japanese for crayfish.

平家蟹 【へいけがに】 (n) Heikegani, Heike crab

Not quite... Heike is Japanese for Taira family. More info on the link between this and the crab on the linked-to article. - 振霖_T 03:59, 3 Apr 2005 (UTC)

It seems to be a cross between a crayfish and a lobster to me...--BJG

Corfish?

I found out today that "corfish" is an actual word. But I can't work out what it means, or how Corphish may be related to it. (Corpshish doesn't look like a codfish, or any kind of fish, after all...)

I don't know, but they look nothing alike. Their names may be similar, but that's it. I don't see why somebody added a load of crap about the Corfish's biology either. empoleon dynamite 12/01/08

Name origin

Holy fudge... the Name Origin section is a little large. Could someone break it down a little? TinaTheKirlia ♥ File:281MS.gif 19:48, 3 October 2007 (UTC)

Hey hey!

In Mystery Dungeon: Darkness and Time, one of the guild members is a Corphish that always says "Hey hey!" Well, I noticed that the first syllable of its Japanese name is hei, pronounced like hey. In this clip, around 30 seconds, you can clearly hear Ash's Corphish shout "Hei hei!", which sounds like "Hey hey!" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqF93w2iLmA&feature=channel_page
