Corsola (Japanese: サニーゴ Sunnygo) is a dual-type Water/Rock Pokémon.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Corsola is a small, pink, roundish Pokémon with branch-like growths on its back. It has a white underside with four stubby legs. Corsola also has a pair of pink, stubby arms. Corsola's face appears to resemble Chansey's.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Corsola are known to have great regenerative powers. Unlike real coral, which can take years to grow, if any of their horns are broken, it can grow back in as little as a single night. However, in order for this to function properly, they need clean ocean water. They cannot survive in polluted water.
Corsola is somewhat of a defensive Pokémon. It is capable of using self-healing attacks such as Recover and Aqua Ring. Corsola is also capable of using a few stat-boosting moves such as Barrier, Calm Mind, and Amnesia. Corsola is one of the few Pokémon that can learn Power Gem and also learns some Ground-type moves, such as Earth Power.
Behavior
Corsola often have a plucky, cheerful disposition and often form large social groups in their habitats. Occasionally these groups get so large that people may live atop them - as is the case in Pacifidlog Town. Although they gear towards the defensive side of battling, Corsola usually show a cheerful determination and are prepared to do the best that they can.
Habitat
Corsola live in the warm shallow waters of southern seas. Their environment needs to have plenty of clear water in order to thrive.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food

Trivia
- Corsola was the only Rock-type Pokémon that could learn Power Gem before Platinum, despite Power Gem being a Rock-type move.
- Corsola (with the possible exception of the Nosepass line) is the only Pokémon without a gem on its body to learn Power Gem, though coral is often used in jewelry.
- Corsola is the only non-Grass Pokémon to learn Ingrain. This may be due to the fact that corals are often rooted to a single spot and grow like plants.
- Corsola and Relicanth are the only Water/Rock Pokémon that are not revived fossil Pokémon.
- However, Relicanth is considered to be an ancient Pokémon nevertheless.
- Corsola is the only pink Rock-type Pokémon.
- Corsola is the only Rock/Water Pokémon who can't have the ability Swift Swim.
Origin
Corsola is based on coral, possibly red coral.
Name origin
Corsola's name may be a combination of coral and sole, a piece of coral, or solar. Its Japanese appears to be a combination of sunny and 珊瑚 sango, coral.
