Corphish (Japanese: ヘイガニ Heigani) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It evolves into Crawdaunt starting at level 30.
Biology
Corphish is a red-shelled, crustacean Pokémon with a short tail similar to a lobster. Its eyes are saucer-like with small pupils, and it has three spikes on top of its head. It possesses four pairs of limbs in total: two large pincers used for gripping prey, and three pairs of legs used for walking. The upper segments of its legs, underside of its body and lower halves of its pincers are cream-colored.

Trivia
- Corphish is the only Pokémon to date with a catch rate of 205.
- Corphish can be found in the Hoenn region, but it says in its Pokédex entries that it came from another region overseas. This would make it the first exotic species in the Pokémon world.
- Corphish's tendency to say "Hey, hey!" in such games as Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness and PokéPark Wii: Pikachu's Adventure is a reference to its Japanese name, "Heigani".
Origin
Based on its Ruby Pokédex entry, Corphish is probably based on the red swamp crayfish, which, like Corphish, are invasive pests in many areas.
Name origin
Corphish may be a combination of corps (a branch of military servicemen; pronounced as core) or corporal (a member of the military or police force) and crayfish (the species it is based on). Alternatively, it could derive from the archaic Newfoundland fishing term corfish, which are a type of dried fish.
Heigani is a combination of 弊 hei (a bad habit or to harm) or 兵 hei (army/troops) and ebigani (crayfish).
