Whiscash (Japanese: ナマズン Namazun) is a dual-type Water/Ground Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
It evolves from Barboach starting at level 30.
Biology
Whiscash is a dark blue, catfish-like Pokémon with a yellow underbelly. It has a cavernous mouth with light blue lips that have short, thin whiskers growing from the lower lips. Long, yellow barbels grow from its cheeks, and there is a yellow marking on its forehead that resembles a W. The light blue dorsal fin has a pattern of three spots arranged in a triangle, while its horizontal tail fin lacks spots. Its pectoral fins and belly fins match its main body color. It causes earthquakes that can extend for over three miles, and can predict when natural earthquakes will occur. It lives at the bottom of ponds and swamps, and is territorial over them. It eats anything that is alive, and has been shown in the anime to eat inanimate objects as well.
In the anime
Major appearances
Nero
A Whiscash nicknamed Nero appeared in Whiscash and Ash. A fisherman named Sullivan had been hunting it down for fifty years because of its huge size. After Ash had battled Nero and retrieved his Badge Case that it had eaten, Sullivan used it as his chance to finally catch Nero. However, even after using a Master Ball, Nero simply swallowed the Ball and swam away.

Whiscash was the third Pokémon that Juan used for the second half of the Gym battle against Ash in Eight Ain't Enough!. The Whiskers Pokémon was able to defeat Corphish but was defeated by Swellow.
A Whiscash under the ownership of Chōta was set to appear in an episode between Solid as a Solrock and Vanity Affair. However, the episode never aired due to an earthquake that occurred in Japan sometime before its scheduled airdate.

Trivia
Origin
Whiscash may be based on Namazu, a catfish in Japanese mythology which caused earthquakes. Since its pre-evolution appears to be based on a loach, it may also draw inspiration from loach catfish.
Name origin
Whiscash may be a combination of whisker and mustache, referring to the long whiskers it has. Cash may also be a contraction of catfish.
Namazun is derived from 鯰 Namazu (or 大鯰 Ōnamazu), a catfish in Japanese mythology which caused earthquakes. 鯰 namazu also means catfish.
