WhiscashDragon #48 Pokémon Card

Whiscash, the Whiskers Pokémon, is a dual Water/Ground-type species introduced in Generation III. It evolves from Barboach starting at level 30. Native to freshwater environments, particularly rivers and lakes, Whiscash is known for its large, catfish-like appearance, characterized by prominent barbels that aid in sensing its surroundings and food sources. Its diet primarily consists of smaller aquatic Pokémon and plant matter. Whiscash is often depicted as a gentle giant, though it can exhibit surprising strength and resilience, capable of causing small earthquakes. In the Pokémon games, it is valued for its unique typing, which grants it immunity to Electric-type attacks, and its access to powerful Ground-type moves. In the anime, Whiscash has appeared in various episodes, often portrayed as a powerful and elusive Pokémon, notably in the episode "The Great Eight Fate!", where it was a formidable opponent in a gym battle. Its design and abilities contribute to its cultural significance as a representation of aquatic power and natural seismic activity within the Pokémon world.
