Read more ↓Wishiwashi, the Small Fry Pokémon, is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII. While individually tiny and seemingly weak, Wishiwashi possesses a remarkable ability known as Schooling. When in danger or facing a powerful opponent, numerous Wishiwashi gather together to form a colossal, intimidating School Form. This transformation makes it appear as a much larger, more powerful Pokémon, capable of rivaling even legendary creatures. Its natural habitat is the deep ocean, where it typically swims in small schools. Its diet consists of smaller marine organisms. In its Solo Form, Wishiwashi is known for its timid nature, but in its School Form, it becomes a formidable force, showcasing the power of unity. Wishiwashi has no evolutionary line, existing solely as itself but with its transformative ability. It plays a significant role in the Alola region's ecosystem and is featured in both the Pokémon Sun and Moon games and the anime, where its unique ability is often highlighted in battles. Its concept resonates with themes of teamwork and overcoming adversity through collective strength, making it a culturally significant Pokémon in the franchise.
