How to Get a Corphish in "Pokemon HeartGold"
In the "Pokemon" series, Corphish is an aggressive Water-type Pokemon that resembles a crayfish. Although it is weak to Grass- and Electric-type attacks, Corphish has partial resistance to Steel-, Fire-, Water- and Ice-type moves; in addition, it learns a handful of powerful attacks, including Guillotine, which can knock out an opponent in one hit. To add this Pokemon to your team in "Pokemon SoulSilver," you'll need to unlock the Safari Zone and customize its landscape. Under certain conditions, Corphish will appear on Rocky Beach.
