Field Notes ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

The catalogue entry describes Gulpfish as a round, cheerful water-dweller that never takes life too seriously, and nothing observed at Crystal Cascade contradicts it. The creature spends its days playing in shallow bays, bouncing through waves with the buoyant indifference of an animal built mostly of mouth. That mouth is the defining feature: it can hold gallons of water at once, which Gulpfish then spouts at friends and foes alike — an indiscriminate habit that makes approaching one an exercise in staying dry rather than staying safe.

For the record book: rarity is catalogued SSS with a community rank of E (as with every revealed creature so far), it spawns in any weather, caps at level 90, and carries no EM slot. The secondary Ground element is easy to miss in a fish this waterlogged, but the matchup data bears it out.

Base Stats & Battle Role ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

Community-verified base stats: 82 HP, 60 Attack, 55 Defense, 69 Sp. Atk, 55 Sp. Def, and 35 Speed, for a total of 356. The distribution reads as a slow, moderately bulky special attacker — the 82 HP is the standout figure, the 69 Sp. Atk its best offensive lever, and the 35 Speed a near-guarantee that Gulpfish moves last and must plan accordingly.

The Water/Ground pairing gives it favorable offense into Fire, Electric, Poison, Ground and Rock types, and it resists incoming Fire, Poison, Rock and Steel attacks. The tax on that typing is steep, however: Grass, Ice, Flying and rival Water attacks all land hard, with Grass the matchup most worth routing around entirely. Cross-check the full Type Chart before slotting it into a Team Builder draft, and remember that a captured Gulpfish's real numbers also depend on its Talent grade and Nature roll.

Evolution & Where to Find ✎ Observed (cross-referenced)

Gulpfish is the base stage of a two-member line, evolving into Mirefish (Dex #25), a whiskered river giant that keeps the Water/Ground typing. The exact evolution method has not yet been documented by the community. The Water Element Stone is on record as the stone used for Water-type evolutions generally, which makes it the obvious candidate here, but this specific line has not been individually verified — treat the method as reported, not confirmed. Element stones, when you need them, come from shops, chests, and redeem codes.

Catching the base form is refreshingly simple: Gulpfish spawns at Crystal Cascade, and since every revealed creature spawns in any weather, no waiting on conditions is required. Impatient collectors can skip the negotiation entirely — an Advance Ball carries a 100% catch rate.
