'''Gorebyss''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サクラビス''' ''Sakurabyss'') is a {{type|Water}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


=Pokédex entries=
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Clamperl}} when [[Trade Evolution|traded]] while holding a [[Deep Sea Scale]]. It is one of Clamperl's final forms, the other being {{p|Huntail}}.
; [[Pokémon Emerald]]
: A Gorebyss siphons the body fluids of prey through its thin, tubular mouth. Its light pink body color turns vivid when it finishes feeding.


=Name origin=
==Biology==
Gorebyss's name is a combination of ''gore'', to stab, and ''byss'', referring to filaments [[wp:mollusk|mollusk]]s use to attach themselves to rocks. Its name could also possibly be a play on ''gorgeous''. Another explanation could lie with the words ''abyss'' and the ''[[wp:abyssal zone|abyssal zone]]''. Gorebyss's descriptions seem to confirm this view.
Gorebyss is a pink, serpentine {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with a long, thin mouth. This pointed mouth is used to stab prey and drain their body fluids. However, it has also been known to feed on seaweed that grows between stones. Its pink skin becomes brighter in the spring and after it has fed. Its body color changes with water temperature, with Gorebyss found in [[Alola]] having blindingly vivid coloration. A long, purple-tipped fin extends from the top of its head, and there is a thin, pointed fin extending beneath its head. There are two purple shells on its chest, causing it to somewhat resemble a mermaid. The tail has a purple, circular fin at the tip, and two white bands near its base.
Its Japanese name is derived from the Japanese ''[[wp:sakura|sakura]]'', cherry blossom, possibly referring to its pink color, and the aforementioned ''byss''.


Gorebyss may have been based on a [[wp:hagfish|hagfish]].
This Pokémon's body is durable enough to withstand high-pressure levels in the deep {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon|sea}}, where it lives. Additionally, this adaptation allows it to withstand powerful attacks.

===Origin===
Gorebyss may have been based on the {{wp|snipe eel}}. It also resembles a {{wp|pipefish}} as well as an {{wp|oarfish}} and a {{wp|Rhinochimaeridae|chimaera}}. The feminine aspects, {{wp|shell}} bra, and tail of Gorebyss are reminiscent of {{wp|mermaid}}s. The shell might be the remains from its previous form, {{p|Clamperl}}.
 
====Name origin====
Gorebyss may be a combination of ''gore'' (bloodshed; to pierce), ''gorgeous'', and ''abyss''.
 
Sakurabyss may be a combination of 桜 ''{{wp|sakura}}'' (cherry blossom) and ''abyss''.

Gorebyss (Japanese: サクラビス Sakurabyss) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves from Clamperl when traded while holding a Deep Sea Scale. It is one of Clamperl's final forms, the other being Huntail.

Biology

Gorebyss is a pink, serpentine Pokémon with a long, thin mouth. This pointed mouth is used to stab prey and drain their body fluids. However, it has also been known to feed on seaweed that grows between stones. Its pink skin becomes brighter in the spring and after it has fed. Its body color changes with water temperature, with Gorebyss found in Alola having blindingly vivid coloration. A long, purple-tipped fin extends from the top of its head, and there is a thin, pointed fin extending beneath its head. There are two purple shells on its chest, causing it to somewhat resemble a mermaid. The tail has a purple, circular fin at the tip, and two white bands near its base.

This Pokémon's body is durable enough to withstand high-pressure levels in the deep sea, where it lives. Additionally, this adaptation allows it to withstand powerful attacks.

Evolution

Gorebyss evolves from Clamperl and is one of its final forms, the other being Huntail.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)
