Corsola (Japanese: サニーゴ Sunnygo) is a dual-type Water/Rock Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon.
In Galar, Corsola has a Ghost-type regional form. It evolves into Cursola starting at level 38.
Biology
Corsola is a small, pink, roundish Pokémon with branch-like growths on its back, which are similar to coral. There is a smaller, blunt horn on its forehead, and it has black, oval eyes. It has a white underside, which speckles towards the sides. Its four legs and two arms are blunt and stubby.
Found in the warm shallow waters of southern seas, Corsola requires clean water to live. If its habitat is dirty, the growths on its back become discolored and degenerate. However, when it is healthy, its growths regularly shed and grow back. It is able to regrow them over the course of a single night. It forms large social groups. Occasionally, these groups get so large that people may live atop them, as is the case in Pacifidlog Town. Corsola's horn is a prized material, commonly used for jewelry and carving, as seen in the anime. Smaller Pokémon like Horsea and Luvdisc are sometimes sheltered by Corsola's branches, and even offer it protection from foes.
Galarian Corsola were wiped out by sudden changes in ocean temperature, turning them into Ghost-types. Its body is a bleached white with half-closed pink eyes and a perpetual frown, and its arms and branches have a distinctly semitransparent appearance to them; the branches can be used to take root inside and drain the life force of others.
Their branches cannot cause injuries or pain, but they immobilize the victim until Galarian Corsola lets them go. They are commonly found in the remains of prehistoric seas, and while they can be mistaken for ordinary rocks, they will curse anybody who kicks them by accident.[1]
In the Alola region, Mareanie and Toxapex are natural predators of Corsola. However, they do not fulfill those roles in the Galar region, having not realized the branches of Corsola are delicious.

Trivia
- Corsola can be seen as a parallel to Farfetch'd in Sword and Shield. Both of their original region's forms do not evolve, and they both change types while remaining mono-typed. Allister in Shield uses Galarian Corsola's evolution, Cursola, in his team while Bea in Sword uses Galarian Farfetch'd's evolution, Sirfetch'd, in her team at the Stow-on-Side Stadium and during the Champion Cup Finals.
- Corsola is the only Generation II Pokémon in the Water 3 Egg Group.
- Galarian Corsola and its evolution are the only Ghost-type Pokémon in both Water 1 and Water 3 Egg Groups.
Origin
Corsola appears to be based on coral, possibly precious coral, which is used as a precious stone.
Galarian Corsola appears to be based on bleached coral, a phenomenon in which coral expels the algae that give it color, primarily because of rising water temperatures as a result of climate change.
Name origin
Corsola may be a combination of coral and sole (a piece of coral) or solar.
Sunnygo may be a combination of sunny and 珊瑚 sango (coral).
