Ash's Corphish

Ash's Corphish (Japanese: サトシのヘイガニ Satoshi's Heigani) was the third Pokémon caught by Ash during his travels through Hoenn, after Taillow and Treecko. Its voice actor in Japanese is 小西克幸 Katsuyuki Konishi, and its English voice actress is Maddie Blaustein.

Ash caught Corphish in the episode Gone Corphishin'!. Ash and his friends were camping on a beach, and Corphish was attacking them from underneath the sand. Eventually its identity was revealed and Ash battled it, catching it.

Corphish has a rather quirky personality. It tends to get jealous of Ash's other Pokémon, and it enjoys being the center of attention. In Go Go Ludicolo!, it was worried that Ash's newly evolved Grovyle would get more attention from Ash because of its higher level. Like its trainer, it is headstrong and stubborn. In the episode Candid Camerupt!, Max borrowed Corphish to use against Vivi Winstrate's Marill; it jumped on Marill with a powerful attack, instantly defeating it, to Max's embarrassment. Corphish was also the main comic relief of Ash's team when most of his Pokémon were evolved and more serious.

Ash left Corphish at Professor Oak's lab when he decided to go to Sinnoh.

Interestingly, its Bubblebeam changes colors throughout the series, but no one seems to notice.
