The name, Corsola, is probably a portmanteau of the words "coral" and "solar". The origin of "-sola" is evident in the fact that Corsola is attracted to the sun, habitates in warm waters, and that the branches on its head reflect the sun's colors. Corsola's Japanese name, Sanigo, is also a portmanteau of "Sango" (さんご) which means coral, and the Japanese pronunciation of the word "sunny" (サニー) which is romanized as "sanī".

Biological characteristics

Corsola is a marine creature composed mostly of a pink substance similar to real coral. It has a small face and a white underbelly. In addition to the coral outgrowths (also described as branches) situated all over the upper half of its body, Corsola also has a growth like a horn on its head, and that is considered its natural armament when facing underwater predators. Some of the biodiversity of a coral reef. ...

The coral flesh of Corsola is continually shed as the Pokémon grows. The branches serve to supply Corsola with nutrients by absorbing them from wherever there is clean water. Corsola’s branches, when the Pokémon is beached ashore, glitters beautifully in seven colors of the rainbow when they catch the sunlight. The branches are amazingly expendable; If any branch breaks off, Corsola can grow it back over the period of one night (compare with Staryu). However, this fragility is undermined by Corsola’s inability to live in polluted water. If the sea is polluted, Corsola’s branches become discolored and soon crumble away, where soon after the Pokémon will die. Staryu Hitodeman in original Japanese language versions) is a basic water-type Pokémon, which resembles a five-armed starfish with some sort of yellow metal wrapped around the center. ...

Corsola is a Pokémon with a migratory life cycle. It prefers to live wherever the seas are warm. Thus it is a common sight near the shorelines whenever the Summer season befalls a region. When Corsola are in the northern seas during the summer in the northern hemisphere, once winter approaches, they migrate back en masse to the southern seas where it is now the summer for the southern hemisphere. Wherever it resides, countless Corsola blanket the shallow ocean floor, and their makeshift reef can serve as an ideal hiding place for other small Pokémon, particularly the pink heart-like Luvdisc. Luvdisc , Lovecus in original Japanese language versions, May 14, 1397 - December 14, 1999) was one of the 493 fictional species of Pokémon from the Pokémon Franchise – a series of video games, anime, manga, books, trading cards and other media created by Satoshi Tajiri. ...

Corsola plays an interesting supportive role in southern regions inhabited by humans. In south sea nations, people live in communities that have been built on groups of these Pokémon. The most famous example of this is in the southern nation of Hoenn, where the wooden, boarded town of Pacifidlog has been built far offshore and now floats on a huge colony of Corsola.

Corsola's stats are all mediocre or below-average, but its decent Defense, Special Defense, and Hit Points let it take at least a few hits before fainting. On the plus side, it can learn Mirror Coat, useful against opponents with Special attacks. On the negative side, its dual Water/Rock type makes it very weak when facing Grass-types.

Though it's stats aren't the greatest for battling, Corsola really shines when it comes to breeding, allowing a lot of Pokémon to learn Mirror Coat and Ancient Power easily.
