Basculin (Japanese: バスラオ Bassrao) is a Water-type Pokémon. While it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, it does have two different appearances: Red-Striped Form, which has a red stripe and irises, with a round eye and spiky fins, and Blue-Striped Form, which has a blue stripe and irises, with a slit eye and smooth fins.
The body of both Red- and Blue-Striped Basculin is the same. They have a green, ovoid body, tapering off in the rear to a trapezoidal tail fin. A thick black stripe covers the top of their body from mouth to tail and a white, dorsal fin with four protrusions resembling spikes. Their lower jaw juts ahead of their upper jaw, with a small indent near the edges of their mouth. Both forms have three black dots on both sides of their body, behind their pectoral fins.
The main difference between the two forms of Basculin is the color of the stripe that separates the black and green on their body. Both forms of Basculin have fins in the same places, with one on top of their body ahead of the tail fin, one below the body ahead of the tail fin, and two side fins. However, Red-Striped Basculin have jagged fins that resemble tridents, whereas Blue-Striped Basculin have smooth fins all around. Red-Striped Basculin have circular, red eyes, while Blue-Striped Basculin have narrower, blue eyes.
Both forms of Basculin are extremely hostile, especially towards their opposite form. Red- and Blue-Striped Basculin generally start fighting each other on sight. However, on rare occasions, one form may swim with the other's school. Basculin are also consumed by humans and are considered very delicious.
