Feebas

Feebas is a Water type Pokémon introduced in Generation 3. It is known as the Fish Pokémon.

Feebas is very rare in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, being available by fishing in one of only six random squares on Route 119. Similarly in Diamond/Pearl/Platinum it can only be found in one of four random squares in Mt. Coronet.

Feebas also has a unique evolution. In RSE, DPPt and Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire it will evolve into Milotic by maximizing its Beauty stat with Poffins. From Black/White onwards Feebas will evolve when traded holding a Prism Scale, however it can also evolve if migrated from an earlier game already having maximum Beauty.

Sapphire While FEEBAS’s body is in tatters, it has a hardy and tenacious life force that enables it to live anywhere. However, this POKéMON is also slow and dimwitted, making it an easy catch.
