Trivia[]

  • Stunfisk is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 471.
  • Stunfisk was stated that its creation stemmed from a desire to make the flattest Pokémon ever.
  • Stunfisk was originally designed as a blue dual-type Water/Electric Pokémon based on a goosefish. Its type was changed for balancing reasons, and its appearance ended up resembling a flounder.
  • In Pokémon Sword and Shield, due to an oversight, Galarian Stunfisk is not considered a Regional form.
    • As a consequence, in Pokémon Sword and Shield, if a male Unovan Stunfisk and a female Galarian Stunfisk both holding Everstones are bred, the offspring will be a Unovan Stunfisk—for other regional forms, if both parents are different regional forms of the same species and both hold Everstones, the offspring's form will match the mother's form.
