Biology

Corsola is a Pokémon greatly resembling coral. Corsola has strong regenerative properties.

Design & origin

Corsola has been considered similar to various types of coral, including the order scleractinia, which have a stony skeleton, the anthozoa group of cnidarians, and janaria mirabilis. Corsola's English name comes from the words "coral" and "solar".

Forms

Galarian Corsola

Galarian Corsola resembles dead coral, as well as the coral type acropora. Unlike regular Corsola, it evolves into Cursola.
