Deepsea Fish
After looking through the fish encyclopedia, I’ve seen only two Deepsea fish in the roster compared to the monstrous amount of Coral Reef dwelling fish - as we only have the Fangtooth, the Blob Fish, and thier Large variants.
Here are my suggestions for more Deepsea fish to include (some of them may be silly, but then again catching keeping live deep-sea fish is impossible after all due to decompression killing them instantly)
- Anglerfish/Footballfish (either one works)
- Male Anglerfish/Footballfish
- Viperfish
- Cookiecutter Shark
- Frilled Shark
- Gulper Eel
- Giant Isopod
- Oarfish
- Coelacanth (most surprising one the game doesn’t have yet)
- Vampire Squid
- Japanese Spider Crab
- Giant/Colossal Squid
- Goblin Shark
- Nautilus
- Comb Jelly
- Barreleye
- Siphonophore
- Brittle Star
- Chimaera
- Sea Pig
- Owlfish
- Predatory Tunicate
- Hagfish
- Sea Angel
- Magnapinna Squid (or as i like to call them, “Page 2 of Google”)
Prehistoric Aquatic Creatures
As for a silly part of my suggestions, These can either be rare fish or exclusive as adopts. Since I have a soft spot for these guys.
- Trilobite
- Ammonite
- Cameroceras
- Hallucigenia (my favorite)
- Anomalocaris
- Helicoprion
- Dunkleosteus
- Sea Scorpion
- The Tully Monster
- Opabinia
- Sea Lily (These ones are still alive, but Pokemon made me realize they’re ancient)
- Wiwaxia
- Sacabambaspis (a friend’s favorite)
Conclusion
Yeah the chances of these being added are low due to the fish AI being so simple, but i hope they diversify that based on species like stingrays stick to the bottom or fish of the same species schooling.
Feel free to suggest your point on the subject.
