Puckering Blinnow

The Puckering Blimmow is a aquatic creature that was first discovered by Captain Charlie during his expedition. Numerous others of this creature were found during the Sparklium Expedition by Captain Olimar.

Appearance
These creatures are very fish-like in appearance, vaguely resembling their anatomy to an Earth Knife Fish. They are covered in small, smooth scales pattern with pink sides and blue spots along its back and sides as well. Its tail fin stretches along its belly to its end. The spots, discovered by Captain Olimar himself, turn light pink during breeding season possibly as a means of display.

Its head is round, with very large eyes and a pointed mouth, which gives the creatures its name as it appears to be "puckering up".

Behavior
Puckering Blinnows are fast-swimming pack hunters. They are very quick compared to other underwater creatures, and go for small prey items either from water or along the banks, which they pluck out and bolt away quickly as true minnows do on Earth. They are agile enough to catch even flying organisms from the surface of the water.
