The Fish

The Fish (ちかたいがのぬし Chika-taiga no Nushi "Underground River Master" in Mother) is a boss in EarthBound Beginnings. It is a fish that guards the entrance to the room containing the Onyx Hook in the Crystal Cavern in Magicant. Although it is not required, it makes it much easier to get to Magicant.
== Trivia ==
* This enemy was also intended to be in Mother 3, but it was cut from the game for an unknown reason.
* The irony in this boss is that it is a fish guarding an item that just so happens to be a hook. With this context, it would be the fish that caught the player with the enticement of bait (Onyx Hook).
* This is one of the only aquatic-related enemies in the game along with the Crocodile.
* In the companion guide, he is called "Master of the Underflow" (Varies according to fan translation) in Mother, "The Fish" in EarthBound Beginnings, and "Cave Master" in Mother 1 + 2, making this enemy incredibly varied in name among versions.
** Their description reads, "Deep in the Magicant Underflow, he keeps a keen eye out for prey. His body being covered in hard, iron-like scales, no minor attack will so much as faze him. Always launches continuous attacks.".
