Description

A fish with a very long body. Its striking appearance may have inspired tales of legendary sea creatures.
— Fish-o-pedia description, Sonic Frontiers [1]
The oarfish [2] (リュウグウノツカイ[3] [4] , ryūgūnotsukai ? ) , also known as the ryūgū (リュウグウ[3] , ryūgū ? ) , is an animal that appears in the Sonic the Hedgehog series . It is a very long, deep-sea fish that can be caught during fishing.
Description [ ]
Based off of the real-life oarfish , it is a very long fish that vaguely resembles a serpent. It has a very long, dull green dorsal fin going down its back, a small set of red fins growing off the head, and a pair of tube-like fins just below the head. In Sonic Adventure , the oarfish's appearance is slightly altered with a smaller body, and its frontal fins situated like a crest rather than a sail as it is in Sonic Frontiers . its tube-like fins are also larger and more noticeable.
Game appearances [ ]
Sonic Adventure [ ]
In Sonic Adventure and its enhanced port Sonic Adventure DX: Director's Cut , the fish species went under the name ryūgū (リュウグウ[3] , ryūgū ? ) , short for ryūgūnotsukai (リュウグウノツカイ[3] , ryūgūnotsukai ? lit. "oarfish") according to Sonic Adventure: Navigation Guide . In gameplay, it can only be found within Hot Shelter during Big the Cat 's fishing gameplay. Catching one is worth 800 to 2,000 points to the player's overall score.
Sonic Frontiers [ ]
In Sonic Frontiers , the oarfish is one of collectable fishes to be earned in Fishing Spot minigame hosted by Big the Cat . Depending on the location, it is worth a varying amount of Treasure Tokens : It is worth 12 tokens in the Northern Fishing Spot [2] and worth 24 tokens in the Eastern Fishing Spot .[5]
