Mareanie (ヒドイデ Hidoide) is a Poison/Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
Biology
Physiology
Mareanie looks a lot like James's head, except it has spikes on its hair, and sharp teeth.
Behavior
Mareanie is usually found moving along the ocean floor near coastal areas. The spike on top of its head contains a deadly toxin that is injected into prey. Mareanie is also able to finish off its weakened victim with all ten of its tentacles.
Although most Mareanie prey on Corsola, the Mareanie from Galar have never tasted Corsola before.
Diet
Corsola is Mareanie's natural prey.
Natural abilities
Evolution
Mareanie evolves into Toxapex at level 38.

Pokédex entries
- Sun
It plunges the poison spike on its head into its prey. When the prey has weakened, Mareanie deals the finishing blow with its 10 tentacles.
- Moon
It's found crawling on beaches and seafloors. The coral that grows on Corsola's head is as good as a five-star banquet to this Pokémon.
- Ultra Sun
They eat Corsola branches, so Mareanie are hated by craftsmen who work with Corsola branches that have naturally fallen off.
- Ultra Moon
Aside from its head, its body parts regenerate quickly if they're cut off. After a good night's sleep, Mareanie is back to normal.
- Sword
The first symptom of its sting is numbness. The next is an itching sensation so intense that it's impossible to resist the urge to claw at your skin.
- Shield
Unlike their Alolan counterparts, the Mareanie of the Galar region have not yet figured out that the branches of Corsola are delicious.

Appearances
James' Mareanie.
Trivia
- Sometimes when a wild Corsola calls for help in an SOS battle a Mareanie appears instead. When this happens, the Mareanie attacks Corsola first before targeting the player's Pokémon.
Origin
Mareanie may be based on a sea urchin mixed with a Crown-of-Thorns starfish. Its predation of Corsola may be based on how Crown-of-Thorns starfish destroy coral reefs by feasting on the growing polyps.
Etymology
Mareanie comes from "marine", "meanie", and possibly "echinoderm". Parts of its name may also be taken from "sea anemone".
Names in other languages
- English: Mareanie
- Japanese: ヒドイデ Hidoide (mixture of 酷い hidoi (cruel) and 海星 hitode (sea star)).
- Korean: 시마사리 Simasari (mixture of 심하다 simhada (severe) and 불가사리 bulgasari (sea star)).
- French: Vorastérie (mixture of vorace (voracious) and astérie (sea star)).
- German: Garstella (mixture of garstig (nasty) and Stella Marina (Latin for sea star)).
