Icon from Mario & Luigi: Brothership.
Description
"A fish only found in the Gulchrock and Stormstar Seas. Fetches an impressively high price."
First appearance Mario & Luigi: Brothership (2024)

Treasurefish are rare fish in Mario & Luigi: Brothership that are found in the Gulchrock and Stormstar Seas of Concordia. They can be caught by fishing for them as either Mario or Luigi from the fishing spot on Shipshape Island; when hooked, three exclamation points display on the screen (!!!). When caught, they are treated as items and can be sold for 1,000 coins.

The talking whirlpool in the oasis on Allsand Island requests the player to offer a Treasurefish to it, the third offer of its chain of requests; satisfying the whirlpool's offers rewards the player with the Seedle-ize Battle Plug.
