The '''koi''' is a freshwater [[fish]] in the {{SER}}. In games prior to {{NH}}, it is found in [[river]]s, and in {{NH|short|nolink}}, it is found in [[pond]]s. It can be found between 4 PM to 9 AM all year as a large shadow. In {{PG}} and {{WW|short}}, it sells for 2,000 [[Bell]]s, and in {{CF|short}}, {{NL|short}}, and {{NH|short|nolink}}, it sells for 4,000 Bells.

{{Blathers|NL|Though typically pale in color, these aquarium fish also can be found with rather beautiful patterns. This is all thanks to very selective breeding of carp with genetic mutations, allowing for diversity. No two koi have the exact same pattern and are popularly known as "swimming jewels" as a result. They can be sold for a very high price, depending on their coloring and pattern. If properly cared for, they can live for over 100 years, making them a staple for outdoor garden ponds.}}

[[File:RealKoi.jpg|thumb|Different varieties of koi.]]
The ''koi'' is an ornamental fish of the common carp variety, or ''Cyprinus carpio''. They are found usually in private and public aquariums and they are bred mainly for decoration. Much as the [[goldfish]], the koi is also interbred from specially selected [[carp]]. Unlike the goldfish, however, they have a common body shape, but with different colors (the opposite of goldfish). They are omnivores, feeding mainly on insects and algae. The name ''koi'' comes from the Japanese コイ, pertaining to the common carp—the Japanese term for koi is ''nishigikoi'' (錦鯉), which literally means "brocaded carp."
