Experts Have Revealed The Real Identity Of An 'Alien Fish' That Confused Everyone

Earlier this week a fish was caught that looked like an underdeveloped Pokemon and it confused everyone.

The 'alien like' creature was caught off the coast of Mexico and it began to haunt people's dreams.

However, Pisces Sportfishing Fleet have identified what the scary bastard is and it turns out it's an albino swell shark.

The shark was hard to identify as it has three gills either side of its head as apposed to the five to seven that sharks usually have. Its oddly coloured skin also caused confusion, as well as its weirdly shaped, green alien like eyes.

Despite the finding, Pisces Sportfishing Fleet still have some doubts over whether it is actually a swell shark. I'm not suggesting it's an alien, I'd just be happier if it was a shark so it couldn't take over the world.
