==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Goldeen is a white {{wp|fish|piscine}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with orange markings. It has circular blue eyes with orange lids and prominent pink lips. On its forehead is a large horn, which is larger on a male than on a female. It has a small, wavy {{wp|dorsal fin}} surrounded by an orange patch and long {{wp|fish fin|pectoral fins}} with orange markings at the bases. Goldeen's billowing tail fin is orange around the base and turns white toward the edges. Its tail is admired by many for its beauty and similarity to a ballroom dress.
Goldeen is a white fish Pokémon with orange markings on its tail, back, and fins. It has a single fin going down its back, and {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with fins|thin pectoral fins}}. Goldeen's tail fin is admired by many for its beauty as it billows very much like a ballroom dress. It has a large horn on its forehead.
====Gender differences====
A male has a larger horn, while the female has a smaller horn.


===Special abilities===
Goldeen has a wild temperament and will use its horn to smash its way to freedom if kept in an aquarium. It competes with others of its kind to determine which has the strongest, thickest horn. Humans swimming near it must exercise caution lest Goldeen rams them. Goldeen is a very common sight in any body of {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon|fresh water}}, including ponds, lakes, and rivers. It can be seen swimming upstream in large schools during the breeding season in spring. Its strong fins allow it to maintain a steady speed of five knots while swimming upstream. It is known as the "Water Dancer" due to its elegant movements in the water. In [[Generation I]], {{m|Waterfall}} was its [[signature move]].
Goldeen's large and dangerous horn is its main weapon. Although not known as an aggressive Pokémon, people swimming in waters that Goldeen are known to inhabit should be wary of being rammed.


===Behavior===
===Evolution===
Goldeen can be seen swimming upstream in large schools during the breeding season in spring. Goldeen swims at a steady speed of five knots. They love to frolic and dance in bodies of water and dislike being kept in captivity. A Goldeen in an aquarium will use its powerful horn to smash its way to freedom.
Goldeen evolves into {{p|Seaking}}.


===Habitat===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)

<div style="float:center; display:flex; flex-flow:row wrap;">
Goldeen are a very common sight in any body of fresh water like ponds, lakes, rivers. It can be [[fishing|fished]] up in [[Kanto]], [[Johto]], [[Hoenn]],  [[Sinnoh]], and [[Unova]].

{{main|Goldeen (TCG)}}
 
==Other appearances==
[[File:SSBB Goldeen.png|right|thumb|200px|Goldeen in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros.]]===
When released from a {{ball|Poké}}, Goldeen will use {{m|Splash}}, having no effect on the battle.
 
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When released from a Poké Ball, Goldeen will use {{m|Splash}}, having no effect on the battle.
 
Goldeen is also a Pokéfloat. It will appear from the bottom of the screen but quickly drop down to the bottom again, K.O.ing any character it hits.
 
====Trophy information====
''These Water-types are often referred to as "water dancers," as their elegant fins make them incredible agile underwater. They can even travel upstream in rapids at a speed of five knots; of course, they're not quite as nimble on dry land. Goldeen's {{m|Horn Drill}} is so strong that it can KO an enemy with one strike if it connects.''
 
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Goldeen will sometimes be found in a Poké Ball and will use {{m|Splash}} when released. It still does nothing to affect the battle. On the official blog, Masahiro Sakurai commented that Goldeen appearing at the most critical of times is in keeping with {{wp|Murphy's Law}}. [http://www.smashbros.com/en_uk/items/mball/mball01.html]
 
==== Trophy Information ====
 
''"A Goldfish Pokémon.  In contrast to its elegant appearance, it has a wild temperament, and its attack with its horn is severe.  Among the techniques it can master, {{m|Horn Drill}} is especially reliable.  It evolves into Seaking, but if raised without evolving, it can learn the powerful {{type|Bug}} {{m|Megahorn}}.  There are male and female Goldeen--the male's horn is longer."''

Goldeen is also a Pokéfloat. It will appear from the bottom of the screen but quickly drop down to the bottom again, knocking out any character it hits.
 
====Trophy information====
''These Water-types are often referred to as "water dancers," as their elegant fins make them incredible agile underwater. They can even travel upstream in rapids at a speed of five knots; of course, they're not quite as nimble on dry land. Goldeen's {{m|Horn Drill}} is so strong that it can KO an enemy with one strike if it connects.''
 
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Goldeen will sometimes be found in a Poké Ball and will use {{m|Splash}} when released. It does nothing to affect the battle. On the official blog, Masahiro Sakurai commented that Goldeen appearing at the most critical of times is in keeping with {{wp|Murphy's Law}}.<ref>(June 5, 2007). "[https://web.archive.org/web/20121120182228/http://www.smashbros.com/en_uk/items/mball/mball01.html What Are Poké Balls?]" ''Smash Bros. DOJO!!'' (Archived link)</ref>
 
====Trophy information====
''"A Goldfish Pokémon. In contrast to its elegant appearance, it has a wild temperament, and its attack with its horn is severe. Among the techniques it can master, {{m|Horn Drill}} is especially reliable. It evolves into Seaking, but if raised without evolving, it can learn the powerful {{type|Bug}} {{m|Megahorn}}. There are male and female Goldeen--the male's horn is longer."''
 
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U]]===

Goldeen will sometimes appear from a Poké Ball or even a Master Ball. As in the previous games, it uses Splash when released, having no effect on the battle.
 
Goldeen also appears as a trophy in both versions of the game.
 
====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''This Water-type Pokémon sports a fancy horn on its head. An excellent swimmer, it can literally swim up waterfalls. In the world of Pokémon, this elegant Pokémon has a variety of effective moves in battle. In Smash Bros., however, all it can use is an ineffective Splash attack.''
 
'''PAL''': ''A Water-type Pokémon with a distinctive horn. Thanks to its powerful fins, Goldeen can swim comfortably through the most torrential waters and even up waterfalls. It's known for both its strength and grace. That said, don't expect it to make a big splash in this game - just a little one when it uses Splash... It's super ineffective!''
 
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
Goldeen returns as a Poké Ball summon, retaining the same behavior as before.

===Origin===
===Origin===
Goldeen is based on a {{wp|goldfish}}. The horn part may be based on Matsya, an avatar that the hindu god {{wp|Vishnu}} assumed, which is sometimes depicted as a fish with a horn.
Goldeen seems to be based on the {{wp|Tosakin}} (curly fantail) breed of {{wp|goldfish}} due to its flat tail and red-and-white scales. It might also be inspired by the  {{wp|Kōhaku (fish)|Kōhaku}} variety of {{wp|koi}} fish. Its billowing tail and prominent lips and eyelids give it a feminine appearance reminiscent of a {{wp|Queen regnant|queen}} wearing a dress and makeup. This royal theme may come from the Japanese word for goldfish which is 金魚 ''Kingyo''. Its horn may be a reference to {{wp|Matsya}}, a giant horned fish that is one of the avatars assumed by the Hindu deity {{wp|Vishnu}}.  


====Name origin====

Goldeen may be a combination of ''goldfish'' and ''queen''.  
Goldeen may be a combination of ''goldfish'' or ''golden'' and ''queen''.


Tosakinto is derived from とさきん ''tosakin'', a kind of goldfish.
Tosakinto may be derived from 土佐金 ''{{wp|tosakin}}'' (curly fantail goldfish), a distinctive breed of goldfish.

Goldeen (Japanese: トサキント Tosakinto) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

It evolves into Seaking starting at level 33.

Biology

Goldeen is a white piscine Pokémon with orange markings. It has circular blue eyes with orange lids and prominent pink lips. On its forehead is a large horn, which is larger on a male than on a female. It has a small, wavy dorsal fin surrounded by an orange patch and long pectoral fins with orange markings at the bases. Goldeen's billowing tail fin is orange around the base and turns white toward the edges. Its tail is admired by many for its beauty and similarity to a ballroom dress.

Goldeen has a wild temperament and will use its horn to smash its way to freedom if kept in an aquarium. It competes with others of its kind to determine which has the strongest, thickest horn. Humans swimming near it must exercise caution lest Goldeen rams them. Goldeen is a very common sight in any body of fresh water, including ponds, lakes, and rivers. It can be seen swimming upstream in large schools during the breeding season in spring. Its strong fins allow it to maintain a steady speed of five knots while swimming upstream. It is known as the "Water Dancer" due to its elegant movements in the water. In Generation I, Waterfall was its signature move.

Evolution

Goldeen evolves into Seaking.

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros.

When released from a Poké Ball, Goldeen will use Splash, having no effect on the battle.

Super Smash Bros. Melee

When released from a Poké Ball, Goldeen will use Splash, having no effect on the battle.

Goldeen is also a Pokéfloat. It will appear from the bottom of the screen but quickly drop down to the bottom again, knocking out any character it hits.

Trophy information

These Water-types are often referred to as "water dancers," as their elegant fins make them incredible agile underwater. They can even travel upstream in rapids at a speed of five knots; of course, they're not quite as nimble on dry land. Goldeen's Horn Drill is so strong that it can KO an enemy with one strike if it connects.

Super Smash Bros. Brawl

Goldeen will sometimes be found in a Poké Ball and will use Splash when released. It does nothing to affect the battle. On the official blog, Masahiro Sakurai commented that Goldeen appearing at the most critical of times is in keeping with Murphy's Law.[1]

Trophy information

"A Goldfish Pokémon. In contrast to its elegant appearance, it has a wild temperament, and its attack with its horn is severe. Among the techniques it can master, Horn Drill is especially reliable. It evolves into Seaking, but if raised without evolving, it can learn the powerful Bug-type Megahorn. There are male and female Goldeen--the male's horn is longer."

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U

Goldeen trophy in Super Smash Bros. for 3DS

Goldeen will sometimes appear from a Poké Ball or even a Master Ball. As in the previous games, it uses Splash when released, having no effect on the battle.

Goldeen also appears as a trophy in both versions of the game.

Trophy information

NA: This Water-type Pokémon sports a fancy horn on its head. An excellent swimmer, it can literally swim up waterfalls. In the world of Pokémon, this elegant Pokémon has a variety of effective moves in battle. In Smash Bros., however, all it can use is an ineffective Splash attack.

PAL: A Water-type Pokémon with a distinctive horn. Thanks to its powerful fins, Goldeen can swim comfortably through the most torrential waters and even up waterfalls. It's known for both its strength and grace. That said, don't expect it to make a big splash in this game - just a little one when it uses Splash... It's super ineffective!

Super Smash Bros. Ultimate

Goldeen returns as a Poké Ball summon, retaining the same behavior as before.

Trivia

Gyopin (ギョピン)'s front sprite from the Pokémon Gold and Silver Spaceworld '97 demo.

Origin

Goldeen seems to be based on the Tosakin (curly fantail) breed of goldfish due to its flat tail and red-and-white scales. It might also be inspired by the Kōhaku variety of koi fish. Its billowing tail and prominent lips and eyelids give it a feminine appearance reminiscent of a queen wearing a dress and makeup. This royal theme may come from the Japanese word for goldfish which is 金魚 Kingyo. Its horn may be a reference to Matsya, a giant horned fish that is one of the avatars assumed by the Hindu deity Vishnu.

Name origin

Goldeen may be a combination of goldfish or golden and queen.

Tosakinto may be derived from 土佐金 tosakin (curly fantail goldfish), a distinctive breed of goldfish.
