Pokédex entries

Pokémon Gold

Its dorsal, pectoral and tail fins wave elegantly in water. That is why it is known as the water dancer.

Pokémon Ruby

Goldeen is a very beautiful Pokémon with fins that billow elegantly in water. However, don't let your guard down around this Pokémon - it could ram you powerfully with its horn.

In the springtime, schools of Goldeen can be seen swimming up falls and rivers. It metes out staggering damage with its single horn.

Pokémon FireRed

Its dorsal and pectoral fins are strongly developed like muscles. It can swim at a speed of five knots.
