In the games

• Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire: Pelliper perches in the Sapphire Field and will stand upright for a while if the ball hits the button in front of it. During this time, Pelliper will swallow the ball in its beak if the ball goes into the coin loop. It will then either drop the ball over the Seedot bumpers or send the player to the Sealeo Bonus Field.
• Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: The Post Office in Pokémon Square is run by a group of Pelipper. The Pelipper can also be seen delivering the mail.

In the anime

In You Said a Mouthful, a Pokémon Trainer named Antony had a Pelipper that he used to challenge other trainers to battle it in an unofficial gym. Antony was a cheater because he stuffed a bunch of Pokéballs with small Pokémon in them into the Pelipper's bill.

Georgio owns a Pelliper that he used to send a letter to Misty and chase Butch and Cassidy in A Date With Delcatty.

In Sky High Gym Battle, Winona used a Pelipper against Ash during the Gym Battle. This Pelipper had a unique way handling its weakness to Electrical attacks. It strikes the ground with Steel Wing, which would cause any Electric attack pass through it into the ground.
