In the anime
In The Power of Us, during two simultaneous disasters in Fula City, Toren and his fellow Scientists attempted to create an elixir out of Natural Cure in the Pokémon Research Pavilion.

- In Moving Past Milotic, Crystal's Starmie was revealed to have Natural Cure as its Ability.
- Winona's Altaria and Swablu are revealed to have Natural Cure as their Ability.
- Celebi is revealed to have Natural Cure as its Ability.
Trivia
- In Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon, Natural Cure is mistranslated as Natural Recovery, a direct translation of its Japanese name.
- Due to the user interface displaying how many of the opponent's Pokémon have status conditions, even though Natural Cure does not have an activation message, the user interface will reveal that a Pokémon had Natural Cure the next time the Poké Balls representing the opponent's party are displayed.
- In Generation III, this is when the opponent switches Pokémon.
- In Generation IV, this is both when the opponent switches Pokémon and on the move selection screen.
- From Generation V onward, it is visible on the move selection screen only.
