![]() ![]() It also appeared in the remake Mewtwo Strikes Back-Evolution, where the exact same thing happened to it. Golduck debuted in Mewtwo Strikes Back, under the ownership of Fergus. Old tales claim Golduck punish those who defile their rivers by dragging them in and taking them away. The prey is disabled, captured, and then brought to shore for consumption. Golduck can typically be seen swimming in lakes, where it hunts fish. As seen in the manga, Golduck has the ability to give knowledge to its Trainer and fellow Pokémon through telepathy. In the past, this Pokémon was overhunted due to the belief that the gem granted people supernatural powers. The gem on its forehead glows when it uses its psychic powers, and occasionally when it swims at full speed. Even rough seas do not hamper this Pokémon's swimming abilities, and it will sometimes rescue people from shipwrecks. Golduck is a fast swimmer, being capable of out-swimming even the most athletic of humans because of its webbed appendages. Golduck is sometimes mistaken for the Japanese monster, and physical inspiration for Golduck, the Kappa due to its general humanoid shape, beak, and webbed hands and feet. Its body is especially adapted to have a hydrodynamic shape, and it has a long tail that it uses as a rudder to steer. Its hands and feet all have three clawed digits with cream-colored webbing in-between. It has red eyes, a cream-colored beak, a red gem in the center of its forehead, and four spikes on the back of its head. Golduck is a blue, bipedal, duck, or platypus-like Pokémon. Golduck using telepathy in Pokémon Adventures It evolves from Psyduck starting at level 33. Golduck ( Japanese: ゴルダック Golduck) is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I. Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl.There were SO many good Psyduck pictures I HAD to use them all. It has to depend on Hidden Power for coverage though. It all works in the end, but it’s terribly confusing.Įh. What Psyduck is supposed to be is kind of unclear? It’s like a yellow platypus, but then what’s with the three strands of hair on its head? It’s got no feathers, or wings, so how is it a duck? Just because it’s yellow, and has webbed feet? I don’t know. Psyduck’s cuteness also loses it some points. It’s cute as a button, but it’s not even trying to. You’ll want to be Modest and pump your Special Attack stat up in order to maximize your damage output. Ice Beam, Signal Beam, Psychic, Psyshock, or Hidden Power Fire / Grass are all good options for the rest of your moveset. Anyway, give Psyduck a Choice Scarf, and have it spam Hydro Pump. Sorry, I just had to do so much research on this because I’d never been completely sure of any differences before. ![]() Air Lock, on the other hand, removes the weather entirely, so it has to be re-set up if Rayquaza leaves the field. If a Cloud Nine Pokemon leaves the field, then the effects of weather resume, of course. Solarbeam will take 2 turns to charge even in the Sun, Water type moves won’t be boosted by Rain, and abilities like Rain Dish, Swift Swim, and Dry Skin won’t activate with a Cloud Nine Pokemon on the field. Air Lock (A similar ability that only Rayquaza can get) is functionally identical to Cloud Nine. If you’re not going to set up rain, then just go ahead and continue.Ĭhoice Scarf! Psyduck gets access to a rare ability in Cloud Nine, which negates the effects of weather, but doesn’t remove the weather itself (Only Air Lock can do that.) This can be a bit confusing, so I’ll try and explain it far better than the games ever did.Ĭloud Nine blocks anything that is affected by weather. Psyduck gets access to Swift Swim, but there is no Drizzle Pokemon allowed in Little Cup! If you want to set up rain yourself, basically give it a Life Orb, and use the same set below. But when it’s all together, it just works. Everything about it should be kinda weird, off-putting, or even ugly. It’s definitely cute, but I’m not sure why. Either way, Psyduck is a cute pink color, has three strands of black hair coming out the top of its head like Homer Simpson, and a short tail. It’s hard to explain really, because Psyduck’s body shape and bill are clearly platypus-esque, but platypi are typically called “Duck-Billed Platypus”, so it’s not like the bill couldn’t be a duck either? I don’t know. Psyduck is a fat yellow duck who is also probably part platypus. Click here to get to his page! Again, tremendous thanks to the man for showing his support, and reminder that if you’re an artist and want a picture of your favorite Pokemon on the blog drawn by yourself, I’m more than willing to use it!Īnyway, back to our regularly scheduled entry.
