In the anime
Golduck first appeared in Mewtwo Strikes Back. Golduck was one of the Pokémon that was captured and cloned by Mewtwo.
Golduck's first major role was in EP091. Misty thought that her Psyduck had evolved, but it turned out that the Golduck was just some wild Pokémon that happened to act like Brock.
In EP153, a Golduck was the boyfriend of an Azumarill that Ash's Totodile fell in love with.
A Golduck was owned by a very clever trainer named Katie in AG128. It defeated Ash's Torkoal after Venomoth Disabled Torkoal's Iron Defense attack. In the following episode, Katie's Golduck got defeated by Ash's Corphish, despite being under confusion.
A Golduck belonging to Noland made a cameo in AG135.
A trainer use a Golduck in Fishing Contest, Sumo Contest and Whirl Cup
Golduckes live in Abandoned Ship
