In the anime
A Snubbull ran away from its home and followed Team Rocket (and by extension, Ash himself) around the Johto region for a short while. She evolved into Granbull in The Trouble with Snubbull and returned to her owner, Madame Muchmoney.
A Granbull also appeared in the opening of the movie, Spell of the Unown under the ownership of a trainer named Lisa.
Cassidy's Granbull debuted in DP065.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Special manga
A Granbull appeared in Volume 8, where it was stealing Pokémon to get attention as its jaw was dislocated. When Gold accidentally knocks its jaw into relocation, it happily returns all the Pokémon it took.
Blue's Snubbull evolved in Granbull in the Sevii Islands.

- Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Granbull hangs around Pokémon Square. Granbull evolved from Snubbull without realizing what was happening, though it enjoyed its new appearance after getting over the initial shock. This event alerted the rest of the characters that evolution was now possible.
