Winona's Pelipper

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

Georgio owns a Pelipper 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.

A Pelipper appeared in DP078.
