In the manga
A Dusclops was first seen in Wally's attempt to scale the Sky Pillar to be accepted into Norman's tutelage. It nearly sucked both Wally and Treecko he rescued, but the Pokémon evolved and defeated it with a Leaf Blade.
Another Dusclops joins Emerald's team. This Dusclops had been illegally added to the Battle Pike and Emerald determined that it came from Mt. Pyre. He calmed it and took it following the fight at the Artisan Cave.

Game data
NPC appearances
- Pokémon Pinball: Ruby and Sapphire: Dusclops has its own mini-game on the Sapphire Table, which can be accessed the first time the three Poké Balls in the middle of the table are lit up. Dusclops will not appear until 20 Duskull have been hit. After that, Dusclops must be hit five times to win. However, it will suck up the ball for a brief period if attacked from the front so it must be hit from behind or while it is moving.
