Golbat (Japanese: ゴルバット Golbat, German: Golbat, French: Nosferalto, Korean: 골뱃 Golbes) is a Poison/Flying-type Pokémon. It is a very common sight in many caves later on in all handheld Pokémon RPGs.

Golbat has the ability Inner Focus, which prevents flinching.

Golbat evolves from Zubat starting at Level 22, then into Crobat when it grows a level and its Tameness is 220 or above.
