In the anime

Misty's Poliwhirl evolved into a Politoed in EP247. Misty's Politoed is very cheerful up to the point where it would occasionally lose focus in a battle and start clapping.

A girl who used Pokémon for cheerleading mistook Misty's Politoed for her own in EP249.

May battled against a Politoed in the Wisteria Island Contest in AG160.

In the manga

In the TCG

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Gold / Pokémon LeafGreen
If Poliwag and Poliwhirl hear its echoing cry, they respond by gathering from far and wide.
Pokémon Silver / Pokémon FireRed
Whenever three or more of these get together, they sing in a loud voice that sounds like bellowing.
Pokémon Crystal
When it expands its throat to croak out a tune, nearby Poliwag and Poliwhirl gather immediately.
Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire
The curled hair on Politoed's head is proof of its status as a king. It is said that the longer and more curled the hair, the more respect this Pokémon earns from its peers.
Pokémon Emerald
The curled hair on its head proves its status as a king. It is said that the longer and curlier the hair, the more respect it earns from its peers.
