Read more ↓Golbat, the Bat Pokémon, is a dual-type Poison/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation I. It is the evolved form of Zubat and evolves into Crobat when leveled up with high friendship. Native to caves, forests, and other dark places across various regions, Golbat is known for its nocturnal habits and its ability to drain the blood of its prey, including other Pokémon and even humans, using its sharp fangs. Its large mouth and four fangs are distinctive features, allowing it to latch onto victims and consume up to 10 ounces of blood in a single feeding. Despite its somewhat menacing reputation, Golbat plays a role in its ecosystem, often preying on Bug-type Pokémon. In the Pokémon anime, Golbat is famously featured as part of Brock's team, evolving from his Zubat and later into Crobat, showcasing its loyalty and strength. Its speed and agility in flight make it a formidable opponent, often seen swooping down on unsuspecting targets. The species' prevalence in caves makes it a common encounter for trainers exploring such environments throughout the games.
