Read more ↓Golduck is a Water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I, evolving from Psyduck starting at level 33. Known as the Duck Pokémon, its sleek, powerful physique contrasts with its pre-evolution's perpetual headache. Golduck is often depicted as a graceful and swift swimmer, capable of outmaneuvering even Olympic athletes in water. Its natural habitat includes freshwater lakes, rivers, and ponds, where it hunts for fish and other aquatic prey. In the wild, Golduck is a solitary creature, preferring to hone its psychic abilities and swimming prowess in quiet waters. Its elegant swimming style and occasional use of psychic powers have led to it being mistaken for the mythical Japanese creature, the Kappa, a mischievous water imp. In the Pokémon games, Golduck is a solid choice for a Water-type, offering a good balance of Special Attack and Speed. In the anime, it has made several appearances, often showcasing its powerful psychic abilities and calm demeanor. Golduck's evolution from the often-confused Psyduck makes its elegant and capable nature even more striking, solidifying its place as a memorable and distinct Pokémon from the Kanto region.
