===Special abilities===
Its dorsal and pectoral fins are quite strong, allowing it to maintain a steady speed of five knots while swimming upstream.

Goldeen's large and dangerous horn is its main weapon. Although not known as an aggressive Pokémon, people swimming in waters that Goldeen are known to inhabit should be wary of being rammed.
