'''Koga's Golbat''' (Japanese: '''キョウのゴルバット''' ''Kyō's Golbat'') is [[Koga]]'s main Pokémon in the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}} as well as in the [[Pokémon anime]].

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

Koga's Golbat first made a cameo appearance in ''[[PS014|That Awful Arbok!]]'', alongside his [[Trainer]]. Golbat is later seen in ''[[PS029|Go for the Golbat]]'', where it battled against {{adv|Blue}} and his {{TP|Blue|Scyther}}. Koga used Golbat's magic mirror to taunt Blue, showing him {{adv|Red}} being defeated. After Scyther attempts to slash Koga, Golbat retaliates with a {{m|Razor Wind}}. After Blue defeated Koga at [[Silph Co.]], he stole Golbat to locate {{adv|Professor Oak}}.

In ''[[PS070|Allied by Alakazam!]]'', Blue returned Golbat to his rightful owner on [[Cerise Island]]. At the island, however, Koga and Blue were attacked by [[Agatha]], and both are separated. Golbat ended up with Blue to battle Agatha's Golbat and later her {{p|Arbok}}. After Koga received Golbat again, Koga battled Agatha's Arbok by making use of its {{m|Leech Life}} to suck blood from his body. Koga then told Golbat to spit the blood at Arbok's body, thereby disabling Arbok's ability to change patterns. After knocking out [[Agatha's Gengar]], Blue commanded Golbat to use {{m|Confuse Ray}} to prevent Agatha from escaping into the shadows again.

Golbat later makes a cameo appearance as a flashback in ''[[PS176|The Last Battle X]]'', where it was seen trying to save [[Koga]] from the collapsing Cerise Island.

Koga's Golbat's only appearance was in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]''. During Koga's and {{Ash}}'s rematch, Koga sent out Golbat to battle [[Ash's Charmander]]. Golbat started with a {{m|Wing Attack}}, moving too fast for Charmander to handle. Though initially unable to keep up with Golbat's speed, Charmander was able to fend it off with an {{m|Ember}} attack. Golbat then used a {{m|Screech}} attack, which, while effective, didn't stop Charmander from retaliating with {{m|Flamethrower}}. After initially evading the flames, Golbat was struck by the attack, after which it succumbed to Charmander's {{m|Fire Spin}}, winning Ash the {{badge|Soul}}.

Very little is known about Golbat's personality as it was only used in the second part of Ash's Gym battle with Koga. However, it was proven to be a tough opponent, as Charmander was unable to keep up with its speed when it used Wing Attack, as well as how badly its Screech affected not only Charmander, but everyone in the vicinity (except for Koga). Koga was the only one subjected to Golbat's Screech who seemed completely unfazed by the noise, which suggests that the two have a lot of experience battling together.

Koga's Golbat is featured in [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!]] and  [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]. In the [[Generation II]] games and their [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|remakes]], he uses a {{p|Crobat}} instead.
