====={{DL|Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby and Sapphire series)|Groudon|Groudon (''Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire'')}}=====
Groudon made its physical main series debut in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''. [[Team Aqua]] had captured Groudon but did not have [[Blue Orb|the correct orb]] to control it, so they planned to make a trade with [[Team Magma]], who had captured Kyogre.

It and its teammates engaged in a battle against the {{p|Latios}}, {{p|Latias}}, and {{Shiny}} {{p|Rayquaza}} summoned to protect the real Hoopa in [[Dahara City]].

{{main|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)#Groudon|Groudon (Adventures)}}
Groudon's first appearance was in ''[[PS214|Assaulted by Pelipper I]]''. Awakening Groudon was the main mission of [[Team Magma]], so they could expand the land. Groudon was finally awakened when Team Magma and [[Team Aqua]] formed a temporary truce to be able to go underwater. [[Wallace]], [[Brawly]], and [[Roxanne]] tried to stop the Pokémon's advance but failed due to the interventions of [[Blaise]], [[Courtney]], and [[Tabitha]]. Eventually, it reaches its destination: [[Sootopolis City]], to battle {{p|Kyogre}}, which it did for days on end until {{adv|Ruby}}, with the aid of a reformed Courtney and his own, {{p|Rayquaza}}-controlling [[Norman|father]], managed to quell it. Afterwards, it cut its ties with Kyogre and went to resume its slumber at the bottom of [[Mt. Chimney]]. It is shown afterwards that this restored the volcanic activities that Team Aqua had earlier annulled. In the {{MangaArc|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, Blaise and {{adv|Amber}} tricked {{p|Hoopa}} into summoning Groudon and Kyogre from their resting places, with [[Maxie]] and [[Archie]] making them both undergo [[Primal Reversion]] so that they could help defend the planet from the [[Grand Meteor Delta|giant meteoroid]] that was due to impact it in several days.

[[File:Groudon SSBB.png|thumb|230px|Groudon in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
Groudon is obtainable as a {{i|Poké Ball}} Pokémon. It uses {{m|Overheat}} to immolate itself in a fiery aura, causing anyone (except the summoner) who comes into contact with it to be knocked back and receive damage, similar to the attack of {{p|Moltres}}, though it lasts longer. Due to its tremendous size, it takes up a lot of the stage, making its attack almost inescapable. However, Groudon's attack is significantly weaker than Moltres', as it deals less knockback and damage; making it very hard to directly KO an opponent until they reach a very high damage percentage.
====Trophy information====
''"A Continent Pokémon. In ancient times, it brought down droughts to save people who had suffered from floods. It is normally found in the profound depths of the earth, where it slumbers in magma. With a mighty roar, it uses {{m|Earthquake}} to mow down enemies. In battle, it summons sunlight to bathe the area. It once had an epic battle with {{p|Kyogre}}."''
===[[Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U|Super Smash Bros. for Wii U]]===
Groudon appears as a trophy.
====Trophy information====
'''NA''': ''Groudon is called the Continent Pokémon, and that's not just because it lives on them. Legend has it that Groudon actually created the continents. It has a rivalry with Kyogre, said to have created the oceans, and they apparently had an epic battle long ago. Perhaps our world was born from this great battle between land and sea.''
'''PAL''': ''Groudon is called the Continent Pokémon, and that's not just because it lives on them. Legend has it that Groudon actually created the continents. It has a rivalry with Kyogre, said to have created the oceans, and they apparently had an epic battle long ago. Perhaps it was this battle of land and sea that created the world as we know it.''
===[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]===
