When they encountered a rock in the way, Sliggoo tried to destroy it by ramming into it. Though it initally failed, together with Wartortle and Raichu it was able to destroy the rock. Just before Pikachu was about to be captured by Team Rocket's mecha, Sliggoo rammed into the mecha destroying it and rescuing Pikachu. A {{m|Shadow Ball}} launched by [[Jessie]]'s {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}} then accidentally hit the remains of the mecha. This started a fire, which surrounded Ash, Serena, and Pikachu. Then Sliggoo remembered how, when it was a Goomy, there were a group of Pokémon trapped in a similar situation. Bolstered by the memory, Sliggoo used Rain Dance to protect its {{pkmn|Trainer}} and put out the fire, and evolved into {{p|Goodra}} in the process. It then used its new move, {{m|Dragon Pulse}} to send Team Rocket blasting off. Later on, it and Pikachu participated in the postponed Double Battle against Tierno's Wartortle and Raichu. As Pikachu struggled against Wartortle, Goodra used Bide to counter Raichu's {{m|Charge Beam}} and {{m|Focus Blast}} and hit Wartortle and Raichu after Pikachu used Iron Tail to block a countering {{m|Hydro Pump}}. After Goodra and Pikachu blocked another attack by Wartortle and Raichu, they defeated them with a Thunderbolt and Dragon Pulse, winning Ash the battle.

In [[XY067]], Goodra was the second Pokémon Ash sent out during his [[Lumiose Gym]] battle against Clemont, at first facing [[Clemont's Heliolisk]]. Due to Heliolisk's amazing speed, it was able to avoid Goodra's Dragon Pulse and get closer, first blinding it with {{m|Flash}} and then striking it with a super-effective {{m|Dragon Tail}}. After avoiding a second Dragon Pulse, Heliolisk {{status|paralysis|paralyzed}} Goodra with {{m|Thunder Wave}}, prompting Ash to recall it. Later, Ash sent Goodra out as his final Pokémon against Clemont's final Pokémon, {{TP|Clemont|Luxray}}. Coming up with a way to get rid of Luxray's {{m|Electric Terrain}}, Ash told Goodra to use Rain Dance. The [[rain]] not only caused the electricity to disappear from the battlefield, but also activated Goodra's [[Ability]], {{a|Hydration}}, curing it from its paralysis. After having Goodra send Luxray's {{m|Swift}} back at it with its tail, Ash told Goodra to use Bide. Even though Clemont did his best to defeat Goodra before Bide would be completed, Goodra was able to endure Luxray's attacks and unleash the energy gathered by Bide, defeating Luxray and earning Ash the {{badge|Voltage}}.
In [[XY067]], Ash used Goodra as his second Pokémon in his [[Lumiose Gym]] Battle against Clemont. It went up against {{TP|Clemont|Heliolisk}}. Goodra used Dragon Pulse which was blocked, Heliolisk then used its speed to confuse Goodra. Heliolisk then used {{m|Flash}} blinding Goodra. Whilst blind, Goodra took major damage from a super-effective {{m|Dragon Tail}}, but remained standing. Goodra used Dragon Pulse, but Heliolisk used its agility to dodge the attack, confuse Goodra and hit it with {{m|Thunder Wave}}, {{status|Paralysis|paralysing}} Goodra. Ash then recalled Goodra.
