As a Goomy, it was a very friendly Pokémon, as it liked to show its affection to others by nibbling on their ears. Even after it had become a Goodra, it maintained its affection, hugging Ash shortly after evolving. It had also proven to be a capable fighter, but was initially scared until it decided to help Ash. Goomy was easily frightened and was afraid of {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon such as {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}} | As a Goomy, it was a very friendly Pokémon, as it liked to show its affection to others by nibbling on their ears. Even after it had become a Goodra, it maintained its affection, hugging Ash shortly after evolving. It had also proven to be a capable fighter, but was initially scared until it decided to help Ash. Goomy was easily frightened and was afraid of {{type|Fairy}} Pokémon such as {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}} because {{type|Dragon}} Pokémon are weak against Fairy-type Pokémon. In ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]'', after Dedenne was protecting it from Team Rocket, Goomy was pleased and it was no longer afraid of Dedenne. It's also afraid of {{type|Bug}} Pokémon such as {{p|Ariados}} as they destroyed Goomy's original home. When depressed or insulted, Goomy tended to use Rain Dance on the offender, as seen when it used the move on {{an|Serena}} for calling it icky, and in ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]'' where it used the move on [[Jessie]]. It views Pikachu as a role model, and wants to become strong like him and his Trainer. | ||
As shown in ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'', Goomy had a slimy body, which can help reflect attacks without it taking damage or it can put slime on others, making them slimy, as shown when it used this on {{AP|Pikachu}} to help him escape from {{TRT}}'s cage. It also used to dry out easily causing it to become weak or tired, but could stop it by absorbing water. | As shown in ''[[XY055|A Slippery Encounter!]]'', Goomy had a slimy body, which can help reflect attacks without it taking damage or it can put slime on others, making them slimy, as shown when it used this on {{AP|Pikachu}} to help him escape from {{TRT}}'s cage.

In the beginning, whenever it encountered dangerous situations, it tended to flashback to the scene of Bug-type Pokémon attacking its home, and would freeze from the shock. However, it is capable of overcoming its fears to help its friends, as seen in its debut episode and ''[[XY056|One for the Goomy!]]''. It also leads it to sympathize with others, as seen in ''[[XY061|An Oasis of Hope!]]'', where it became determined to help a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Spoink}}, who had also been driven away from its home by a wild {{p|Grumpig}}. After evolving, some signs of trauma were still present in Sliggoo. In ''[[XY065|Good Friends, Great Training!]]'', an explosion from one of [[Team Rocket's mechas]] caused a fire that reminded it of a group of stranded, young Pokémon surrounded by the fires of the invasion. However, the memory lead Sliggoo to take action, using Rain Dance to put out the flames, and trigger its evolution. | ||
After evolving, Goodra's power and endurance became substantially higher, as it was not only able to deal large amounts of damage, but take hits as well without being knocked out, such as Team Rocket's Pumpkaboo's Dark Pulse and Inkay's Psybeam, Tierno's Raichu's Charge Beam and Focus Blast, and Clemont's Luxray's Thunder Fang, Wild Charge, and Swift. This endurance was usually followed up with a Bide attack against the opponents. Goodra grew into a brave, strong, and kind Pokémon under Ash's care; in ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'', Goodra completely overcame its fear of Bug-types to defend its homeland against {{p|Florges}}'s Bug-type army. Although it still faltered for a moment after seeing the Blue Flower Florges, it successfully defended itself with encouragement from Ash and {{ashfr}}. | After evolving, Goodra's power and endurance became substantially higher, as it was not only able to deal large amounts of damage, but take hits as well without being knocked out, such as Team Rocket's Pumpkaboo's Dark Pulse and Inkay's Psybeam, Tierno's Raichu's Charge Beam and Focus Blast, and Clemont's Luxray's Thunder Fang, Wild Charge, and Swift.
