In ''[[XY069|Defending the Homeland!]]'', Ash and his friends came across {{kal|Kenzo}} the caretaker of Goodra's homeland. Goodra became hesitant to return to its home, remembering being attacked by the Army of {{type|Bug}} Pokémon led by a {{DL|Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime#Florges|Blue Flower Florges}} and being separated from its friend {{p|Wooper}}. However, Wooper and many other members of Goodra's old home encountered Goodra instead, allowing them to reunite. When the Pokémon noted that Florges and her Bug Army were attacking more Pokémon, Goodra decided to intervene, motivating the other Pokémon to fight back and draw Florges out. Despite being reminded to getting attacked by Florges when it was a Goomy, Goodra managed to overcome its fear and fight. After using {{m|Dragon Pulse}} to block Florges's {{m|Petal Blizzard}}, Goodra tried hitting Florges with its tail, which Florges managed to dodge. Florges then used {{m|Grassy Terrain}} to power-up its {{type|Grass}} attacks and followed up by an enhanced {{m|Solar Beam}}. Goodra blocked this attack too using Dragon Pulse, but due to Grassy Field several other Solar Beams were launched from flowers harming Wooper and the other Pokémon. Forced to defend its fellow Pokémon Goodra used its body to shield the others from another Solar Beam and a super-effective {{m|Moonblast}}, heavily damaging it. As Florges was about to finish Goodra off with another Moonblast, Goodra managed to stand up thanks to Ash's encouragement learning {{m|Ice Beam}} in the process. Goodra's Ice Beam managed to overpower Florges's Moonblast defeating her. Unfortunately in the celebrations, Goodra got knocked out by a {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{m|Psybeam}} (coming from Jessie's Pumpkaboo and James's Inkay that are hidden from view) forcing both sides to retreat and recuperate. While Goodra slept, Pikachu, Dedenne and Wooper were abducted by an {{p|Ariados}} under the orders of Florges, who had been blackmailed by {{TRT}}.

In [[XY070]], although injured, with assistance from Serena and Kenzo, it was able to get up to go after Pikachu, Dedenne and Wooper, after they were captured. When {{AP|Frogadier}} and Fletchinder were defeated by Florges's {{type|Bug}} army. Goodra and the other chase after the Bug-type Pokémon. However {{p|Ariados}} and {{p|Pinsir}} stood in their way, although Ash and Bonnie tried to plead with them and explain that it is Team Rocket's doing, they attacked them. As a result, Clemont sent out Chespin and {{TP|Clemont|Bunnelby}} while Serena sent out {{TP|Serena|Braixen}} to battle them. This distracted them enough to allow Ash, Bonnie and Goodra to pass through. After reaching Florges's hideout, they were confronted by Florges and two {{p|Seviper}}, and discovered Florges was holding a weak {{p|Floette}}. Team Rocket then drains the mystical water inside the cave before revealing themselves along with the captured Pokémon, also revealing Florges's true motives about saving Floette and betraying her. Upon hearing this, Goodra and the others came to realize that Florges wasn't as malicious as they believed she was and that her only motive was saving Floette. After they escape, Goodra and the others chased after them. After they escaped on their mecha, Goodra launches Ash onto the mecha, whilst Florges uses a {{p|Yanmega}} and Goodra launches itself using Dragon Pulse. There, Goodra damages the mecha, allowing the three to enter. Then they found Pikachu, Dedenne and Wooper. Goodra held open a door to allow them to reach the captured Pokémon, but Team Rocket battled them where Goodra took damage trying to protect Florges. Florges and Goodra launched a dual Ice Beam and Solar Beam attack which overpowered Inkay's Psybeam and Pumpkaboo's Dark Pulse, sending Team Rocket blasting off. This decompressed the mecha, causing it to fall, however everyone was able to escape due to the combined efforts of both the Bug-type Pokémon and the Pokémon originally from Goodra's homeland. Goodra then uses Rain Dance, restoring the mystical water and saving Floette. With Floette nursed back to health, Florges and Goodra made a truce and Florges was forgiven for all the trouble she caused. Ash then decides that Goodra should stay behind at its homeland when he saw Goodra happy with its friends and has a tearful goodbye to Ash, hoping to meet again someday.
