Gogoat was first seen with its Trainer when Ramos met Ash and his friends. It arrived after Clemont accidentally destroyed Ramos's gate. Later, it was seen in the city when the snowstorm began. It used Vine Whip to rescue Ash after he was trying to calm down an angry Vanillish and Vanilluxe who caused the snowstorm, whom attacked him. After they and a Vanillite were captured by Team Rocket's mecha, Gogoat used Leech Seed to disable the fans. Gogoat then used its powerful attacks to defeat the mecha, along with Luxio, Fennekin, Pikachu, and Frogadier.
Gogoat was also the last Pokémon Ramos used during Ash's Coumarine Gym battle, sending it out to face Ash's Frogadier. During the battle, Gogoat demonstrated its strong Grass-type attacks, which were almost enough to defeat Frogadier, until Ash recalled a lesson Ramos had taught him about gardening, and used it to come up with a winning strategy, allowing Frogadier to eventually defeat Gogoat with a Water Pulse.
It appeared again in Under the Pledging Tree! where Ramos rode on it. During a Team Rocket attack, Ramos attempted to use it to battle Team Rocket but Ash battled the trio instead.
It appeared again in Under the Pledging Tree!. It appeared again in Rocking Kalos Defenses! and Forming a More Perfect Union!, where it helped to destroy the Megalith Zygarde.
It appeared again in Till We Compete Again!, during a flashback.
