Green Apricorns appeared in Going Apricorn!, where Kurt sent Ash, Misty, and Brock to harvest some Apricorns. However, they were attacked by a group of Beedrill before they could pick any Apricorns from the tree.

Trivia

  • In Generation IV, Green Apricorns are by far the most common, appearing in eight places.
  • In Japanese, the Green Apricorn is the only Apricorn for which the color in its name is abbreviated, using the abbreviated form みど mido rather than みどり midori.
