{{iw|bulbapedia|Splash|move}} is a Normal-type move: while being part of the starting moveset of several Pokémon, it has no effect whatsoever. It is most commonly associated with {{pkmn|Magikarp}} and, in contrast with its ''Smash'' depiction, Goldeen is not able to learn it in any game. However, the exact usage of it in ''Smash'' is likely a reference to {{s|bulbapedia|Misty's Goldeen}} from the anime, who was notable for being completely useless on land, and would only be able to flop around similarly to the Goldeen in ''Smash'' unless in the water. | {{iw|bulbapedia|Splash|move}} is a Normal-type move: while being part of the starting moveset of several Pokémon, it has no effect whatsoever.

Early in ''Melee'' | Early in ''Melee's'' lifespan, rumours claimed that Goldeen could sometimes activate {{iw|bulbapedia|Horn Drill|move}} upon being summoned from a Poké Ball, leading to a [[one-hit KO]]. This was later disproven due to advances in hacking, as well as a general lack of proof. | ||

Goldeen returns in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', keeping its lack of function from the previous installments. It can also be summoned from the newly added [[Master Ball]] item, which otherwise contains only rare or legendary Pokémon. This Master Ball variant behaves exactly the same as the regular version, and was added as a joke. | Goldeen returns in ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', keeping its lack of function from the previous installments.
