Golduck
Plan this partner in PokéBonk
This analysis describes the Psyduck League partner and its evolution line, not necessarily the current form alone.
Extra HP and the headache pulse give Psyduck a workable control plan, and Golduck improves that loop with healing. The Water/Psychic kit offers useful mixed coverage once developed.
Trade-off: Soak is a demanding opener, and taking damage to charge headache is a poor default strategy.
Passive: Headache
Ultimate progression: Explosive Headache / Mind Geyser
Curated kit: Soak (Lv. 1) · Zen Headbutt (Lv. 2) · Aqua Tail (Lv. 4) · Psyshock (Lv. 7)
Later moves become eligible offers; they are not automatically equipped.
League analysis and kit: v0.8.25, checked October 23, 2026. Individual unlock checklists and linked builds carry their own source dates.
