Pokedex Entries
| Game | Entry |
|---|---|
| LegendsArceus | Soars across the heavens at blinding speed—a magnificent sight! It has a feral disposition. Utmost caution is required if one meets a Garchomp out in the wilds. |
| Diamond | When it folds up its body and extends its wings, it looks like a jet plane. It flies at sonic speed. |
| Pearl | It flies at speeds equal to a jet fighter plane. It never allows its prey to escape. |
| Platinum | It is said that when one runs at high speed, its wings create blades of wind that can fell nearby trees. |
| X | When it folds up its body and extends its wings, it looks like a jet plane. It flies at sonic speed. |
| Y | It flies at speeds equal to a jet fighter plane. It never allows its prey to escape. |
| Sun | It can fly at speeds rivaling jet planes. It dives into flocks of bird Pokémon and gulps the entire flock down whole. |
| Moon | The protuberances on its head serve as sensors. It can even detect distant prey. |
| UltraSun | It flies at the speed of sound while searching for prey, and it has midair battles with Salamence as the two compete for food. |
| UltraMoon | Its fine scales don’t just reduce wind resistance—their sharp edges also cause injury to any opponent who attacks it. |
| Sword | Garchomp makes its home in volcanic mountains. It flies through the sky as fast as a jet airplane, hunting down as much prey as it can. |
| Shield | Garchomp is fast both underground and above. It can bring down prey and return to its den before its body has chilled from being outside. |

| ShiningPearl | It flies at speeds equal to a jet fighter plane. It never allows its prey to escape. |
