InA Snow Day for Searching!,Goh encounteredCubone while visiting his family. It was surrounded by a group ofMankey, althoughScorbunny gets involved in the battle, his bone is stolen by the Pokémon group. Sad at the loss of the item, Goh tried to console him, and soon after that Goh decided to use his Pokémon to find the missing bone. After meeting the Mankey again and seeing that they also lost the bone, another search began, where Goh'sButterfree found aFearow who knew the location of the lost item. Towards the end of the day, Cubone, Goh, and Ash discovered that it was on the bottom of a lake and, thanks toGoh's Dewgong, they succeeded to recover it. Goh returned the bone to Cubone and, after meeting Goh's parents, the Pokémon allowed itself to be caught by him. At Goh's house, Cubone was seen on the lap of hisTrainer and having fun with the other Pokémon in the apartment.
InPanic in the Park!, it was revealed that Cubone befriendedGoh's Skwovet. The two calledGolurk to stop the other Pokémon from fighting during a food shortage. When Golurk's seal fell off and it went berserk, Cubone helped put the seal back on. It then helped protect theCascoon from the flood caused by Golurk's rampage, allowing them to evolve intoDustox.
Cubone is shown to become very upset when it loses its bone, as seen inA Snow Day for Searching! when it was taken by a group of Mankey. This caused it to cry out loud and only calmed down once its bone was retrieved. This caused Cubone to be thankful, as seen when it asked to joinGoh's team after he helped retrieve it.
