The helicoidal surfaces with pointwise 1-type or harmonic gauss map in Euclidean $3$-space are studied. The notion of pointwise 1-type Gauss map is a generalization of usual sense of 1-type Gauss map. In particular, we prove that an ordinary helicoid is the only genuine helicoidal surface of polynomial kind with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the first kind and a right cone is the only rational helicoidal surface with pointwise 1-type Gauss map of the second kind. Also, we give a characterization of rational helicoidal surface with harmonic or pointwise 1-type Gauss map.
Keywords: helicoidal surfaces, helicoid, right cone, pointwise 1-type Gauss map
