In ''[[EP143|Going Apricorn!]]'', Maizie took Ash and his friends on a tour through the [[Apricorn]]-forested mountains near Azalea Town.

Maizie is being mentored by her grandfather [[Kurt]] and shares a close bond with him.

Her knowledge and respect for [[Apricorn]] [[Poké Ball]]-making was showcased in ''[[EP143|Going Apricorn!]]'', where she helped {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to select ripe Apricorns. In addition to her knowledge on Apricorns, she appears to be environmentally-conscious, and noted that the trees help sustain the Pokémon and mountains.
 
She is well aware of her grandfather's hard work and runs errands on Kurt's behalf to allow him to focus.
