Swellow was used again against [[Juan]] in ''[[AG111|Eight Ain't Enough]]'' where it battled Juan's {{p|Whiscash}}, where it started on the back foot after being {{m|Tickle}}d and then hit by Hyper Beam. However, Swellow recovered and knocked Whiscash into the air with Aerial Ace. In midair it was able to dodge Hyper Beam and it then smashed Whiscash back into the water with Quick Attack. Just before Whiscash hit the water, Swellow landed an Aerial Ace and knocked Whiscash out. Juan complimented Swellow's ability to meld its attacks together and called upon his final Pokémon, {{p|Milotic}}. Swellow, though tired, managed to dodge Hydro Pump and strike Milotic with Aerial Ace, before using Double Team to avoid an Iron Tail. However, Milotic used {{m|Twister}} to sweep up all the copies and slam Swellow against the ceiling, knocking it out.

In the [[Ever Grande Conference]], Swellow battled [[Katie]]  in ''[[AG129|A Judgment Brawl]]''. It managed to defeat her powerful {{p|Venomoth}}, despite having Peck {{m|Disable}}d, as it smashed Venomoth towards the water with Aerial Ace, then used Quick Attack to push through its last resort Confusion and leave it unable to battle. It then fought Katie's {{p|Scizor}}. Disable had worn off and Swellow used Peck, only for Scizor to use a Double Team/{{m|Metal Claw}} combination to intimidate Swellow with numerous attackers bearing down. Swellow used its own Double Team to counter, and then used Aerial Ace. Scizor threw away the clones to use {{m|Hidden Power}}, but Swellow dodged the attacks and dashed forward with Quick Attack. Scizor charged forward with Metal Claw, but Swellow dodged at the last second and took Scizor out. Katie's {{p|Walrein}} was much more robust, easily shrugging off Swellow's attacks and then freezing Swellow's wings with {{m|Ice Beam}}. After dodging Swellow's attacks underwater, Walrein struck with another Ice Beam and took Swellow out of the fight.

Then in ''[[AG130|Choose It or Lose It!]]'', it battled [[Morrison]]'s {{p|Gligar}}, where it drew after a long battle in the sky.
Then in ''[[AG130|Choose It or Lose It!]]'', it battled [[Morrison]]'s {{p|Gligar}}, using Double Team to evade a one-hit knockout from {{m|Guillotine}}. Swellow was able to dodge Iron Tail, but was hit by Hidden Power and sent plummeting to the ground. Swellow recovered and after a trio of clashes between Aerial Ace and {{m|Steel Wing}}, both Swellow and Gligar were knocked out.
 
In Ash's battle with {{ho|Tyson}} in ''[[AG131|At the End of the Fray]]'', Swellow battled masterfully and was one of Ash's biggest assets. Just as it struggled against Machop at the beginning of the journey, Swellow was caught and badly hurt by Tyson's {{p|Hariyama}}'s {{m|Seismic Toss}}. However, this time Swellow had Aerial Ace in its arsenal, and was able to dodge aside and land a powerful blow on Hariyama's chest, taking it out. It also battled {{p|Donphan}}, managing to beat back a {{m|Sandstorm}} but was struck by Donphan's {{m|Rollout}}. Donphan managed to use Rollout to propel itself off rocks and into the air, causing damage to Swellow, until Swellow managed to catch Donphan with its feet and drop it, knocking it out. However, it was heavily disadvantaged against {{p|Metagross}}, who managed to halt it in midair with Psychic. Swellow blasted forward and used Quick Attack to crack Metagross' armour, but takes recoil from the impact and is finished off with a Hyper Beam.


In Ash's final battle in the tournament, in the episode ''[[AG131|At the End of the Fray]]'', Swellow battled powerfully against {{Ho|Tyson}}'s {{p|Hariyama}} and {{p|Donphan}}, being able to stop Donphan's {{m|Rollout}} attack with its talons, lift it in to the air and throw it across the battlefield. Like in Ash's battle with Katie, Swellow defeated two Pokémon and proved itself to be one of Ash's most powerful Pokémon. It finally lost to Tyson's {{p|Metagross}} but not until after it had done the damage it needed to do for Pikachu to defeat it later.
