Alder made his debut in ''[[BW031|Ash and Trip's Third Battle!]]'' during a flashback of [[Trip]]'s childhood. He was battling a Trainer in the middle of town with his {{p|Bouffalant}} as Trip spectated in awe. After the battle, the {{pkmn|Champion}} approached the child and allowed him to pet and feed Bouffalant. He asked Trip what his goal was, which he replied was to be Champion. Impressed, Alder inspired Trip to train hard when he got older, and that he would be waiting to challenge Trip someday. Trip sealed the promise with a confident handshake. | Alder made his debut in ''[[BW031|Ash and Trip's Third Battle!]]'' during a flashback of [[Trip]]'s childhood.

He appeared in ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'' on {{rt|5|unova}}. {{Ash}} and Trip met him and wanted both to battle with him. There, he referred to them as '''Ashton''' (Japanese: '''サンタロ''' ''Santaro'') and '''Tristan''' (Japanese: '''シュータロ''' ''Shootaro''), respectively. He wished to battle both of them in a two-on-one battle, but Trip refused to battle alongside Ash, so Alder settled for battling them one at a time. Trip allowed Ash to go first thinking being quickly defeated by the Champion would do him good. During the battle, Alder just stood calm and let his Bouffalant take multiple attacks from [[Ash's Pikachu]]. Ash and {{Ashfr}} then realized that Alder was actually sleeping while standing up. Trip woke Alder, while Bouffalant expressed its embarrassment and disappointment in its Trainer. After explaining why he was asleep, Alder commanded Bouffalant to use {{m|Head Charge}}, but Bouffalant was still angry with Alder and slow to respond. In order to persuade Bouffalant to quit wasting time and attack, Alder slapped its rump, sending it charging. Bouffalant stampeded towards Pikachu, but stopped quickly and made a U-turn and attacked Alder instead. | He appeared in ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'' on {{rt|5|unova}}. {{Ash}} and Trip met him and wanted both to battle with him.

Bouffalant stampeded towards Pikachu, but stopped quickly and made a U-turn and attacked Alder instead. Afterwards, much to Trip's disappointment, and despite his Bouffalant still being fit to battle, Alder conceded defeat to Ash and decided he was finished battling for the day. Trip then questioned Alder about the advice he was given as a small child. Alder seemed to be confused by this, and then contradicted the original advice he gave Trip by stating that becoming the strongest was not the most important part of battling. Trip then left in anger, telling Ash he would continue on the path he believes in. | ||
Later, Alder stopped a {{p|Gigalith}} that was on a rampage with his bare hands, removed a nail from its foot that had been causing it pain and fed it some minerals, making it so thankful that it even saved [[Officer Jenny]] from being crushed under a falling monument. | Later, Alder stopped a {{p|Gigalith}} that was on a rampage with his bare hands, removed a nail from its foot that had been causing it pain and fed it some minerals, making it so thankful that it even saved [[Officer Jenny]] from being crushed under a falling monument. | ||
