Cacturne made its debut appearance in ''[[AG103|A Cacturne for the Worse]]'', where it was used in the [[Purika City]] [[Pokémon Contest]]. In the Appeals Round, it used its {{m|Bullet Seed}} attack to draw frightening skull and crossbones on the stage. Its performance left [[Raoul Contesta|the]] [[Mr. Sukizo|three]] [[Nurse Joy|judges]] very impressed and easily granted [[Harley]] a place in the second stage. In the [[Contest Battle|Battle Round]], it was seen defeating an {{p|Azurill}} to reach the Contest finals. There, it went up against [[May's Bulbasaur]]. It {{pkmn|battle}}d well but ended up being [[Fainting|knocked out]] by a powerful and beautiful [[Contest combination|combination]] of {{m|Razor Leaf}} and {{m|Petal Dance}}. | |||
After the Purika Contest, Cacturne was used in the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]]. In ''[[AG121|Hi Ho Silver Wind!]]'', it was called out to perform in the preliminary appeals stage. Using Bullet Seed, it scored 84 points for Harley, allowing him to advance to the main competition. In ''[[AG123|Rhapsody in Drew]]'', it battled alongside {{DL|Harley|Banette}} against May's Bulbasaur and {{TP|May|Beautifly}}. Despite the good start, Cacturne and Banette soon found themselves struggling to handle their opponents' impressive combinations and were eventually defeated, thus eliminating Harley from the tournament. | |||

Cacturne was Harley's choice for the Appeals Round of the [[Saffron City]] [[Pokémon Contest]] in ''[[AG144|A Hurdle for Squirtle]]''. It created an interesting display by using the sharp needles from {{m|Needle Arm}} to cut through the fluffy cotton balls from {{m|Cotton Spore}}, demonstrating incredible precision and impressing the judges enough for them to grant Harley a place in the second round. | |||
In ''[[AG174|New Plot, Odd Lot!]]'', Cacturne was lent to [[Jessie]] as part of Harley's plan to ruin May's chances of entering the [[Grand Festival]]. Shortly after being sent out, it fell in love with Jessie. This happened because Harley and Jessie are soul mates, as explained by Harley himself. Jessie used Cacturne in the Appeals Round of the {{ci|Mulberry}} Contest. For its performance, Cacturne used Needle Arm and {{m|Cut}} to slice a carrot. It followed with Cotton Spore and used Bullet Seed to destroy the cotton-like spores and create a shower of sparkles. Its appeal was praised by the judges and easily put Jessie in the Battle Round. | |||
