Empoleon was first seen as a Prinplup in ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters!]]''. It proved to be very strong when it was battling against {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} despite its disadvantage. In [[DP027|the next episode]], it put up a good fight against [[Dawn's Piplup]]. At first Prinplup didn't want to be friends with its weaker, pre-evolved form, but after being saved by Piplup, they soon became friends. | Empoleon was first seen as a Prinplup in ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters!]]''.

It also appeared in ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]'', alongside [[Barry's Empoleon]] and [[Dawn's Piplup]]. In [[DP123|the following episode]], it defeated [[Dawn's Ambipom]] in the [[Sandalstraw Town]] {{pkmn|Contest}}, earning Kenny his fourth Ribbon. | It also appeared in ''[[DP122|Stopped in the Name of Love!]]'', alongside [[Barry's Empoleon]] and [[Dawn's Piplup]].

Between helping Kenny win the Sandalstraw Ribbon and Kenny's [[DP174|participation]] in the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival|Grand Festival]], Prinplup [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Empoleon}} and learned two new moves: {{m|Flash Cannon}} and {{m|Hydro Cannon}}. Kenny used Empoleon alongside his {{p|Floatzel}} in the Appeal Round, however during an attempt to create a Flash Cannon-{{m|Whirlpool}} combination, Empoleon accidentally knocked Floatzel out, its Flash Cannon being too powerful for Floatzel to handle. As a result of this huge mistake, Kenny failed to make it past the appeal round. | Between helping Kenny win the Sandalstraw Ribbon and Kenny's [[DP174|participation]] in the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival|Grand Festival]], Prinplup [[Evolution|evolved]] into {{p|Empoleon}} and learned two new moves: {{m|Flash Cannon}} and {{m|Hydro Cannon}}.

Kenny used Empoleon in ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]'' in a battle against [[Ash's Buizel]] in which it was able to defeat Buizel. It also seemed to have developed a rivalry with Buizel following its win. | Kenny used Empoleon in ''[[DP180|Four Roads Diverged in a Pokémon Port!]]'' in a battle against [[Ash's Buizel]] in which it was able to defeat Buizel.

Natural of its species, Empoleon is always very proud and doesn't give others respect until they have, in its eyes, 'proved themselves worthy'. This was seen both when it met [[Dawn's Piplup]] for the first time and when it was pitted against [[Ash's Buizel]]. Like Buizel, Empoleon can be quite headstrong, developing their short-lived rivalry over a trivial issue, after Buizel's {{m|SonicBoom}} attack nearly hit its target. | Natural of its species, Empoleon is always very proud and doesn't give others respect until they have, in its eyes, 'proved themselves worthy'.
