In ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road!]]'', Blaziken was given to May by [[Professor Birch]] in [[Littleroot Town]] when it was still a {{p|Torchic}}. She chose it as her [[starter Pokémon]] because she thought {{p|Treecko}} was creepy and scary (though she later called them cute in ''[[AG007|Tree's a Crowd]]''), while the starter {{p|Mudkip}} had attacked her earlier with a {{m|Water Gun}} in the face. However, she seemed to like Torchic's cute appearance and sweet nature. Early on in the journey, Torchic was very inexperienced and ditzy. It did not know how to {{pkmn|battle}}, and tended to wander around obliviously; it also tended to panic when in dangerous situations. On the group's first encounter with [[Jessie's Seviper]] (still wild at the time), the {{t|Poison}} type frightened Torchic by trying to eat it. | In ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road!]]'', Blaziken was given to May by [[Professor Birch]] in [[Littleroot Town]] when it was still a {{p|Torchic}}.

When May started to ignore Torchic in favor of her new {{TP|May|Beautifly}}, | When May started to ignore Torchic in favor of her new {{TP|May|Beautifly}}, His personality began to change: it grew more determined to improve itself and recapture May's attention. Its competitive streak continued to grow as it lost most of its childishness and confusion; this culminated in its [[evolution]] into {{p|Combusken}} during ''[[AG082|A Shroomish Skirmish]]'', where it learned both {{m|Fire Spin}} and {{m|Sky Uppercut}}. Combusken itself had a period of being highly aggressive, but this seems to have passed and its personality seems to have evened out more now that it apparently feels that it no longer has to overcompensate. | ||
Combusken proved to be very useful for [[Pokémon Contest]]s. The first time it took part of one was in ''[[AG090|Pokéblock, Stock and Berry]]'' and ''[[AG091|Lessons in Lilycove!]]'', when May used it in the [[Lilycove City]] Contest. Even though its Fire Spin caused problems during the Appeals Round, Combusken managed to get a score of 23.6, which helped May to reach the battle rounds. After defeating [[Jessie]] and {{TP|James|Chimecho}}, May had to battle [[Kelly]], a Coordinator who she met prior to entering the Contest. Kelly and her {{p|Grumpig}} showed great talent and effort, but May and Combusken turned out as the winners, earning them the Lilycove Ribbon. | Combusken proved to be very useful for [[Pokémon Contest]]s.

Blaziken appeared again when May made a guest appearance in ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]''. It was used in the [[Seven Stars Restaurant]] Tag Battles, in which it battled alongside [[Dawn's Piplup]]. When it was first called out, Ash seemed to be pleased at seeing it again, and Brock remarked that it had gotten stronger as well. After the food retrieval from Team Rocket, it was called out once again for the Tag Battle. Blaziken started off with a {{m|Blaze Kick}} but failed to hit the opponent and got hurt by Girafarig's {{m|Bite}}. The battle concluded with a combination of Piplup's {{m|BubbleBeam}} and Blaziken's {{m|Fire Spin}}, resulting in a fusion of the {{type|Fire}} and {{type|Water}} moves, knocking off both of the opponents as a result. | Blaziken appeared again when May made a guest appearance in ''[[DP076|A Full Course Tag Battle!]]''.
