[[File:Elesa anime.png|thumb|250px|Elesa in the anime]]

Elesa appeared in flashbacks in ''[[BW069|Climbing the Tower of Success!]]'', ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]'' and [[BW103]].

In ''[[BW050|Battle-Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', Zebstrika was used against [[Ash's Palpitoad]] during his challenge for a badge. However, as Palpitoad was part {{type|Ground}}, Wild Charge would not work and Flame Charge did little damage. Although Zebstrika's Double Kick was powerful against Palpitoad, it was hit with Palpitoad's {{m|Supersonic}}, leaving it confused. A combination of {{m|Mud Shot}} and {{m|Hydro Pump}} finally knocked it out.

|desc=Elesa's {{p|Emolga}} first appeared in ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', where she was used second in her Gym Battle against {{Ash}}. Using a combination of Attract and Aerial Ace, she was able to knock out Ash's {{AP|Palpitoad}}. Next, she went up against {{AP|Snivy}}. As both Pokémon were female, Attract could not work; however, Emolga was able to defeat Snivy using Aerial Ace and Acrobatics—moves Snivy was weak against. Finally, Emolga was sent up against {{AP|Pikachu}}, but since the recent battles had taken their toll, Emolga was knocked out with a single {{m|Quick Attack}}.

|desc={{p|Tynamo}} was the last Pokémon Elesa used against Ash in their Gym Battle in ''[[BW050|Dazzling the Nimbasa Gym!]]'', and is called by Elesa as her "Electric Queen". Ash was confused by the unusual Pokémon that, despite being fish-like in appearance, could float in mid-air. Elesa worked around Tynamo's inability to learn more than a few moves by training her so her Tackle was extremely powerful, causing Pikachu to struggle. However, Pikachu was able to pull himself together and knocked out Tynamo with {{m|Iron Tail}} after repetitively using {{m|Thunderbolt}} on the field. She reappeared in a flashback in [[BW103]].
