He and his assistants tried to track down Umbreon, and he suddenly spots it and they run after it. They track it down and corner it, and Don George and his students cry at the thought of owning a Pokémon that is not normally found in Unova. When it was revealed to be {{TR|Meowth}}, Don George was initially disappointed until he realized that a talking Meowth was even rarer. Back at the club, Ash found the culprit was a {{AP|Tepig}} (which he had mistaken for an Umbreon because of its skinnier than normal appearance). Don George recognized Tepig as one that had been abandoned by its Trainer when it lost a battle against a {{p|Deerling}} and then ran off when Don George tried to release it from the rope that it had been tied to a post with. Later, he allowed Ash to capture Tepig. | He and his assistants tried to track down Umbreon, and he suddenly spots it and they run after it.

When visiting the Battle Club located in [[Luxuria Town]], Ash encountered Don George again, but was confused why he did not remember him. Don George explained to a confused Ash and Iris that there were many Battle Clubs scattered across [[Unova]] and in each one is headed by a Don George, which are all members of an identical and extended family (like [[Nurse Joy]], [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Porter]]). Don Georges are distinguished by the color of their collar, sash, and armbands, which differs from location to location (similar to Nurse Joy's cross, Officer Jenny's cap symbol and Porter's jacket and shoe lining). Later, he acted as referee during Ash and [[Trip]]'s five-on-five battle. | When visiting the Battle Club located in [[Luxuria Town]], Ash encountered Don George again, but was confused why he did not remember him.

Another Don George appeared in the [[Nacrene City]] Battle Club. He appeared in ''[[BW015|The Battle According to Lenora!]]'' and ''[[BW016|Rematch at the Nacrene Gym!]]'' where he helped Ash train for his rematch against [[Lenora]]. With his help, he was able to get Ash's {{AP|Oshawott}} and Tepig to learn {{m|Aqua Jet}} and {{m|Flame Charge}}, respectively. | Another Don George appeared in the [[Nacrene City]] Battle Club.
