Guzma debuted in ''[[SM115|The Dealer of Destruction!]]'', where he watched from Team Skull's base at the [[Shady House]] as {{an|Professor Kukui}} announced the [[Alola League]] on [[television|TV]]. The next day, he; [[Plumeria]]; and {{tc|Team Skull Grunt}}s [[Tupp]], [[Zipp]], and [[Rapp]] arrived on [[Melemele Island]]. There, he met {{TRT}} and quickly defeated them. Guzma later arrived at the [[Pokémon School]] and confronted Professor Kukui, before being challenged to a {{pkmn|battle}} by {{Ash}}, which he accepted.

In ''[[SM146|Thank You, Alola! The Journey Continues!]]'', Guzma and Golisopod were seen training with his underlings as Plumeria looked on.

Guzma has a great amount of determination, which was best showcased during the [[Manalo Conference]], where he entered with the strong hopes of destroying it from within. Guzma uses dirty tactics in order to win, as seen during his battle against [[Ilima]], where he had his {{p|Scizor}} position itself so that Kangaskhan's baby was always in the middle, endangering her well-being and causing the mother to hesitate often enough to be defeated. This was seen again during his battle against {{an|Lana}}, when he had {{p|Golisopod}} ruthlessly attack {{TP|Lana|Primarina}} without mercy.

Guzma completely disavowed the use of Z-Rings and Z-Crystals because, in his youth, he never learned to understand them properly and was bitter for always losing exercise battles against Kukui, despite the latter always commending his growth as a Trainer. After resolving to become strong in his own, Guzma built his reputation among Team Skull as "the Undefeated" by actually defeating only weak Trainers and retreating from battles against stronger Trainers with an excuse that he would have won anyways due to the damage his brutal tactics would do to his opponents' Pokémon. It was only during his battle against Ash in the Manalo Conference when Guzma was finally forced to admit his own cowardice and Golisopod, who had previously shared the same personality traits as him, now convinced him to let go of his fear of losing and keep battling until the end.
