After the release of [[Ash's Pidgeot]], but before the capture of [[Ash's Noctowl]], Zubat did a lot of the group's scouting, helped further by its {{m|Supersonic}}. In ''[[EP128|The Whistle Stop]]'', Zubat tried to track down a {{p|Ledyba}}, but ended up disturbing a group of {{p|Golbat}}. | After the release of [[Ash's Pidgeot]], but before the capture of [[Ash's Noctowl]], Zubat did a lot of the group's scouting, helped further by its {{m|Supersonic}}.

In ''[[EP165|Hassle in the Castle]]'', Ash, Misty, and Brock entered a castle where a woman named [[Dr. Anna]] used different Pokémon for diagnosing and treating patients. One of these was her Zubat, Mimi, which used its Supersonic move to scan patients. Eager to impress the doctor, Brock sent out his Zubat to assist her. [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} entered the scene, and as Dr. Anna, Brock, and the two Zubat pursued them, causing them to become stuck in an underground maze. Dr. Anna had Mimi use Supersonic again to create a map, and with the assistance of Brock's Zubat an entire map of the maze was generated. They wandered through the maze and encountered multiple traps until their Zubat were able to find the exit door. It wouldn't open, however, and {{TRT}} were given the opportunity to grab both of the Zubat, only to find themselves stuck as well. They were eventually freed from the maze by {{TP|Brock|Pineco}}'s {{m|Self-Destruct}} and the two Zubat flew free of the bag they were held in. Team Rocket tried to make off with [[Ash's Pikachu]], but the two Zubat blew away Weezing's Smokescreen and Brock's Zubat engaged in battle with Team Rocket's Pokémon. During this battle, it [[Evolution|evolved]] into Golbat, and was able to send Team Rocket packing with the help of Pikachu. Brock had hoped to stay and help Dr. Anna, but had his hopes crushed when he learned that Golbat was so strong that its Supersonic overloaded Dr. Anna's computer. | In ''[[EP165|Hassle in the Castle]]'', Ash, Misty, and Brock entered a castle where a woman named [[Dr. Anna]] used different Pokémon for diagnosing and treating patients.

Golbat and {{TP|Brock|Pineco}} watched over Brock when he fell ill in ''[[EP193|Sick Daze]]''. It used Supersonic to prevent him overexerting himself and keep him in bed. It also helped rescue all of the stolen Pokémon by destroying the balloon with Wing Attack, and attacking Arbok and {{TP|James|Weezing}}, again with Pineco. | Golbat and {{TP|Brock|Pineco}} watched over Brock when he fell ill in ''[[EP193|Sick Daze]]''.

In ''[[EP196|Control Freak!]]'', Brock found and agreed to help a woman who was looking for two artifacts which were supposedly buried nearby and had been used by a queen to control Pokémon. Possibly having learned to do such from his encounter with Dr. Anna, Brock was able to hook up Golbat to her computer and display a map of the underground. They reached the chamber only to find Team Rocket had beaten them there and Jessie was using the artifacts to control Pokémon. Brock's Golbat was the only Pokémon that could resist the effects of the artifacts, and countered it using its Supersonic. Jessie turned Brock's {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} and {{TP|Brock|Onix}} against him, and it was trapped under the rubble of Onix's {{m|Dig}}. Brock was able to locate Golbat under the rocks by listening carefully for the sound waves, somehow having ears sensitive enough to pick up the ultrasonic waves. They tracked down Team Rocket to find them leaving, appropriately, in a rocket. Golbat and [[Ash's Noctowl]] flew after the rocket, but could not keep up. Brock called out to Golbat, and this caused it to evolve into Crobat. It easily overtook Noctowl and the rocket and destroyed it with a Wing Attack. | In ''[[EP196|Control Freak!]]'', Brock found and agreed to help a woman who was looking for two artifacts which were supposedly buried nearby and had been used by a queen to control Pokémon.

In ''[[EP264|Mother of All Battles]]'', when the [[Pokémon Poacher Brothers]] stole {{AP|Larvitar}}'s mother, {{p|Tyranitar}}, Crobat was sent out to chase after them. Crobat was able to tail them without being noticed and reported their location back to Brock. | |||

Brock lent Crobat alongside Onix and Geodude to his younger brother, [[Forrest]], who took on the role of [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Pewter Gym]] when Brock went to [[Hoenn]] in ''[[HS01|The Family That Battles Together, Stays Together]]''. | Brock lent Crobat alongside Onix and Geodude to his younger brother, [[Forrest]], who took on the role of [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Pewter Gym]] when Brock went to [[Hoenn]] in ''[[HS01|The Family That Battles Together, Stays Together]]''. | ||

Despite its few appearances, Crobat was shown to be very loyal towards its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, due to the amount of training it received and the care Brock gave it. Its impeccable speed and {{m|Supersonic}} sonar proved to be useful on many occasions, like finding missing Pokémon or guiding Brock and his friends through otherwise treacherous caverns. | Despite its few appearances, Crobat was shown to be very loyal towards its {{pkmn|Trainer}}, due to the amount of training it received and the care Brock gave it.

It is also very capable at scouting, which often comes into use when {{TRT}} steals a Pokémon. | ||
