Starmie made its debut in Misty's Gym battle against Ash, in ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''. Misty had successfully beaten {{AP|Butterfree}} with {{TP|Misty|Staryu}}, and Starmie was called out against the higher level {{AP|Pidgeotto}}, suggesting that at this time Starmie was more powerful than Staryu. It dived underwater to dodge Pidgeotto's {{m|Whirlwind}}, and shot up into the air to land a {{m|Tackle}}. However, its second tackle was deflected by {{m|Wing Attack}}, and then it was blown into the gym wall by a {{m|Gust}} attack, on the brink of losing before Team Rocket intervened. The battle was called off and Ash was given the badge regardless. | Starmie made its debut in Misty's Gym battle against Ash, in ''[[EP007|The Water Flowers of Cerulean City]]''.

She promptly challenged him to a real battle, and sent out Starmie to fight his {{p|Weepinbell}}, most likely because Starmie had been so easily beaten in the simulation. Starmie used a single Water Gun and knocked out Weepinbell, leading to Joe's ridicule by [[Giselle]]. However, Misty then challenged Giselle, calling her out for not being a true friend. Giselle's {{p|Graveler}} proved to be a very powerful opponent, deflecting Water Gun by spinning and then smashing into Starmie, shattering the center gem and knocking it through the window and into the pool. It is one of the two instances a Starmie's core has been seen shattering, the other being owned by a young Trainer on the St. Anne. Starmie's regenerative abilities were also demonstrated, as by the next time it was seen, its central core was repaired. | ||

Starmie was sent out to battle a wild {{p|Oddish}} in ''[[EP010|Bulbasaur and the Hidden Village]]''. It successfully weakened Oddish with Water Gun and Tackle, but was knocked out in one Tackle from the {{AP|Bulbasaur}} that came to its defense. It later helped to rescue the trio from the sinking St. Anne in ''[[EP016|Pokémon Shipwreck]]'', carrying {{an|Brock}} from the ship, and later towing the group's raft out of the range of James' raging {{DL|List of Pokémon temporarily owned by Team Rocket|Gyarados}}.
