===History===

Pansage was given to Cilan at a young age when his brothers also received their first Pokémon; he made his first appearance in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]'' where he showed him to {{Ash}} who scanned him on his [[Pokédex]] before battling.

Pansage's abilities as a swimmer were shown in ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]''. Cilan used him in a fishing competition to battle a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Basculin}} both in and out of the water. He was able to subdue it with Solar Beam and Cilan was able to capture it. However, it was later released. Later, Pansage was used to help stop {{TRT}} from stealing the Pokémon that were captured by the fishing competition contestants.

In ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]'', Pansage appeared in [[Luke]]'s movie alongside Cilan, as the main antagonists of the film. Later when Team Rocket had stolen {{TP|Luke|Zorua}} he switched roles and helped save Zorua when Cilan began to ad-lib his part, claiming to be a Magician now freed by Team Rocket's evil influence.  

In ''[[BW059|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1]]'', Cilan called upon Pansage to hold off {{p|Tornadus}} while Ash, Iris and [[Lewis]] ran ahead to {{p|Landorus}}'s shrine. However, Pansage was soon overcome by the legendary Pokémon who had a type advantage and was returned to his [[Poké Ball]]. Then in [[BW060|the next episode]], he helped rescue the members of the [[Forces of Nature]] from {{TRT}} after they were captured, repeatedly using {{m|Solar Beam}} on Dr. Zager's helicopter until he was joined by Pikachu, [[Ash's Roggenrola]], [[Iris's Axew]] and {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} to cause the forcefield prisons trapping the trio to break.

Pansage was Cilan's chosen Pokémon for the [[Clubsplosion]] tournament. He battled [[Flora]]'s {{p|Gothorita}} in ''[[BW070|The Clubsplosion Begins!]]'' for the first round. After his Solar Beam collided with Gothorita's {{m|Psyshock}}, Pansage was able to win the battle, using Dig whilst covered by the smoke created by the collision. He later battled [[Stephan's Sawk]] in ''[[BW072|A Clubsplosion of Excitement!]]''. Pansage was overwhelmed when Sawk easily defended against his Bullet Seed with {{m|Close Combat}} and hit him hard. Pansage attempted to stop Sawk's {{m|Karate Chop}} with Bite, but it only allowed Sawk a better method of attack, slamming Pansage to the ground. After the brutal attack, Pansage was able to stand back up, only to immediately be defeated by {{m|Low Sweep}}, knocking Cilan out of the tournament.

In ''[[BW090|Jostling for the Junior Cup!]]'', Pansage was used in the first round of the [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]] against [[Shepherd]]'s {{p|Galvantula}} and won the battle. Thus, Cilan advanced to the second round.

In ''[[BW118|Secrets From Out of the Fog!]]'' Pansage was sent out to battle a {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}'s {{p|Liepard}}, using Bullet Seed to prevent it from attacking. However, his Bullet Seed collided with [[Barret]]'s {{p|Magnezone}}'s {{m|Magnet Bomb}} and the resulting explosion knocked out [[Ash's Pignite]]. Pansage eventually defeated Liepard.

Cilan had entered Pansage in the [[Pokémon Sumo Tournament]] on [[Capacia Island]] in ''[[BW134|The Journalist from Another Region!]]''. In comparison to the other Pokémon entered, Pasange was considerably smaller. Cilan was aware of the weight disadvantage but insisted that their tactic would make up for it.  However, Pansage was quickly defeated by his first opponent, a {{p|Hariyama}}, who knocked him clear out of the ring and into the arms of his Trainer.

In ''[[BW140|Survival of the Striaton Gym!]]'', Pansage helped his Trainer to gather fruit for lunch. When the gang encountered an {{p|Abomasnow}}, Pansage offered a piece of fruit to the Frost Tree Pokémon, only to be attacked instead. The Abomasnow was revealed to be owned by [[Morana]] who had come to challenge Cilan. Pansage briefly reunited with Chili's Pansear and [[Cress]]'s {{p|Panpour}} before confronting Morana and her Abomasnow with his trainer. When the battle started, Abomasnow's {{a|Snow Warning}} ability lay snow across their battle field. Both Pokémon collided their equally powerful Bullet Seed attacks before Pansage dodged and struck Abomasnow with Dig, only to take a hit from Abomasnow's {{m|Strength}}. Pansage's Solar Beam was then matched by Abomasnow's {{m|Blizzard}}. Pansage then managed to avoid {{m|Sheer Cold}} with Dig and strike his opponent with Bullet Seed from within the hole. Pansage readied a Rock Tomb to finish the battle but was frozen by Blizzard. As Abomasnow charged towards the frozen Pansage using Strength, Pansage managed to charge a Solar Beam which broke through the ice and stopped Abomasnow's attack. Pansage finally knocked out his opponent with Rock Tomb. After the battle, Pansage graciously healed Abomasnow with herbs from his head.

Pansage appeared in [[SS027]], traveling with Cilan. After discovering a lake the two decided to fish. Aiming on catching a {{p|Qwilfish}} Cilan cast his lure into the lake but caught a {{p|Gyarados}} instead. Deciding to capture the Atrocious Pokémon Cilan had Pansage battle it. After dodging a {{m|Hydro Pump}} he was able to land two successful hits with Bullet Seed and Rock Tomb. Cilan orders a Solar Beam to finish it off and Pansage begans charging energy from the sun while jumping toward Gyarados to attack at close range. Gyarados counters with a {{m|Flamethrower}} and greatly injures the Grass Monkey Pokémon. Seeing Pansage hurt Cilan calls off the battle and rushes to get him to a [[Pokémon Center]].  

Upon arriving at the Pokémon Center Cilan explains to [[Nurse Joy]] about the Gyarados and its Flamethrower. Pansage is sent to the recovery room and after nervously waiting Nurse Joy tells him that Pansage will be fine and just needs some rest. While resting Cilan leaves him at the Pokémon Center while he goes to help bring Gyarados back to the lake. After Pansage fully recovered {{an|Brock}} tells him that he will take him to Cilan. Upon arriving Pansage sees his trainer trying to calm down the Gyarados, now on a rampage. After Brock sees that Gyarados is injured Cilan has Pansage use {{m|Grass Whistle}} to put it to sleep so Brock can heal it with a [[Potion]].
