Samurai appeared in ''[[EP004|Challenge of the Samurai]]''. {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} were traveling through Viridian Forest since Ash intended to catch more Pokémon.

Samurai challenged Ash to a battle, having already lost to {{Gary}} and the other two Trainers from Pallet Town.


Because of the confusion caused by Samurai's yelling and sword-waving, the Weedle escaped. Samurai insulted Ash, saying that he is a "bad Trainer". Because of that, they challenged each other to a Pokémon battle. Samurai's powerful {{p|Pinsir}} knocked out [[Ash's Pidgeotto]]. Ash sent out his {{AP|Metapod}} and made him use {{m|Harden}} to damage Pinsir's pincers. Samurai sent out his own Metapod, and the two Pokémon, being unable to use any move besides Harden, were locked in a complete stalemate for hours.

Their match was interrupted by a swarm of {{p|Beedrill}}, apparently angered by Ash attacking the Weedle earlier. The Beedrill snatched Ash's Metapod and flew off. The trio hid in Samurai's cabin, where the boy continued to berate and insult Ash, saying that Ash was not a good Trainer to his Pokémon because he didn't go rescue his Metapod when the Beedrill attacked.

Ash eventually gained Samurai's respect when he used his newly [[Evolution|evolved]] {{AP|Butterfree}} to put the Beedrill to sleep by using {{m|Sleep Powder}} and reunited with his Pokémon.
