Virbank City debuted in ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]'', when {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} arrived at the city port. Like in the {{pkmn|games}}, the city has an existing [[Pokéstar Studios|movie studio]] and a recently built amusement park. The group met [[Luke]] again who was visiting the city to participate in the [[Pokéstar Studios Film Competiion]]. After being persuaded by {{an|Cilan}}, the group decided to help Luke in the making of his film, which won Best Picture.

In ''[[BW083|Rocking the Virbank Gym! Part 1]]'' and ''[[BW084|Part 2]]'', Ash and his friends went to the [[Virbank Gym]]. There, he battled [[Gym Leader]] [[Roxie]] for his eighth [[Unova League]] Gym Badge, and ultimately won it. Roxie also fronts [[Unova]]'s top punk rock band "Koffing and the Toxics", so fans flock to the Virbank Gym to watch them perform during Roxie's Gym matches.

In ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'', Ash and his friends, having learned that the [[Vertress Conference]] would begin in three months, decided to go eat Virbank City's famous "Bearticone" at Cilan's suggestion. Arriving at the ice cream stand, they met up with the [[Sinnoh League]] {{pkmn|Champion}}, [[Cynthia]]. Cynthia then invited them to go to East Unova with her for the upcoming [[Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup]].

* Due to {{DL|List of glitches (Generation V)|Virbank City surfable boat oversight|a glitch}}, it is possible to {{m|Surf}} on the southeasternmost tile of the westmost boat by interacting with it from land, despite this tile being inaccessible from the adjacent water tile. This tile cannot produce wild Pokémon encounters, even through {{m|Sweet Scent}} or [[Honey]].
