After Ash passed Rudy's attack test, he faced him in a three-on-three battle pitting Pokémon of the same [[type]] against each other atop one of the rock pillars that surrounds Trovita Island. Prior to the fight, Rudy asked Misty if she wanted to stay with him after the match, but permitted Misty to decide after the battle was over. Ash lost the first round of the battle — {{AP|Pikachu}} versus {{p|Electabuzz}} — but {{AP|Bulbasaur}} won the battle against an {{p|Exeggutor}} by using {{m|Sleep Powder}} on it, causing it to fall off the pillar before Bulbasaur caught it with {{m|Vine Whip}}. | After Ash passed Rudy's attack test, he faced him in a three-on-three battle pitting Pokémon of the same [[type]] against each other atop one of the rock pillars that surrounds Trovita Island.

Rudy was featured in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], making him the only one of the [[Orange League]] Gym Leaders to make an appearance outside of the anime. However, he was referred to as Jeremy in the English version. Events in the manga transpired similar to the anime episode in which he was featured, although {{Tracey}} was not there. Rudy was the final Orange League Gym Leader that Ash battled, not the third. In addition, after Misty turned down Rudy's proposal, Mahri was disappointed because she wanted Misty to become her big sister. To solve this, Rudy starts to crossdress, becoming a big sister for Mahri. | Rudy was featured in [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]], making him the only one of the [[Orange League]] Gym Leaders to make an appearance outside of the anime.
