As a Ponyta, he was one of the first Pokémon Platinum owned | As a Ponyta, he was one of the first Pokémon that Platinum owned; she took him along with her when she set off on her journey. He carries Platinum while traveling. In the Oreburgh Gym challenge, he was quickly knocked out by Roark's {{p|Onix}}, before which its {{m|Stealth Rock}} targeted [[Platinum's Empoleon|Piplup]], which eventually succeeded in bringing down the gym leader. Despite possessing the type advantage this time, it was easily knocked out by [[Gardenia]]'s {{p|Roserade}} in a single blow, leaving the newly evolved Prinplup to defeat the leader's Pokémon. Due to its constant losing streak, it was mostly used for transportation purposes by Platinum (and once by {{adv|Diamond}}), and wasn't even considered to go up against [[Crasher Wake]]'s team of strong {{type|Water}} Pokémon. | ||

In the {{chap|Platinum}}, he is used for {{adv|Platinum}}'s battle against [[Castle Valet Darach and Caitlin|Castle Valet Darach]]. | |||
