Prior to the start of the series, Red owned Poli as a Poliwag. While swimming one day Red began to drown and Poli was unable to do anything but watch. Due to being unable to save Red in his current state he evolved into Poliwhirl and saved him. Poli first appeared in ''[[PS001|A Glimpse of the Glow]]'', being used by {{adv|Red}} to help capture a {{p|Nidorino}}. Poli was later used to battle against a wild {{adv|Mew}}, but was knocked out in a hit. | Prior to the start of the series, Red owned Poli as a Poliwag.

Poli was used in Red's first battle against a Trainer's {{p|Graveler}} and was able to win by using one-hit knockouts and complimentary moves, despite starting off with low health. | ||

In ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'', Poli was the only member of Red's team to infiltrate the [[S.S. Anne]]. Immediately upon entering the two of them end up battling a {{p|Voltorb}}, but ends up paralyzed. Due to Poli being paralyzed and unable to help out, Red is forced to dodge the powerful {{m|Thunder Punch}} attacks from [[Lt. Surge]]'s {{p|Electabuzz}}. Right when it seems the two of them are trapped, Red reveals their plan, which had Poli secretly drip a trail of water on the floor leading to Lt. Surge and Electabuzz. At Red's command Poliwhirl uses Ice Beam to freeze the legs of Lt. Surge and Electabuzz, and with the smoke of a launched Poké Ball, the two escapes safely. While trying to find the exit Poli is attacked by a {{p|Magneton}} and captured by Lt. Surge, who throws him off the ship. Red attempts to rescue him, but is electrocuted and throw into the ocean as well. As Red begins to recall a similar situation he is saved by Poli, who has evolved into a Poliwrath. With his new found strength Poli easily out powers Electabuzz with its new Seismic Toss. In the {{chap|Yellow}}, it is revealed that Poli was able to evolve without a {{evostone|Water Stone}} due to the Vermilion Harbor having traces of the four evolutionary stones speculated to be at the bottom of {{DL|Vermilion City|Harbor|Vermilion Harbor}}. | In ''[[PS010|Danger: High Voltorb]]'', Poli was the only member of Red's team to infiltrate the [[S.S.
