Lt. Surge appeared in ''[[EP014|Electric Shock Showdown]]''. He was quick to show off his powerful {{TP|Lt. Surge|Raichu}} upon {{Ash}}'s arrival at the [[Vermilion Gym]]. Lt. Surge then laughed at the sight of {{AP|Pikachu}} and mocked him for his apparent weakness, though he eventually agreed to battle Ash. Pikachu was quickly overwhelmed and defeated by Raichu's onslaught of attacks.

After Pikachu recovered at the local [[Pokemon Center]], Ash had a [[rematch]] with Lt. Surge. When Pikachu was able to use his {{m|Agility}} to evade Raichu's attacks, Lt. Surge had Raichu use {{m|Thunderbolt}} to destroy the Gym's lights and glass windows. However, Pikachu didn't sustain any damage after he grounded himself with his tail, while Raichu exhausted all of its electrical power. Pikachu then used the opportunity to defeat Raichu, earning Ash his third Badge, the {{Badge|Thunder}}.

In ''[[JN018|Destination: Coronation!]]'', it was revealed that Surge left the Gym in the care of [[Visquez]] and left on his own journey to become a better Electric-type Trainer. It was also revealed that he trained the Raichu that Visquez owns, and Ash's fame had grown amongst the Trainers at the Gym.

An intimidating person, Lt. Surge surrounds himself with other tough-looking {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. He is arrogant, loud, and crude; and refers to all challengers as "babies" until they manage to defeat him. Lt. Surge generally looks down on unevolved Pokémon, preferring to [[Evolution|evolve]] them as soon as possible. He also seems to be an extremely brutal battler, as nearly every Trainer that faced him ended up with their Pokémon being seriously injured.
In spite of his preference for evolved Pokémon, Lt. Surge does not take into account any advantages an unevolved Pokémon may have over their evolved forms. Though he managed to defeat {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} once with pure power, Pikachu was able to use speed-altering moves like {{m|Agility}}, which Raichu couldn't learn, to outrun and defeat it. Surge and Raichu came to respect Ash and Pikachu's tenacity after this defeat, and, as shown in ''[[JN018|Destination: Coronation!]]'', tells his Gym Trainers stories about their rematch to this day.
