In ''[[BW043|Meowth's Scrafty Tactics!]]'', Scraggy was used to assist {{MTR}} in negotiating with a wild {{p|Scrafty}} to rescue Axew, who Scrafty had kidnapped. In the process, the Scrafty taught him how to use {{m|High Jump Kick}}. Once Axew was rescued, Scraggy wished to assist Scrafty, whose home had been taken by a {{p|Mandibuzz}}. Using his new High Jump Kick, Scraggy was able to subdue Mandibuzz. | In ''[[BW043|Meowth's Scrafty Tactics!]]'', Scraggy was used to assist {{MTR}} in negotiating with a wild {{p|Scrafty}} to rescue Axew, who Scrafty had kidnapped.

He battled with Axew once more in ''[[BW055|Scraggy and the Demanding Gothita!]]'' to play, which ended in another draw when Scraggy's High Jump Kick countered Axew's Dragon Rage. They then ran into a {{p|Gothita}} that took a liking to Scraggy. Gothita's [[Katharine|Trainer]] challenged Ash to a battle on the condition that if she won, he'd have to trade Scraggy away to her. After Ash won, they all stayed the night together in a cabin. Scraggy left with Gothita while everyone was sleeping for a midnight snack, but Axew came out to bring him back. Gothita ended up disturbing a wild {{p|Garbodor}}. Scraggy attempted to stand up to the Trash Heap Pokémon, but they were only safe when Snivy turned up to defend them. The next day Scraggy was happy to see Gothita storm away after Snivy defeated her. | He battled with Axew once more in ''[[BW055|Scraggy and the Demanding Gothita!]]'' to play, which ended in another draw when Scraggy's High Jump Kick countered Axew's Dragon Rage.

Scraggy was picked as Ash's registered Pokémon for the [[Clubsplosion]] tournament in ''[[BW070|The Clubsplosion Begins!]]'' when Ash heard that the tournament was geared towards {{t|Fighting}}-type Pokémon. He battled [[Angus]]'s {{p|Simisage}} in the first round. While the match started off with both Pokémon avoiding each other's attacks, Scraggy was eventually able to land a High Jump Kick on Simisage. However, Simisage countered by stepping on Scraggy's "pants" so that he couldn't defend with them again and hit him with {{m|Low Sweep}}. After Scraggy's next High Jump Kick missed, he was hit by a barrage of Low Sweeps while he writhed in pain from the [[crash damage]]. Simisage was about to finish the match with {{m|Giga Impact}} when Scraggy formed a {{m|Focus Blast}} between his hands, learning a new move, and used it to shield himself from Simisage's attack. Unfortunately, Scraggy could not keep it on target when it came to launching his Focus Blast, though he made up for it by using Leer on Simisage and, with its effects, hit it with a Headbutt attack, winning the match. | |||

Scraggy continued to watch the first-round matches in the [[BW071|next episode]]. While watching, he became annoyed by {{an|Bianca}}'s admiration of him and hit her with Headbutt. During the break between battles, he and Ash began practicing Focus Blast; however, not making any progress. In ''[[BW072|A Clubsplosion of Excitement!]]'', Scraggy battled [[Betty]]'s {{p|Simipour}}. After defending against Simipour's {{m|Aqua Tail}} and {{m|Brick Break}}, Scraggy once again attempted Focus Blast but with no result. After enduring an {{m|Acrobatics}} attack, Scraggy hit Simipour with Leer, blocked a second Brick Break with Headbutt, and won the match with High Jump Kick. In ''[[BW073|Commanding the Clubsplosion Crown!]]'', Scraggy faced off against [[Montgomery]]'s {{p|Throh}} during the semi-finals. After persistently trying to weaken Throh's Defense with Leer, Scraggy was heavily damaged by Throh's {{m|Circle Throw}} and {{m|Superpower}} attacks. Scraggy then released a barrage of Focus Blasts, failing to hit his target. Scraggy was defeated by {{m|Seismic Toss}}, eliminating him and Ash from the tournament. | Scraggy continued to watch the first-round matches in the [[BW071|next episode]].

In ''[[BW074|Battling the Leaf Thieves!]]'', Scraggy and Axew watched a battle between [[Iris's Emolga]] and Ash's {{AP|Swadloon}} and was excited to see {{p|Swadloon}} evolve into {{p|Leavanny}}. When Leavanny first looked upon his young friends, he pranced off and made leaf hoods for them both, which Scraggy was very happy to receive. While the gang was napping, a group of {{p|Durant}} took Axew away, believing he was food, as he was still wearing his leaf outfit. When Scraggy first awoke and found that Axew was missing, he screamed and shouted for him, waking the others up and alerting them to the situation. The gang soon discovered a swarm of Durant's nest, where Scraggy and Ash were both wrapped up in leaves so that they'd be taken to the Durant's food pile so that they could retrieve Axew. However, they were noticed, and a huge battle broke out between Scraggy, Pikachu, Emolga, Leavanny, and the dozens of Durant. Scraggy was able to easily dodge the various {{m|Iron Head}}, {{m|Shadow Claw}}, and {{m|Guillotine}} attacks that came his way. Still, like his teammates, he was unable to land a hit on the Durant because of their excessive use of {{m|Protect}}. After all but one Durant was infatuated by Emolga's {{m|Attract}}, Scraggy and Pikachu defeated them and allowed Iris to rescue a still-sleeping Axew. Leavanny led the gang back through the Durant maze, and Scraggy stayed out his Poké Ball with the gang until Axew woke up. | In ''[[BW074|Battling the Leaf Thieves!]]'', Scraggy and Axew watched a battle between [[Iris's Emolga]] and Ash's {{AP|Swadloon}} and was excited to see {{p|Swadloon}} evolve into {{p|Leavanny}}.

Scraggy was used in his first Gym battle during ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions!]]'', where it was Ash's second Pokémon in his [[Icirrus Gym]] Battle against [[Brycen]]; he went up against {{p|Vanillish}}. Initially, Scraggy sustained crash damage from a failed High Jump Kick and missed his target again with Headbutt, having trouble maintaining his balance on the iced-over battlefield. On the defensive, Scraggy was able to deflect Vanillish's {{m|Icicle Spear}} with his "pants" and launch a Focus Blast attack. Like before, Scraggy's attack missed, but by chance, the Focus Blast fell backward and struck Vanillish. Scraggy then knocked out his opponent with Headbutt. {{p|Cryogonal}} was brought out subsequently to fight Scraggy. His Headbutt attack was blocked by a fearsome {{m|Rapid Spin}} and then took more Rapid Spin attacks, and after a failed Focus Blast, despite using his "pants", Scraggy was knocked out by Cryogonal's powerful {{m|Aurora Beam}}. | Scraggy was used in his first Gym battle during ''[[BW079|Caution: Icy Battle Conditions!]]'', where it was Ash's second Pokémon in his [[Icirrus Gym]] Battle against [[Brycen]]; he went up against {{p|Vanillish}}.

In ''[[BW105|Lost at the League!]]'', Scraggy was seen defeating a {{p|Darumaka}} with Headbutt after using High Jump Kick and Leer and winning Ash's third round battle of the [[Vertress Conference]]. | In ''[[BW105|Lost at the League!]]'', Scraggy was seen defeating a {{p|Darumaka}} with Headbutt after using High Jump Kick and Leer and winning Ash's third round battle of the [[Vertress Conference]]. | ||

From the moment he hatched, Scraggy has shown himself to be a headstrong Pokémon who views new Pokémon as opponents. He will Leer at his potential opponents to show his toughness before trying to Headbutt them. His overconfidence often gets him into trouble as he believes he is much stronger than he is. This was best evidenced in ''[[BW017|Scraggy-Hatched to be Wild!]]'', when he took on a whole group of {{p|Galvantula}} by himself; and in ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]'', when he took on a group of angry {{p|Foongus}}. A stubborn Pokémon, Scraggy will not give up on trying to defeat an opponent even if he is injured. Despite disliking to do so, he knows when to accept help from his friends and Trainer. He is also shown to care about those whom he considers his friends. This is shown in both ''[[BW029|Cottonee in Love!]]'' and ''[[BW043|Meowth's Scrafty Tactics!]]'', when Ash tried to recall him to his {{i|Poké Ball}}, but he didn't want to go in because he wanted to help his new friends on both occasions. | From the moment he hatched, Scraggy has shown himself to be a headstrong Pokémon who views new Pokémon as opponents.
