Iris sent out Excadrill to help out in ''[[BW020|Dancing With the Ducklett Trio!]]'' when {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} went missing after falling down a hole. However, Excadrill refused to help, remaining inactive and forcing Iris to recall him. He appeared again for a short time in ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'' to fend off a swarm of {{p|Swoobat}}, but as usual he just remained idle. He then fell for {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}'s {{m|Attract}} and was returned to his Poké Ball. Then in [[BW025|the next episode]] he was brought out by Emolga's {{m|Volt Switch}}, but still did nothing.

In ''[[BW033|Iris and Excadrill Against the Dragon Buster!]]'', after Axew was knocked out by [[Georgia]]'s {{p|Beartic}}, Excadrill was sent out to battle. After intentionally being knocked into a tree, Excadrill came out of his stasis and battled the Freezing Pokémon. He was knocked out and returned to his idle state of being curled up. Conversations between Ash, Iris and Cilan subsequently followed. Later that night, Excadrill was emotionally moved by Iris's heartfelt apology to him, finally understanding his situation. Forgiving her, he wandered off while she slept and managed to learn how to use {{m|Focus Blast}}, but could not perform it properly. Iris then trained with him, and together they managed to perfect the attack. With his confidence in his Trainer restored, Excadrill re-challenged Beartic, which resulted in a draw. Despite tying, Excadrill was still pleased with the results, embracing his Trainer in a hug.

Iris used Excadrill in the final round of the [[Club Battle]] in ''[[BW042|Club Battle Finale: A Hero's Outcome!]]'' in her battle against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}. After his Drill Run clashed with Pikachu's {{m|Quick Attack}}, Excadrill grabbed his opponent by the tail and flung Pikachu across the battale feild before attacking with {{m|Metal Claw}}. Excadrill then attempted another Metal Claw to meet Pikachu {{m|Iron Tail}}, however, he was hit by his opponent's attack. His Focus Blast met with Pikachu's {{m|Electro Ball}}, where the moves were shown to be equal. Excadrill soon landed a hit with {{m|Dig}}, although the attack left Pikachu spinning in mid-air; putting more force behind his Iron Tail which hit Excadrill hard. Excadrill was finally able to better Iorn Tail with Drill Run, distract Pikachu with Dig and win the match with one final Focus Blast.
