Vulpix was given to Brock by [[Suzy]] in the episode ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]''. Suzy was Brock's idol, and Vulpix took a liking to him, which was surprising, as the little Pokémon had a very snobbish nature. It even liked Brock's homemade [[Pokémon food]]. It drove away Team Rocket with a very powerful {{m|Fire Spin}}, driving home the point that a focus on outer beauty could eclipse a Pokémon's inner strength. Impressed with the way Brock cared for [[Brock's Geodude|his Geodude]] and [[Ash's Pikachu]], Suzy decided that Brock might be able to take better care of Vulpix than she could. | Vulpix was given to Brock by [[Suzy]] in the episode ''[[EP028|Pokémon Fashion Flash]]''.

Like many of Brock's Pokémon, Vulpix received very little screentime compared to the Pokémon of other main characters. When it was featured, Brock was often seen grooming and pampering it. This | Like many of Brock's Pokémon, Vulpix received very little screentime compared to the Pokémon of other main characters. When it was featured, Brock was often seen grooming and pampering it. This led to events in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', where Misty offered to trade her {{TP|Misty|Psyduck}} for Vulpix, being sick of her Psyduck's headache and annoyed at Brock's compliments of Vulpix. Later the group met the [[Eevee brothers]] in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' who were throwing an evolution party for their younger brother [[Mikey]] to evolve his {{p|Eevee}}. They offered Brock a {{evostone|Fire Stone}} to evolve Vulpix but he refused, saying he didn't want to force Vulpix to evolve if it didn't want to. | ||
Brock lent it to {{an|Misty}} when she was competing in the [[Princess Day]] Festival in ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' and wanted a more balanced team (Ash also let her borrow Pikachu and {{AP|Bulbasaur}} for the contest). It was seen defeating a {{p|Tangela}} with {{m|Flamethrower}} en route to the final. However, it was defeated easily by [[Jessie]]'s {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}}'s {{m|Lick}}. | Brock lent it to {{an|Misty}} when she was competing in the [[Princess Day]] Festival in ''[[EP052|Princess vs. Princess]]'' and wanted a more balanced team (Ash also let her borrow Pikachu and {{AP|Bulbasaur}} for the contest).
