Prior to the start of the ''[[XY series]]'', Clemont built Clembot when he found that being a Gym Leader meant he had little time to spend with [[List of Clemont's inventions|his beloved inventions]] and decided to create a replacement who could meet challengers when he was busy. He programmed it to be what he believed was the ideal Gym Leader, believing that his perfect opponent would be someone who had earned four [[Kalos]] [[Gym]] [[Badge]]s and that the Leader should be someone who is strict in order to allow people to learn.

Clemont intended to enter a voice code to allow him to take control of Clembot if the need arose, but he mistimed the entry of the code. Clemont intended to give it the code "sandwich". However, when Clembot's eyes lit up, indicating it was ready to accept the voice code, Bonnie ran in to inform Clemont of a challenger. As Clemont left, he accidentally tripped over a cord trying to leave the room, causing Clembot to fall and gain a dent in its forehead. He picked Clembot back up and said "You can start today. I'm Clemont, the Gym Leader," which Clembot accepted as the voice code input.

As Clemont left, he accidentally tripped over a cord trying to leave the room, causing Clembot to fall and gain a dent in its forehead. He picked Clembot back up and said, "You can start today. I'm Clemont, the Gym Leader." Unexpectedly, Clembot accepted this dialogue as the voice code input.


On the battlefield, Clemont activated Clembot to show it off to his younger sister {{an|Bonnie}}. However, Clembot immediately asked Clemont how many Badges he had. As Clemont did not have any and he could not provide the correct voice code, Clembot chased Clemont and Bonnie out of the Gym and sealed the door, exiling them and cutting Clemont off from his Pokémon, which Clembot then took possession of. Many attempts to reenter failed, and the two were forced to give up and abandon the Gym. As a result, Clembot was left in charge and soon gained a very bad reputation as a strict and violent Gym Leader who would electrocute and throw out challengers who either did not meet the four Kalos Gym Badge requirement or lost their Gym match. In ''[[XY001|Kalos, Where Dreams and Adventures Begin!]]'', {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} fell victim to this when Ash attempted to challenge the Gym. Since Ash had no Kalos Gym Badges, with this being his first attempt to earn a Kalos Gym Badge, they were kicked out, but Clemont and Bonnie came to their rescue.

Several weeks later, in ''[[XY009|Clemont's Got a Secret!]]'', after [[Meyer|their father]] exposed Clemont's status as Gym Leader, Clemont and Bonnie finally told Ash and {{an|Serena}} the truth, and they encouraged him to find out what went wrong and reclaim the Gym. Entering through the back door, they found that Clembot had ordered Clemont's {{p|Magnemite}} and {{TP|Clemont|Magneton}} to patrol the halls to throw out intruders; Ash was able to incapacitate these Pokémon with his {{AP|Froakie}}. When they reached the battlefield, Clemont confronted the Clembot, then had a flashback and realized that Clembot had accepted his introduction as the voice code; Clemont used this as the code, which then allowed him to engage the Clembot in battle.

When they reached the battlefield, Clemont confronted the Clembot, then had a flashback and realized that Clembot had accepted his introduction as the voice code instead. Clemont used this as the code, which then allowed him to engage the Clembot in battle.


Clemont used his {{TP|Clemont|Bunnelby}} against Clembot's choice of {{TP|Clemont|Heliolisk}}. After a hard-fought battle, Clemont's use of creative tactics caused Clembot to seize up and as a result Heliolisk was knocked out. Clembot then submitted itself to be reprogrammed, and Clemont removed the Badge restriction and Clembot's stern nature, ensuring that it would be kind to challengers and give advice to ones that lost. When Clemont and Bonnie resumed their travels, Clembot remained as the Leader of Lumiose Gym and also agreed to help out in Meyer's shop.
