Cheren, along with Bianca, has been friends with Black since they were small children. As the three played together, Black would eventually gain an interest in challenging the {{un|Pokémon League}}. Over the next several years, Cheren would support his friend's dream.

Cheren debuted in ''[[PS462|Choices]]''. He and Bianca met with [[Professor Juniper]] at her laboratory to ask why the [[starter Pokémon]] and [[Pokédex]]es that were supposed to be delivered to Black's house haven't arrived yet. They discovered that two of the starters had gotten into a fight with each other while the third ran off elsewhere. While Professor Juniper cleaned up the mess, Bianca gave {{TP|Cheren|Snivy}} to Cheren, stating that it resembled him. They tracked [[Bo|Tepig]]'s footprints to a nearby cliff side, where they found it and Black stuck in a tree, being attacked by a [[wild Pokémon]]. Cheren suggested helping his friend, but Professor Juniper refused, wanting to use the moment to see if Black was still worthy of owning a Pokédex despite the trouble he caused her. By cooperating with Tepig, Black managed to defeat the {{p|Sewaddle}} that was attacking him. With Sewaddle defeated, Black immediately left to start his journey, leaving the others behind. Later, Cheren and Bianca realized that because of Black's negligence, their Pokédexes ended up left in a puddle, causing them to malfunction.  

In ''[[PS463|A Nickname for Tepig]]'', Cheren and Bianca had a quick sparring match that ended in Cheren's victory. Professor Juniper revealed that repairing the Pokédexes would take longer than she expected. With Black having the only working Pokédex, Professor Junper told Cheren and Bianca to go find Black and tell him to take care of it.  

In ''[[PS469|Welcome to Striaton City!!]]'', Cheren and Bianca found Black at the [[Striaton Gym]]. They chastised Black for leaving home without them and causing their Pokédexes to get damaged. Seeing the conversation, the Gym Leaders, [[Cilan]], [[Cress]], and [[Chili]], allowed Cheren and Bianca to participate in the Gym challenge alongside Black. Together, Cheren, Bianca, and Black managed to defeat the triplet Gym Leaders and earn the {{badge|Trio}}. Afterward, Black apologized for his actions and gave Cheren and Bianca a [[Xtransceiver]] each so they could keep in touch. After going their separate ways, Cheren and Bianca realized they never exchanged numbers with Black, forcing them to go and find him again.

In ''[[PS518|True Friends]]'', Cheren and Black faced each other in the finals. Cheren revealed that after their previous encounter, he met [[Zinzolin]], one of the [[Seven Sages]], who convinced him to follow Team Plasma's ideals and pursue strength. Their battle eventually took them to the roof of the League building, where they had one final clash, ending in Black's victory. After passing out from a large amount of [[Dream Mist]] that filled the area, Cheren and Black shared a memory of their childhood when Cheren promised to support Black's dream. Furious over his friend's manipulation, Black called out to Team Plasma and dared they come out of hiding.  

Two years later, in ''[[PS525|The Transfer Student]]'', Cheren was revealed to have become a teacher at the [[Aspertia City]] [[Pokémon academy|Trainers' School]]. On his first day, he forced {{adv|Blake}}, [[Hugh]], and Leo to sit outside for starting an argument. Shortly after, he introduced the new transfer student, {{adv|Whitley}}, to the class. Hearing the conversation Blake and others were having about Whitley, Cheren decided to skip the lecture and instead had the students battle each other. Separated into two separate groups by gender, Blake and Whitley competed against their classmates and won, earning themselves a Pokédex from Bianca.
