Bayleef was introduced in ''[[EP126|The Chikorita Rescue]]'' as a {{p|Chikorita}}. Chikorita was especially stubborn, going so far as to fight against [[Ash's Charizard]] despite obvious overwhelming odds; she was injured in the process. {{TRT}} tried to convince the stubborn Pokémon to join them, but Ash eventually won her confidence by saving her from Team Rocket.

Chikorita made her Gym battle debut in ''[[EP131|Fighting Flyer with Fire]]'', where she took on [[Falkner]]'s {{p|Hoothoot}}. Ash showed that he believes in Chikorita by defending his choice to a disapproving Falkner, but Chikorita was outclassed by the {{type|Flying}}, who dodged her {{m|Vine Whip}} and {{m|Razor Leaf}} and then knocked it out with a {{m|Peck}} and a {{m|Tackle}}.

Chikorita's jealousy of Pikachu and resentment towards Ash arose in ''[[EP136|Chikorita's Big Upset]]''. Ash tried to withdraw Chikorita for Pikachu in a battle with a Trainer's {{p|Raticate}}, but Chikorita would not allow this and the battle was suspended by the time Ash caught her. She later ran away during the night and stumbled into the territory of a group of urban Pokémon. Lashing out at the {{p|Primeape|leader}}, she knocked it out and became the new leader. Team Rocket tried to take her and the other Pokémon with their robot made out of tires, but Ash risked himself to save her, and Chikorita returned the favor by catching him when he fell. The two then took down the robot and Chikorita forgave Ash and became friends with Pikachu.
