In ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', Roggenrola helped rescue the members of the [[Forces of Nature]] from Team Rocket. It repeatedly used Flash Cannon on [[Dr. Zager]]'s helicopter until it was joined by Pikachu, [[Iris's Axew]] and {{TP|Iris|Emolga}} and [[Cilan's Pansage]] to cause the forcefield prisons trapping the trio to break. | In ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends!

Roggenrola was Ash's final Pokémon in his [[Driftveil Gym]] battle against Clay and his {{p|Excadrill}}, despite the type disadvantage, Ash chose Roggenrola as he wanted it to endure Excadrill's powerful attacks and then counterattack. Roggenrola used Sandstorm creating a {{weather|Sandstorm}}, but this did no visible damage to Excadrill being a part {{type|Ground}} and part {{type|Steel}} | Roggenrola was Ash's final Pokémon in his [[Driftveil Gym]] battle against Clay and his {{p|Excadrill}}, despite the type disadvantage, Ash chose Roggenrola as he wanted it to endure Excadrill's powerful attacks and then counterattack. Roggenrola used Sandstorm creating a {{weather|Sandstorm}}, but this did no visible damage to Excadrill being a part {{type|Ground}} and part {{type|Steel}}. Excadrill then used Drill Run underground, hitting Roggenrola multiple times by going in and out of the ground. Excadrill then used its [[one-hit knockout move]] {{m|Horn Drill}} on Roggenrola, but Roggenrola endured it thanks to its {{a|Sturdy}}, but looked damaged. It then immediately evolved into a {{p|Boldore}}. Excadrill used Horn Drill again but was blocked by Sturdy once more, and then went for another Drill Run. Boldore caught this and used its red stones to communicate with Ash about its new move, Rock Blast. Using Rock Blast Boldore was able to deal damage to Excadrill and knock it back. It then communicated its other new move Rock Smash, which it immediately used. Excadrill used Rock Smash as well and whilst both were powerful, Boldore's Rock Smash overpowered Excadrill's, defeating the Subterrene Pokémon and winning Ash the {{badge|Quake}}. | ||
In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', Ash used Boldore in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] against {{an|Bianca}}'s newly evolved {{p|Escavalier}} and [[Professor Juniper]]'s newly evolved {{p|Accelgor}}, accompanied by Cilan and his {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}}. Boldore was able to hit both of its opponents with Rock Smash at the start of the battle and alongside Crustle, held back Escavalier's {{m|Fury Attack}}. While Escavalier was dodging Crustle's {{m|Rock Slide}}, Boldore was able to hit it hard with Rock Blast until Accelgor came to Escavalier's defense with {{m|Substitute}}. Taking advantage of a weakened Accelgor, Ash ordered Boldore to use Flash Cannon on it, but Escavalier was able to deflect the attack. Boldore was knocked back into Crustle by Escavalier's Fury Attack and, protecting its partner, was knocked out by Escavalier and Accelgor's combined {{m|Hyper Beam}} attacks. | In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', Ash used Boldore in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] against {{an|Bianca}}'s newly evolved {{p|Escavalier}} and [[Professor Juniper]]'s newly evolved {{p|Accelgor}}, accompanied by Cilan and his {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}}.

As a Roggenrola, Boldore has shown to be very resourceful, using a stand alone bowl for defense, as well as using its Flash Cannon attack to destroy falling boulders, or its Sandstorm to put out a fire. It also appears to care deeply for others and goes out of its way to ensure their safety, such as the lengths it went to save the other Roggenrola, even to go as far as to risk its life facing Team Rocket's mecha head on. It also made sure other wild Pokémon in the general area knew of the impending danger, despite the issue not involving them. This is also seen in ''[[BW035|Where Did You Go, Audino?]]'' when it sought out the missing {{p|Audino}} with its hearing ability. It was also shown to get quite excitable, bouncing up and down, when helping to save the day in ''[[BW048|Battle for the Underground]]'' and ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]''. | As a Roggenrola, Boldore has shown to be very resourceful, using a stand alone bowl for defense, as well as using its Flash Cannon attack to destroy falling boulders, or its Sandstorm to put out a fire.
