Bianca made her debut appearance in ''[[BW013|Minccino-Neat and Tidy!]]'', where she was sent by [[Professor Juniper]] to deliver a Badge case to {{Ash}}. Unfortunately, Bianca ended up knocking Ash and {{an|Cilan}} into a nearby stream. Despite being older than Ash, she has only just started her journey due to her father not allowing her to become a Trainer when she turned ten.  

She also had a battle against {{Ash}}, where she used her Pignite against his Pikachu. Ash was planning to use Oshawott for said battle but Bianca demanded that he use Pikachu. She lost the battle after putting up a hard fight.

Prior to ''[[BW024|Emolga the Irresistible!]]'', Bianca joined the group and accompanied them on their way to [[Nimbasa City]]. She was enjoying an evening lunch with Ash and {{ashfr}} when [[Iris's Axew]] drops a fruit down a hill where it is caught by a wild {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}. She then runs after Emolga and smothers her in hugs. Determined to catch Emolga, Bianca challenges her to battle Minccino, who ends up losing. Emolga then flies off and Bianca chases after her. After several failed attempts at catching Emolga, Bianca is crushed to find that Emolga accepts Iris as her Trainer instead.

In ''[[BW025|Emolga and the New Volt Switch!]]'', Bianca wanted to have a battle with {{an|Iris}}'s newly caught Emolga. However, Emolga had other interests besides battling and kept using {{m|Volt Switch}} to get other Pokémon to battle Bianca instead including [[Iris's Excadrill]], [[Cilan's Pansage]] and [[Ash's Snivy]]. She also used her Pignite against Snivy for a short training session. After learning Ash earned three Badges already, Bianca leaves the group in hopes to win more Badges on her own.

Bianca met up with Ash and friends again in [[Nimbasa Town]] in ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]''. She was enamored with [[Luke's Zorua]] and attempted to catch her not knowing that she already had a Trainer. Bianca also decided to enter the [[Club Battle]] tournament along with the group. In [[BW040|the next episode]], she battled [[Stephan]] in the first round of the tournament where she used her Minccino against his {{p|Zebstrika}}. Zebstrika proved too powerful and defeated Minccino, thus knocking Bianca out of the tournament.

Bianca reappeared in ''[[BW049|Enter Elesa, Electrifying Gym Leader!]]'' where she battled [[Elesa]] in a Gym battle. However, all of her Pokémon were defeated by Elesa's Zebstrika.

Bianca reappeared in ''[[BW062|Crisis at Chargestone Cave!]]'' where she revealed that she was going to trade her {{p|Shelmet}} for [[Professor Juniper]]'s {{p|Karrablast}}. However, before that, the wild {{p|Galvantula}} and {{p|Joltik}} in the area started to cause trouble so she decided to help Ash and the group deal with the problem. In the end it was revealed that {{TRT}} was behind the whole ordeal and after helping defeat them, Bianca met up with Professor Juniper.

In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'' Professor Juniper and Bianca traded their Shelmet and Karrablast together, making them [[evolution|evolve]] into {{p|Accelgor}} and {{p|Escavalier}} respectively. However, as soon as it had evolved, Escavalier started disobeying Bianca. To improve their team work, Bianca and Professor Juniper decided to use their new Pokémon in a [[Tag Battle]] against [[Cilan's Crustle]] and [[Ash's Boldore]]. As Accelgor protected Escavalier by using {{m|Substitute}}, the two Pokémon started to work better as a team, and they were able to defeat {{p|Boldore}} together. Despite that both Accelgor and Escavalier were then defeated by Cilan's {{p|Crustle}}, Bianca was glad that her new Pokémon was now obeying her.

Bianca reappeared in ''[[BW070|The Clubsplosion Begins!]]'' in order to register in the [[Clubsplosion]] tournament. She discovered that her first opponent was [[Trip]] who took her very lightly as an opponent. Her battle with Trip began in ''[[BW071|Search for the Clubultimate!]]'' where it was revealed she had evolved her Pignite into {{TP|Bianca|Emboar}}. Though Emboar was on the field, Bianca was nowhere to be found. A bit later she runs onto the battlefield, claiming that she was late because she was too busy touching [[Domon]]'s {{p|Mienshao}}'s muscles, then trips and falls on her face. However it does not get her down and is as eager as ever to get the battle started.  

She has Emboar attack with moves like {{m|Arm Thrust}} and {{m|Hammer Arm}} but Trip has {{TP|Trip|Conkeldurr}} block with its concrete pillars. Bianca becomes concerned about losing the battle after Emboar becomes trapped in Conkeldurr's {{m|Rock Tomb}} and cannot evade its {{m|Stone Edge}}. However, [[BW072|in the next episode]], Bianca cried to Emboar to do something before the attack made contact. A smile then comes to her face seeing that Emboar actually caught the stones in his arms. She then commanded him to use {{m|Fling}} to send the rocks back at Conkeldurr. Conkeldurr becomes distracted by it and Bianca has Emboar take its concrete pillars from it then used Fling again to throw them back at it, which knocked out Conkeldurr and got Bianca through to the second round.

Later on, Bianca discovered that her opponent for the second round was [[Georgia]] and her {{p|Bisharp}} whom she defeated rather quickly. She then battled Stephan again in ''[[BW073|Commanding the Clubsplosion Crown!]]'', but lost.

She reappeared in ''[[BW103|Curtain Up, Unova League!]]'' and met up with {{Ash}}, {{an|Iris}} and {{an|Cilan}} in [[Vertress City]] to compete in the [[Vertress Conference]]. In the first round she battled with her Emboar against {{un|Michael}} and his {{p|Watchog}} and won. In ''[[BW104|Mission: Defeat Your Rival!]]'', in the second round, she battled {{un|Cameron}} using her Escavalier and Emboar against the latter's {{p|Samurott}} and {{TP|Cameron|Riolu}}. Her Pokémon put a good fight but were eventually defeated, resulting in her elimination from the league, much to her disappointment. She stayed for the remainder of the league, watching all the other battles. In [[BW108]] she participated in the closing ceremonies of the Vertress Conference. Afterwards she bought ice creams for Ash, his friends, Stephan and Cameron and his [[Cameron's Lucario|Lucario]]. She then said farewell to the group and left.

Much like her game counterpart, Bianca is a sweet girl but is also an airhead. She is fairly similar to Ash when he'd just started his journey. She is also somewhat clumsy and unorganized. Every time she meets up with the main characters, she runs excitedly towards them then trips causing her to collide with Ash and knocking him into a body of water. Afterwards, she apologizes to him profusely.

Bianca has a soft spot for cute Pokémon like {{p|Minccino}}, {{p|Emolga}}, and {{p|Zorua}} and will stop at nothing to try to capture them. In fact, she spends a few episodes of the Club Battle arc trying to get a hold of Luke's Zorua who keeps disguising herself to trick her. Bianca also tends to think of odd schemes to lure a Pokémon out like planting a dirty spoon under a cloche so she can trap Minccino. If her attempts at capturing fail, she will often have a temper tantrum about it. She cares dearly for her Pokémon, often crying out in sorrow when they're defeated. It was revealed in ''[[BW070|The Clubsplosion Begins!]]'' that she also likes Pokémon with muscles such as {{p|Sawk}}, {{p|Throh}} and {{p|Mienshao}}.

She tends to do things at her own pace which often involves rushing and forcing people along with her. She was impatient to capture Minccino, as well as during battles, to the point that Ash, Iris, and Cilan have trouble keeping up with her. She wastes no time when giving her Pokémon commands, though this raw speed and power causes her many blunders.

|desc=Minccino first appeared in ''[[BW013|Minccino-Neat and Tidy!]]'' where he stole {{Ash}}'s Badge case. Bianca ends up capturing him at the end of the episode by accident when he attempted to clean her dirty [[Poké Ball]].}}

|desc=Bianca [[trade]]d her Shelmet for [[Professor Juniper]]'s {{p|Karrablast}} so that both Pokémon could evolve. However once it did, {{p|Escavalier}} started to chase her down and also refused to listen to her commands. During its [[Tag Battle]] with {{p|Accelgor}} as its partner, it learned to cooperate with both it and Bianca.

In ''[[BW104|Mission: Defeat Your Rival!]]'', Bianca used Escavalier as her first Pokémon in her Vertress Conference battle against {{un|Cameron}} and his Samurott. Despite withstanding many of Samurott's attacks with Iron Defense, Escavalier's endurance finally ran out, and it was defeated with a {{m|Razor Shell}}.

As a Karrablast, Escavalier's known moves were {{m|Peck}} and {{m|Take Down}}.<br/>

Escavalier's known moves are {{m|Fury Attack}}, {{m|Quick Guard}}{{tt|*|Not used, just mentioned in the Pokédex}}, {{m|Iron Defense}}, and {{m|Hyper Beam}}.}}

In ''[[BW062|Crisis at Chargestone Cave!]]'', Bianca mentioned that she had come to the area to trade Shelmet for Professor Juniper's {{p|Karrablast}}, so that they may evolve. In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', before the trade, Shelmet battled with the Karrablast it would soon be traded for. However with its timid nature, all Shelmet did was use {{m|Protect}}. It is because of this tactic that the battle was called off as it was clear the battle would drag on at that rate.
