| Burgundy was first seen in ''[[BW019|A Connoisseur's Revenge!]]'' working in a lavish [[Poké Mart]] that lied somewhere between [[Pinwheel Forest]] and the [[Skyarrow Bridge]]. She called {{Ash}} over, who was waiting in a long line to see a Connaisseuse, to visit her shop instead. He accepted this offer and she immediately pulled him inside her stall and took an interest in {{AP|Pikachu}}, a rare {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in [[Unova]]. She was then asked to evaluate {{AP|Sewaddle|Swadloon}} and decided that, because of its [[Ability]] {{a|Swarm}}, it was a poor Pokémon for Ash's team. She then demanded to see the rest of his [[Party|party]], finding something wrong with each of them. Her actions and evalutation towards the Pokémon caused each and every one of them to attack her. Furious, she exclaimed that Ash is not compatible with any of his Pokémon and demanded that he replace them immediately. | | Burgundy was first seen in ''[[BW019|A Connoisseur's Revenge!]]'' working in a lavish [[Poké Mart]], where she reveals her hatred for Cilan and goal to become an S class Connaisseuse. |

| Suddenly, {{an|Cilan}} and {{an|Iris}} interrupted the session after losing track of where Ash had gone. Burgundy, recognizing Cilan, screamed and pointed at him; Cilan, recognizing her in return, then explained that she challenged him at the [[Striaton Gym]] a while back and that he managed to defeat her {{p|Oshawott}} with his {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}. Burgundy explained that his evaluation of her Oshawott had motivated her to want revenge against him, even to go as far as to study on how to become a Pokémon Connaisseuse so she could out do him. When she felt she was ready, she had returned to [[Striaton City]], completely motivated to re-challenge Cilan. However, [[Chili]] and [[Cress]] explained to her that Cilan had left to travel, crushing Burgundy's spirit; left with little choice, Burgundy battled Chili and won the {{Badge|Trio}}.

| Burgundy challenged Cilan to a two-on-two [[Pokémon battle]] and used her {{p|Dewott}} and her premium-brand Pokémon {{p|Sawsbuck}}. Before the match started, she made Cilan promise that he will accept her evaluation that Ash is incompatible with all of his Pokémon and that he would have to let her replace all of them. Cilan agreed, much to Ash's dislike. Both Dewott and Sawsbuck were easily defeated by [[Cilan's Dwebble]] and Pansage respectively. In the end, Burgundy decided to leave the Poké Mart to travel on her own. She vowed that the next time she and Cilan meet that she would defeat him.

| Burgundy reappeared in ''[[BW039|Reunion Battles In Nimbasa!]]'' to participate in the [[Club Battle]] tournament. She was put up against Ash in her first battle where she revealed her new premium-brand, a {{p|Stoutland}}. Ash vowed to prove to her that he did have a good relationship with all his Pokémon, and sent out his previously unused {{AP|Palpitoad}}. He managed to defeat Burgundy, pushing her out of the tournament in her first battle. She stayed for the remainder of the tournament in order to watch Cilan compete, and to intimidate and insult him before his matches. In the final round, she challenged Cilan to a Connoisseur showdown to see who could evaluate Iris and Ash's battle the best with [[Stephan]] being a judge. However, she admitted defeat early in the showdown and she and Cilan watched the remainder of the battle in silence. After the tournament, Burgundy promised to keep working hard and trying her best so she could be better the next time she and Cilan cross paths so that they could finish their Connoisseur showdown. After some words of encouragement from Cilan, she says goodbye. | |
