Casey first appeared as a novice trainer in ''[[EP118|The Double Trouble Header]]'', where {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}} and {{an|Brock}} witnessed her capturing a {{p|Rattata}}. Soon after her appearance, Casey battled against Ash. Despite her overconfidence, she was easily defeated by Ash, who used just his {{AP|Charizard}}.
After her defeat, Casey was tricked by {{TRT}} into believing that Ash had cheated, prompting her to face Ash again, this time battling his {{AP|Pikachu}} using her {{TP|Casey|Chikorita}}. However, the battle was interrupted by [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}, who tried to capture Chikorita and Pikachu. In the end, Ash and Casey united to defeat Team Rocket and became friends.

She returned in person in ''[[EP161|The Bug Stops Here]]'', where Ash competed against her in the [[Bug-Catching Contest]]. She decided to win at all costs with her Chikorita, which almost caused Ash's defeat. {{p|Chikorita}} evolved to defeat Team Rocket more than once. Before leaving, Ash presented her with the Beedrill he was allowed to keep because he won the competition, because of her admiration for yellow and black striped Pokémon.

She and her family are fans of the {{p|Electabuzz}} [[baseball]] team, and she loves {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} with the team's colors, yellow with black stripes. She started her {{pkmn|journey}} with a {{TP|Casey|Chikorita}}, which she received from [[Professor Elm]].

In the original Japanese version, Casey speaks with a {{wp|Kansai dialect}}, in which natives to {{wp|Osaka}}, {{wp|Japan}} speak. Adding to this is Casey's love of the Electabuzz baseball team, an analogue to the real world Osaka baseball team, the {{wp|Hanshin Tigers}}. Not only is there a similarity in both Electabuzz and tigers being striped animals, but the Hanshin Tigers are known for having a very loyal fanbase.

Casey has been compared to {{Ash}} in his early days of [[Pokémon training]]. However, they have different styles of training, and different tastes in Pokémon.

|desc={{p|Elekid}} first appeared as a wild Pokémon where it interrupted a picnic that {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} were having. Casey came by and noticed the Elekid after defeating {{TRT}} the second time in the episode. As Elekid is the pre-evolution of her {{p|Electabuzz|favorite mascot}} of the [[baseball]] team, Casey challenged it to a battle with her {{TP|Casey|Meganium}}. Even though it put up a great fight, it was no match for Meganium's strength. As a result, Casey was able to catch Elekid. Since Elekid was caught, {{AP|Larvitar}} felt sad as it wasn't able to see its newly made friend. Casey promised to take care of her newly captured Pokémon and friend. Elekid appeared next to Casey and Meganium when Casey said goodbye to Ash and his friends singing the song of the Electabuzz team.
