Celosia debuted in ''[[XY094|From A to Z!]]''. She was first seen leading a group of {{tc|Team Flare Grunt}}s to recapture the {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Zygarde Core}} that had [[SS035|escaped]] from [[Lysandre Labs]]. She managed to find the {{p|Zygarde}} Core, but thanks to {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Sawyer]]'s interference, she was unable to retrieve it. When she later informed [[Xerosic]] of what had happened, she was told that [[Bryony]] had been tasked with capturing [[Squishy|the Core]] as well. During the following night, Celosia led yet another group of Grunts in an attempt to capture the Core, but with Ash and Sawyer covering {{an|Serena}}, {{an|Clemont}}, and {{an|Bonnie}}'s retreat, she was once again unsuccessful.

She reappeared in ''[[XY102|Meeting at Terminus Cave!]]'', teaming up with Bryony to retrieve the Core (now called Squishy by Bonnie) in [[Terminus Cave]]. After a prolonged struggle, during which {{TRT}} interfered as well, Team Flare was forced to retreat, as they were unable to defeat [[Ash's Greninja]] and Squishy had fled. In the [[XY103|next episode]], she, along with Bryony and several Grunts, monitored sensors to find Squishy. Celosia and Bryony also ordered two Grunts to watch Ash and his friends. Later, the sensors caught energy waves coming from Squishy and [[Z2]], and managed to determine Squishy's location. However, they were unable to make it in time and lost sight of Squishy, as it had stopped emitting energy waves. Celosia and Bryony then ordered the pursuit squad to withdraw, as they thought Squishy probably wouldn't return to Ash and his friends, and decided to narrow their search.

Celosia appeared again in ''[[XY132|A Towering Takeover!]]'', during Team Flare's attack on [[Lumiose City]], where she appeared before Ash and [[Alain]]. Celosia revealed she was ordered to capture Ash and told him about Alain's affiliation with Team Flare. She then had her Drapion use {{m|Confuse Ray}} on Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}}, making them lose consciousness, allowing Team Flare to capture them. In [[XY133|the following episode]], Celosia was seen at Lysandre Labs with [[Mable]], where the two saw the helicopter, containing Serena, [[Mairin]], [[Professor Sycamore]], and Team Rocket, nearing their hideout through their security cameras. Upon the infiltration of their base, in [[XY134|the next episode]], Celosia went to stop Serena and the rest. She and her Drapion then faced Team Rocket in battle. Celosia continued battling in ''[[XY135|Rocking Kalos Defenses!]]'' and was now joined by Mable and her {{p|Weavile}}. However, the two Scientists were quickly defeated and subdued in Team Rocket's net trap.

In ''[[XY134|The Right Hero for the Right Job!]]'', Celosia used Drapion to attack {{an|Serena}}, {{TRT}}, [[Mairin]], and [[Professor Sycamore]] after they infiltrated [[Lysandre Labs]]. Drapion then had to face Team Rocket's {{TP|Jessie|Gourgeist}} and {{TP|James|Inkay}}. It continued the battle in [[XY135|the following episode]] and was now aided by [[Mable]]'s {{p|Weavile}}. The two Pokémon attacks, however, were countered by [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]]'s {{m|Mirror Coat}}. Drapion, Weavile, and their Trainers were then subdued by Team Rocket's net.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===

[[File:Team Flare Scientists Adventures.png|thumb|right|300px|Celosia in Pokémon Adventures]]

Celosia makes her first appearance in the {{chap|X & Y}} alongside her fellow Team Flare members. She, Bryony, and Xerosic witness the legendary Pokémon {{p|Xerneas}} and {{p|Yveltal}} rampage through [[Vaniville Town]] during a battle with each other. They note that they need the Pokémon to power their ultimate weapon, but currently have no means as to capture them.

At [[Santalune City]], Celosia attacks {{adv|X}} and his friends. After [[Shauna]] runs away from her friends after an argument, she is lured into an illusion set up by Celosia. The illusion consists of a {{p|Furfrou}} trimmer demonstrating the various trims of Furfrou. The trimmer gives Shauna a sword so that she can practice her dream of becoming a Furfrou dream as well. The sword turns out to be a {{p|Honedge}}, which possesses Shauna and puts her under Celosia's control. Celosia has Shauna sneak into the Santalune Gym, where her friends are staying for the night with Gym Leader [[Viola]]. Shauna steals [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Kanga]]'s {{DL|Mega Stone|Kangaskhanite}}, but she is discovered by {{adv|Y}}, who tries to stop her. Shauna attempts to kill Y with the Honedge, but Viola takes the blow and is knocked unconscious. Celosia takes the Mega Stone and runs off, leaving Shauna to wildly attack her friends only to fall unconscious from the strain of the possession. X chases after Celosia, but is unable to keep up with her. He is assisted by [[Korrina]], who uses her {{me|Lucario}} to help battle. Together, they battle Celosia's Pokémon in an attempt to retrieve the Kangaskhanite. Celosia's {{p|Aegislash}} manages to keep [[Korrina's Lucario]] busy enough so that Celosia can focus protecting the Kangaskhanite, but Viola reveals herself to still be conscious and uses her {{p|Surskit}} to trap Celosia with {{m|Sticky Web}}. With Celosia stuck, Li'l Kanga retrieves the Kangaskhanite, allowing her to Mega Evolve and help Lucario defeat Aegislash. Realizing that with two Mega-Evolved Pokémon she has no chance of winning, Celosia is forced to escape.

Celosia is later seen at {{rt|9|Kalos}}, talking to her fellow Team Flare member, [[Malva]], who had borrowed her Aegislash to manipulate a group of {{tc|Sky Trainer}}s to attack X and his friends. Celosia reveals that after the incident at Santalune City, she had trained her Aegislash to overcome its weaknesses and gain the ability to control several people at once. As they talk, Y overhears their conversation from afar. Celosia notices her presence and attempts to attack with her Honedge, but Y's {{p|Froakie|Kerokero}} evolves into a {{p|Frogadier}} to get her out of the way. Although she managed to slice off a large chunk of Y's hair, Celosia fails to notice Y and assumes she made a mistake. Malva and Celosia then continue their conversation and plan to begin the operation to move Xerneas soon. Celosia heads back to Team Flare's Secret HQ, where she finds the kidnapped Vaniville residents freed from their jail cells and attempting to escape. Although surprised at this, she easily apprehends them with her Aegislash's mind controlling abilities.

She and [[Emma|Essentia]] take the captured residents to Route 9, where {{p|Xerneas}} is and has them begin loading it onto a vehicle so it can be driven to their base. She notices a piece of Y's ponytail on her Honedge, leading her to realize that she wasn't wrong about being eavesdropped on. {{kal|Grace}} recognizes the hair and that it belongs to her daughter, Y, causing her to try and take the hair away. Celosia retaliates by knocking Grace onto the ground, causing Y to jump in and rashly attempt to rescue her mother. Y fails after her damaged Sky Suit causes her to fall to the ground, leaving her an easy target for Essentia and her {{p|Trevenant}}, which uses its vine manipulation ability to bind Y. X steps in to try and rescue Y, but he fails due to not knowing that only one of his Pokémon can Mega Evolve at a time. He and the rest of his friends are then captured by Essentia as well. Celosia attempts to finish the group off herself, only for [[Gurkinn]], Korrina, and [[Diantha]] to arrive in time to rescue everyone. While Essentia deals with Gurkinn and his Gengar and Malva steps in to attack Diantha, Celosia faces Korrina and her Mega Lucario by herself. Korrina expresses her desire to prevent Team Flare from taking over Kalos and reveals she had trained since their last battle. Celosia mocks Korrina by stating that Team Flare has already taken over Kalos and only members of their group will be chosen to live after their plans are realized. Korrina eventually manages to knock out Celosia, though her Lucario faints in the process. As she stands victorious, Celosia's Honedge sneaks behind Korrina and attacks her. Korrina is defeated, allowing Celosia to take her Key Stone and successfully move Xerneas back to Team Flare's Secret HQ. Celosia later gives the Key Stone to Malva, who fits it into a ring for Lysandre to use.

Later, X decides to get back at Team Flare for what they did to Korrina and his friends by infiltrating Team Flare's Secret HQ. As they watch X over the monitors, Bryony notes that the continued usage of Aegislash has caused Celosia to begin losing herself. Bryony knocks Celosia unconscious with her {{p|Bisharp}} to prevent her from going out of control.

When Xerosic battles X and his friends on the way to [[Pokémon Village]], Celosia, Mable, Aliana, and Bryony all watch via a tablet device. When it looks like Xerosic is about to be defeated, they decide to go down to assist him. Upon arriving in the area, the scientists find X's friends having gone on ahead to the Pokémon Village and decide to pick them off individually. Celosia picks Shauna as her opponent and the two begin battling. After some time, Shauna manages to defeat Celosia's {{p|Doublade}}, leaving only Aegislash to deal with. Shauna is assisted by the arrival of Korrina's Lucario, who proceeds to attack Celsosia and Aegislash, knocking them both out.

|desc={{p|Honedge}} is Celosia's second known Pokémon. It was first used to control [[Shauna]] in [[Santalune City]]. Shauna used it as a weapon when her friends discovered what was going on, but her constantly shifting in and out of her real self and mind controlled self caused her to fall unconscious. Afterward, it attempted to battle a Mega-Evolved [[Kanga and Li'l Kanga|Li'l Kanga]] but was stopped by Celosia who knew they were outmatched. Honedge reappeared at {{rt|2|Kalos}} when it sensed Y snooping on its Trainer's conversation with [[Malva]] behind a boulder, and sliced the boulder open. It cut Y's hair short but Y managed to remain hidden. A second attack from Honedge prompted Y's [[Croaky]] to evolve into a {{p|Frogadier}} and bounce very high while holding Y, to avoid the attack. At Route 9, it was used to sneak attack Korrina from behind after she defeated Celosia and Aegislash. The attack knocked out Korrina, allowing Celosia to steal her Key Stone.

|epnum=PAXY05

|desc={{p|Aegislash}} is Celosia's third known Pokémon. She was first used to create an illusion with her powers and helped in taking over [[Shauna]]'s mind. Later, she was used to battle {{adv|X}} to retrieve his stolen {{DL|Mega Stone|Kangaskhanite}}. She also battled [[Korrina]]'s [[Mega Evolution|Mega]] {{TP|Korrina|Lucario}}, who prevented Aegislash from controlling X and friends with its [[Aura]]. Eventually, she was defeated by the Mega-Evolved Lucario and Li'l Kanga. Afterward, she fled with her Trainer after realizing they were outmatched. She was used again to control fifteen Sky Trainers to attack X and his friends who were on [[Cassius]]' helicopter heading towards [[Cyllage City]]. Celosia has mentioned that she has been training her to overcome her flaws. She later faced against Korrina and her Mega Lucario during the attempt to move Xerneas to Team Flare's Secret HQ. Although Aegislash was defeated, Korrina's Lucario fainted in the process. On the route to Pokémon Village, Aegislash was used to battle against Shauna. She was defeated after Korrina's Lucario arrived and used {{m|Foresight}} to allow {{m|Aura Sphere}} to hit her.

|epnum=PAXY34

|desc={{p|Doublade}} is Celosia's fourth known Pokémon. Celosia used it in her battle against Shauna on the route to [[Pokémon Village]]. After lowering its strength with {{m|Play Rough}}, Shauna had her {{p|Skitty|Neko}} knock it out with {{m|Feint Attack}}.

|epnum=PAXY05

|desc={{p|Furfrou}} was created as an illusion by Celosia's Aegislash while disguised as a Furfrou trimmer. Shauna had mistakenly believed it to be her missing one. As the trimmer, she trims the Furfrou into the Pharaoh, Debutante, Dandy, and Matron Trims. After Shauna had been possessed by Celosia's Honedge the illusion disappears.}}
