Dia debuted in ''[[SM100|Battling the Beast Within!]]'', where he encountered {{Ash}} and {{AP|Pikachu}} when they found themselves transported to his home world from an alternate [[Melemele Island]] by a {{Shiny}} {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Shiny Tapu Koko|Tapu Koko}} and the {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Koko}} of Ash's world. Ash and Pikachu were attacked by a Guzzlord, but Dia saved them using his friend {{p|Zeraora}}. After introducing himself, he explained to Ash what had happened to his world and then had a battle against Ash, which Dia was able to win. Dia eventually took Ash to some ruins, which Ash recognized as the [[Pokémon School]]. | |||
In ''[[SM101|Parallel Friendships!]]'', Dia explained to Ash and Pikachu how his universe is different compared to his. He later explained that the reason Ash was unable to use a [[Z-Ring]] is because his Tapu Koko left the [[Alola]] [[region]] and all life was destroyed by Guzzlord. Since that time, Dia became disillusioned with Tapu Koko and believed that his efforts of stopping the {{an|Ultra Beasts|Ultra Beast}} were hopeless. However, all of that changed when he witnessed Ash and Pikachu's {{pkmn|training}}, which turned into a competitive battle against Zeraora. While Pikachu won the match, it reinvigorated Dia and Zeraora's ambitions. | In ''[[SM101|Parallel Friendships!]]'', Dia explained to Ash and Pikachu how his universe is different compared to his.

The battle also attracted Guzzlord's attention, so Dia, Ash, Pikachu, and Zeraora were forced to put a new plan into action, luring Guzzlord to the [[Ultra Wormhole]] below the debris. When they attempted to ensnare the Ultra Beast in Pikachu's {{m|Electroweb}}, Guzzlord fought back. Dia wanted to retreat, but Ash refused to give up. Just when they were about to be consumed by Guzzlord, Tapu Koko appeared and trapped it with its electricity. Tapu Koko reactivated Ash and Dia's Z-Rings, and together, they used their [[Z-Move]]s to push Guzzlord through the Ultra Wormhole. Dia thanked Ash for his help, and realized that it was time for Ash to return to his home world. He and Zeraora battled Ash again, which caused a dimensional rift to open up and allow Ash and Pikachu to return to their home world. The pair said goodbye to Dia and Zeraora and promised to battle them again one day before going their separate ways. | The battle also attracted Guzzlord's attention, so Dia, Ash, Pikachu, and Zeraora were forced to put a new plan into action, luring Guzzlord to the [[Ultra Wormhole]] below the debris.

Dia is a gruff and stoic individual, which was brought by his experiences with {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Guzzlord}}. However, he also has a hidden kindhearted and generous nature, as he was eager to share his story with {{Ash}}, in addition to offering him food and shelter. Dia is also very competitive in {{pkmn|battle}}. He used {{p|Zeraora}}'s strong will and power to overwhelm his opponents. | Dia is a gruff and stoic individual, which was brought by his experiences with {{DL|Ultra Beasts (anime)|Ultra Ruin Guzzlord|Guzzlord}}.

He is also incredibly optimistic and maintained a clear focus on his goal; to send Guzzlord back to its home world. Dia was well aware of the dangers of the situation, hence his initial hesitance and opposition to Ash's assistance. After seeing Ash's performance in battle and strong [[friendship]] with {{AP|Pikachu}}, he allowed Ash to join his mission. Ash served as a catalyst and helped reinvigorate Dia and Zeraora's focus and ambitions. | He is also incredibly optimistic and maintained a clear focus on his goal; to send Guzzlord back to its home world.

Zeraora has been shown to be a solitary Pokémon. Its close companionship with Dia and the fact that it offered a [[Sitrus Berry]] to Pikachu is evidence of its kind nature. | Zeraora has been shown to be a solitary Pokémon.
