In ''[[SS015|Putting the Air Back in Aerodactyl]]'', Gary worked on [[Sayda Island]] with [[Dora]]. There, he revived an {{p|Aerodactyl}} from an [[Old Amber]]. At first the Aerodactyl was afraid of him and every other person on the island, but Gary soon gained its trust after he fed it some fruit that Aerodactyl used to eat.

Eventually, he moved to the [[Sinnoh]] region where he is currently conducting his research. He sent a postcard to Ash from there in ''[[AG187|The Unbeatable Lightness of Seeing!]]'', which motivated Ash to not to get himself down after a loss and keep fighting, much like he did during their rivalry.


In ''[[AG192|Home Is Where The Start Is!]]'', Gary reunited with Ash and battled him with his {{TP|Gary|Electivire}} and defeated Ash's Pikachu once more.

During his time in Sinnoh, Gary became an assistant of [[Professor Rowan]]. As before, Gary conducts his research on rare Pokémon, including [[Fossil|Fossil Pokémon]] and [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Gary demonstrated more maturity and more respect for other people, principally with Ash. Upon meeting him, {{an|Dawn}} thought that he was a poet like his {{an|Professor Oak|grandfather}}.

The day he started out on his Pokémon journey, he came off as an arrogant Trainer, much like his {{pkmn|games|game}} counterpart, {{ga|Blue}}. His chosen [[starter Pokémon]] was {{TP|Gary|Squirtle}}, which was actually the same Pokémon that Ash originally wanted to start with. He even had a group of [[Gary's cheerleaders|cheerleaders]] who cheered him on in all his battles and would go so far as crying whenever he lost. He didn't walk on his journeys like most Trainers did; instead he had his own sporty red convertible with a chauffeur. Gary loved when he got a chance to make fun of Ash by bragging about how far behind Ash was compared to him. He also gave Ash the pet-name of "Ashy-boy" (Japanese: {{tt|"Satoshi''-kun''"|Satoshi is Ash's Japanese name and ''-kun'' is a Japanese honorific, kun can be considered insulting when not used among friends}}), which occasionally seems to annoy him. His style of training at this point was to capture many Pokémon and to use the strongest, as a stark contrast to Ash, who focused on developing a bond with his Pokémon.

His arrogance continued overtime during Ash’s journey in Kanto until he challenged the [[Viridian City]] [[Gym Leader]], {{an|Giovanni}}, to a Pokémon battle for his final (but not necessary) Badge in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' where his was brutally defeated by {{OBP|Mewtwo|original series}}. However, this still didn't change his arrogance. It would take a loss at the [[Pokémon League]] way later on against [[Melissa]] for him to finally realize that he greatly needed to change himself.

In his few appearances during the Johto season, he seemed to have become the complete opposite of who he was. He became polite and respectful to others, including Ash.
