Empoleon was first seen as a Prinplup in ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters!]]''. It proved to be very strong when it was battling against {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} despite its disadvantage. In [[DP027|the next episode]], it put up a good fight against [[Dawn's Piplup]]. At first Prinplup didn't want to be friends with its weaker, pre-evolved form, but after being saved by Piplup, they soon became friends. | Empoleon was first seen as a Prinplup in ''[[DP026|Getting the Pre-Contest Titters!]]''.

Kenny used Empoleon in [[DP180]] in a battle against [[Ash's Buizel]] in which it was able to defeat Buizel.

==Personality and characteristics== | |||
Natural of its species, Empoleon is always very proud and doesn't give others respect until they have, in its eyes, 'proved themselves worthy'. This was seen both when it met [[Dawn's Piplup]] for the first time and when it was pitted against [[Ash's Buizel]]. Like Buizel, Empoleon can be quite headstrong, developing their short-lived rivalry over a trivial issue, after Buizel's {{m|SonicBoom}} attack nearly hit its target. | |||
