Prior to ''[[XY064|Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!]]'', Sawyer was living in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]]. He went to [[Littleroot Town]] to visit [[Professor Birch]] in order to get his {{pkmn|journey}} started, and he chose {{p|Treecko}} as his [[first partner Pokémon]]. With {{TP|Sawyer|Treecko}}, he battled a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Taillow}} and later met the [[Hoenn League]] [[Pokémon Champion]], {{Steven}}, along with his {{TP|Steven|Metagross}}. At some point, he traveled from Hoenn to [[Kalos]]. | |||
===''[[Pokémon the Series: XY]]''=== | |||
Sawyer physically debuted in ''[[XY064|Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!]]'', where he had a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} at the [[Lumiose Gym]] against {{an|Clemont}}, who was training for his battle against {{Ash}}. His Treecko was easily defeated by {{TP|Clemont|Luxray}}'s {{m|Wild Charge}} despite the type-advantage.

In ''[[XY073|A Fashionable Battle!]]'', Sawyer intended to challenge the [[Laverre Gym]], only to hear it was closed. Right at that moment Ash arrived, as he wanted to challenge the Gym as well. Sawyer reunited with Clemont and introduced himself to Ash, {{an|Bonnie}} and {{an|Serena}}. Soon after, he had a [[Double Battle]] against Ash, which was postponed when they noticed a fashion show going on. He was later picked by [[Linnea]] to battle [[Valerie]] as part of the fashion show. He used his {{p|Bagon}} against Valerie's {{p|Spritzee}}, but was quickly defeated. | In ''[[XY073|A Fashionable Battle!]]'', Sawyer intended to challenge the [[Laverre Gym]], only to hear it was closed.

In ''[[XY074|Fairy-Type Trickery!]]'', Sawyer and his Treecko watched and analyzed Ash's Gym battle against Valerie together. In ''[[XY075|Rivals: Today and Tomorrow!]]'', he lost his notebook, but later found it thanks to his {{p|Slurpuff}}'s strong sense of smell. Later, he had a three-on-three battle against Ash, but lost. During the battle, his Treecko [[Evolution|evolved]] into Grovyle, but still lost to [[Ash's Frogadier]]. After that, he said goodbye to Ash and {{ashfr}} and prepared to head for [[Coumarine City]] to challenge [[Ramos]]. | In ''[[XY074|Fairy-Type Trickery!]]'', Sawyer and his Treecko watched and analyzed Ash's Gym battle against Valerie together.

In ''[[XY127|Analysis Versus Passion!]]'', he began his [[Full Battle]] against Ash in the semifinals. He started out with {{p|Slaking}} in order to take on Ash's Hawlucha and its battling style. Slaking took several super-effective hits from Hawlucha, but did nothing in response. Instead, it used {{m|Slack Off}} to heal off most of the damage it took, and then defeated Hawlucha by using {{m|Counter}} in response to Hawlucha's {{m|Flying Press}}. Slaking then battled against [[Ash's Talonflame]], where it used Slack Off once again to heal itself. However, all of the damage it had taken caught up to it, allowing Talonflame to defeat it with consecutive {{m|Steel Wing}}, {{m|Flame Charge}}, and {{m|Brave Bird}} attacks. Sawyer then sent out {{p|Clawitzer}}, utilizing {{m|Aqua Jet}} to keep Talonflame pressured, with Sawyer saying the speed attack was inspired by Ash's usage of them. Clawitzer then used {{m|Ice Beam}} to partially freeze Talonflame's wing, and then defeated it when its Aqua Jet overpowered Talonflame's Flame Charge. | In ''[[XY127|Analysis Versus Passion!]]'', he began his [[Full Battle]] against Ash in the semifinals.

Ash then sent out Pikachu as his third Pokémon, with Clawitzer dodging Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}. Pikachu then dodged Clawitzer's Ice Beam, which then led to {{m|Electro Ball}}, while Clawitzer countered with {{m|Dragon Pulse}}, causing an explosion that damaged both Pokémon. Clawitzer then attempted to chase down Pikachu with Aqua Jet, but failed. When Pikachu tried to use {{m|Iron Tail}}, Clawitzer managed to grab it, attempting to finish the battle with {{m|Water Pulse}}. This gave Pikachu an opening to hit Clawitzer with Electro Ball at close range, and then finished it off with Thunderbolt. Sawyer then chose {{p|Aegislash}} as his third Pokémon, using {{m|Sacred Sword}} to chop down the trees on the battlefield. | Ash then sent out Pikachu as his third Pokémon, with Clawitzer dodging Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}} and {{m|Quick Attack}}.

In the [[XY128|following episode]], utilizing the destroyed battlefield to hamper Pikachu's movements, Aegislash was able to lower Pikachu's attack when it used King's Shield to counter Iron Tail, then going on the offensive and scoring consecutive hits with Sacred Sword. However, Pikachu managed to use one of the logs chopped up by Sacred Sword to stop King's Shield from completing, before knocking it out with Thunderbolt.

With Sawyer now down three Pokémon, the battlefield changed, while Sawyer sent out his newly evolved {{p|Salamence}} to battle [[Ash's Noivern]]. After taking a hit from {{m|Boomburst}}, Salamence's {{m|Dragon Rush}} overpowered Noivern's {{m|Dragon Claw}}. It then used {{m|Incinerate}} to get Noivern close, where it then hit it with {{m|Dragon Tail}}. Noivern then used Boomburst again to counter Incinerate, using the smoke to try and hit Salamence with {{m|Acrobatics}}. Knowing Noivern's ability to see through dust and smoke, Sawyer quickly ordered Salamence to use {{m|Protect}}, and then Dragon Rush to counter Acrobatics, resulting in a tie between the two. | ||
Sawyer then chose Slurpuff as his fifth Pokémon, while Ash chose Goodra, whom Sawyer had never battled before, and as such, didn't have any data on its strengths and strategies. Slurpuff's {{m|Flamethrower}} and Goodra's Ice Beam collided evenly, as Slurpuff hit it with {{m|Dazzling Gleam}}. Slurpuff then used {{m|Fairy Wind}}, but Goodra countered with {{m|Bide}}, Slurpuff limiting the damage with {{m|Cotton Guard}}. Slurpuff then unleashed a constant Flamethrower stream, while Goodra used Bide once more. Sawyer was shocked to see that Goodra had held on after such a powerful attack, and caused the battle to end with another double knockout after Bide and Fairy Wind collided. Down to his last Pokémon, Sawyer sent out Sceptile, while Ash sent Pikachu back out. Sceptile stopped Pikachu's Quick Attack with {{m|Leaf Storm}}, but then took a hit from Thunderbolt. After a stalemate between Iron Tail and {{m|Leaf Blade}}, Sceptile defeated Pikachu with {{m|Frenzy Plant}}. | Sawyer then chose Slurpuff as his fifth Pokémon, while Ash chose Goodra, whom Sawyer had never battled before, and as such, didn't have any data on its strengths and strategies.

Ash sent out Greninja as his final Pokémon, sparking a final showdown between the two Pokémon, whose rivalry had only escalated with time. After a brief struggle, Greninja transformed into Ash-Greninja, while Sawyer Mega Evolved Sceptile. Despite Mega Sceptile taking a huge hit from {{m|Aerial Ace}}, Sawyer seemed to match Ash move for move, hitting Ash-Greninja twice with Leaf Storm. Ash-Greninja managed to avoid what would have been a decisive Frenzy Plant, and then using Double Team, before absorbing all of the clones into {{m|Water Shuriken}}, causing the move to grow in size, allowing it to easily push past Leaf Storm, and give Ash the win. Despite the loss, Sawyer felt no disappointment or ill-will towards Ash, expressing his desire to keep on getting stronger and gaining more experience, so that he could continue to grow as a Trainer and eventually surpass Ash, shaking Ash's hand in a friendly respect. | Ash sent out Greninja as his final Pokémon, sparking a final showdown between the two Pokémon, whose rivalry had only escalated with time.

In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', Sawyer and Sceptile ate some Lumiose Galettes with Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, all of their Pokémon, along with [[Meyer]] and [[Clembot]]. Later on, he and Sceptile viewed some of the battles that had occurred throughout the Kalos League in order to expose themselves to new forms of battle strategies following their loss to Ash. During this, Sawyer expressed that despite gaining a lot of experience and truly enjoying a battle for the first time, and being able to put on a good face in order to wish Ash good luck in the finals, he couldn't ignore the immense frustration that was building up within him as a result of the loss. With tears running down his face, he admitted to Sceptile that he wanted to battle more than he did at the Kalos League. Shaking off his tears, he proclaimed his resolve to gain even more experience, and that by sitting and moping around, he would never be able to surpass Ash one day. The next day, he sat with Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, Tierno, {{an|Trevor}}, and {{an|Shauna}}, as the finals between Ash and [[Alain]] began. | In ''[[XY129|Kalos League Passion with a Certain Flare!]]'', Sawyer and Sceptile ate some Lumiose Galettes with Ash, Serena, Clemont, Bonnie, all of their Pokémon, along with [[Meyer]] and [[Clembot]].

Sawyer is very studious and careful, seeing as how he writes down notes in his notebook after every battle he participates in. He does his best to apply his gained knowledge in battle, but can sometimes lose his calm in critical situations, causing him to make the wrong move and lose. However, Sawyer is shown to be very open to new experiences and doesn't seem to mind losing as long as it gives him a chance to improve himself. This attitude has allowed Sawyer to steadily progress as a Trainer. Furthermore, as he has progressed, he began incorporating Ash's unorthodox strategies, such as using Slaking to counter Ash's Hawlucha' battling style, and using Aegislash to chop down the trees on the battlefield to eliminate Pikachu's hiding spots. | Sawyer is very studious and careful, seeing as how he writes down notes in his notebook after every battle he participates in.

Sawyer appears to look up to Ash as a friend and rival. After meeting Ash and being given helpful advice, Sawyer became more assertive and confident in battle, and his Pokémon reflect this newfound attitude. After witnessing Ash's loss to Wulfric in ''[[XY120|All Hail the Ice Battlefield!]]'', Sawyer appeared to be disappointed, saying that the Trainer he had been admiring for so long wouldn't have lost, but ultimately promised to believe in his friend, knowing they would see each other in the Pokémon League. This belief ultimately turned true when he saw Ash at the League's Opening Ceremony in ''[[XY125|A League of His Own!]]'', and was completely confirmed for him during his battle against Ash in the semi-finals. | Sawyer appears to look up to Ash as a friend and rival.
