In ''[[PS037|Golly, Golem!]]'', Snor battled {{adv|Giovanni}}  as Red's first Pokémon at the [[Viridian Gym]]. Snor made the first attack, but Giovanni used his speed against him by having {{p|Nidoqueen}} {{m|Counter}} Snor, before flinging the heavy Pokémon through the wall and out of the Gym. As Giovanni switched to {{p|Golem}}, Red decided to have the ricocheting Pokémon bounce his way out of the Gym so Snor could attack, but Giovanni made use of Snor's {{m|Headbutt}} shattering Golem by pummeling Snor with {{m|Rock Throw}} and then fainting him with {{m|Explosion}}, revealing that he had planned this from the moment Red sent Snor out.

In ''[[PS040|A Charizard...and a Champion]]'', Snor battled [[Blue's Charizard]] in the [[Indigo Plateau]] [[Pokémon League]] finals, though {{adv|Blue}} immediately switched out for {{TP|Blue|Machamp}}. Through his four arms, Machamp easily blocked all of Snor's limbs and prevented him from attacking. The Superpower Pokémon then effortlessly lifted the Sleeping Pokémon with his four arms, spinning him about with {{m|Submission}} before {{m|slam}}ming him onto the floor, which cracked under Snor's weight. After Snor hit the ground, Red secretly had him use {{m|Harden}} in anticipation of Machamp's {{m|Karate Chop}}. However, Blue saw through Red's trick, and had his Machamp attack the ground instead, using a piece of shattered debris as a lever to catapult Snor into the air and out of the battlefield. Just as Snor was about to be disqualified for going out of bounds, he plummeted down from mid-air and crushed Machamp with a combination of {{m|Double-Edge}} and {{m|Toxic}}. Realizing Snor had taken heavy damage, Red [[recall]]ed him.

In ''[[PS068|Jigglypuff Jive]]'', Snor, alongside [[Saur]] and [[Gyara]], were called out to battle [[Lorelei]], [[Bruno]], and [[Agatha]]. With the power of the Badge Energy Amplifier, the [[Elite Four]]'s Pokémon do a combination attack of {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Ghost}} powers, knocking the three out.

In ''[[PS273|Red and Blue Make Purple Opponents]]'', Snor battled alongside Gyara in a [[Double Battle]] against Blue and his {{TP|Blue|Golduck}} and {{TP|Blue|Porygon2}} at [[Ultima]]'s "Path of Battle". Blue started the battle by having Golduck use {{m|Iron Tail}} and Porygon2 use {{m|Tri Attack}} on Red's Pokémon. Red then counterattacked with Gyara's {{m|Body Slam}} on Porygon2 and Snor's {{m|Strength}} on Golduck. As Blue was getting further ahead, Red had Gyara attack Golduck with {{m|Hyper Beam}}, and the Duck Pokémon escaped underground by using {{m|Dig}}. Red countered by having Snor use {{m|Earthquake}}, which dealt double damage on Golduck due to him being underground, fainting him. The attack also damaged Porygon2, but Gyara avoided any damage due to being part {{type|Flying}}. Blue then switched to {{TP|Blue|Scizor}} and Machamp, with Scizor dropping Machamp at Snor, allowing him to perform a {{m|Seismic Toss}} on the Sleeping Pokémon. Before Snor could react, Machamp attacked him with {{m|Low Kick}}, which dealt massive damage on the heavy Pokémon and took him out of the fight.

In ''[[PS279|Don't Doubt Deoxys]]'', Snor battled {{adv|Deoxys|Organism No. 2}} on [[Five Island]]. Snor tried to strike the DNA Pokémon with a powerful punch, but Organism No. 2 changed into its {{DL|List of Pokémon with form differences|Deoxys|Defense Forme}}, not budging an inch from Snor's attack. Seeing his opponent's incredible defensive capabilities, Red had Snor draw back. Snor was later nearly killed along with Red's other Pokémon while defending his {{pkmn|Trainer}} from Organism No. 2's {{m|Psycho Boost}}.

 

In ''[[PS299|Distant Relation Deoxys]]'' and ''[[PS301|Storming the Forretress]]'', Snor was seen joining Red's other Pokémon, Blue's Charizard, and [[Chuchu]] to take down the ten {{p|Forretress}} that [[Carr]] had placed inside the Team Rocket airship.

Snor appeared in a flashback in ''[[PS460|All About Arceus IX]]'', when [[Radio Director|Hirō]] explains that he based [[Proteam Omega]] off of Red's team after watching him [[PSs2|train]] on [[Mt. Silver]]. It was also revealed that Snor and Emerald's Snorlax had produced an {{pkmn|Egg}}, which {{adv|Gold}} had agreed to hatch.

* {{ga|Red}} from the games also uses a Snorlax in [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions|Gold, Silver]], [[Pokémon Crystal Version|Crystal]], [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|HeartGold, SoulSilver]], [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Black 2, White 2]], [[Pokémon Sun and Moon|Sun, Moon]], [[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun, Ultra Moon]], [[Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!|Let's Go, Pikachu!, Let's Go, Eevee!]] and [[Pokémon Stadium 2|Stadium 2]].

** {{OBP|Red|Origins}} also has a Snorlax in [[Pokémon Origins]].
