In ''[[SM123|A Fiery Training Camp Trick!]]'', Sophocles went on a training camp with Ash and Kiawe in order to learn how to use his Z-Ring, but repeatedly failed to keep up with their training methods. The next day, Sophocles and Vikavolt were forced to battle a wild {{p|Crawdaunt}} alone. Though scared, Vikavolt's refusal to give up gave Sophocles the confidence he needed to fully utilize his Z-Ring, allowing them to use {{m|Savage Spin-Out}} and defeat Crawdaunt. Afterward, Kiawe revealed the battle was a set-up he devised to boost Sophocles' confidence and improve his battling skills.

In [[SM129]], Sophocles was among the 151 Trainers taking part in the [[Battle Royal]] preliminary round of the [[Manalo Conference]]. Using Togedemaru, Sophocles was among the 16 Trainers still standing at the end of the round. The match-ups for the next round revealed that he would be battling [[Mina]]. In [[SM131]], Sophocles faced Mina in the first round, using Vikavolt against her {{p|Ribombee}}. Eventually, Ribombee was defeated, allowing Sophocles to advance to the second round. Later, it was revealed his next opponent would be Kiawe. In [[SM133]], Sophocles faced Kiawe in the second round, and before their battle started, Sophocles revealed he started to enjoy battling and wished to defeat Kiawe one day despite knowing how strong he is.

Sophocles is an intelligent young boy with a knack for inventing helpful devices and machinery. He is also a skilled {{pkmn|Trainer}} of {{type|Electric}} Pokémon, often using them to power his inventions. While at times rude and prone to absorbing himself in his technological activities, he is friendly and greatly cares for his Pokémon and classmates. In ''[[SM006|A Shocking Grocery Run!]]'', it was revealed that Sophocles likes to collect information on all sort of things, such as the best ice cream in Alola. In the same episode, it is also revealed that he has a fear of dark places, but is never scared at night as long as he has his Togedemaru with him. Sophocles tends to get bashful when people complement him on his knowledge, responding with a shy "{{tt|Mā, ne...|'Yeah, well.'}}" in the original Japanese version of the anime – a pun on his Japanese name, "Māmane".
