{{Ash}} first performed a Z-Move in ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge!]]'', with his {{AP|Pikachu}} using {{m|Gigavolt Havoc}} thanks to the Z-Ring and [[Electrium Z]] Ash had received from {{DL|Guardian deities (anime)|Tapu Koko}}.

Z-Moves are shown to have some further limitations in the anime. As shown in [[JN076|''All Out, All of the Time!'']], even when in possession of both a [[Z-Power Ring]] and [[Z-Crystal]], a Z-Move will fail if the user and its trainer's hearts are not in total sync. Additionally, Z-Moves seem to require the presence of the {{an|Guardian deities}} in some form. In [[100|''Battling the Beast Within!'']] and [[101|''Parallel Friendships!'']], Z-Moves are shown not to work in the [[Ultra Ruin]] until the reappearance of [[Shiny Tapu Koko (anime)|Tapu Koko]]. Despite this limitation, it is shown in [[SM043|''When Regions Collide!'']], as well as throughout ''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]'', that Z-Moves are in fact able to be used outside of Alola. | Z-Moves are shown to have some further limitations in the anime.

In the Japanese, {{pmin|South Korea|Korean}}, {{pmin|Greater China|Mandarin Chinese}}, and {{pmin|Thailand|Thai}} versions, when a Z-Move is used, the name of the specific move is shown, like in the games; however, the names are removed in most other [[dub]]s. | In the Japanese, {{pmin|South Korea|Korean}}, {{pmin|Greater China|Mandarin Chinese}}, and {{pmin|Thailand|Thai}} versions, when a Z-Move is used, the name of the specific move is shown, like in the games; however, the names are removed in most other [[dub]]s. | ||
