She debuted in Cloudy Fate, Bright Future!, where she told the group about Ash's Frogadier's past. She also predicted Ash and his friends, along with Team Rocket, will be the victims of a crisis, and then blocked Team Rocket's attempt to steal the giant sundial. It was also revealed that she had foreseen the battle between Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre from Mega Evolution Special III, allowing the people of Kalos to take precautions for the weather anomalies caused by the clash of the Legendary Pokémon.

In All Eyes on the Future!, Olympia had a Gym battle against Ash. Eventually, Ash was able to defeat her, thus earning his seventh Kalos League Badge, the Psychic Badge. She also told Professor Sycamore about a vision she had seen from the upcoming crisis.

Olympia in Pokémon Adventures

Olympia debuted in Quilladin Stands. She, alongside Grant and Valerie, went to visit Korrina, who was in a Laverre City hospital recuperating from injuries she sustained in a battle with Team Flare. They soon left to have a meeting with the other Kalos Gym Leaders to decide on how to deal with Team Flare. In Pyroar Breathes, Y, Trevor, Tierno, and Shauna joined the Gym Leaders and traveled to Geosenge Town to confront Team Flare. Shortly after they arrived, the group witnessed the ultimate weapon emerging from underground like a flower bud. To prevent the weapon from blooming, the Gym Leaders and Y used their bodies to keep the petals in place by force, but were met with interference by Bryony.

The ultimate weapon eventually fired anyway, but the combined efforts of the Gym Leaders and their allies successfully weakened the weapon enough to make it unable to take any innocent lives. Using her newly-obtained Xerneas, Xerxer, Y tried to destroy the ultimate weapon, but was interrupted by Malva and her Yveltal. Due to Xerneas and Yveltal being evenly matched, Xerosic announced that Lysandre ordered a ceasefire. Xerxer confirmed this and retreated, taking Y and the others with it.

In Pinsir Glares, Ramos revealed that Team Flare blamed the destruction caused by the ultimate weapon on the Gym Leaders and the Vaniville children. X and his friends were advised to keep out of the public's eye while the Gym Leaders helped rebuild the damaged areas. In Xerneas Gives, Olympia, Grant, Ramos, Valerie, and Wulfric helped stop Team Flare's attempt to reactivate the ultimate weapon by defeating a group of Grunts that were stationed around Cyllage City. After Team Flare was fully defeated, Olympia and her allies met with X and his friends at Lumiose City to congratulate them on their victory.
