Buō first appeared as a Tepig as one of the Pokémon owned by Professor Juniper along with the other [[Unova]] Starters, {{p|Snivy}} and {{p|Oshawott}}. While he sloppily ate some berries he roasted with his flames, Buō got into a fight with Snivy after getting juice on its tail. The two fought each other until they were broken up by Oshawott who had gotten angry and easily knocked them away. Later, they are delivered to an impatient {{adv|Black}} so they can be the Pokémon of the new upcoming Trainers. After being sent out of his Poké Ball, Buō and Snivy get into a fight once more and is again stopped by an enraged Oshawott. Buō runs off and Black follows him, leaving Snivy to suffer the wrath of Oshawott. Eventually Black finds Buō stuck on a tree and rescues him from a wild {{p|Sewaddle}} and takes him as his own Pokémon. Later, Black goes to a library to look up the evolved form of Tepig so he can decide an appropriate nickname for Buō. Buō assumes that Black meant that he wasn't happy with his present form and runs away. Black follows him and after finding out the reason why Buō ran away, decides to give him the nickname "Tep" instead of a name based on his final form.

After some adventuring, Buō is introduced to the Tepig of {{adv|White}}, [[Gigi]] and becomes friends with her. White, needing a male Tepig to go with her female Tepig in her media shootings, decides to employ Black and Buō after the former runs up a huge bill that he now needs to pay off. Buō and Gigi are then paired up in several shootings, such as movies or commercials.

Buō is later used against [[N]] in [[Accumula Town]] where he is almost defeated by the young man's powerful Pokémon. With words of encouragement from Black, Buō manages to get back up and defeats his {{p|Tympole}}, allowing N to decide that the battle is over and leave.

Buō, alongside {{adv|Cheren}}'s Snivy and {{adv|Bianca}}'s Oshawott, is used in the [[Striaton Gym]] against the Gym Leaders, [[Cilan]], [[Chili]], and [[Cress]]. Eventually, they manage to defeat [[Chili's Pansear]], allowing them to win with three to one after the time limit runs out.

After arriving in [[Castelia City]], Buō and Black encounter a lost boy crying in one of its buildings. When Black leaves to find help to find out why the boy is crying, Buō is left to watch over him. The boy quickly reveals himself to be a {{p|Zorua}} in disguise and causes havoc for Buō all throughout the building. Eventually, Buō manages to attack the Pokémon, but Zorua escapes and one of his attacks hits Black instead.

<!--Later, Tep begins his evolution process into his next stage. This causes White to freak out at the thought of losing her two Tepig duo between Tep and Gigi; she grabs Tep and shakes him violently to get him to stop evolving. In his Gym Battle against [[Burgh]], Black considers using Tep but decides against it when he remembers White's refusal against it.-->

Buō shares a love of [[Pokémon battle]]s with {{adv|Black}}, and also a love for food as seen in ''[[ABW01|Fussing and Fighting]]''. Buō has a big heart, and wants to be appreciated for who he is now as opposed to what he can become, as seen in ''[[ABW03|A Nickname for Tepig]]'' where he was determined to show Black that he was great the way he was, thus his nickname reflecting his current stage as opposed to evolved stage like the rest of Black's party. Buō is a bit of a romantic, almost instantly sparking a relationship with [[Gigi]]. He's also very clever, as he used {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}'s leaves to heal himself, {{TP|Bianca|Oshawott}}, and {{TP|Cheren|Snivy}}, winning the battle at the [[Striaton Gym]].

==Trivia==

* Buō is currently the only of Black's Pokémon to be given a name based on its base form rather than its final form. However, his nickname was changed once he evolved into a {{p|Pignite}} and later into a {{p|Emboar}}.

* Unless [[Natee]]'s name change currently only present in [[Chuang Yi]]'s translation isn't counted, then Buō's evolution marks the first and currently only time where a Pokémon belonging to a [[Pokédex holder]] has its name changed.
