Poncho is a {{p|Diglett}} rancher, meaning he uses Diglett to round up different Pokémon. When {{Ash}} and {{ashfr|his friends}} met him, he was trying to round up multiple {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} who had been scaring people away from a small town. Poncho would use his Diglett to {{m|dig}} tunnels underneath the Pokémon that lead to another island, where the Voltorb and Electrode could live in peace without people.

Unfortunately for Poncho, the mayor felt that he was taking too long in removing the Electrode, so she hired [[Team Rocket]] to get rid of them instead. Team Rocket's solution was to force the Electrode to use {{m|Selfdestruct}} and {{m|Explosion}}, and then taking them all for themselves.

Angered, Poncho sent out his {{p|Dugtrio}}, which helped get rid of Team Rocket, and, along with all his Diglett, move the remaining Electrode to the island. With that, Poncho had successfully moved all the Electrode away from the town, and it was allowed to reopen once again. As a result, the mayor rehired (and promoted) him and gave the Diglett rancher the key to the city.

Poncho wanted to use his Diglett to dig tunnels underneath the town and get the Voltorb and Electrode to a nearby island so they can live in peace.

They later dug holes underneath the Electrode and helped construct a tunnel to the island with {{p|Dugtrio}} and successfully re-homed the Electrode and Voltorb.
