Yamask appeared before {{TRT}} in a warehouse in ''[[BW023|Battling For The Love of Bug-Types!]]''. {{MTR}} suggested that they capture it to increase their strength. [[Jessie]] agreed and called out her {{TP|Jessie|Woobat}} to battle it, but James claimed it was hungry and he proceeded to feed it. Once it was full, it happily went into James's [[Poké Ball]], the trio welcoming their newest addition with enthusiasm.

In ''[[BW026|Scare at the Litwick Mansion!]]'', Yamask befriended a group of {{p|Litwick}} in a mansion that Team Rocket was temporarily using as a base. However, it was kidnapped by the Candle Pokémon in an apparent attempt to lure James, Jessie and Meowth into a trap. Yamask teamed up with Jessie's Woobat, {{AP|Oshawott}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and {{TP|Cilan|Dwebble}} to defeat the Litwick and their {{p|Lampent}} leader.

Yamask was used in ''[[BW075|A Restoration Confrontation! Part 1]]'' to capture a {{p|Tirtouga}} that [[Dr. Zager]] had just resurrected, however it escaped after blowing a hole in the helicopter with {{m|AncientPower}}. In [[BW076|next episode]] Yamask ambushed [[Ferris]] and the group with {{m|Night Shade}} and battled to capture the Prototurtle Pokémon alongside Woobat. After Tirtouga evolved into {{p|Carracosta}} and fled the scene, Yamask used its {{m|Haze}} to stop {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} from following {{TRT}}. Yamask later battled Pikachu and  {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}, revealing its {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} attack, as they tied to rescue the captured Carracosta before the time gate at [[Twist Mountain]].

Sometime before ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]'', Yamask helped Team Rocket kidnap {{an|Meloetta}}, who was living in hiding, by distracting Meloetta's protecter: [[Ridley]] with its Haze attack. In ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'', Yamask helped uncover Meloetta while Team Rocket were pursuing it. Later in ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'' it surrounded Ash and the others with Will-O-Wisp and then revealed Meloetta from its invisable state. Yamask continued to battle {{TP|Iris|Axew}} and Pansage while {{an|Giovanni}} pursued Ash who had then fled with Meloetta. Then in the [[BW097|next episode]] Yamask and Woobat used their combined attacks to launch Ash of the top of the ancient temple to prevent him from interfearing with Operation Tempest. When Team Rocket were finally defeated, Yamask allowed them to retreat by cosealing them all with Haze.

Yamask also helped to fight off [[Team Plasma]]'s controlled Pokémon in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]''.

Like many of James's Pokémon before it, Yamask is very friendly and is shown to have a great relationship with its Trainer. It is a very thankful Pokémon, as shown when it willingly entered James's Poké Ball after it was given a little food. Unlike most of James's other Pokémon, such as his {{TP|James|Victreebel}}, {{TP|James|Cacnea}} and {{TP|James|Carnivine}}, Yamask doesn't show any kind of special affection to him when coming out of its Poké Ball.

As seen in ''[[BW037|A Fishing Connoisseur in a Fishy Competition!]]'', it can use its mask to deflect attacks, much like how [[Ash's Oshawott]] uses his scalchop. It can also, like [[Jessie's Seviper]] before it, use {{m|Haze}} to shroud Team Rocket in a dark cloud of smoke to allow for a quick escape.
