It was then put up against [[Ash's Charizard]] in the final round of the battle. With its impressive speed and power, Pidgeot was able to gain the upper hand and injure Charizard making it unable to fly. But with Ash's support and inspiration, Charizard was able to fly again.

Unfortunately, things still looked bad as Pidgeot used Agility to keep dodging Charizard's attacks and attack from behind. Ash luckily had Charizard turn back and use {{m|Fire Spin}} trapping Pidgeot. It then finished it off with {{m|Seismic Toss}} making Ash the victor.

The Bird Keeper suggests escaping, but Falkner isn't interested, instead turning to attack Suicune, who shatters Skarmory's wing. In one last attempt, Falkner tries to capture Suicune, but Raikou and Entei return the previous favor by destroying the Poké Balls. Skarmory begins to plummet to earth. However, Suicune saves the three of them, before the Beast trio flee. With their escape, Falkner laments on how he wouldn't have defeated Raikou and Entei even without Suicune's interference, and formally arrests the Bird Keeper under suspicion of poaching.

Falkner, along with his fellow Gym Leaders from Kanto and Johto, travels to the [[Indigo Plateau]] to take part in a tournament being held there. In the fight match ups, he is paired up against the [[Fuchsia City]] Gym Leader, [[Janine]]. In the third match, Falkner begins his battle against Janine and starts off with his {{p|Noctowl}}. The {{type|Poison}} Gym Leader proves too powerful for him and he is nearly defeated by her {{p|Ariados}}. Falkner eventually wins by default after Janine leaves the battle after seeing what she thought was her missing father, [[Koga]], in the crowd.

Later, when the Masked Man attacks the Pokémon League, Falkner and the other Gym Leaders battle his army of mind controlled {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. They battle the Grunts on the [[Magnet Train]] and eventually manage to defeat them as they return to the stadium. After the defeat of the Masked Man, Falkner and the other Gym Leaders go back into their usual duties.

In the {{chap|HeartGold & SoulSilver}}, Falkner, along with his fellow Gym Leaders, [[Chuck]] and [[Bugsy]], are seen guarding the [[Ecruteak Gym]] due to a large amount of people coming there requesting the use of [[Morty]]'s clairvoyance. They are confronted by {{adv|Silver}} who had arrived to ask for Morty's assistance and try to stop him. When he refuses to let them stop him, Silver attacks them and quickly knocks out their Pokémon. Eventually, they stop battling after it is revealed that Silver was supposed to meet Morty anyway; Falkner then takes him to Morty inside of the Gym.
