In ''[[DP176|Coming Full-Festival Circle!]]'', Nando used Kricketune as well as his {{p|Lopunny}} to battle [[Zoey]]'s {{p|Mismagius}} and {{p|Leafeon}}.

Kricketune appears to be a Pokémon trusted by Nando and being used by him often. The fact that he wished to challenge [[Fantina]] with her and even used her against his final battle with Ash, while fully knowing Ash's confidence in his Pokémon, reflects his own confidence in his Kricketune. She appears to be a strong Pokémon, taking direct hits from opponents, but still standing on. | |||
