Sophocles made his first appearance in ''[[SM001|Alola to New Adventure]]'', where he, {{an|Mallow}} and {{an|Lana}} accidentally trampled {{Ash}} on his first visit to [[Samson Oak]]'s [[Pokémon School]]. He later watched along with the rest of the class as Ash fought a group of [[Team Skull]] {{tc|Team Skull Grunt|Grunts}} alongside {{an|Kiawe}}. Shortly after the battle, Ash claimed to see the [[guardian deity]] {{p|Tapu Koko}} in the sky, but neither Sophocles nor the rest of the class could see the guardian. | |||
In ''[[SM002|The Guardian's Challenge]]'', Sophocles was surprised to see Ash with a [[Z-Ring]], which Ash claimed to be a gift from Tapu Koko. The next day, Sophocles participated in Ash's surprise welcome party to the school by challenging him to a balloon-popping contest. Sophocles won the challenge with ease by bursting the balloons on {{TP|Sophocles|Togedemaru}}'s spikes, and then using its {{a|Lightning Rod}} [[Ability]] to absorb {{AP|Pikachu}}'s electricity to charge its attacks. During a lunch break, he and the others witnessed Tapu Koko challenge Ash and Pikachu to a battle to test their ability using [[Z-Move]]s. After Ash decided to participate in the island challenges to replace his shattered [[Electrium Z]], Sophocles gladly offered to teach him and Pikachu new techniques. | |||
