After introducing itself to Ash, it followed him to the [[Pokémon School]], where it met {{ashcl}} and [[Samson Oak]]. Later, it accompanied Ash and his friends during their fieldwork in a forest. | ||
In ''[[SM017|Crystal-Clear Sleuthing!]]'', Rotom was shown to be a big fan of the detective show Alolan Detective Laki and impersonated [[Laki]] throughout the episode. Upon finding out that Ash had lost his [[Electrium Z]], Rotom decided solve the case. After learning about a camera crew that had been filming at the Pokémon School, it went to the Alola TV station, where it copied the video from one of the cameras and updated itself with a video camera function. Using its new function, Rotom concluded that {{an|Kiawe}} was the culprit, but was proven wrong by {{an|Lillie}}. It was then revealed that the Z-Crystal had been stuck inside Rotom's wig the whole time. At the end of the episode, Rotom offered to help Ash and Kiawe with their {{pkmn|training}} by recording it. | In ''[[SM017|Crystal-Clear Sleuthing!]]'', Rotom was shown to be a big fan of the detective show Alolan Detective Laki and impersonated [[Laki]] throughout the episode.

While inhabiting the Pokédex, Rotom does not appear to have combat functions, and is unable to use any moves. As shown in ''[[SM017|Crystal-Clear Sleuthing!]]'', it can use its "arms" to extract data from other electronic devices and update itself with the device's function. Additionally, if it is upside down or sideways, it can recalibrate its screen to show the data the right side up. Rotom also uses the numbers on its screen to express the statistics, usually showing the percentage of something, for example, to show the likelihood of a Pokémon appearing nearby. As shown in ''[[SM056|Let Sleeping Pokémon Lie!]]'', Rotom has a clear waterproof casing, allowing it to be used underwater. | While inhabiting the Pokédex, Rotom does not appear to have combat functions, and is unable to use any moves.

It likes to cosplay as the titular character [[Laki]], wearing a wig modeled after his hairstyle of [[Laki]], which {{an|Professor Kukui}} bought for it, to achieve this. It also looks up to Laki and even used his thought process in order to figure out how to deal with the fact that it had become {{status|freeze|frozen}}. However, Rotom tends to jump to conclusions with its deductions, such as in ''Crystal-Clear Sleuthing!'', when it believed that {{an|Kiawe}} stole {{Ash}}'s [[Electrium Z]]. This was also shown in ''[[SM029|Lulled to La-La Land!]]'', when it accused {{an|Lillie}} of putting Ash and the rest of {{ashfr|the group}} to sleep and draining their energy, causing {{an|Mallow}} to jump to her defense. In addition, it is known to state the obvious through its calculations. | ||
In ''[[SM057|The Dex Can't Help It!]]'', it is revealed that if Rotom takes too much of a shock, it will be forced out of the electronic it is inhabiting. As mentioned in the episode's [[Poké Problem]], Rotom has spent so much time in its Pokédex form that it feels uncomfortable outside of it. | In ''[[SM057|The Dex Can't Help It!]]'', it is revealed that if Rotom takes too much of a shock, it will be forced out of the electronic it is inhabiting.
