He was battling a Trainer in the middle of town with his {{p|Bouffalant}} as Trip watched in awe. After the {{pkmn|battle}}, the {{pkmn|Champion}} approached the child and allowed him to pet and feed Bouffalant. He asked Trip what his goal was, and Trip replied that it was to be Champion. Impressed, Alder inspired Trip to train hard when he got older, and that he would be waiting to challenge Trip someday. Trip sealed the promise with a confident handshake. | ||
Alder physically debuted in ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]''. {{Ash}} and Trip met him on {{rt|5|Unova}}, and upon meeting them, he referred to them as '''Ashton''' (Japanese: '''サンタロ''' ''Santaro'') and '''Tristan''' (Japanese: '''シュータロ''' ''Shootaro''), respectively. He wished to battle both of them in a two-on-one battle, but Trip refused to battle alongside Ash, so Alder settled for battling them one at a time. Trip allowed Ash to go first, thinking that being quickly defeated by the Champion would do him good. | Alder physically debuted in ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]''. {{Ash}} and Trip met him on {{rt|5|Unova}}, and upon meeting them, he referred to them as '''Ashton''' (Japanese: '''サンタロ''' ''Santaro'') and '''Tristan''' (Japanese: '''シュータロ''' ''Shootaro''), respectively.

In ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'', Alder sent Bouffalant out to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]]. However, it was given no commands as Pikachu hit it with all of his attacks. Frustrated, it then turned to Alder, who was shown to have fallen asleep. Due to this, when Alder told Bouffalant to attack, it attacked him instead of Pikachu. Alder then offered it an apple as an apology. Later Alder sent Bouffalant out to face the rampaging Gigalith, but then decided to handle the situation himself. | In ''[[BW052|Ash Versus the Champion!]]'', Alder sent Bouffalant out to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]].
