-Shortly prior to the events of the episode, Saizo gave [[Sanpei]] a mission to deliver a secret scroll to a mansion by sunset. As Sanpei went on his way, however, Saizo appeared in his way in a {{p|Shiftry}} mask, along with his {{p|Barbaracle}}, claiming to be battling him for possession of the scroll. Although [[Sanpei's Greninja]] put up a fight, Barbaracle poisoned it with a {{m|Poison Jab}}, while the two eventually ended up astray on the river, eventually being found by {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}.

-Saizo later appeared to battle Sanpei again, but this time Sanpei was assisted by Ash. Knowing he and Ash wouldn't be able to defeat Saizo, Sanpei used his ninja skill to escape.
+Saizo later appeared to battle Sanpei again, but this time Sanpei was assisted by Ash. Knowing he and Ash wouldn't be able to defeat Saizo, Sanpei used his ninja techniques to escape. Saizo, still disguised, ambushed Sanpei again, this time inside a cave where he managed to kidnap {{ashfr}} to stop them from intervening in Sanpei's trial. However things did not go according to plan, with Ash managing to stay by Sanpei's side and {{TRT}} interrupting the next confrontation. However, Saizo quickly fought Team Rocket off, then continued the battle. While Barbaracle managed to temporarily gain the advantage against {{AP|Froakie}} and Greninja, Froakie eventually evolved into a {{p|Frogadier}} and defeated Barbaracle. From there, Saizo then left. While invisible to Sanpei and Ash, he said that Sanpei may head to the mansion, and there he will learn the secrets about his companions.

+As the two reached the mansion, Saizo appeared yet again, and unmasked himself, much to the surprise of Sanpei. He revealed that the scroll was in fact empty, and that the mission was designed to test what Sanpei had learned in his journey. Saizo commended Sanpei's efforts, namely his resourcefulness and bond with Greninja, and awarded him a pass on the mission.

+Saizo reappeared in person in ''[[XY100|A Festival of Decisions!]]'', returning to save [[Ninja Village]] from the vengeful [[Kagetomo]] and the Ninja Corps. He managed to weaken [[Heidayu]]'s {{p|Bisharp}} with a powerful {{m|Razor Shell}} attack from his Barbaracle, aiding Ash and Sanpei. He later alerted Ippei and the others that Kagetomo was behind the attack, and directed everyone's attention to nearby [[Otori Mountain]] where chief {{kal|Hanzo}} had been taken. Saizo later joined the counter-offensive against Kagetomo. He helped [[Shinobu]], {{an|Clemont}} and {{an|Serena}} defeat the Ninja Corps in a battle. He also witnessed the battle between Ippei and Kagetomo, in which the former emerged triumphant. Afterwards, Saizo attended the village festival to watch Ippei announced as the new chief of Ninja Village.
