James originally {{pkmn2|caught}} Carnivine in the [[Great Marsh]] as a boy, as mentioned in a flashback in ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''. It debuted in ''[[DP002|Two Degrees of Separation!]]''. During this episode, {{TRT}} went to [[James's parents]]' vacation home in [[Sinnoh]]. While there, James found Carnivine's {{i|Poké Ball}} among a collection of bottlecaps, but he left quickly after being informed that [[Jessebelle]] was on her way. Before leaving, however, he decided to bring Carnivine with him. For the duration of time James had it with him, Carnivine took {{TP|James|Cacnea}}'s place as his main battling Pokémon. | James originally {{pkmn2|caught}} Carnivine in the [[Great Marsh]] as a boy, as mentioned in a flashback in ''[[DP082|Cream of the Croagunk Crop!]]''.

Carnivine had its first battle against {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in ''[[DP004|Dawn Of A New Era!]]'', fighting [[Dawn's Piplup]]. Piplup fired off a {{m|Bubble Beam}}, but Carnivine literally ate it and charged forward with {{m|Bite}}. However, [[Nando's Budew]] intercepted, pushing Carnivine back and firing a Bullet Seed, sending Team Rocket flying. | Carnivine had its first battle against {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} in ''[[DP004|Dawn Of A New Era!]]'', fighting [[Dawn's Piplup]].

In Jessilina's Sinnoh Contest [[DP011|debut]], Carnivine was used in both the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]] and the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]]. In the first round, Carnivine used {{m|Bullet Seed}} on a lollipop that Jessie threw, and amazed the crowd by biting Jessie's head. The performance impressed the [[Contest Judge]]s and, as a result, Jessilina was one of the eight {{pkmn|Coordinator}}s moving on to the second round. There, it was seen defeating a {{p|Rhydon}}, showing that it was a skilled battler, and thanks to it, Jessie reached the final stage. However, it lost against [[Zoey's Glameow]]. | In Jessilina's Sinnoh Contest [[DP011|debut]], Carnivine was used in both the [[Appeal|Performance Stage]] and the [[Contest Battle|Battle Stage]].

Carnivine continues the series' running gag of James's {{type|Grass}} Pokémon showing affection for him by hurting him whenever they are sent out from their {{i|Poké Ball}}s. This affection is probably due to the fact that [[James]] and Carnivine shared a close bond when James was a child. | Carnivine continues the series' running gag of James's {{type|Grass}} Pokémon showing affection for him by hurting him whenever they are sent out from their {{i|Poké Ball}}s.

Carnivine shares a great relationship with James, like his other Pokémon. In ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]'', Carnivine saw the fear in James's eyes at the face of death and heroically learned {{m|Vine Whip}} to rescue him and the others. | Carnivine shares a great relationship with James, like his other Pokémon.
