'''Gladion's Zoroark''' (Japanese: '''グラジオのゾロアーク''' ''Glazio's Zoroark'') is {{an|Gladion}}'s fourth known Pokémon. Prior to the start of the {{series|Sun & Moon}} it belonged to his father, [[Mohn]], before he disappeared.
==In the anime==

===History===
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon]]''====
=====as a Mohn's Pokémon=====
Prior to the start of the {{series|Sun & Moon}}, [[Mohn]] used Zoroark in his [[Island challenge|grand trial]] battle against [[Hala]]'s {{p|Hariyama}}. It was able to win, earning Mohn a [[Z-Ring]]. When Mohn disappeared into an [[Ultra Wormhole]] it ran away.
 
In ''[[SM127|Chasing Memories, Creating Dreams!]]'', {{an|Gladion}} went searching for Zoroark on [[Melemele Island]] for help in finding Mohn. Unbeknownst to him, Zoroark was discreetly following him, changing into different Pokémon with its {{a|Illusion}} [[Ability]] along the way to keep itself hidden. At night, when Gladion and {{p|Umbreon}} came across what appeared to be a {{p|Lurantis}}, Gladion order Umbreon to attack the Pokémon, causing Zoroark to revert to normal. Gladion urged it to come with him and help him find his father, which it accepted, joining his team.

=====With Gladion=====
In ''[[SM138|Final Rivals!]]'', Zoroark was the second Pokémon Gladion sent out in his battle against {{Ash}} in the [[Manalo Conference]] finals, facing [[Ash's Pikachu]]. Using its Illusion Ability to disguise itself as {{TP|Gladion|Lycanroc}}, Zoroark surprised Pikachu with a {{m|Night Daze}} attack and followed up by cutting through his {{m|Electroweb}} with {{m|Shadow Claw}}. Though successful, Pikachu managed to get behind Zoroark and hit it with a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, removing the effects of its Ability and revealing its true form. The battle [[SM139|continued]] into the next episode, where Zoroark pushed Pikachu back with another Shadow Claw. It then unleashed its [[Z-Move]], {{m|Never-Ending Nightmare}}, which was countered by Pikachu's {{m|Breakneck Blitz}}. The two Z-Moves collided, resulting in a double knockout.
 
In ''[[SM145|Dreams of the Sun and Moon!]]'', Zoroark was sent out to meet {{DL|Mohn|Magearna}} in the hopes of awakening the [[Mythical Pokémon]]. It immediately recognized the room and Magearna, and created an illusion, showing Gladion and Lillie a flashback of Mohn, Magearna, and an infant Lillie. It was happy when Magearna finally awakaned from its slumber.

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
Zoroark appeared in ''[[JN037|The New Old Gang of Mine!]]'', still searching for Mohn alongside Gladion.
===Personality and characteristics===
 
Zoroark is very close with Mohn, as it was very upset when it ran away following Mohn's disappearance. It is a strong Pokémon, able to keep up with [[Hala]]'s {{p|Hariyama}} despite the type-disadvantage. It was shown to be playful, as seen in ''[[SM127|Chasing Memories, Creating Dreams!]]'', when it followed Gladion along his journey while he searched for it.
