Boldore debuted as a Roggenrola in ''[[BW034|Gotta Catch A Roggenrola!]]'' when it literally crashed into {{an|Cilan}}'s food in distress. Ash battled it, but it managed to knock out both {{AP|Oshawott}} and {{AP|Tepig}}. It later met Ash again when they came to investigate a tunnel, where they found {{TRT}} harvesting wild Roggenrola for their cannon. It too was collected, and Ash managed to save it, but not before Team Rocket caused a cave in with a powerful Flash Cannon created by all of the Roggenrola they had collected. After they escaped the tunnel, they found Team Rocket in a warehouse where Ash and Roggenrola managed to free the other Roggenrola. Once they were reunited, they sent Team Rocket blasting off with a combined Flash Cannon. After being cured at the [[Pokémon Center]], Roggenrola challenged Ash to a rematch, where it was eventually defeated by Tepig and captured.

In the [[BW035|next episode]], Roggenrola was used to help locate where the missing {{p|Audino}} were going. Cilan stated that Roggenrola had sensitive hearing similar to Audino and could pick up sounds that were inaudible to humans. Thanks to it, they were able to find out where the Audino were being kept. It also made use of its Stone Edge by destroying Team Rocket's sound wave machine that controlled the Audino, thus setting them free.

In ''[[BW060|Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 2]]'', Roggenrola helped rescue the members of the [[Forces of Nature]] from Team Rocket. It repeatedly used Flash Cannon on [[Dr. Zager]]'s helicopter until it was joined by Pikachu, [[Iris's Axew]] and {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}, and [[Cilan's Pansage]] to cause the force field prisons trapping the trio to break.

In ''[[BW061|Battling the King of the Mines!]]'', Roggenrola was Ash's final Pokémon in his [[Driftveil Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against Clay and his {{TP|Clay|Excadrill}}, despite the type disadvantage, Ash chose Roggenrola as he wanted it to endure {{p|Excadrill}}'s powerful attacks and then counterattack. Roggenrola used Sandstorm creating a {{weather|Sandstorm}}, but this did no visible damage to Excadrill being a part {{type|Ground}} and part {{type|Steel}}. Excadrill then used Drill Run underground, hitting Roggenrola multiple times by going in and out of the ground. Excadrill then used its [[one-hit knockout move]] {{m|Horn Drill}} on Roggenrola, but Roggenrola endured it thanks to its {{a|Sturdy}}, but looked damaged. It then immediately evolved into a {{p|Boldore}}. Excadrill used Horn Drill again but was blocked by Sturdy once more, and then went for another Drill Run. Boldore caught this and used its red stones to communicate with Ash about its new move, Rock Blast. Using Rock Blast Boldore was able to deal damage to Excadrill and knock it back. It then communicated its other new move Rock Smash, which it immediately used. Excadrill used Rock Smash as well and whilst both were powerful, Boldore's Rock Smash overpowered Excadrill's, defeating the Subterrene Pokémon and winning Ash the {{badge|Quake}}.

Just when all seemed lost, Roggenrola immediately evolved into a {{p|Boldore}}. Excadrill used Horn Drill again but was blocked by Sturdy once more, and then went for another Drill Run.

In ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', Ash used Boldore in a [[Multi Battle|Tag Battle]] against {{an|Bianca}}'s newly evolved {{p|Escavalier}} and [[Professor Juniper]]'s newly evolved {{p|Accelgor}}, accompanied by Cilan and his {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}}. Boldore was able to hit both of its opponents with Rock Smash at the start of the battle and alongside Crustle, held back Escavalier's {{m|Fury Attack}}. While Escavalier was dodging Crustle's {{m|Rock Slide}}, Boldore was able to hit it hard with Rock Blast until Accelgor came to Escavalier's defense with {{m|Substitute}}. Taking advantage of a weakened Accelgor, Ash ordered Boldore to use Flash Cannon on it, but Escavalier was able to deflect the attack. Boldore was knocked back into Crustle by Escavalier's Fury Attack and, protecting its partner, was knocked out by Escavalier and Accelgor's combined {{m|Hyper Beam}} attacks.

In ''[[BW083|Rocking the Virbank Gym! Part 1]]'', Ash used Boldore as his first Pokémon during his [[Gym]] battle against [[Roxie]], sending it out to face her {{p|Koffing}}. At first Boldore attacked with Sandstorm, but Koffing endured it and countered with {{m|Clear Smog}}. Next Boldore used Rock Blast, but Koffing blocked it and attacked with {{m|Gyro Ball}}. The Ore Pokémon managed to endure it and overcome Koffing's following {{m|Sludge Bomb}} attack with Flash Cannon, but then Boldore was defeated by the Poison Gas Pokémon when it attacked again with Gyro Ball, easily penetrating Boldore's Sandstorm defense.

In ''[[BW107|Cameron's Secret Weapon!]]'', Ash used Boldore as his first Pokémon in his [[Vertress Conference]] battle against {{un|Cameron}} and his {{p|Hydreigon}}. The Brutal Pokémon proved itself a tough opponent for the Ore Pokémon, immediately scoring direct hits with {{m|Tri Attack}} and {{m|Dragon Pulse}}. Although Hydreigon was able to avoid Boldore's Rock Blast, it was unable to dodge a super effective Rock Smash. However, this wasn't enough, as Hydreigon then attacked with {{m|Dragon Rush}}, another Tri Attack, and finally Dragon Pulse, which easily overpowered Boldore's Flash Cannon, defeating the {{type|Rock}} Pokémon.
