In the final round, it battled [[Ash's Staravia]], who managed to beat it to the ring. However, Honchkrow attacked with Sky Attack and overpowered Staravia's {{m|Brave Bird}}, but Staravia managed to hold onto the ring and recovered. Honchkrow tried again to get the ring with a Dark Pulse, but Staravia once again kept hold of it. Riding the wind, Honchkrow struck with Aerial Ace and took possession of the ring, but lost it again when Staravia used Quick Attack to steal it straight out of Honchkrow's beak. Honchkrow struck with a Sky Attack and then, anticipating that Ash would counter with Quick Attack, Paul ordered Honchkrow to dodge and flatten Staravia with a Night Slash.

As Honchkrow prepared a Sky Attack to finish Staravia, he evolved into {{p|Staraptor}} and reclaimed the ring. Honchkrow managed to knock the ring out of Staraptor's beak, and stalled Staraptor by using Night Slash. However, Honchkrow took a beating from Staraptor's newly learned {{m|Close Combat}} and the two clashed with Sky Attack and Brave Bird once more. Staraptor managed to recover quicker this time and chased Honchkrow to the ring. Just as Honchkrow was about to close its beak on the ring, Staraptor swatted the ring onto the goal with his wing, meaning that Honchkrow came second. On the ground, Paul lay the blame for the loss on Honchkrow, saying that its response time was too slow.

It was used to battle Ash as Paul's fourth Pokémon in ''[[DP131|Pedal to the Mettle!]]'', where it fought {{TP|Ash|Grotle}} again. Everyone knew that Ash putting Grotle up against Honchkrow to avenge its loss was a mistake, but Ash persisted. Shielded by {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}}'s {{m|Light Screen}}, it managed to block the hit from {{m|Energy Ball}}. Honchkrow used Haze to blind Grotle and then hit with another Night Slash. When Grotle used {{m|Synthesis}}, Honchkrow used the delay to charge its Sky Attack, which crashed against {{m|Rock Climb}}. Honchkrow proved far more powerful and knocked Grotle out again.
