In the anime
Team Aqua Grunts have made subsequent appearances in the anime, normally using their Pokémon to infiltrate a target or to help Shelly out. One grunt is voiced by Darren Dunstan in English.
The first Aqua Grunt is introduced in Stairway to Devon where he infiltrated the Devon Corporation by disguising himself as a scientist and stole two capsules of "Creation Fluid". His plans were stopped by Team Rocket's Jessie and James, who intended to steal the same thing, all parties involved not realizing that "Creation Fluid" was nothing more than water. The same grunt appears again in the next episode where he uses his Crawdaunt to capture Mr. Briney's Peeko. Later Team Rocket appear and try to take Peeko from him but is sent blasting off by Crawdaunt. He tries to escape with Peeko, but in the end is stopped and he has to escape.
They appear again in Fight for the Meteorite! where they surrounded Professor Cozmo for a meteorite. They battle Team Magma and lose but Team Magma's plans are ruined by Ash and his friends. In A Three Team Scheme! three grunts appeared with Shelly to collect information on Team Magma. In Unfair-Weather Friends they infiltrated the Weather Institute, but their plans fail and they escape. Their last appearances in Gaining Groudon! and The Scuffle of Legends! is where they have awakened Groudon which causes mass destruction, but in the end Team Aqua are defeated.
Pokémon
This listing is of Team Aqua Grunts' Pokémon in the Pokémon anime:
Team Aqua grunts have many Crawdaunt they use in their evil plans. In Stairway to Devon a grunt used one to battle Ash and his Pikachu. Pikachu attacks with Quick Attack, but Crawdaunt retaliates with Crabhammer, before using Bubble Beam to escape. It appears again in the next episode where it is used to capture Mr. Briney's Peeko. Later it uses its Bubble Beam to send Team Rocket blasting off. Ash and Pikachu try and go on his boat to try to stop him, but Crawdaunt uses Water Pulse and sends the boat flying, in the end they have to escape without Peeko.
Many appear in Fight for the Meteorite! where they take over Mt. Chimney and battle Team Magma's Mightyena and Golbat alongside Walrein and are defeated. In Unfair-Weather Friends one was used to infiltrate the Weather Institute along with Ash and his friends and two to battle Brodie. Crawdaunt's last appearance was in Gaining Groudon where they are guarding the submarine, but are defeated by James's Cacnea's Pin Missile. Crawdaunt's known moves are Crabhammer, Bubble Beam and Water Pulse. | ||

Trivia
- In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, a former Aqua Grunt can be found in Icirrus City during winter, appearing as a female Pokémon Ranger. She is in a relationship with a former male Magma Grunt and neither seems to know the other's previous affiliation.
- In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, you witness the same couple hiding in the Battle Resort. Afraid their respective teams will disapprove. Though they are well aware of each-other's statuses in this version of events.
