In the anime

Purugly's first appearance was alongside Mars in Losing Its Lustrous! as she was destroying the Celestic Ruins to create a distraction so that Saturn could steal the Lustrous Orb. Purugly made a more significant appearance in the next episode, in which it battled Ash, Dawn and Cynthia for the orb and proved itself to be very powerful.

Purugly was once again by Mars' side during her operation on Iron Island to scan Mt. Coronet for the location of the Spear Pillar in Steeling Peace of Mind! and Saving the World From Ruins! and proved itself just as powerful in battle by defeating Meowth.

It was used in The Needs of the Three! to help capture Mesprit and Uxie. Later it was used The Battle Finale of Legend! to ward off Ash and his friends before being defeated by Pikachu.
