Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.

In Pokémon Black and White, Zinzolin first appears in the Cold Storage with other Team Plasma Grunts, who were planning something. During that time, he had complained about the cold and when the player and Cheren appeared, he ordered the grunts to drive them away. When they failed, Clay and a couple workers arrived and arrested him and the grunts. Later, in Driftveil City, Ghetsis came and forced Clay to release them. Later at N's Castle, he and the other six sages appeared to block the player's way toward N. However, he and the other sages were surprised at the appearance of Clay and the other Gym Leaders and decided to try to defeat the Gym Leaders instead. Afterwards, Zinzolin can be found at the Cold Storage, as part of Looker's search for the Seven Sages. He remarks on how odd the player is and tells the player about his thoughts and gives the player TM01 (Hone Claws). Soon, he willingly turns himself in when Looker came to arrest him.

Quotes

At the Cold Storage

"All of you--huddle around me! I can't take this cold..."

"Pokémon are our king's friends. While we're taking care of them, we can't let any harm come to them here. Everyone, drive these intruders away!"

At Driftveil City

"Ghetsis... Thank you very much..."

At N's Castle

"There are not two suns in the sky, nor two sovereigns over the people."

"It is the way of the universe to take from excess and fill emptiness. Taking Pokémon from people is restoring balance to nature!"

At the Cold Storage

"So, you returned? You're an odd Trainer. All right. I've got time enough to satisfy your curiosity."

"...Breathing. Having a heart that beats. That is simple existence and nothing more for a living being. That may be the definition of living, but I don't think that defines life."

"The experiences of joy and suffering are a vital part of being alive. Ghetsis gave me the sensation of being truly alive... What did he mean to accomplish? That isn't what's important."

"Right now, I'm shivering. I'm suffering, but I'm alive."

"Pokémon and people live by being together and relying on one another. That might be how you feel. If that's so, is it necessary to separate people and Pokémon? By talking to you, I've discovered that there's much I need to think about... I wish I had more to give you in thanks... Here, take this."

"My lord N said that he wanted to make Pokémon perfect... But, even if the relationship between Pokémon and people stayed as it now is, Pokémon can aspire to perfection..."

"It's too cold and I'm already tired of shivering in here. If you'll give me some time to think, I'll tell you what I know. So...take me with you."
