In ''[[XY076|A Not-So-Flying Start!]]'', Noibat was in his {{pkmn|Egg}} when he was first found by {{AP|Hawlucha}}, who was doing training exercises. The Wrestling Pokémon brought the Egg back to {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}}, where he was about to hatch. In response, Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{AP|Fletchinder}}, Hawlucha, {{an|Bonnie}}, {{TP|Clemont|Dedenne}}, {{TP|Serena|Pancham}} and {{TP|Clemont|Chespin}} covered the Egg to keep it warm whilst it hatched, with Fletchinder using its {{a|Flame Body}} Ability to help.

When he hatched, Noibat first saw Ash and was introduced to him and his Pokémon. Noibat was very stressed out, so he let out a powerful {{m|Supersonic}} attack, hurting everyone's ears. He was eventually calmed down by Ash. Afterwards, the group found apples for him with Noibat using his ultrasonic waves to sense the apples' taste. Noibat then attempted to fly, but failed causing him to launch another Supersonic until he was calmed down by Ash again. The group decided to help teaching Noibat how to fly with Hawlucha and Fletchinder aiding him. Despite Noibat improving he was still unable to fly. Whilst training with Hawlucha and Fletchinder, {{TRT}} appeared and fired a net at Noibat whom they wanted to evolve into a {{p|Noivern}}. In the process of the kidnapping, they also captured Hawlucha, who attempted to protect him.

The two {{type|Flying}}s were then tied up to a tree. Noibat tried to use Supersonic on them, but failed due to Team Rocket's soundproof earphones. Hawlucha managed to cut the rope using his nails and tried to sneak away along with Noibat, but they were soon spotted by Team Rocket. Hawlucha successfully escaped with Noibat, after attacking {{TP|James|Inkay}} with {{m|High Jump Kick}}, and knocking it down together with {{TP|Jessie|Pumpkaboo}}. As they were still being pursued by the trio, Noibat spotted a cave and told Hawlucha to hide in there. Inside the pitch black cave, [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} tried to capture them and lure them into a trap set by Inkay and Pumpkaboo. Noibat used his ultrasound waves to sense the trio and had Hawlucha kick off their soundproof headphones, which allowed Noibat to use Supersonic, causing Team Rocket to flee. After Ash appeared and defeated Team Rocket with {{AP|Frogadier}} and {{AP|Pikachu}}, the two Flying-types left the cave. Afterwards, Noibat accepted Ash's offer to go with him and allowed himself to be captured in a [[Poké Ball]]. He was then let out and it trained to fly with Hawlucha and Fletchinder again.

In ''[[XY077|A Relay in the Sky!]]'', he continued to train how to fly along with Fletchinder and Hawlucha, Noibat struggled at tackling high winds, but Hawlucha taught Noibat how to deal with it. Afterwards the group noticed a {{p|Starly}}, {{p|Staravia}} and {{p|Staraptor}}. They went to the source of this, the [[Pokémon Sky Relay]], where they discovered that the birds came from the Sky Relay Champion, [[Orson]]. Later Ash used Fletchinder, Hawlucha and Noibat in the relay. Ash used Noibat in the last segment of the race. He started out in first place, but Starly was right behind him and had the advantage since Noibat hadn't fully mastered flying yet. Although he remained in first place initially, he encountered high winds, which Noibat struggled with. Starly used this to its advantage to pass Noibat and gain first place. After remembering his training with Hawlucha and everyone's support, it managed to overcome this and managed to get neck-to-neck with Starly. He eventually ended up second after barely losing to Starly, and was disappointed at first, but found that he had made his friends happy by learning to fly.

In [[XY103]] while Noibat was flying around as the group settled down for a rest, he accidentally rammed into a {{p|Breloom}} while it was admiring flowers it was planning to give to an orange flowered {{p|Floette}} to proclaim its love. As Noibat tried to apologize for crushing the flowers, the Breloom attacked him in rage first by using {{m|Poison Powder}}, then striking him down with its claw. When Floette passed by, she healed Noibat's condition using {{m|Aromatherapy}} and became friends with him. As Noibat flew around with her on his back the offending Breloom became heartbroken and furious, leading it to threaten Noibat with its {{p|Beedrill}} entourage to separate Floette from him. Noibat defended Floette by trying to fight Breloom one on one, but was beaten down. Before Breloom finished Noibat off, Floette saved him, but was then kidnapped by Team Rocket along with Breloom. Noibat used his ultrasound waves to search for their location after {{an|Clemont}}'s machine failed, and found them quickly. After repeatedly trying to break the cage that held Breloom and Floette hostage with {{m|Tackle}}, he learned a new move {{m|Acrobatics}} and successfully broke it. He then used the move to defeat James's Inkay, making Team Rocket blast off.

Noibat has the ability to use ultrasonic waves, which he first used in ''[[XY076|A Not-So-Flying Start!]]'' to tell if a fruit was bad or good. He later used it to spot Team Rocket in pitch darkness, allowing Hawlucha to attack them without being seen.

Noibat is shown to have a very parent-child like relationship with Ash. As such, Noibat is able to be calmed down easily by Ash, and very much enjoys being around him.

Ash's Noibat (Japanese: サトシのオンバット Satoshi's Onbat) is the fifth Pokémon that Ash caught in the Kalos region.

History

Noibat's Egg

In A Not-So-Flying Start!, Noibat was in its Egg when it was first found by Hawlucha, who was doing training exercises. The Wrestling Pokémon brought the Egg back to Ash and his friends, where it was about to hatch. In response, Ash, Pikachu, Fletchinder, Hawlucha, Bonnie, Dedenne, Pancham and Chespin covered the Egg to keep it warm whilst it hatched, with Fletchinder using its Flame Body Ability to help.

When it hatched, Noibat first saw Ash and was introduced to him and his Pokémon. Noibat was very stressed out, so it let out a powerful Supersonic attack, hurting everyone's ears. It was eventually calmed down by Ash. Afterwards, the group found apples for it with Noibat using it ultrasonic waves to sense the apples' taste. Noibat then attempted to fly, but failed causing it to launch another Supersonic until it was calmed down by Ash again. The group decided to help teaching Noibat how to fly with Hawlucha and Fletchinder aiding it. Despite Noibat improving it was still unable to fly. Whilst training with Hawlucha and Fletchinder, Team Rocket appeared and fired a net at Noibat whom they wanted to evolve into a Noivern. In the process of the kidnapping, they also captured Hawlucha, who attempted to protect it.

Ash and his Noibat

The two Flying-types were then tied up to a tree. Noibat tried to use Supersonic on them, but failed due to Team Rocket's soundproof earphones. Hawlucha managed to cut the rope using his nails and tried to sneak away along with Noibat, but they were soon spotted by Team Rocket. Hawlucha successfully escaped with Noibat, after attacking Inkay with High Jump Kick, and knocking it down together with Pumpkaboo. As they were still being pursued by the trio, Noibat spotted a cave and told Hawlucha to hide in there. Inside the pitch black cave, Jessie, James and Meowth tried to capture them and lure them into a trap set by Inkay and Pumpkaboo. Noibat used its ultrasound waves to sense the trio and had Hawlucha kick off their soundproof headphones, which allowed Noibat to use Supersonic, causing Team Rocket to flee. After Ash appeared and defeated Team Rocket with Frogadier and Pikachu, the two Flying-types left the cave. Afterwards, Noibat accepted Ash's offer to go with him and allowed itself to be captured in a Poké Ball. It was then let out and it trained to fly with Hawlucha and Fletchinder again.

In A Relay in the Sky!, it continued to train how to fly along with Fletchinder and Hawlucha, Noibat struggled at tackling high winds, but Hawlucha taught Noibat how to deal with it. Afterwards the group noticed a Starly, Staravia and Staraptor. They went to the source of this, the Pokémon Sky Relay, where they discovered that the birds came from the Sky Relay Champion, Orson. Later Ash used Fletchinder, Hawlucha and Noibat in the relay. Ash used Noibat in the last segment of the race. It started out in first place, but Starly was right behind him and had the advantage since Noibat hadn't fully mastered flying yet. Although it remained in first place initially, it encountered high winds, which Noibat struggled with. Starly used this to its advantage to pass Noibat and gain first place. After remembering its training with Hawlucha and everyone's support, it managed to overcome this and managed to get neck-to-neck with Starly. It eventually ended up second after barely losing to Starly, and was disappointed at first, but found that it had made its friends happy by learning to fly.

In XY103 while Noibat was flying around as the group settled down for a rest, he accidentally rammed into a Breloom while it was admiring flowers it was planning to give to an orange flowered Floette to proclaim its love. As Noibat tried to apologize for crushing the flowers, the Breloom attacked it in rage first by using Poison Powder, then striking it down with its claw. When Floette passed by, she healed Noibat's condition using Aromatherapy and became friends with him. As Noibat flew around with her on its back the offending Breloom became heartbroken and furious, leading it to threaten Noibat with its Beedrill entourage to separate Floette from it. Noibat defended Floette by trying to fight Breloom one on one, but was beaten down. Before Breloom finished Noibat off, Floette saved him, but was then kidnapped by Team Rocket along with Breloom. Noibat used it ultrasound waves to search for their location after Clemont's machine failed, and found them quickly. After repeatedly trying to break the cage that held Breloom and Floette hostage with Tackle, it learned a new move Acrobatics and successfully broke it. It then used the move to defeat James's Inkay, making Team Rocket blast off.
