Artazon was first mentioned by Alex at the end of HZ009, telling Liko and Friede that the Black Rayquaza may have seen by Brassius, an artist who lives in the town.

Artazon first appeared in HZ010, where it was visited by Liko and Roy. During their visit, they met Nemona and Brassius, learning that the Gym Leader was experiencing a slump after an encounter with the Black Rayquaza, causing him to have temporarily closed the Artazon Gym. After learning that Rayquaza had served as an inspiration for Roy's journey, Brassius challenged him to a battle to see if he was worthy of facing the Legendary Pokémon. The battle ended in Brassius's victory after he Terastallized his Sudowoodo. Afterwards, he directed Liko and Roy to the forest where he had seen Rayquaza.
