As a Makuhita

Hariyama was first seen in Brave the Wave, as a Makuhita, where it was surfing with Brawly, something they were both interested in. While they were surfing, Makuhita lost its footing and fell over but recovered quickly when they got back to shore. When Team Rocket arrived to catch Pikachu, Makuhita swam very quickly on its surfboard and caught up to Team Rocket, tackling them and rescuing Pikachu in the process.

During the Gym battle against Ash, Brawly sent it out after his Machop got defeated under the hands of Ash's Treecko. In the first part of their battle, Makuhita rolled over sideways every time it got hit by an attack, similiar to what Machop did when battling Ash's Taillow. Makuhita's strength in power and skill caused it to hold off Treecko's excessive Pound attacks, gaining the upper hand. Makuhita evolved into Hariyama when Treecko got up after it was hit by Seismic Toss. Treecko was no match for Hariyama as its Pound attack was rendered useless. With the massive power boost Hariyama gained via evolution, Hariyama finished Treecko off easily with a powerful Knock Off, thus defeating Ash. After the battle, it was then surfing with Brawly. Hariyama was able to improve its footing skills when it evolved.

Brawly and Hariyama surfing

Hariyama reappeared in A Meditite Fight where it stops a falling rock caused by the big storm from crushing Brawly and Shauna. After the storm subsided, Hariyama takes on Team Rocket and single-handedly defeats them with Arm Thrust.

During Ash's rematch against Brawly in Just One of the Geysers, Brawly sends out Hariyama to handle Corphish after the latter defeated Machop. Hariyama immediately attacks with Arm Thrust. Ash has his Corphish to use Harden to take in the blows Hariyama is delivering in order for Hariyama to get tired. However, Hariyama was able to keep going despite all that. Next, Corphish dives underwater to surprise Hariyama with Crabhammer which works. In the end, Hariyama takes out Corphish with Seismic Toss, leaving Ash with Treecko. Unlike last time, Treecko uses Pound on Hariyama's legs instead of Hariyama itself since the footing is usually the weakness for Hariyama. After Hariyama gets hit by more Pound attacks on the legs, it was not able to hit Treecko with Vital Throw. With both Pokémon getting tired, Treecko was able to finish off Hariyama during the deciding match with Treecko and Hariyama using Pound and Knock Off respectively, winning Ash the Knuckle Badge.

As a Makuhita

Hariyama in Pokémon Adventures

Hariyama, as Makuhita, was the second Pokémon sent out in Brawly's Gym battle with Sapphire in VS. Makuhita. While Toro, now newly evolved into a Combusken, easily defeated his Machop, forcing him to recall it, Hariyama, even as Makuhita, gave Sapphire's new Lairon, Rono, a hard time, this time forcing the challenger to withdraw, as her Pokémon, even evolved, now stood no chance. Toro is then forced to switch out to take over for its teammate, but even with its strong Flamethrower attack, it had no means of getting past the rotund fighter's Thick Fat Ability, and is easily thrown aside. Things would only get worse when Makuhita uses his stored energy to then evolve into Hariyama, but after a close call, Combusken's Double Kick scores a win, earning Sapphire her second Badge fair and square.

Much later, in VS. Kyogre & Groudon XII, Hariyama defeats Mack and his two illusion-producing Slugma using the tactics Brawly learned from his old friend Bruno, but doing so both he and his Trainer spent enough of their vitality that they fainted, and Mack got away.
