Stunfisk was first seen inhabiting a lake with its friend {{AP|Palpitoad}} and a group of {{p|Tympole}} in ''[[BW032|Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!]]''. Palpitoad asked for Stunfisk's help to get rid of {{Ash}} and {{AP|Oshawott}} as it viewed them as intruders. Stunfisk managed to get them out of the lake and planned to guard against them, but {{an|Cilan}} used his [[fishing]] skills with his special lure to catch and pull Stunfisk to shore. Palpitoad then appeared before the group and had Stunfisk fire {{m|Mud Bomb}} at the [[Pokémon Connoisseur]] but he managed to evade it. Cilan then lifted his fishing rod in the air and started to spin Stunfisk around, keeping it at bay until Ash was able to defeat Palpitoad. Once he did, Cilan dropped the Trap Pokémon to the ground which, with the combination of dizziness, knocked it out and Cilan captured it.

In ''[[BW041|The Club Battle Hearts of Fury: Emolga Versus Sawk!]]'', it battled against [[Luke]]'s {{p|Larvesta}} in the quarter finals of the [[Club Battle]] tournament, in which Stunfisk showed the remarkable ability to leap into the air and glide, flapping its fins as wings. Even though Stunfisk's {{m|Scald}} was super effective against Larvesta, Larvesta minimized the damage by covering itself in its own {{m|String Shot}}, acting as a shield. Larvesta then roasted Stunfisk with a powerful {{m|Flamethrower}}, knocking it out.

However, Pikachu was knocked off Stunfisk's back and it was then struck by a powerful {{m|Hammer Arm}} attack, knocking it out.

In its debut, Stunfisk was quite aggressive, like the other Pokémon living in the lake. However strong Stunfisk was, it still obeyed {{AP|Palpitoad}}, proving it doesn't function well in a group without being a 'follower'. After Cilan caught Stunfisk, its personality did not change; as shown in ''[[BW036|Archeops In The Modern World!]]'' where after being brought out by {{TP|Iris|Emolga}}'s {{m|Volt Switch}} it attacked a newly revived curious {{p|Archen}} with a {{m|ThunderShock}} attack when Archen bit it and subsequently laughed.

History

Stunfisk in its debut

Best Wishes series

Unova

Stunfisk was first seen inhabiting a lake with its friend Palpitoad and a group of Tympole in Facing Fear with Eyes Wide Open!. Palpitoad asked for Stunfisk's help to get rid of Ash and Oshawott as it viewed them as intruders. Stunfisk managed to get them out of the lake and planned to guard against them, but Cilan used his fishing skills with his special lure to catch and pull Stunfisk to shore. Palpitoad then appeared before the group and had Stunfisk fire Mud Bomb at the Pokémon Connoisseur but he managed to evade it. Cilan then lifted his fishing rod in the air and started to spin Stunfisk around, keeping it at bay until Ash was able to defeat Palpitoad. Once he did, Cilan dropped the Trap Pokémon to the ground which, with the combination of dizziness, knocked it out and Cilan captured it.

In The Club Battle Hearts of Fury: Emolga Versus Sawk!, it battled against Luke's Larvesta in the quarter finals of the Club Battle tournament, in which Stunfisk showed the remarkable ability to leap into the air and glide, flapping its fins as wings. Even though Stunfisk's Scald was super effective against Larvesta, Larvesta minimized the damage by covering itself in its own String Shot, acting as a shield. Larvesta then roasted Stunfisk with a powerful Flamethrower, knocking it out.

In Stopping the Rage of Legends! Part 1 Stunfisk was called out to battle Tornadus and Thundurus, blocking a Thunder attack aimed at Axew with its Mud Bomb, it then teamed up with Pikachu to battle. Stunfisk used its amazing jumping ability to get itself and Pikachu into the air so that they could launch a Thunder ShockThunderbolt combination at the two legendary Pokémon. However, Pikachu was knocked off Stunfisk's back and it was then struck by a powerful Hammer Arm attack, knocking it out.

Stunfisk and Cilan

In Cilan Takes Flight!, Cilan called upon Stunfisk to participate in Skyla's "Air Battle" simulation, during which she predicted that Stunfisk would be defeated by her Swoobat. However, by the time Stunfisk was sent out to battle her, Swoobat had already been defeated by Crustle. Stunfisk was sent out to fight Skyla's Swanna after Crustle was defeated. Despite Thunder Shock being extremely effective against Swanna, it was still able to throw Stunfisk off momentum and into the air with Hurricane. Cilan had Stunfisk take advantage of its situation and use Scald while spinning, showering Swanna in hot water, which burnt it. Stunfisk was then defeated after Swanna used Aqua Ring to heal the burn and hit it with Brave Bird.

In Crisis at Ferroseed Research!, Stunfisk helped a group of Ferroseed, who had become overcharged with electricity, by soaking up the excess electrical energy then releasing it outside.

In Battling Authority Once Again!, Stunfisk battled Horatio's Cinccino during the second round of the Pokémon World Tournament Junior Cup. Stunfisk won the battle with its newly learned Sludge Bomb attack, allowing Cilan to advance to the semi-final round.

Decolore Islands

Stunfisk was called out in To Catch a Rotom! by Cilan to find out how its Thunder Shock attack would taste to a trio of Rotom. Much to Stunfisk's embarrassment, the Plasma Pokémon disliked the electricity it produced. When Team Rocket began their plan to capture the Rotom by feeding them electricity, Stunfisk volunteered to help by feeding them its own, but was shot down by Cilan. However, Stunfisk managed to rescue the Rotom alongside Krookodile and Excadrill by shielding them from the electricity, absorbing it as a Ground-type.

Stunfisk appeared in SS027 to help out a beginning Trainer named Ayumi and her partner Pikachu perfect Pikachu's Thunderbolt.
