Sawyer's Sceptile (Japanese: ショータのジュカイン Shōta's Jukain) is Sawyer's starter Pokémon.
History
Prior to Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile!, Sawyer received Sceptile as a Treecko from Professor Birch. It battled with a wild Taillow sometime afterwards. It was unable to deal with Taillow the first time. Using the notes that Sawyer wrote down, Treecko practiced its movements and was able to battle Taillow properly the second time.
Treecko made its first onscreen appearance in Battling with Elegance and a Big Smile! where it had a battle with Clemont's Luxray at the Lumiose Gym. It attempted to use Razor Leaf* earlier on. However, this left an opening for Clemont to attack. Afterwards, since the timing of Treecko's attacks were off, Treecko was defeated by Luxray's Wild Charge, costing Sawyer the match.
Treecko reappeared in A Fashionable Battle! where it partook in a Double Battle with Bagon against Ash's Frogadier and Hawlucha. Although Treecko worked with Bagon to battle Hawlucha, the combination was interrupted by Frogadier's Water Pulse. Treecko used Bullet Seed twice on Frogadier but Frogadier dodged both of them. Treecko was then defeated by Frogadier's Cut despite having the type-advantage. Even though Bagon was left standing, Ash and Sawyer's Double Battle was interrupted when a fashion show was about to start.
Sawyer sent Treecko out in Fairy-Type Trickery! to watch Ash's Gym battle with Valerie. As spectators, he wanted Treecko to watch the battle so that both of them would learn a lot.
In Rivals: Today and Tomorrow!, Treecko helped Sawyer look for his notebook after it slipped out of his front pocket. After Slurpuff found it from Team Rocket as they thought that it belonged to Steven instead, Treecko battled Team Rocket alongside Pikachu. All of the attacks performed by the Pokémon, including Treecko, canceled each other out but Pikachu's second Thunderbolt sent Team Rocket blasting off.
During Sawyer and Ash's three-on-three battle, Sawyer sent out Treecko as his last Pokémon against Ash's Frogadier. Both Pokémon performed moves that were super effective against each other, as well as outspeed each other. Although determined to defeat Frogadier, Treecko evolved into Grovyle and learned Leaf Blade in the process. Despite the evolution, Grovyle still had trouble keeping up with Frogadier's movements. Grovyle went for Leaf Blade while Frogadier went for Cut. Both moves were elegantly dodged and then went for Bullet Seed and Water Pulse, respectively, causing smoke. Grovyle cleared the smoke with Leaf Blade, but Frogadier disappeared before it could happen. Frogadier launched another Water Pulse, which successfully connected with Grovyle, defeating it. As a result of the loss, the beginning of a rivalry between Grovyle and Frogadier began to develop.
Grovyle reappeared in From A to Z! where it chased after a group of Dodrio so that Sawyer could catch one.
Grovyle fought alongside Ash and his Pokémon against Celosia and three Team Flare Grunts. It was able to free Squishy from Celosia's Drapion's grasp with Leaf Storm. Grovyle fled alongside Ash and company when Pikachu's Thunderbolt and Drapion's Sludge Bomb clashed with each other, causing smoke.
Later, Grovyle fought Celosia and the three Team Flare Grunts again. It was assisted by Frogadier despite their rivalry. They continued their battle when Serena, Clemont, and Bonnie attempted to take Squishy to safety. Their battle was stopped when Celosia and the three grunts fled. After dealing with Team Flare, Sawyer and Grovyle left Ash and his friends the next day.
It reappeared in XY105 where it was revealed to have evolved into Sceptile. It was used in a battle against Ash's Greninja. Although Sceptile was able to match Greninja and even gained the edge due to its type advantage, it ultimately lost by a single hit when Greninja transformed into Ash-Greninja.
Personality and characteristics
Ever since Sawyer was with Treecko, it has been shown to get along with its Trainer quite well. Treecko was inexperienced in terms of battles, similar to when Sawyer started out on his journey. This was evident during its battle with a wild Taillow as Treecko was struggling with the battle. However, it was able to improve its movements with the help of Sawyer's notes. As a result, it was able to do well with Sawyer's second encounter with Taillow. Despite the training, Treecko still had much more training to go through as it didn't do well during Sawyer's Gym battle with Clemont when Sawyer arrived in the Lumiose Gym.
During Sawyer's time with Ash and his friends, Treecko gained more determination to get stronger. In both of the battles Sawyer had with Ash, as well as the one he had with Clemont, it had trouble dealing with Pokémon more experienced even though two of them had the disadvantage normally.
