Red, Green & Blue arc
Red first met Snor in Wake Up—You’re Snorlax!, where he was blocking the Route 12 which was being used for a bike race. Red managed to wake Snorlax up with some Beedrill honey that had dripped onto Saur. After this Snorlax followed Red all the way to the goal of the race, where he was then caught by him.
In Golly, Golem!, Snor is used as Red's first Pokémon against Giovanni. Snor makes the first attack, but Giovanni uses his speed against him by having Nidoqueen Counter Snor's attack, before flinging the heavy Pokémon through the wall and out of the Gym. As Giovanni switches to Golem, Red decides to have the ricocheting Pokémon bounce its way out of the Gym so Snor can attack, but Giovanni makes use of Snor's Headbutt shattering Golem to pummel Snor with Rock Throw, and faint it with Explosion.
In A Charizard...and a Champion, Red uses Snor against Blue Charizard in the Pokémon League finals, though Blue immediately switches in and sends out Machamp. Through its four arms he blocks Snor's limbs and prevents him from attacking. Machamp then easily lifts Snor with his four arms, before spinning him about to render Snor dizzy and slamming him onto the floor. After Snor hits the ground Red quietly tells Snor to use Harden in anticipation of Machamp's next attack. However, Machamp instead attacks the ground, using the shattered debris as a lever to catapult Snor into the air and out of the battlefield.
