In the anime
History
Tsurugi first appeared in Leaping Toward the Dream!, when he helped save Ash and Goh after they were caught in a snowstorm after trying to battle an Alolan Ninetales. Once the storm cleared, they set out to find the Ninetales once more and encountered it. Tsurugi watched as Goh attempted to catch it, only for a Regice to intervene. Once Pikachu went down whilst battling Regice, Tsurugi sent out his Single Strike Style Urshifu to battle Iceberg Pokémon, knocking it back with a single Wicked Blow.
Back at the Project Mew Headquarters, Tsurugi questions Goh if he agrees to join the group and Goh reluctantly accepts.
In JN080, Tsurugi is seen monitoring the Alolan Ninetales and wishing to the Pokémon good luck in their new life, soon after Tsurugi is approached by Asahi and they discuss Goh's future within Project Mew.
Later, when Goh and Ash are ambushed by a group of Pokémon Hunters led by Nito, Tsurugi and Asahi engage in the battle, defeating their opponents with each using their own Urshifu. At the end of the mission, he chose to isolate himself from the others and give credit to Goh for all the events that took place that day.
Character
Tsurugi is a Top Chaser within Project Mew, with the highest score of all group members. Quiet and reserved, he takes his research work seriously, which led Tsurugi to disqualify Goh at first and then change his stance when Goh was able to fulfill the proposed mission.
Tsurugi appears to have a huge disdain for Pokémon Hunters and the way they handle their Pokémon.
