History

Pokémon Horizons: The Series

Oshawott being picked as Ann's first Pokémon

Samurott first debuted in The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One) as an Oshawott, when Ann received it as her first partner Pokémon from Indigo Academy. Oshawott quickly got along with its new trainer jumping onto her arms when it was called out of its Pokéball, later at night Oshawott slept with Ann while watching a Nidothing video about What a Pokémon Trainer is. In the next day it's battle debut against Liko's Sprigatito, it immediately listened to Ann's instructions and use Water Gun, jumping in front of her, which led to Sprigatito getting hit, and the battle was called off. After a few days, Oshawott went home with Ann for a school break.

In For Sure! 'Cause Sprigatito's with Me!, Oshawott was seen with Ann at school at the end of the episode, hearing stories about Liko's adventures.

In The Lonely Hatenna, it was revealed during a video call with Liko, that Oshawott gotten a new teammate, a Kantonian Sandshrew where its was shown to be fondly attached to its new partner. Afterwards Roy called Liko to battle, it was seen waving bye to Liko.

Samurott and Ann

In Welcome to Naranja Academy!, it was revealed that Oshawott had evolved into a Dewott and traveled with Ann to the Paldea region as she is an exchange student at Naranja Academy, enrolled in the Tera Training program, where it met Floragato and they had their first official battle with Dendra as referee. Floragato used Magical Leaf and Dewott used Water Pulse, where both of their moves collided. Afterward Dewott used its Razor Shell, where Floragato dodged and jumped away from Dewott's attacks, Floragato used Quick Attack while Dewott threw both of its scalchops, as Dewott got hit by Quick Attack, one of its scalchops ricocheted, hitting Floragato's back causing her to be visibly stunned. Taking the opportunity, Dewott used Aerial Ace, hitting Floragato effectively. With Floragato actively using her bud, Dewott was unable to use Razor Shell and got hit by Magical Leaf causing Dewott fainting and Liko and Floragato taking the victory.

In Infiltrating the System! Naranja Academy in Danger!, Ann used Dewott in her battle against Niko during the Tera Training tournament where it went up againgst her Roserade. The end result of the battle was never shown.

In Eyes to the Skies Once Again, Part 1, it was revealed that Dewott had evolved into a Samurott over the past year. In the following episode, it battled against Roy's Lucario, but ended up being defeated.

In HZ127, Samurott battled against Liko's Armarouge. Both Pokémon were evenly matched and eventually Terastallized, resulting in a series of attacks that knocked both of them out, resulting in a draw.

Personality and characteristics

Samurott's three-sword style

Samurott has always been shown to be friendly and affectionate to those it meets, such as in The Pendant That Starts It All (Part One), when it first met Ann and immediately welcomed her hug, and in The Lonely Hatenna, where it was seen being affectionate to the newly caught Sandshrew. Samurott is shown to be similar to its Trainer in many ways, as both are shown to be very passionate about Pokémon battles.

As a Samurott, it developed what was called its "three-sword style", which consists of dual-wielding its seamitars as well as attacking with its spear-like horn, allowing it to overwhelm an opponent.
