Bugsy was the gym leader of the [[Johto|Azalea Town]] Pokémon gym. Despite his youth, he had an extensive knowledge of Pokémon and constantly conducted research in hopes of becoming an authority on Bug-type Pokémon. In ''Gold'', ''Silver'', ''Crystal'', ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver'', he was eventually challenged and defeated by [[Ethan]]/[[Lyra]]. After being defeated, he was impressed by the trainer's performance and realized that his research was not complete yet. He gave the trainer the Hivebadge as well as TM 49: Fury Cutter (or TM 89: U-Turn in ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver'').

Bugsy was the gym leader of the [[Azalea Town]] Pokémon gym. Despite his youth, he had an extensive knowledge of Pokémon and underwent frequent researching in hopes of becoming an authority on Bug-type Pokémon.
  
In ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver'', he would later travel to the Viridian Forest on Thursdays in search of more Bug-types, and Ethan/Lyra could exchange Pokégear numbers with him there. Bugsy also spent his Fridays at the National Park, where a picture could be taken with him. He also talked about Saturday's Bug-Catching Contest enthusiastically and said that he did not compete in them because he had already won many times. Calling his number on Thursdays (between the hours of 10AM and 8PM) will result in Bugsy appearing at the Fighting Dojo in Saffron City for a rematch.

In ''Gold'', ''Silver'', ''Crystal'', ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver'', he was eventually challenged and defeated by [[Gold]]. After being defeated, he was impressed and realized her research was not complete yet. So he gave Gold the Hivebadge as well as TM 49: Fury Cutter (or TM 89: U-Turn in ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver''). In ''HeartGold'' and ''SoulSilver'', he could later be challenged to a rematch.
 
 
In ''[[Pokémon: Black and White Versions 2|Black and White 2]]'', Bugsy competed in the Pokémon World Tournament at [[Unova]], taking part in the Johto Leaders, World Leaders and Type Expert Tournaments.

In ''[[Pokémon Masters EX]]'', Bugsy and his Beedrill appeared as a playable sync pair that could be recruited at random through the game's Sync Pair Scout feature. In battle, he could Mega Evolve his Beedrill by using a sync move. An alternate sync pair of Bugsy with Scyther was also made available through a limited-run Sync Pair-Up Event that initially started in July 2021. Within the game's Main Story, Bugsy was initially featured in Chapter 14, where [[Scottie/Bettie|the player]] had to fight him and [[Viola]] (another Bug-type gym leader) as part of the [[Pokémon Masters League]] tournament. He wanted to prove how awesome Bug-type Pokémon were, but he remained content after losing and had Viola take a picture of him with Lottie/Bettie. Bugsy then endeavored to seek out other Bug-type trainers and study how they battled. In the Villain Arc, Bugsy played a role in the Johto chapter where he and [[Whitney]] lured members of [[Team Rocket]] into [[Lear]]'s mansion to keep other sync pairs safe, and Busgy was shown to bear a grudge against them due to hearing about their treatment of [[Slowpoke]] from [[Kurt]]. Bugsy also appeared in some extra scenes of some Story Events in which he admired others' Bug-type Pokémon: [[Guzma]]'s [[Golisopod]] in "Team Skull Crash Course" and [[Lusamine]]'s [[Pheromosa]] in "Family Ties". In the "Kris's Worries" Solo Event, he and [[Falkner]] helped [[Kris]] to search for her missing [[Suicune]]. Bugsy was additionally featured as an opponent in [[Viola]]'s Sync Pair Story, where he had to be defeated in a one-on-one battle in order for Viola's [[Surskit]] to evolve.
