Pokémon the Series

He first encountered Ash and his friends in Sunyshore City outside the Sunyshore Gym when Ash was captured by the autodefence hands. He sent out his Infernape to rescue Ash.

After his friend and rival Volkner wasn't willing to participate in a battle for a gym badge with Ash, Flint agreed to battle Ash hoping it would motivate Volkner again. Flint defeated Ash in a battle at the Sunyshore Gym which featured his Infernape verses Ash's Infernape, Buizel and Pikachu.

Pokémon World Championships Master Class Battle vs Leon's Charizard
Flint's Infernape battled against Leon's Charizard in a Pokémon World Championships Master Class Battle that Ash Ketchum just managed to see the end of at the Shoot Stadium in the Galar region. Charizard was able to avoid the deciding Infernape attack, a Mach Punch by using Flamethrower to give it some distance away from Infernape. It then followed up with a Dragon Claw, knocking Infernape to the ground to win the match. As a result of the match, Flint's ranking dropped from 7th to 8th.
