Biography[]
On their first mission to be accepted into Team Rocket's ranks, Butch and Cassidy used Raticate to help them in stealing Snorlax. They ran towards the cage to capture Snorlax, but fell in a pitfall trap, injuring themselves.[1]
The Beginning series[]
Once Misty uncovered the scam behind the Breeding Center, Officer Jenny came to arrest the duo. In haste, Cassidy sent Raticate to battle them, but the latter was quickly defeated by Ash's Pikachu's Thunderbolt.[2]
Gold and Silver series[]
The heroes discovered Butch and Cassidy's Pokémon theft operation, so Ash's Totodile and Misty's Staryu fought Butch's Primeape and Cassidy's Raticate. Raticate tackled Totodile, who used Bite in retaliation. Primeape joined the battle, and as it got struck by Staryu's Rapid Spin, it punched it with Dynamic Punch. The strong attack forced Misty to call Staryu back. Jessie and James joined in, the latter having Victreebel attack Raticate, striking it quickly with Stun Spore and Razor Leaf combo. Jessie sent Wobbuffet as well, who deflected Raticate's attack with Counter. However, Wobbuffet was defeated with Primeape's Outrage, and the attack struck James and Meowth, too. Raticate's Quick attack blasted Meowth, Jessie and James away. Butch and Cassidy turned to the heroes, who attempted to rescue the stolen Pokémon. Misty sent Poliwhirl to use Double Slap on Raticate, while Totodile used Bite on Primeape. To defeat them, Poliwhirl blasted them with Water Gun, whereas Pikachu's Thunderbolt knocked them down.[3]
