Manga

Pokémon Adventures

N and fainted tympole — N and his Tympole in the Pokémon Adventures Manga.

N is shown to be owning a Tympole as he used it against a match against Black, though after his Tympole lost he didn't return it to its Poké Ball because he thinks that Pokémon are his friends and he shouldn't trap it in a Poké Ball.
