When Vincent suddenly arrived on the scene to stop Team Rocket, Meganium saved Jimmy and Marina by using a Solar Beam on a big rock coming from Steelix's Rock Throw that was heading for them. Meganium attacked Steelix with Solar Beam but it was proven ineffective.
Later, Meganium participated in the effort to save Raikou from Attila and Hun as Vincent had it use Solar Beam on the crystal-generated field along with Little Miss's Psybeam, as any non-Electric-type move could neither absorb or reflect it. Later, it worked together with Typhlosion to take on Attila's and Hun's Pokémon. Around the end of the battle, Steelix was about to finish them off with Crunch, but it was stopped by Raikou, who had managed to escape from Team Rocket's Crystal System.
Meganium is seen once more as they all band together to celebrate their victory against Team Rocket.
Meganium and Bulbasaur's rivalryMeganium and Vincent
In Tie One On!, during the Silver Conference, Jackson* first wanted to save Meganium for the Victory Tournament, but realized that it was a mistake for him to do that. Outside, Meganium, along with Azumarill, got into a rivalry with Ash's Bulbasaur and Squirtle respectively as they wanted to have the one apple that was hanging on the tree. Harrison's Miltank arrived and stopped them however with Heal Bell.
During the battle Jackson had with Ash, he sent out Meganium when two of his Pokémon were already defeated. Meganium was tied up against Bulbasaur. The two Grass types were still upset with each other about what happened before. They recklessly used their attacks on each other, not bothering to evade any of them, so as to prove that they could take as much punishment as they were willing to give. Their battle ended with a powerful Solar Beam clash that left the both of them unable to battle. Despite that, the Grass-type Pokémon started to get along, shaking vines.
Meganium is Vincent's most powerful Pokémon. Despite suffering a lot of damage in the battle against Team Rocket, it, along with Jimmy and Marina's Pokémon, managed to destroy the barrier that held the Legendary Pokémon. During the more peaceful Silver Conference, Meganium shows more of its personality, being quite provocative when bullying Ash's Pokémon. Meganium also developed a rivalry with Ash's Bulbasaur, during which it became more proud and decided to take a more serious tone.
