History
Pre-series
When Samson taking a stroll, he came across a Komala who was blocking the road for a few farmers and travelers because it had lost its log. Samson wanted to give Komala a pineapple to replace its log but instead, it clung to Samson's face. From then on, Komala held on to Samson at all times, even when he carved a new log for it. One day, as Samson prepared to ring the bell of the Pokémon School, Komala took over and clung to the log used to ring the bell. Samson decided to keep it and Komala would continue to ring the bell every day on time.
Pokémon the Series: Sun & Moon
Samson debuted in Alola to New Adventure!. His cousin Professor Oak had assigned Ash and Delia to deliver an Egg to him, which they did. While Delia returned home, Ash chose to stay behind after becoming a student at the school.
In Lillie's Egg-xhilarating Challenge!, Samson assigned the students to look after one of two Eggs, one of them being the Egg that Delia and Ash had brought with them. They chose the white Egg and he looked after the other Egg, which hatched into a Vulpix in Getting to Know You!.
In Racing to a Big Event!, Samson entered the Pokémon Pancake Race with Komala and won.
To celebrate the Pokémon School's twentieth anniversary, Samson arranged a special field trip to Kanto to visit Professor Oak, along with Ash, his classmates, and Professor Kukui from Alola, Kanto! to When Regions Collide!.
In Let Sleeping Pokémon Lie!, Samson, along with Professor Kukui, Ash, and his classmates, helped Komala learn Sing, thus putting a stop to Jigglypuff's routine tantrums after noticing its audience sleeping through its songs.
In League Offenders and Defenders!, Samson surprised Ash and his classmates when he informed them that he would be entering the Manalo Conference. In Battle Royal 151!, Samson was among the 151 Trainers taking part in the Battle Royal preliminary round of the Manalo Conference. He entered with Komala and was ultimately among the 16 Trainers remaining at the end. The match-ups revealed that he would be battling Hau in the first round.
In Battling Besties!, Samson battled Hau in the first round of the Manalo Conference. He used his Alolan Exeggutor against Hau's Alolan Raichu, but it was defeated, thus eliminating Samson from the tournament.
Pokémon Journeys: The Series
In Helping the Hometown Hero!, Samson attended a party to celebrate the return of Lillie and her family to Alola after they found Mohn. The next day, Samson watched the Battle Royal match between Ash, Kiawe, Gladion, and Professor Kukui.
In Paring Pokémon While Parrying!, Samson was seen watching Ash's Masters Eight Tournament match against Leon at the Pokémon School.
Character
Samson is a cheerful and zany individual who enjoys making puns with the names of Pokémon while usually doing a visual impression, much to the embarrassment or confusion of those around him. Despite rarely engaging in battling, Samson is a very talented Pokémon Trainer, having managed to advance through the Battle Royal preliminary round of the Manalo Conference. Much like his cousin, Samson enjoys studying Pokémon and learning more about them, specializing in regional forms and Totem Pokémon of the Alola region.
