Quotes
Pokémon X and Y
- First meeting
- "Forget it. Quit wasting your time with this person."
- Before battle
- "Let's take him/her on two versus one. We must improve our chances of winning."
- "There's another one?"
- Being defeated
- "Probability is just probability, after all... Absolutes do not exist."
- After being defeated
- "Oh my, oh my?"
- Before battle
- "Huh?"
- "Huh."
- "I've seen this kid somewhere before."
- "I have no idea. But obviously he's/she's not in Team Flare. Let's get him/her, yeah?"
- After defeating Celosia
- "Oh! What a brute! Look at poor Celosia!"
- Being defeated
- "Your ability flies in the face of all probability! Just what is the source of your power?"
- After being defeated
- "We've been using the electricity we stole from the Power Plant to get everything prepared for activating the ultimate weapon. But it's not like that's all we'll need to use it. Are you following me? We'll need energy absorbed from Pokémon to power the device! Yes! It's the stones on Route 10 that will steal that energy for us and power the ultimate weapon!"
- If talked to again
- "That's right. The stones on Route 10 normally put out energy, but when the ultimate weapon is activated, that reverses and they begin to absorb energy from Pokémon!"

In the anime
Bryony made her anime debut in From A to Z!, where Xerosic sent her to retrieve the Zygarde Core that had escaped from Lysandre Labs. She was later seen cornering the Core, but the Core managed to summon its nearby Cells, allowing it to transform into its 10% Forme and counterattack, forcing Bryony and her assistant Grunts to retreat. She was later seen informing Celosia of what had happened.
She reappeared in Meeting at Terminus Cave!, teaming up with Celosia to retrieve Squishy in Terminus Cave. After a prolonged struggle, during which Team Rocket interfered as well, Team Flare was forced to retreat, as they were unable to defeat Ash's Greninja and Squishy had fled . In the next episode, she, along with Celosia and several Grunts, monitored sensors to find Squishy. Bryony and Celosia also ordered two Grunts to watch Ash and his friends. Later, the sensors caught energy waves coming from Squishy and Z2 and managed to determine Squishy's location. They, however, were unable to make it in time and lost sight of Squishy, as it had stopped emitting energy waves. Bryony and Celosia then ordered the pursuit squad to withdraw, as they thought Squishy probably wouldn't return to Ash and his friends, and decided to narrow their search.

Bisharp first appeared in From A to Z!, where it was used by Bryony whilst attempting to retrieve the Zygarde Core after it had escaped, but got defeated after the Core transformed to its 10% Form. It reappeared in Meeting at Terminus Cave!, where Bisharp was used to battle Ash and his friends. It attacked Ash's Noibat with Iron Head, after it gained the upper hand against Celosia's Drapion, and managed to stun the group's Pokémon with Metal Sound. Bisharp was eventually defeated by Squishy again, after it transformed to its 10% Form.
Bisharp's known moves are Iron Head, Metal Sound, and Stone Edge.
Liepard debuted in Meeting at Terminus Cave!, where it was sent out to pursue Squishy, alongside Celosia's Manectric. It was stopped in its tracks by Ash's Pikachu and Greninja. Together with Manectric, they managed to damage Greninja, but when Greninja transformed to its Ash-Greninja Form, it was easily overpowered and beaten back.
Liepard's only known move is Shadow Claw.
In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
Bryony makes her first appearance in the X & Y arc alongside her fellow Team Flare members. She, Celosia, and Xerosic witness the legendary Pokémon Xerneas and Yveltal rampage through Vaniville Town during a battle with each other. They note that they need the Pokémon to power their ultimate weapon, but currently have no means as to capture them.
Bryony is the last of the five Team Flare scientists to become active in the plot. She first takes action when X attempts to sneak in to Team Flare's Secret HQ. She notices that after prolonged usage of her Aegislash, Celosia begun to lose control of herself. As an act of mercy, Bryony has her Bisharp knock Celosia unconscious and then sends Aliana and Mable away. When the ultimate weapon is activated, Bryony heads outside to find the Kalos Gym Leaders and X's friends attempt to keep it closed. Bryony attacks the heroes and uses her intelligence to easily see through their various techniques. When Tierno, Trevor, and Shauna are told the location of ultimate weapon's control room, Bryony chases after the three and attempts to kill them. They are saved at the last second by Clemont, allowing them to continue to the ultimate weapon's control room.
The heroes make their way to the control room and work together to prevent the ultimate weapon from firing. Although the weapon still fires, the combined efforts of the heroes weakened the ultimate weapon enough to prevent its beam from taking any innocent lives. When a revived Xerneas breaks from the control room to the surface with X's friends on its back, Bryony leads a group of Team Flare Grunts to try and recapture it. Y gets to Xerneas first and adds it to her team. She then has Xerneas defeat Bryony and the Grunts with a Geomancy-Horn Leech combination.
