Wyndon first appeared briefly in Crackle!! Practice Battle, where Chairman Rose received a phone call from Leon at Rose Tower, regarding the endorsement he was planning to give to and .
Wyndon reappeared more prominently in Rumble!! The Horrific Darkest Day. Upon learning of Chairman Rose's plan to bring about the Darkest Day, most of the Galar Gym Leaders, , , Hop, Marnie, and Bede traveled to Wyndon to learn if what they had heard was true. They first went to Rose Tower, where they were confronted by Oleana, who told them that Rose wasn't there. The Gym Leaders battled Oleana while the others headed to the top floor via elevator, only to find out that Rose indeed wasn't there, although he did contact them through a screen from the Hammerlocke Stadium Energy Plant. Due to the unforeseen turn of events, he announced that he would start the Darkest Day immediately, instead of waiting for the Champion Cup to begin before doing so, like he had originally planned. As a result, across Galar began to react and numerous Pokémon started to Dynamax involuntarily across the region, prompting Henry, Casey, the rivals, and some of the Gym Leaders to head to Hammerlocke to stop Rose, while the remaining Gym Leaders scattered out to help deal with the crisis.
While the Darkest Day was active, Macro Cosmos observed the event from Rose Tower. In Oh My!! The Disappearance of Henry, following the disappearance of , Henry, the Rusted Sword, and the Rusted Shield, Casey was given permission to use Macro Cosmos's at Rose Tower to figure out where the artifacts had wound up at. She quickly tracked them down to the Isle of Armor and the Crown Tundra, though she couldn't tell which of them was in which location, or which of them Henry had wound up at.
In PASS40, Macro Cosmos resumed observing the Darkest Day as the cataclysm started again, indicating that Eternatus had reappeared somewhere, which was later revealed to be Hammerlocke.
In PASS43, several months after Eternatus had been stopped, the interrupted Gym Challenge continued with the Champion Cup semi-finals in Wyndon. With Henry having withdrawn from the Gym Challenge, the two Trainers who competed for the right to challenge Leon were Hop and Marnie.
