At the beginning of the Battle Frontier saga, Tucker was assaulted by {{adv|Emerald}} while riding to the Battle Frontier Opening Ceremony on his {{p|Salamence}}. Tucker was promptly tied up and thrown backstage during the opening ceremony, where he is found by the other Brains after Emerald bumps into them, thinking that [[Scott]] was a desk attendant. They untie him and he starts yelling at Emerald, on stage. Scott tells him to be quiet, and Tucker grows a flaming grudge against Emerald. Tucker bears witness to Emerald's victory over Noland, and immediately tries to make the boy come to his facility. However, the Battle Dome is actually Emerald's fifth challenge, and the only one he lost.

Unlike the games, Tucker actually takes part in the tournaments rather than just challenging a Trainer after winning a set number of tournaments. He also says that in accordance with tournament rules, the winner of the tournament, whether it be him, Emerald, or someone else, will receive the symbol. However, he also adds that he won't lose, and is the only Brain to be able to defeat Emerald, if only because he switched out his entire party.

*Tucker's Swampert knows and used five moves in his battle versus {{Ash}}, while Pokémon are said to be able to learn only four moves at a time.

*Tucker is the only Frontier Brain that Emerald didn't defeat to win the symbol, aside from {{FB|Salon Maiden|Anabel}}, who simply awarded him her Ability Symbol for having battled with her fairly while she was under [[Guile Hideout|Guile's]] control. In turn, he is also the only Brain who has never lost the fight to Emerald to yield him the symbol, since the 10 [[Pokédex]] [[Pokédex holder|Holders]] had their own tournament instead.
