Looker has traveled to the [[Kalos]] region on an assignment to find and arrest [[Xerosic]] but keeps his affiliation with the International Police a secret from the player, introducing himself as a detective recently located to [[Lumiose City]]. The player first meets him after receiving an invitation to come to {{DL|North Boulevard|Looker Bureau}} over the [[Holo Caster]], the first time they enter Lumiose City after upgrading the [[Mega Ring]]. Looker signs the player on as his assistant in his fight for justice, and the two begin taking on cases together. During their first case, he meets a homeless young girl named [[Emma]] and her {{p|Espurr}} named Mimi, whom he decides to take under his wing. He becomes a father-figure to the girl, but because of their poor living conditions, Emma feels she is a burden to Looker and decides to look for a job to help support him. She finds a job at {{DL|Lumiose City|Lysandre Café}} and her employer turns out to be none other than Xerosic, who uses [[Emma]] as a test subject for a special suit that has a cloaking device and can power up any Pokémon the user has. Xerosic remotely controls the suit and makes Emma commit various crimes (although she is completely unaware of what she is doing). Looker and the player manage to rescue her, and Looker arrests Xerosic and leaves Kalos. He leaves a letter with Mimi that reveals his real position as a member of the International Police, and that he has paid for the property in full so that Emma may continue to call the bureau home and use it however she pleases. He also transfers his codename 'Looker' to the player character (this is merely a story point and has no impact on the gameplay). | Looker has traveled to the [[Kalos]] region on an assignment to find and arrest [[Xerosic]] but keeps his affiliation with the International Police a secret from the player, introducing himself as a detective recently located to [[Lumiose City]].
