The Iron-Masked Marauder was | The Iron-Masked Marauder was first seen accosting an old {{pkmn|poacher|Pokémon hunter}} for information about a {{OBP|Celebi|M04}} he had pursued years ago. When the hunter refused to talk, he decided to show him the power of his [[Dark Ball]]s by using it on a captured {{p|Tyranitar}}. When the corrupted Tyranitar began destroying the hunter's camp, he showed the Iron-Masked Marauder where he found the Celebi. | ||
Using the hunter's information, the Iron-Masked Marauder set out for the forest in a large, spider-like mecha. He eventually came upon {{Ash}}, {{an|Misty}}, {{an|Brock}}, [[Sam]], and an injured Celebi. His attempt to capture the Pokémon failed when the [[Team Rocket trio]] intervened, but they quickly offered to join him after they recognized him. | Using the hunter's information, the Iron-Masked Marauder set out for the forest in a large, spider-like mecha.

When Ash and {{ashfr}} arrived to try and save Celebi, the Iron-Masked Marauder directed the corrupted Pokémon's attacks against them. Ash, {{AP|Pikachu}}, and Sam were narrowly saved from one blast by the arrival of {{OBP|Suicune|M04}}, prompting the Marauder to send out his Tyranitar to try and defeat it. Although the corrupted Armor Pokémon was beaten by Suicune and [[Brock's Onix]], the Marauder remained confident as he sent Celebi to destroy them. He watched Celebi trap and torture Suicune with dark energy, but consequently missed Ash, Pikachu, and Sam's infiltration of the construct. When the electric torture paused due to Celebi fighting the Dark Ball's control, the Marauder attempted to keep Celebi on his side, reminding it that the heroes were its enemies. Ultimately, Ash and Sam's pleas won out and Celebi snapped out of its trance, destroying the Marauder's Dark Ball and knocking him into the lake when the construct collapsed. | When Ash and {{ashfr}} arrived to try and save Celebi, the Iron-Masked Marauder directed the corrupted Pokémon's attacks against them.

The Iron-Masked Marauder made one final attempt to capture Celebi after its recovery, bursting out of the Lake of Life when the Pokémon flew over his hiding place. He attempted to escape with his jetpack, but Ash and Pikachu managed to grab onto his leg. While trying to kick Ash off, the Marauder was electrocuted by Pikachu's {{m|Thunderbolt}}, destroying his jetpack and sending all three of them plummeting.

The Iron-Masked Marauder is a villain with absolutely no redeeming qualities. He is shown to be a malicious psychopath and also a megalomaniac, dishonest, ruthless, cruel, and egocentric person. He values his own life above that of others, whether out of cowardice or selfishness, and has no qualms about harming others, be it [[human]]s or {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, for the sake of reaching his own goals. | The Iron-Masked Marauder is a villain with absolutely no redeeming qualities.

Not much is known about his origins. However, he has quite a reputation within Team Rocket, as [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} were all able to recognize him and immediately started kowtowing shamelessly. He seems to have a great deal of dislike for his boss, but will gladly use the help of other Team Rocket members to achieve his goals, as shown when he sided with the [[Team Rocket trio]] for the purpose of helping him carry out his plans and spreading the word about his newfound power. | Not much is known about his origins.

Brock used his {{TP|Brock|Onix}} to battle Tyranitar, but the powered-up Armor Pokémon was too strong for Brock's Rock Snake Pokémon. {{p|Suicune}}, however, was able to defeat Tyranitar with a powerful {{m|Bubble Beam}}, and Onix used the last of its strength to slam it into the [[Lake of Life]]. Later, after the Marauder was defeated, the freed Tyranitar was seen swimming through the lake and disappearing into the mist, sinking Team Rocket's raft on the way. | ||

This destroyed Celebi's Dark Ball, freeing it, and causing the huge "twig-monster", as [[James]] called it, to collapse into the lake.
