Mr. Verich first appears at [[Gateon Port]], where he stops a thug named Zook from beating [[Michael]]'s sister, [[Jovi]], up. He also provides free food and drink to the patrons of the [[Krabby Club]], a bar in Gateon Port.  However, for most of the game, Mr. Verich's purpose is unknown, and his existence is hardly referenced to at all.
Mr. Verich first appears at [[Gateon Port]], where he stops a Thug by the name of [[Zook]] who is pushing around the [[Michael|player]] and his sister [[Jovi]]. After having one of his bodyguards, [[Ardos]], defeat him in battle, Verich chastises Zook for his actions and leaves. He can then be found at {{DL|Gateon Port|The Krabby Club}}, where he provides free food and drink to the patrons.

Mr. Verich has an alternate identity, [[Greevil]], head of [[Cipher]].  This makes him a parallel of the [[Pokémon Colosseum]] character [[Mayor Es Cade]], though Mr. Verich is the true head of the organization. His identity is only revealed once Michael defeats [[Gorigan]] at the [[Cipher Key Lair]], where he invites Michael to [[Citadark Isle]]. When Michael is about to confront him for the first time, he tries to escape by putting up a barrier.


When he has is confronted for a second time, he battles Michael with [[Shadow Lugia|XD001]] before sending out his own party of six Pokémon. After being defeated, [[Ardos]] almost convinces him to restart the [[Shadow Pokémon]] project, but [[Eldes]] addresses Mr. Verich by father. He surrenders the idea of Shadow Pokémon and lets the justice be given to him for what he has done.
After the player shuts down the [[Cipher Key Lair]] and defeats [[Gorigan]], Mr. Verich disappears, much to the dismay of the residents of Gateon Port.
