Pokémon Adventures
Marshal is first seen in Nimbasa City, carrying an unconscious White after finding her unconscious underneath the Rondez-View Ferris Wheel. When Black sees Marshal with White, he assumes that Marshal attacked her and sends out his Pokémon to battle. After easily defeating Black's Pokémon, Marshal gives White to him and explains everything. As he leaves, Marshal tells Black to take White to a hospital. Afterward, Marshal arrives at the seabed, where he meets with Alder.
When Black and White arrive at the Battle Subway, they find Marshal and Alder battling each other. Despite Marshal seemingly gaining the upper hand, the battle ends in Alder's favor. The Mayor of Nimbasa City reveals that the battle between Marshal and Alder was part of a series of tests for Battle Subway before it opened to the public. Despite a lack of battling experience, White decides to take part in the next Battle Subway test. Later, Marshal finds Black sulking due to being jealous that White was chosen to test the Battle Subway and not him. Marshal tells Black to stop complaining and sends him off to help White catch her first Pokémon. After Black and White succeed in their mission to capture a Pokémon, Marshal notices that Black's newly caught Tirtouga used to belong to him before he released it a day earlier.
On Route 6, Marshal tries to convince Alder to not leave the Pokémon League, only for his pleas to be refused. They are approached by N, who challenges Alder to a Double Battle. Alder accepts N's challenge while Marshal referees the battle. In the end, Alder loses and eventually disappears, allowing Team Plasma to use his defeat as a means to justify their goals, which only increased the amount of released Pokémon and lowered the number of Pokémon League spectators.
At the Pokémon League, Marshal gathers with his fellow Elite Four members to make way for the tournament. Marshal, furious at how Team Plasma has used Alder's defeat to justify their goals, asks his allies to help join in the fight against them. Much to his disappointment, none of them agree with his wishes. The four then watch as spectators for the tournament before their battles can begin. Although the tournament is won by Black, the event is interrupted by Team Plasma, who attacks the stadium by surrounding it with N's Castle. The Elite Four travel on Shauntal's Golurk to try and confront N at the top of the castle, but they are attacked by Hood Man, who uses Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus against them to try and figure out how to activate the three Pokémon's Therian Formes. After gaining sufficient information, Hood Man escaped, taking the Pokémon with him.

Trivia
- In his pre-National Pokédex battle in Black and White, Marshal is the only member of any Elite Four who has no dual-type Pokémon.
- During the Challenge Mode rematch in Black 2 and White 2, Marshal's Conkeldurr is holding a Flame Orb, despite not having Guts to take advantage of it. This is due to difficulty modes not affecting the Abilities of Marshal's Pokémon.
- According to an interview with Yusuke Ohmura in Nintendo Dream, Marshal's theme is a street fighter and tiger, and his original design featured a large hood and cap.[3]
