Darach appeared alongside Lady [[Caitlin]] in the {{chap|Platinum}} of ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]''. Darach first appeared when {{adv|Platinum}} started her challenge of the {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation IV)|Battle Castle}} and was in charge of giving her Castle Points while Caitlin watched the battles. Once Platinum manages to win enough battles to face the Frontier Brain, [[Looker]] is shocked to find out that Darach is in fact, the Battle Castle Frontier Brain instead of Caitlin; Darach and Platinum then begin their battle. | Darach appeared alongside Lady [[Caitlin]] in the {{chap|Platinum}} of ''[[Pokémon Adventures]]''.

In battle, Darach seems to have a different personality, this is shown when he drops his calm demeanor and starts laughing manically while confidently stating that he will win the battle. Despite the power his Pokémon possessed, Darach is eventually defeated once Platinum learns to manage money properly to find out his weaknesses. | In battle, Darach seems to have a different personality, this is shown when he drops his calm demeanor and starts laughing manically while confidently stating that he will win the battle.
