In ''[[PS378|Grumpy Gliscor]]'', Eldritch was manning a ship for the first time and is not worried about anything until his crew members note that there is food missing, due to {{adv|Diamond}} and his Pokémon. After stopping Diamond and his companions from eating the ship's food, that night he is attacked by a {{p|Gliscor}} but is saved with Don, Lax, and [[Tru]]'s help. It is after this battle that Diamond hands the note from [[Byron]] that he was supposed to hand over from the start, which states that Diamond's free to make this ship like his home. Eldritch regretfully accepts because he owes Byron for helping him find his wife. Eldritch then realizes that they are about to crash onto Iron Island until they are saved by [[Riley]] and his {{TP|Riley|Lucario}}'s {{m|Flash Cannon}}. | |||
In ''[[PS382|Vexing Vespiquen & Unmanageable Mothim II]]'', Eldritch witnesses the hatching of the [[Pokémon Egg]] found on Iron Island, reminding him of when his wife gave birth to his son. He later gives Diamond a lift back to [[Canalave City]]. | |||
Eldritch also appeared in a flashback in the {{chap|Platinum}}. Eldritch's son was suffering from a terrible nightmare and couldn't wake up. Eldritch found [[Tower Tycoon Palmer|someone willing to help]], and took that someone to [[Fullmoon Island]] where the {{p|Cresselia|Pokémon with the cure to recover from the nightmare}} could be found. | |||
