Evice (Japanese: ワルダック Wardack) is the criminal mastermind behind Cipher. He is the only character in the games to have the Trainer class Cipher Head (Japanese: シャドーのボス Shadow Boss).
He disguises himself as the mayor of Phenac City under the name of Es Cade (Japanese: バックレー Backley). In his disguise, he is a fat and jolly gentleman who appears to be worried about the increase in crime caused by Cipher and Team Snagem, yet as the head of Cipher, he appears to have done nothing to stop either of them, ensuring that Snagem and Cipher work without interference.
In Pokémon Colosseum
When Wes and Rui arrived in Phenac City, members of Cipher surrounded the city. One of them, Nascour, was seen leaving Es Cade's house. Wes and Rui chased away the Cipher operatives from Phenac City, and Es Cade promised to investigate Cipher in return.
After Wes and Rui defeated Miror B., Dakim, Ein, Venus, Gonzap, and Nascour at Realgam Tower, Es Cade revealed his true intentions - his role as the head of Cipher, whom Nascour reports to.
Evice provided Team Snagem with powerful technology. In return, Team Snagem snagged Pokémon from innocent trainers. They were transformed into Shadow Pokémon at the Shadow Pokémon Laboratory - then shipped via the Under Subway and dispensed to the general public in Pyrite Town and the Under.
Evice then built Realgam Tower. The diabolical mastermind wanted to attract wealthy Pokémon fans to the sky-scraper and charge them money to see malicious tournaments between Shadow Pokémon.
Wes managed to defeat Evice's most powerful Pokémon, Tyranitar. Chief Sherles arrived to arrest Evice, but the rotund villain tried to make a quick get-away on a helicopter.
The Legendary Pokémon, Ho-Oh, put a stop to that - and Evice's evil scheme was put to an end. Evice and Nascour were arrested by Sherles.

Trivia
- Evice's name appears to be a combination of "evil" and "vice." "Vice", in addition to implying wrongdoing, may also imply the possibility that Evice isn't the true leader of Cipher. This is confirmed by Sherles in Pokémon XD, where he mentions that Evice wasn't the absolute leader to begin with.
- Despite Wes still being a member of Team Snagem when they were given the Snag machines, he did not see Evice before leaving the group.
