Although the Generation III games show there to be at least two Magma Admins, only Tabitha ever appeared in the anime. His first appearance was in ''[[AG027|A Three-Team Scheme!]]'', where he led a group of Magma grunts in an exploration of some ancient ruins on [[Dewford Island]] in search of the [[Cave of Origin]]. They also had a confrontation with Team Aqua. Due to a dubbing error, he was mistakenly referred to as "Field Commander '''Harlan'''" during this episode, though his name was corrected in all subsequent appearances.

Tabitha appeared again in ''[[AG036|The Spheal of Approval]]''. He and two Magma grunts broke into the [[Oceanic Museum]] in order to steal a rock sample owned by [[Captain Stern]]. Although Ash and his friends attempted to stop them, Team Magma successfully made off with most of the sample.

In the Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire chapter, a second Tabitha was seen as a member of the reborn Team Magma. This Tabitha, alongside a new Courtney and a new Matt and Shelly, the Admins of the reborn Team Aqua, is seen teaming up with [[Zinnia]] in helping stop a meteroid from crashing into the planet and destroying it. He is also a former Devon employee, which allowed him to develop the Magma Suit for Zinnia to use.
In the {{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, a second Tabitha appears. This Tabitha, along with a new Courtney, is a member of Neo Team Magma (Japanese: '''新生マグマ団''' ''Neo Magma Gang''), having replaced the previous one. Along with Shelly, Tabitha is a former researcher from the Devon Corporation but hated his time working there due to [[Mr. Stone]]'s policies.
 
At Mossdeep City, Tabitha appears to help Zinnia in stopping the launch of a rocket that would stop the meteoroid threatening to destroy the world. He, Courtney, and the Admins of the reborn Team Aqua, battle Sapphire in order to distract her long enough for Zinnia to head to the rocket. Tabitha offers Zinnia a Magma Suit to use, only for Shelly to suggest that Zinnia use the Aqua Suit instead, leading them to argue with each other.
 
Later, the Admins are attacked by the Hoenn [[Frontier Brain]]s and are defeated. The Brains attempt to interrogate the Admins on Zinnia's whereabouts, but the Admins admit they don't know where she went to. Later, Tabitha and Shelly are called to [[Sootopolis City]] to assist in stopping the meteoroid.
