Timmy was known as '''Phantom''' (Japanese: '''ファントム''' ''Phantom'') because all of his {{pkmn|Contest}} challenges were done in disguise. He dressed up as his {{p|Dusclops}}, and nobody knew his real name. This was due to the fact that his [[Mrs. Grimm|mother]] hated {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}, and forbade her son from battling with them. However, Timmy's [[Tommy Grimm|father]] felt sorry for Timmy, so he would occasionally lie, which would allow Timmy to go out and participate in Contests.
Timmy, with the help of [[Tommy Grimm|his father]], created his '''Phantom''' (Japanese: '''ファントム''' ''Phantom'') alter ego to remain anonymous while he competed in {{pkmn|Contest}}s against [[Mrs. Grimm|his mother's]] wishes. His mom forced him to study so he could eventually takeover the family business.


When Mrs. Grimm found out Timmy's secret, she angrily drove off to the [[Contest Hall]] to confront him. However, after seeing how close he was to his Pokémon, she began to encourage him to go on and battle. As it turned out, Mrs. Grimm once loved Pokémon just as much as Timmy did. Her parents forbade her to use them, even taking away the {{p|Poochyena}} that she had adopted, so she stopped caring about them to avoid getting hurt again. Timmy was able to remind her of the good times she had with her Pokémon and make her see that it's okay to like them.
Tensions between Timmy and his mother flared as Phantom continued to make more appearances around town. In ''[[AG061|Disaster of Disguise]]'', Timmy ran away and narrowly escaped his mother finding out his secret as Mrs. Grimm arrived during his battle against {{Ash}}. The group were later hired by Mrs. Grimm to uncover Phantom's identity, but they went on to support Timmy in his Contest ambitions. {{an|Brock}} later convinced Mrs. Grimm that he was Phantom in a ploy.


Timmy competed in the [[Verdanturf Town]] Contest and battled {{an|May}} and her {{TP|May|Skitty}}. Timmy fought a great battle, but in the end, May was the winner of the Contest.
In ''[[AG062|Disguise Da Limit]]'', Timmy sneaked out of home with the help of his father and went on to compete in the Verdanturf Town [[Pokémon Contest]]. He performed well, earning himself a high score of 27.8 in the [[Appeal|Appeals Round]]. He later defeated "[[Jessie|Jesslana]]" and her {{TP|Jessie|Dustox}} and advanced onto the finals where he competed against {{an|May}}. His parents arrived at the [[Contest Hall]], with his mother particularly furious at Timmy. However, his mother had a change of heart after recalling her own past and went on to cheer for her son. Timmy fought a great battle, but in the end, May had the most points remaining and was announced as the winner of the Contest. AFterwards, his mother agreed to allow him to compete in future Contests, provided he kept up with his homework.


Timmy also had a cameo in ''[[AG122|Deceit and Assist]]'', watching May at the [[Hoenn Grand Festival]]. He appears to know {{an|Chaz}} as he was seen watching the [[Grand Festival]] with him.

===Character===
Timmy is a strong battler, using a barrage of attacks to take down opponents like [[Drew's Roselia]] and [[Jessie's Dustox]]. However his Phantom disguise provided him with the rigor and confidence to boldly challenge other {{pkmn|Trainer}}s. As his alter ego, Timmy created a lot of mystery as he would appear and vanish with a powerful wind with dark petals. Without his disguise, Timmy was initially a shy and anxious person.
In ''[[AG062|Disguise Da Limit]]'', his identity as Phantom was officially revealed to his mother and the [[Pokémon Contest]] crowd after his mask fell off. Though with his mother now supporting his ambitions, Timmy felt confident to continue becoming a [[Pokémon Coordinator]] without the masquerade.

In ''[[AG061|Disaster of Disguise]]'', Dusclops defeated [[Drew's Roselia]] in a battle, leading [[Drew]] to not register for the upcoming Verdanturf Contest. Timmy later challenged {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Pikachu}}, though the match was interrupted by the arrival of [[Mrs. Grimm|Timmy's mother]].
 
Timmy used Dusclops during the Verdanturf Contest. Its dazzling combination of Will-O-Wisp and Psychic amazed the panel of judges. Dusclops went on to win the Battle Round against [[Jessie's Dustox]] as the timer ran out. Timmy also used Dusclops to battle [[May's Skitty]]. Dusclops was dealing a lot of damage to Skitty, as May continued to use ineffective {{t|Normal}} attacks against the {{t|Ghost}} Pokémon. Skitty's {{m|Assist}} turned the round in May's favor, allowing her to counter Dusclops and its oncoming attacks. When the five minutes were up, May was announced the winner as she had the most points remaining.
