Vander
Vander is an Area Leader of Mount Battle that appears in Pokémon Colosseum. He is the first Area Leader. He leads Area 1 of Mount Battle, residing in Zone 10.
Wes first meets him at Mount Battle after it is attacked by Cipher. The Cipher Admin Dakim and his troops took over the first ten zones of Mount Battle. Dakim occupied the tenth zone and was attempting to persuade Vander to hand over his Time Flute. The flute posed a threat to Cipher's Shadow Pokémon plan and thus Dakim was sent to obtain it.
Vander refused to hand it over and after failing to verbally persuade him, the musuclar Dakim attempted to do so physically, punching Vander to the ground. It was at this point that Wes intervened and the two battled. Wes was victorious and snagged Dakim's Shadow Entei in the process. Dakim and his subordinates fled.
At this point, Cipher's prediction came true and the Time Flute became a threat when Vander handed it over to Wes in gratitude for saving him. Vander himself said that he stumbled upon the Time Flute by chance one day while he was training.
Later, Wes can return to Mount Battle and make his way through Zone 1 once more to challenge Vander. He seems to be a Normal-type specialist. Being the first Area Leader, he naturally has lower-leveled Pokémon, though that may be simply because of his job and not a result of being unskilled as a trainer.
