Marcus, who once was Damos's assistant, had come to resent {{an|Arceus}} | Marcus, who once was Damos's assistant, had come to resent {{an|Arceus}} due to his belief that it would allow [[Michina Town]] to return to being a wasteland if the [[Jewel of Life]] was reclaimed. This led Marcus to become the driving force behind [[Damos]]'s apparent betrayal of it. By using his {{p|Bronzong}}'s {{m|Hypnosis}}, he was able to control Damos and force him to destroy Arceus while not returning the [[Jewel of Life]]. However during the original turn of events, he had fallen to his death along with Damos after Arceus survived the attack and counterattacked. | ||
After meeting up with [[Sheena]], who had traveled to the past to stop Damos's apparent betrayal of Arceus, he learned how the future would have turned out as well as his own death. He then changed his plans to include silver water as well while attacking Arceus. This proved to be very effective and left the Alpha Pokemon helpless as the overall assault immobilized it. However, Sheena and Damos were able to communicate with the hearts of all the Pokémon, including {{p|Bronzong}} and {{p|Heatran}}, making them turn against Marcus, and Ash was able to make him give up the Jewel of Life by wrestling with him until he dropped it. As Ash caught the jewel and rushed with his Pikachu to return it to Arceus, Dawn, her Piplup, and another group consisting of a Chikorita, a Cyndaquil, a Totodile, and multiple Rattata, cornered Marcus, preventing him from following. | After meeting up with [[Sheena]], who had traveled to the past to stop Damos's apparent betrayal of Arceus, he learned how the future would have turned out as well as his own death.
