Petrel is apparently Team Rocket's master of disguise. He is first seen dressing as [[Giovanni]] and then battled in the [[Team Rocket HQ]]. In [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] he appears again, using his disguise skills again, this time dressed as Radio Tower Director.

In [[Goldenrod Radio Tower]] he appears again, using his disguise skills again, this time dressed as Radio Tower Director.


Petrel's motives on Team Rocket are more mild-mannered, as he freely gives out information such as passwords and the location of the director. He even considers himself a "nice guy" and hands over the key. In fact, it his giving out of this information that leads to many of Team Rocket's defeats, despite his opinion that the Player can't use the information anyways.

Petrel has existed since {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. However, his existence was easy to miss because all Rocket Executives used the same sprite (which showed [[Archer]]'s canonical design), making it seem like there was only one Executive. Petrel stayed without a canonical design until {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. His name was also revealed in those games (as well as with the other three Executives). The same situation occurred in the case of [[Proton]].
Petrel's position has existed since {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}. However, his existence was easy to miss because all Rocket Executives used the same sprite (now adopted as [[Archer]]'s canonical design), making it seem to some like there was only one Executive. The Rocket Executive (as well as the Grunt) Proton is based on was then given a canonical design and an official name in HeartGold and SoulSilver, along with the other three Executives, to distinguish them as individuals. [[Proton]]'s case is the same.
