Charon is first seen along with [[Mars]] at [[Valley Windworks]] to get energy from the windworks. During this encounter, it is revealed that he joined the team after Mars. It's also here where the {{player}} discovers that Charon is, in fact, one of the four [[Commander]]s, though the fact that he is the most junior among the Commanders' ranks is not revealed until the Stark Mountain sub quest. He made a minor appearance in the [[Team Galactic HQ]] in [[Veilstone City]] right next to [[Saturn]], where he was in front of the button to release the legendary Pokémon of the [[lake guardians]].

According to a journal in a secret room in the Eterna Galactic HQ, Charon discovered and named Rotom. When he was a child, Charon lost his toy robot. He spent hours looking for it to no avail. Suddenly a {{p|Rotom}} jumped out of his lawnmower and he was surprised to say the least. He named the Pokémon "Rotom", and soon Charon and the Pokémon became good friends. Charon always wanted to hug his new friend, but he couldn't for <!--Do not change this, the journal explicitly states it-->[[Electric (type)|obvious reasons]]. However, one day, Rotom got startled and zapped Charon, making him faint. When he awoke, Rotom was gone. Soon after, he found his toy robot in the garbage. When he picked it up, Charon realized that Rotom had entered his toy. He could then finally hug his new friend.

=== Notebook and Journal ===
====Notebook and Journal====
In {{game|Platinum}}, after obtaining the {{OBP|Secret Key|Generation IV}} to enter Rotom's Room in [[Team Galactic]]'s hideout in {{ci|Eterna}}, there are two books written by Charon: a notebook and a journal. A copy of the notebook is also present in a basement room of [[Silph Co.]] in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, where Rotom's forms may be accessed as well, indicating that, prior to his joining Team Galactic, Charon may have worked for Silph Co.

'''Team Galactic HQ'''
=====At [[Valley Windworks]]=====
''"My, my. Lose to a child, will you? But, no matter. We’ve collected plenty of electricity. With the power we obtained, we can do something quite spectacular. It seems quite obvious to me, Charon, the genius even the boss recognizes. Now, Mars, we should be going."''


:''"Fuhyahya! Those Pokémon of the lakes, where do you suppose they would go?"'' (to Saturn)
=====At [[Team Galactic HQ]]=====


:''"Nothing. Pay it no heed. A new world isn't overly interesting. What of it? If Cyrus is right, then Team Galactic will rule that new world. That's when it will be interesting. A chance to enjoy its sweets. I surely hope that our visionary Cyrus realizes his dream. I look forward to whatever our beloved leader has planned atop Mt. Coronet."'' (to Saturn)
''"Fuhyahya! Those Pokémon of the lakes, where do you suppose they would go?"''


:''"Humph. Saturn and even Cyrus fall to a mere child... Team Galactic's state of affairs is worrying... That plan of Cyrus's atop Mt. Coronet, too... Who knows if it will work. ...Hmm. Perhaps another option needs to be considered. One befitting the genius of Charon!"''

'''Stark Mountain'''

:''"Sigh... So impressionable and impetuous. What do they see in Cyrus? Immature, overthinking buffoon. He goes through the trouble of assembling Team Galactic for what? Ultimately, he destroys his own creation for his ludicrous vision. It's no thanks to him that I have to struggle with the pieces."''

:''"...But that's fine. The young can live with their dreams. I prefer to remain firmly in reality. And for that, money is paramount. You there, child. I'm not dealing with you. After all, the other Galactic members who did all suffered consequences. We'll be off to collect the Magma Stone. It's all for the money!"''

:''"...Cyrus disappeared. Mars and Jupiter quit. Saturn said he would look after what remains of Team Galactic. But he won't join me. So foolish of him! So very foolish of the rest of them! Throwing away Team Galactic! After all the effort we took as a team to make it grow... That power could have made us rich beyond imagination. But, enough of that. The Magma Stone will be mine."''

:''"Eh? What's this, then? Chased me here, have you? I like seeing children try their best, but too bad for you — you're too late. With this Magma Stone, I will awaken the legendary Heatran! I will control the volcano's eruptions to extort money by the millions! Fear me! For I am Charon! The boss of the reborn Team Galactic!"''

''"No! The Magma Stone! What?! What is going on?!"''
