He is well known for writing songs and singing as he regularly does so in [[Spikemuth]]. More often he tends to reveal his strategy to his opponents, yet he has the strength and skills to win regardless. Spikemuth is the only Gym in Galar not built over a Power Spot; previously, [[Chairman Rose]] had asked Piers to relocate his Gym to a faraway Power Spot, but Piers refused and opted to be the only Gym Leader not to use [[Dynamax]]. As a result, the town is rarely visited by fans, which Piers blames himself for letting his home fall into obscurity and dilapidation. He has been desperately trying to support the town with his {{type|Dark}} Pokémon but often gets frustrated with the limits of his strength<ref>https://swordshield.pokemon.com/en-us/people-galar-region/dark-type-gym-leader-piers/</ref>. | ||
In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Piers is the only Gym Leader absent from the Gym Challenge's opening ceremony in [[Motostoke]]. He makes his first appearance once the player clears the [[Spikemuth]] Gym Challenge, where it is revealed that the {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s are actually Spikemuth {{tc|Gym Trainer}}s in disguise, and that their leader is Piers. After the player defeats Piers, Marnie approaches him for her turn at the Gym Challenge. Their conversation reveals that Piers had previously planned to retire as Gym Leader after the [[Champion Cup]] ended and planned to pass down the role to his little sister. However, Marnie refused the offer, stating that she could not be a Gym Leader if she succeeds in becoming {{pkmn|Champion}}. | In {{g|Sword and Shield}}, Piers is the only Gym Leader absent from the Gym Challenge's opening ceremony in [[Motostoke]].
