He is one of the [[Frontier Brain]]s of the [[Battle Castle]] in the [[Sinnoh]] and [[Johto]] regions. Darach is the host and caretaker of the Battle Castle, managing CP awarded to or spent by Trainers under the orders of [[Caitlin|Lady Caitlin]]. As [[Caitlin]]'s butler, not only does he manage the Battle Castle but he also battles for her in her place and acts as the Frontier Brain of the facility. Darach will challenge the {{player}} on their 21st consecutive battle and award a Silver Print if defeated. He will battle the player again if the player reaches the 49th battle, this time handing out the Gold Print if defeated.
