Quotes

  • Before battle
"Please pardon my intrusion... Would I be correct to assume that this is the Looker Bureau and that you might be Master/Miss <player>? I am terribly sorry to intrude upon you, but I have a request. But before we discuss the reason for my visit today, would you allow me to verify your strength, Master/Miss <player>?"
Yes: "As expected, the confidence of a Champion is unshakable. Please allow me to begin the battle at once!"
No: "Oh? Does even a Champion need time to prepare? I shall wait here until you are ready. Please do hurry."
  • Being defeated
"I see..."
  • After being defeated
"Yes, as I suspected... Your abilities and strength are without peer, Master/Miss <player>. Even I, a former admin of Team Flare, had no chance against you. Please forgive me for testing you. I am a mere servant, sent here by order of my mistress. She told me to measure your skill, and to proceed only if I judged you to be able. Oh goodness! Look at the time! My mistress is not a patient woman! If she is made to wait too long, the consequences will be severe. Please, Master/Miss <player>! You must hurry to Hotel Richissime's Royal Suite at once!"

In the manga

Pokémon Adventures

In Pokémon Adventures, Chalmers is an active Team Flare Admin. In Connecting with Gardevoir, he attacked Gurkinn in order to obtain the secrets of Mega Evolution for his superiors. Although Chalmers defeated Gurkinn, he was soon defeated by Diantha, one of Gurkinn's students, and forced to run away. Later, Chalmers was seen locking Grace back into her cell at the Team Flare Secret HQ after her fifth attempt to escape had ended in a failure.

Later, Chalmers and a female Admin, along with Malva's Delphox, were seen overseeing the plan to tie the Pokémon captured from the Pokémon Village to the prototype Absorbers on Route 10 so that their life energy could be drained to re-fuel the ultimate weapon. The plan was interrupted by the arrival of Alexa, Viola, Clemont, Bonnie, and Yvette. All Team Flare members on the route were defeated, thus putting a stop to their plan.
