Maxie engineered a variety of schemes revolving around awakening Groudon from its resting place in the Seafloor Cavern. After his men failed to steal the Devon Goods from the Slateport Museum, Maxie stepped in himself and left [[Brendan]]/[[May]], the young trainer whom had defeated his men, off with a warning. Afterwards his next plan involved manipulating [[Professor Cozmo]] and then stealing a Meteorite from Meteor Falls. | Maxie engineered a variety of schemes revolving around awakening Groudon from its resting place in the Seafloor Cavern.

Afterwards his next plan involved manipulating [[Professor Cozmo]] and then stealing a Meteorite from Meteor Falls. | ||
− | + | This meteorite was used to power a machine at the volcanic Mt. Chimney, which would cause the volcano to violently erupt and ultimately result in increasing the landmass. [[Archie]] and [[Team Aqua]] were opposed to this and attempted to battle him to prevent this, although it was ultimately Brendan/May who challenged and defeated Maxie. Maxie decided to give up on this plan and retreated, but assured his opponent that Team Magma would win in the end. Afterwards, he put the final steps of his plan to resurrect Groudon into motion; by stealing the Blue Orb from Mt. Pyre and then hijacking [[Captain Stern]]'s new Explorer 1 submarine from Slateport City. | |
Using the Explorer 1, Maxie entered the Seafloor Cavern where Groudon slept. He arrived at Groudon's resting place just after Brendan/May and then battled them once again, believing that they would have to "disappear" so that he could make his dream come true. He was defeated again, but the Blue Orb acted automatically in awakening Groudon, which then fled. Maxie found to his dismay that Groudon's power was out of his control even with the Blue Orb in his possession, and that Groudon's power was more harmful to the world than he had intended. Seeing the error of his ways, Maxie later returned the orb to Mt. Pyre. | Using the Explorer 1, Maxie entered the Seafloor Cavern where Groudon slept.

− | + | It is unknown if Maxie still sought to awaken Groudon in this game, but if so he did not actively pursue this goal. Instead, he focused on using Team Magma to foil [[Team Aqua]]'s plans to awaken [[Kyogre]]. He first showed up at Meteor Falls, bringing in Team Magma to prevent Team Aqua from stealing the Meteorite, but failing to do so. However, they were able to track Team Aqua to Mt. Chimney and battled them there in an attempt to prevent Team Aqua from draining Mt. Chimney with their weapon. Although Maxie was distracted by a group of grunts, Brendan/May arrived in time to defeat Archie for him. | |
− | + | Maxie showed up later on, after Archie had awakened Kyogre, to scold him for attempting to control its power. | |

Immediately after Archie awakened Kyogre with similar results, Maxie showed up with several Team Magma grunts to confront him at the Seafloor Cavern. He scolds Archie heavily for his mistakes, while admitting that he himself was guilty of a similar mistake. However, Maxie said that Groudon and Kyogre were his and Archie's responsibility, but also noted that the balance of nature had shifter and that there was little they could do. They both wound up in Sootopolis, where they observed the battle between Groudon and Kyogre in futility, and Maxie attempted to call out to Groudon asking for forgiveness. After [[Rayquaza]] broke up the fight, they noted how easily it had ended the fight and both left to return their orbs to Mt. Pyre. | Immediately after Archie awakened Kyogre with similar results, Maxie showed up with several Team Magma grunts to confront him at the Seafloor Cavern.

− | + | *Maxie appeared in the two episodes of the Pokémon anime's Hoenn season centered around the revivals of Groudon and Kyogre with a similar goal as in the games, although his role is considerably minor as he is never even shown using any Pokémon. He eventually saw the error of his ways by the end of the latter episode. | |
− | + | *Maxie appeared in the ''Ruby''/''Sapphire'' arc of the ''Pokémon Adventures'' manga, where he led Team Magma like a gang of barbarians. His team steals the Scanner and both orbs, although Team Aqua is able to steal the Blue Orb from them. They also stole the submarine, both as Team Aqua had the fuel, Maxie forced a meeting with Archie which led to them forming an alliance to reach the Seafloor Cavern together. After awakening Groudon and Kyogre, they are both possessed by the orbs and become insane even after being separated from them. Even after Groudon and Kyogre are driven away, they remain deranged and reclaim the orbs, then brutally attack [[Wallace]] and [[Winona]], as part of their new mission to destroy all potential threats until only the two of them would remain. However Ruby and Sapphire are able to defeat them and entrap them within Wallace's aircar, and Ruby's [[Celebi]] takes the orbs from them. In a chapter of the ''Emerald'' arc it is shown that Storc freed them from this and offered an armor that could save them from the potentially fatal after-effects of the orb's possession, but Archie won the armor in the ensuing battle with Maxie implied to have died either being directly killed by Archie or dying of withdrawal from the orb. | |
