Archie's was a Pokémon trainer who wished to expand the world's oceans, due to the importance of water in sustaining life and how aquatic Pokémon could be endangered by humanity's actions. His motives were expanded upon in ''Omega Sapphire'', as he believed that the world had grown too disordered, and that by restoring the world to a pristine state by flooding it, life could then have a fresh start. | Archie's was a Pokémon trainer who wished to expand the world's oceans, due to the importance of water in sustaining life and how aquatic Pokémon could be endangered by humanity's actions.

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

Archie engineered a variety of schemes revolving around awakening Kyogre from its resting place in the Seafloor Cavern. After his men failed to steal the Devon Goods from the Slateport Museum, Archie 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. | Archie engineered a variety of schemes revolving around awakening Kyogre from its resting place in the Seafloor Cavern.

− | + | This meteorite was used to power a machine at the volcanic Mt. Chimney, which would drain the volcano so that it could ultimately become a new habitat for water Pokémon after it was filled with rainwater. [[Maxie]] and [[Team Magma]] were opposed to this and attempted to battle him to prevent this, although it was ultimately Brendan/May who challenged and defeated Archie. Archie decided to give up on this plan and retreated, but assured his opponent that Team Aqua would win in the end. Afterwards, he put the final steps of his plan to resurrect Kyogre into motion; by stealing the Red Orb from Mt. Pyre and then hijacking [[Captain Stern]]'s new Explorer 1 submarine from Slateport City. | |
Using the Explorer 1, Archie entered the Seafloor Cavern where Kyogre slept. He arrived at Kyogre'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 Red Orb acted automatically in awakening Kyogre, which then fled. Archie found to his dismay that Kyogre's power was out of his control even with the Red Orb in his possession, and that Kyogre's power was more harmful to the world than he had intended. Seeing the error of his ways, Archie later returned the orb to Mt. Pyre. | Using the Explorer 1, Archie entered the Seafloor Cavern where Kyogre slept.

His goal was not just to awaken Kyogre, but to enhance its power through the process known as Primal Reversion. His actions at Mt. Chimney were changed into being an attempt to change the stolen meteorite into a Mega Stone, but he gave the meteorite to Brendan/May after hearing word of the Blue Orb. On that note, he also successfully stole the Blue Orb instead of the Red Orb, which turned out to be the key to achieving Primal Reversion. Archie also played more of a role in helping to prepare Brendan/May to fight Primal Kyogre and approved of Shelly giving them the Aqua Suit for that purpose. After the incident was resolved, Maxie reached out to Archie about working together to try to make a better world, but Archie felt unsure about it because he still believed in the world that he dreamed of making. Still, he advised Brendan/May about using the Red Orb to help control Kyogre. |

In the aftermath of the Delta Episode's events, he admitted that what he did was unforgivable and decided to turn over a new leaf. He saw the futility of getting wrapped up in his own beliefs, so he decided that Team Aqua would take a step into the unknown and work with different people from then on. |

He specifically pulled them from worlds in which they were successful in their goals. So, this version of Archie had successfully summoned Kyogre and was in the process of using its power to expand the world's oceans when he was swallowed by a tidal wave and pulled across dimensions. Unware of Giovanni's role in his situation, he was grateful to work under him while figuring out a way back home and respected the Rainbow Rocket Grunts under his command as if they were his own crew. He also considered using Kyogre to repeat his plan in this world as well. |
He and Maxie were the first bosses who could be faced within the castle. He was defeated by [[Sun/Moon]] and was impressed to have been beaten by someone so young. He then gave them some advice on how to proceed in the castle and was left wondering if he would have been able to pull off his plan back home if his world had a trainer like them. Later on, Archie ran into Maxie and argued with him. Each of them remembered defeating the other in his own world, and they decided to have a battle to decided who would take over the [[Alola Islands]]. But before this battle could commence, they both vanished as [[Colress]] had them sent back to their original worlds. | He and Maxie were the first bosses who could be faced within the castle.

− | *In the | + | *In the Pokémon anime, Team Aqua appeared throughout the episodes of the Pokémon anime set in Hoenn, although Archie himself did not appear until the two-part episode featuring Kyogre and Groudon's battle. Archie was successful in claiming the Red Orb and using it to control Kyogre, but it corrupted and eventually merged with Archie, causing him to seek the flooding of everything without regard for anyone, including his own men. However, after Kyogre is defeated by Groudon the orb was ejected from Archie's body and he was knocked out, being awakened by [[Shelly]] with no recollection of what had happened when he was under the orb's influence. |

In the ''Ruby''/''Sapphire'' arc he is head of Hoenn TV in addition to secretly leading Team Aqua, and he uses this position to hide Team Aqua's activities from the public while making Team Magma infamous and feared. They only succeed in stealing the prototype submarine engine and the Blue Orb from Maxie. However, as Maxie steals the entire submarine the two later form an alliance to enter the Seafloor Cavern together and then have Groudon and Kyogre battle each other to decide which is truly better. Even though Kyogre and Groudon were ultimately driven off by Raquaza and they were separated from their orbs, the two had been corrupted by the orbs to the point of insanity, at which point they teamed up together to begin eliminating all potential threats to them. However, they were ultimately defeated by Ruby and Sapphire, then sealed within [[Wallace]]'s aircar. It was later shown that Sird freed them and offered a special armor to one of them that would possibly allow them to survive the potentially fatal after-effects of being possessed by the orbs. Archie won the armor (implied to have resulted in Maxie's death) and used it to operate as Guile Hideout, the mysterious villain of the ''Emerald'' saga, hunting [[Jirachi]] and using one of its wishes to fashion a fake Kyogre. However, all of the Pokédex trainers team up together to destroy it, and Archie loses his armor in the battle. Afterwards he rejects Emerald's help and attempts to find his armor so he could make another Kyogre with Jirachi's last wish, but he finds [[Gold]]'s fake armor instead and disappears in a brilliant explosion when he reaches for the real armor. Archie and Maxie returned in the ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire'' arc, where they reformed their groups and awakened Groudon and Kyogre's Primal Forms. However, it ultimately turned out that they were brought back to life by a mysterious power and carried out their actions to help destroy Grand Meteor Delta. Following its destruction, their bodies disappeared, and they entrusted their subordinates with the world's protection. |
