In the games
Dexter appears as the master of ceremonies and one of the Pokémon Super Contest Judges in Hearthome City, Sinnoh in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. He appears to be a kind man who genuinely enjoys his work, despite limited interaction with the player. His input appears to be somewhat more important in the Acting Competition than Keira's or Jordan's, as raising his Voltage to maximum gains the Pokémon's Coordinator eight points instead of five. Also, he sits in the center of the three judges and has a heart under his name.
His appearance looks somewhat different in the games to the manga. In the games, he appears as a somewhat tall man with a full head of white hair, wearing a bow-tie.
