Mr. Verich has an alternate identity, [[Greevil]], head of [[Cipher]].  This makes him a parallel of the [[Pokémon Colosseum]] character [[Mayor Es Cade]], whom he may have either replaced or else was simply an underling under Verich's true leadership. His identity is only revealed once Michael defeats [[Gorigan]] at the [[Cipher Key Lair]], where he invites Michael to [[Citadark Isle]]. When Michael is about to confront him for the first time, he tries to escape by putting up a barrier.
 
When he has is confronted for a second time, he battles Michael with [[Shadow Lugia|XD001]] before sending out his own party of six Pokémon. After being defeated, [[Ardos]] almost convinces him to restart the [[Shadow Pokémon]] project, but [[Eldes]] intervenes. He addresses Verich as "Father", something Ardos picks up on. Ardos replies with "Don't call him Father! Call him the Grand Master!". Eldes ignores this and convinces Verich to give up. Verich surrenders the idea of Shadow Pokémon and lets the justice be given to him for what he has done.
