===Quotes===
* Before battle
:''"Please pardon my intrusion... Would I be correct to assume that this is the Looker Bureau and that you might be {{tt|Master|If the player is male}}/{{tt|Miss|If the player is female}} <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, {{tt|Master|If the player is male}}/{{tt|Miss|If the player is female}} <player>?"''
::'''Yes''': ''"As expected, the confidence of a {{pkmn|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, {{tt|Master|If the player is male}}/{{tt|Miss|If the player is female}} <player>. Even I, a former {{tc|Team Flare Admin|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 [[Malva|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, {{tt|Master|If the player is male}}/{{tt|Miss|If the player is female}} <player>! You must hurry to [[Hotel Richissime]]'s Royal Suite at once!"''

===Pokémon Adventures===
In [[Pokémon Adventures]], Chalmers is an active {{tc|Team Flare Admin}}. In ''[[PS568|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 {{kal|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 {{rt|10|Kalos}} so that their [[Death in the Pokémon world#Life-force|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.
