Archie (Japanese: アオギリ Aogiri) is the head of Team Aqua. He is the only character in the games to have the Trainer class Aqua Leader (Japanese: アクアだんリーダー Team Aqua Leader).
In the games
In Pokémon Ruby, Archie helps the player against Team Magma. He does not have an active role in the storyline and cannot be battled.
In Pokémon Sapphire, he first appears in the Oceanic Museum in Slateport City, trying to steal the Devon Goods from Captain Stern. Later, Team Aqua members steal a Meteorite from Professor Cozmo and try to turn Mt. Chimney into a lake. Then, after Shelly raids the Weather Institute, Archie steals the Red Orb from Mt. Pyre. Later, he and the Team Aqua members turn up in Slateport again as Captain Stern announces a discovery he has made about a seafloor cavern. Team Aqua promptly steals the Submarine Explorer 1 that Captain Stern has built and goes for the Seafloor Cavern to awaken Kyogre.
In Pokémon Emerald, he also appears in the Oceanic Museum in Slateport City as the player delivers the Devon Goods to Captain Stern, just like in Sapphire.
Then Archie tries to stop Team Magma at Meteor Falls and Mt. Chimney. Later in the game, he again steals both the Red Orb and the Submarine Explorer 1 and awakens Kyogre another time.

Quotes
Pokémon Ruby
Meteor Falls
- "Hold it right there, Team Magma! We, Team Aqua, won't allow you to get away with your misdeeds!"
- "Who might you be? ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Ah, so you are <player>. I am Archie. As the head of Team Aqua, I have dedicated myself to thwarting the dangerous plans of Team Magma. Why? Because Team Magma is a grave threat to us all. They have committed many destructive acts in their bid to expand the land. We, Team Aqua, love the sea above all! Team Magma is our sworn enemy!"
- "Yes, yes, we must! We've got to hurry. There's no telling what Team Magma will do at Mt. Chimney!"
- "<Player>, you should keep an eye out for Team Magma, too. Farewell!"
Mt. Chimney
- "Oh, <player>! Please, you must stop Team Magma for me! They're trying to make this volcano erupt by using the stolen Meteorite's power! It's all a part of their plans to expand the world's landmass!"
- "<player>! Please, you've got to stop Team Magma for me! Dealing with these three thugs is a lot, even for me!"
- After defeating Maxie
- "<player>! Thank you! With your help, we thwarted Team Magma's destructive plan! But... this victory doesn't mean the end of their evil plans. We will remain vigilant and keep up with our pursuit of Team Magma. <player>, we shall meet again!"
Seafloor Cavern
- "What have you wrought? Maxie... You've finally awoken Groudon, haven't you? What will happen to the world if this sunshine continues for all eternity? The world's seas will all dry up and disappear..."
- "We don't have the time to argue about it here! Get outside and see for yourself! See if what you've wrought is the world that you desired! <player>, come on, you have to get out of here, too!"
Route 128
- "Do you understand now, Maxie? Do you finally see how disastrous your dream turned out to be? We have to hurry! We have to do something before the situation goes completely out of control! <player>... We, Team Aqua, had been pursuing Team Magma to prevent this from happening. You've been very helpful, but I fear the worst has happened... It's gone too far for a child like you to manage... Leave things to us, and get out of here while you still can! This defies belief... A super-ancient Pokémon... Its power is unbelievable. It has upset the balance of nature..."
Pokémon Sapphire
Oceanic Museum
- "I came to see what was taking so long to snatch some parts, and you simps are held up by a mere child? I am Team Aqua's Archie. Tell me, why do you meddle in the noble affairs of Team Aqua? Pokémon, people, all life depends on the sea. So, Team Aqua is dedicated to the expansion of the sea. Don't you agree? What we are doing is a magnificent undertaking. Ah, fine... You're still too young. It can't be helped that you do not understand our ideals. But, if you ever oppose us again, there will be consequences! Heed my warning! Farewell!"
Mt. Chimney
- "The power contained in the Meteorite... By amplifying its power with this machine, Mt. Chimney's volcanic activity will stop. Fufufu... Eventually, the cooled-down crater will fill with rainwater, giving Water Pokémon a place to live."
- Before battle
- "You again... Now listen. All life depends on the sea. The sea is everything! Its importance is paramount! That is why we of Team Aqua are committed to expanding the sea. Doing so will result in the emergence of new Pokémon species. We will return the world back to nature for the good of Pokémon. That is Team Aqua's vision! I can't allow an ignorant child like you to get in our way. I, Archie, will show you the consequences of meddling!"
- Being defeated
- "What?! I, Archie, was caught off guard?"
- After being defeated
- "Ah, whatever. I will give up our plans for Mt. Chimney for the time being... But no one can ever stop us! Team Aqua will prevail! Don't you ever forget that!"
Mt. Pyre
- "Not you again... You've impeded our plans repeatedly, but this time you're too late. The Red Orb that rested atop Mt. Pyre... I, Archie, claim it as mine! Fufufu... Finally, I can realize my grand design... Come on, crew! It's Slateport next!"
Slateport Harbor
- "Fwahahaha... I commiserate with you! All that effort you spent following me here all the way from Mt. Pyre. But now... No one can stop us! No one! Or, will you follow us back to our Hideout in Lilycove City? Fwahahahaha..."
Seafloor Cavern
- "Hold it right there."
- Before battle
- "Fufufu. So it was you, after all. Behold! See how beautiful it is, the sleeping form of the ancient Pokémon Kyogre! I have waited so long for this day to come... It surprises me, how you've managed to chase me here. But that's all over now. For the realization of my dream, you must disappear now!"
- Being defeated
- "I... I lost again?''
- After being defeated
- "Fufufu... I commend you. I must recognize that you are truly gifted. But! I have this in my possession! With this Red Orb, I can make Kyogre..."
- "What?! I didn't do anything. Why did the Red Orb... Where did Kyogre go?"
- "Hm? It's a message from our members outside..."
- "Yes, what is it? Hm... It's raining heavily? Good... That should have happened. That is why we awakened Kyogre, to realize Team Aqua's vision of expanding the sea. What?! It's raining far harder than we envisioned? You're in danger? That can't be... That's just not possible... Hold your position and monitor the situation!"
- "There's something wrong... The Red Orb is supposed to awaken and control Kyogre... But... Why? Why did Kyogre disappear? Why?!"
- "What are you saying? The Red Orb should let me control Kyogre... That can't be possible..."
Route 128
- "What happened... What is this wretched scene... Did I...make a horrible mistake? I... I only wanted..."
Pokémon Emerald
Oceanic Museum
- "I came to see what was taking so long to snatch some parts, and you simps are held up by a mere child?"
- "We are Team Aqua, and we love the sea! And I am Team Aqua's leader, Archie! What makes you interfere with us? ...No! You can't be! You're not one of Team Magma? Wait, that can't be right. You're not dressed for the part. ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Pokémon, people... All life depends on the sea. So, Team Aqua is dedicated to the expansion of the sea. Don't you agree? What we are doing is a magnificent undertaking. Ah, fine... You're still too young to understand our noble objective. But, I warn you, don't even consider interfering with our plans again. The consequences will cost you dearly! And don't you forget it!"
Meteor Falls
- "Hold it right there, Team Magma! You're badly mistaken if you think you can have your way with the world!"
- "Didn't I see you before? At Slateport's Museum? Ah, so your name is <player>. At the time, I thought you were one of Team Magma's goons. Humph... You're one odd kid. Team Magma is a dangerous group of total fanatics. They engage in destruction, claiming to expand the land mass. They are rivals to us, the sea-loving Team Aqua!"
- "Yes, yes, we must! We've got to hurry. There's no telling what Team Magma will do at Mt. Chimney!"
- "<Player>, you should keep an eye out for Team Magma, too. Farewell!"
Mt. Chimney
- "Grr, <player>! I should've guessed you'd show up! See for yourself what the fanatics of Team Magma are up to! They're trying to inject the stolen Meteorite's power into the volcano! Doing something like that will cause the volcano's eruption!"
- "<Player>! Thank you! With your help, we thwarted Team Magma's destructive plan! But... You... Whose side are you on? Ah, it doesn't matter. We will remain vigilant and keep up our pursuit of Team Magma. <Player>, we shall meet again!"
Mt. Pyre
- "Team Magma's Maxie got ahead of us, but we also got what we wanted. The Red Orb preserved at Mt. Pyre... I, Archie, now have it in my possession! Fufufu... Now we can bring our ultimate objective to fruition! Okay, Team! We're pulling out!"
Slateport Harbor
- "Oh? Not you again... You are tenacious to track us here, that much I will give you. But now... No one can stop us! No one! Or, will you follow us back to our Hideout in Lilycove City? Fwahahahaha..."

That is why we awakened Kyogre, to realize Team Aqua's vision of expanding the sea. What?! It’s raining harder than we envisioned? You're in danger? That can't be... That's just not possible... Hold your position and monitor the situation!"
- "There's something wrong... The Red Orb is supposed to awaken and control Kyogre... But... Why? Why did Kyogre disappear? Why?!"
- "W-what?! Don't get all high and mighty with me! Wasn't it you, Team Magma, that infuriated Groudon? So long as I have this Red Orb, I should be able to control Kyogre... I should be able to control it..."

In the anime
Archie appeared in Gaining Groudon and The Scuffle of Legends. After Shelly, on Archie's orders, successfully released Kyogre from Team Magma's mobile sea base, Archie emerged from the sea with Team Aqua's submarine, and used the Red Orb to take control of Kyogre, having it destroy the base completely as Team Magma narrowly escaped. Later on Monsu Island, Archie presented Maxie and Team Magma with an ultimatum: either they would disband their team, or he would order Kyogre to destroy everything. When Team Rocket later invaded Team Aqua's submarine, trying to steal Kyogre, Archie initially assumed Team Magma being behind the activity, but Maxie claimed that they had no responsibility for the action.
When Team Rocket's unsuccessful stealing attempt caused Kyogre to be released into the ocean, Archie took flight with his personal miniature aircraft, and started controlling Kyogre from midair. Soon it turned out that the Orb was actually controlling him, as he was intending to sink the entire island into the ocean, despite manny of his own minions being still on it, too. When Lance tried to retrieve the Red Orb from Archie, he had Kyogre attack the Champion-level Trainer, and proved it to be very strong, easily countering Lance's Gyarados's Hyper Beam with its own. Suddenly, the Red Orb absorbed itself into Archie's body, bonding with him.
After Ash's Pikachu, possessed by the Blue Orb, had freed Groudon from Team Aqua's submarine, the two Legendary Pokémon started battling each other. Soon Lance understood that Groudon was trying to stop Kyogre from sinking the island into the sea, so Ash and his friends desided to help it to do so. Having Beautifly and Mudkip attack Archie's aircraft, May and Brock managed to distract Archie and Kyogre long enough for Groudon to fire a Solar Beam at the Sea Basin Pokémon, defeating it. The Red Orb then debonded with Archie, causing him to lose his conciousness and fall of his aircraft, only to be caught mid-fall by Lance's Dragonite. When Archie later woke up, he seemed to have forgotten everything, asking Shelly what had happened. He then united everyone else around to watch as the Orbs destroyed each other, freeing Kyogre and Groudon and allowing them to return to their natural habitats. It is unknown what happened to Archie or the rest of Team Aqua after this point.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
Archie is one of the devious villains of Hoenn. His identity is a secret, and he works as the head of Hoenn TV, which made him the boss of Gabby and Ty. Using his position as the master of the region's media, Archie was able to cover up Team Aqua's actions and air anti-Team Magma propaganda.
He ensures that Team Aqua's missions are carried out in top secret, and eliminates any evidence of their attacks. The only major feat they have accomplished is stealing the prototype engine for the Submarine Explorer 1; however, this was the only thing really essential to their plans. When Maxie obtained the Blue Orb, Amber's Volbeat stole it from them and gave it to him.
After Rayquaza interrupted the battle between Groudon and Kyogre, Archie and Maxie went insane and attempted to destroy those who interfered with their plans. Archie used his Tentacruel to pull Courtney into the Cave of Origin, suffocate Ruby and hold Winona hostage when Wallace tried to save Ruby. Archie stomped on Ruby's Feebas, Mimi, and mocked it for being weak and ugly. However, Ruby then shows he had a change of heart from when he thought the same about his Feebas' looks, but then realizes that it possesses inner beauty, and that will remain so regardless of whether its body withers away or not. Then, he pridefully attaches the Hyper Rank Beauty Contest Ribbon that Wallace kept for him since he drove Mimi away, and it then evolves into Milotic, the Pokémon he sought after. His new Milotic is then able to team up with the rest of Ruby and Sapphire's Pokémon to defeat the two evil leader's Pokémon, forcing them to escape on Wallace's air car, but they are thwarted by Ruby's Plusle and Sapphire's Minun.
In the Emerald arc, he was under an alias known as Guile Hideout, a masked man who was the main antagonist of the chapter.
Pokémon
The following are Archie's Pokémon in the Pokémon Adventures manga:

During the Kyogre and Groudon conflict, Archie sent out three more of them and all four them fought alongside Maxie's Camerupt against Sapphire's Chic and Ruby's Mumu, and lost.
One of them later returned in the Emerald arc, where it again lost against Red's Poli and was subdued.
Walrein's known moves are Ice Beam, Icy Wind, and Sheer Cold, and their Ability is Thick Fat.

Archie's Masquerain first appeared as a Surskit during the Emerald arc in which it was mostly used by him. This is shown as it was used in many later battles. Around the end, Surskit evolved into Masquerain during the final battle against the main characters and it went up against Gold's Polibo. After Archie disappeared, Masquerain did so as well.
Masquerain's only known move is Psybeam, and its Ability as a Surskit was Swift Swim.

Trivia
- Despite being the leader of Team Aqua, an organization with water-centric goals, none of his Pokémon in the games can learn a single Water-type move through level-up in Generation III.
- In fact, only one of his three Pokémon, Sharpedo, is a Water type itself.
- Some of Archie's lines in Pokémon Sapphire are the same as Maxie's lines in Pokémon Ruby.
- Archie's plans in the Emerald chapter of Pokémon Adventures are very similar to the plans of Butler in Jirachi: Wish Maker.
- Pokémon Sapphire contains some unused Trainer data for Archie. According to the data, he only has a level 17 Togetic on his team. He is also carrying two Super Potions. This information may indicate that Archie was originally planned to be encountered earlier in the game and was intended to appear with a drastically different sort of team.
