Plot

Keane debuted The Mightiest Ho-Oh with Chermaine attacking the Team Rocket Elite Trio. While doing so, his superior, the Masked Man, came and took the two executives away, telling them that he needed them to rebuild Team Rocket.

He appeared once more in Stop Snoring, Slowking. He faced Gold and Crystal alongside Chermaine as to buy time for the Masked Man to ge to Ho-Oh and for the rest of Team Rocket to get to the Indigo Plateau. Fortunately, they were swiftly beaten by the duo and haven't appeared yet to date, save several flashbacks and memories of Green and Silver's childhood captivity under the Masked Man.

Trivia

• His proper English name from Chuang Yi's Singaporean English Pokémon manga translations is Keane. However, Coronis, who is known of coining fan names for manga characters who lack American names, coined the name Cart based on his Japanese name. Some fans still refer to him this way.
