Mr. Verich

Mr. Verich (Japanese: メチャリッチ Mecharich) is a character in Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness.

In the games

Mr. Verich first appears at Gateon Port, where he stops a thug named Zook from beating up Michael's sister, Jovi. He also provides free food and drink to the patrons of The Krabby Club, a bar in Gateon Port. However, for most of the game, Mr. Verich's purpose is unknown, and his existence is hardly referenced to at all. Right before Michael goes to Citadark Isle, Mr. Verich leaves Gateon Port, much to the dismay of the Gateon Port residents.
