In A Faux Oak Finish!, he was shown to have traveled all the way from Pallet Town in order to give a lecture on "the interrelation of Pokémon and Evolution stones" on the first day of the festival. However, people began filling the Twinleaf Auditorium to capacity and Professor Oak had yet to arrive.

Meanwhile at the Twinleaf Auditorium, James disguised himself as Professor Oak as part of a scheme to steal the Pokémon belonging to the attendees. Once the car was repaired and Professor Oak arrived at the auditorium, a confusion ensued involving the real Professor Oak and the faux one.
