Looker debuted in ''[[DP130|Frozen on Their Tracks]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} met Looker while taking a train leading to [[Lake Acuity]], and decided to help him distribute lunch boxes as he has bought too many of them. He decided to investigate the reason behind the signal which caused the train to stop and discovered it was the doing of [[Team Galactic]].

After a long absence, Looker finally appeared again in ''[[BW112|Team Plasma's Pokémon Power Plot!]]''. He had originally disguised himself as a {{tc|Hiker}}, but revealed his true identity after saving Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} from a group of attacking Pokémon, including {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}}. He explained that he had come to [[Unova]] in order to investigate the actions of [[Team Plasma]], who were planning to take over the region. After an encounter with several Team Plasma members, including the Plasma Scientist [[Colress]], he left the group to continue his investigation.

Looker appeared again in ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', again investigating actions caused by Team Plasma. Ash and friends encountered him in a city, where a {{p|Haxorus}} was going on a rampage. Looker realized that it must be under the same kind of control as the Pokémon from before, and attempted to use his barrier-creating device to stop Haxorus from being controlled, without any result. He then used an energy indicator to find the source of the energy that controlled Haxorus, eventually pinpointing it into Team Plasma's helicopter. When a missed {{m|Shadow Ball}} from [[Aldith]]'s {{p|Liepard}} hit the machine, it was broken, freeing the controlled Pokémon.

He also appeared in ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]'' and ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', where he wound up getting caught along with Iris, Cilan, and Cedric Juniper, but they later freed Looker. He then managed to convince Team Rocket into joining the battle. Eventually, when {{p|Reshiram}} was freed from Team Plasma's control, Looker arrested all the Team Plasma members, effectively putting an end to the team's existence.

====Character====
In the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, Looker built an alliance with {{TRT}} while trying to take down Team Galactic. [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}} referred to him as '''Boxed-Lunch Guy''' (Japanese: '''ランチボックスさん''' ''Mr. Lunchbox'') because he gave them boxed lunches while on the Ampharos Train. That simple act left them extremely loyal to him. In the {{series|Best Wishes}}, this relationship was shown to have carried on, as seen in ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', where he managed to convince them into joining the final battle against Team Plasma.
