In the anime
Only one Aqua Admin, Shelly, appeared in the anime. She made her debut along with Magma Admin Tabitha in A Three Team Scheme!, where she was mistakenly referred to as "Tactical Commander Isabel" in the English dub; this was corrected in subsequent episodes. She led a squad on a mission to Dewford Island to find the Cave of Origin. It was revealed that she was carrying the Red Orb (mistakenly referred to as the "Rose Orb" in the English dub) with her at the time, though it was never shown on-screen.
Shelly appeared several other times throughout Pokémon the Series: Ruby and Sapphire in command of Team Aqua Grunts: at Mt. Chimney in Fight for the Meteorite! and the Weather Institute in Unfair Weather Friends. Her final appearance was in Gaining Groudon and The Scuffle of Legends, where she freed Kyogre from Team Magma's ship and witnessed the battle between Kyogre and Groudon. Like the rest of Team Aqua, she is not seen again after these episodes.
In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
Ruby & Sapphire arc
Aqua Grunts Matt, Shelly, and Amber are promoted to Admin status by Archie in Stick This in Your Craw, Crawdaunt! I after they successfully steal the Devon Goods. They become the 'SSS trio' - "Subleaders of the Sea Scheme." Later, they work together to use energy from Professor Cozmo's meteorite to stop Mt. Chimney's activity, and though Sapphire defeats Matt, their plot is successful. They appear again in Always Keep Whiscash on You for Emergencies when Team Aqua and Team Magma briefly join forces to journey to the bottom of the sea. Archie takes Amber with him and nearly kills him in Very Vexing Volbeat by locking him and Magma Admin Tabitha inside the Submarine Explorer 1.
During the battle between Kyogre and Groudon, the SSS trio fights against some of the Hoenn Gym Leaders. Matt is ultimately defeated by Winona and Shelly by Flannery. Amber defeats Wattson, but also deliberately allows the Gym Leaders to find the location of the Team Aqua Hideout, suggesting that Archie's treatment of him has caused him to defect from Team Aqua. The fate of Matt and Shelly is not known.
Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire arc
Amber returns to Team Aqua's Lilycove Headquarters and unexpectedly encounters Blaise. The manga-exclusive counterparts eventually strike a deal to work together, and force Hoopa to summon Kyogre and Groudon, so that they would be able to trace their respective leaders' whereabouts. It is then revealed that "Matt" and "Shelly" were codenames for the game-based Aqua Admins; two new characters which resemble Matt and Shelly in Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire were introduced as co-operators with Zinnia.
