History
Ruby & Sapphire arc
Phoebe and the other Elite Four members were called by Steven to help protect the Hoenn region from the battle between Groudon and Kyogre. While the other Elite Four are tasked with attempting to open the chambers containing the Legendary Pokémon Regirock, Regice, and Registeel, Phoebe goes to meet with a blind boy that holds a slab that has the secret to awaken the three Pokémon.
After the slab is translated and Steven manages to awaken the Legendary Pokémon, Phoebe is tasked with controlling Regice alongside Glacia. The Elite Four, Steven, and Wallace all control the three legendary titans in three pairs of two and use their power to keep the power released from Groudon and Kyogre's battle from spreading throughout Hoenn. They manage to keep the power contained for several weeks, but the strain is too much for Steven and he eventually dies, causing the three Pokémon to lash out and flee. Phoebe later mourns Steven's death before his revival at the hands of Ruby's Celebi.
Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire arc
Phoebe, along with various people from around Hoenn, is called to Sootopolis City to assist in stopping Grand Meteor Delta, a giant meteoroid threatening to destroy the planet. When the plan to attack Grand Meteor Delta starts, Phoebe and the others have their Pokémon attack the meteoroid at the same time. This, combined with the might of Mega Rayquaza, successfully shatters Grand Meteor Delta into pieces.
Pokémon

Dusclops's only known move is Shadow Punch.
Temporary
- Main article: Brandon's Regice
Regice was awakened by Steven and the Elite Four to be used to contain Groudon and Kyogre's power. Phoebe controlled Regice with Glacia while the others controlled Regirock and Registeel. After Steven died from the strain of controlling the three Pokémon, Regice lashed out and ran away. It was later found by Brandon and captured.

Trivia
- Phoebe is the only Elite Four member not to have a Water-type in Pokémon Emerald, Omega Ruby, and Alpha Sapphire.
- Phoebe is the first notable Ghost-type specialist to have never been seen owning a Gengar.
- When calling Phoebe over the PokéNav in the English version of Pokémon Emerald, there is a grammatical error: "I'd like to see much tighter your bond has grown with your Pokémon."
