Victor appears in the Galar-focused animated episode as the male player character from Pokémon Sword and Shield. Alongside his rival Hop, he aids the region's Champion, Leon, against the legendary Pokémon Eternatus during the Darkest Day. In this battle, Victor commands his Inteleon to strike Eternatus with Snipe Shot.

Victor wields the Rusted Sword while Hop holds the Rusted Shield. Both artifacts float upwards, emitting beams that transform Zacian and Zamazenta into their Crowned Sword and Crowned Shield forms. After the legendary Pokémon weaken Eternatus, Victor captures it with a Poké Ball.

Following this event, Victor participates in the Champion Cup, challenging Leon for the title of Galar Champion. His journey began with Sobble as his starter Pokémon, which evolved into Inteleon.

In design, Victor possesses a darker skin tone than his default game artwork. He wears his signature red outfit during his battle against Leon.
