Charon appears solely in episode 12 of *Pokémon Generations*, "The Magma Stone," adapting elements from the *Pokémon Platinum* post-game with deviations. Depicted as a stocky older man with lavender hair, he wears the standard Team Galactic uniform, a lab coat, and red-tinted glasses.

Leading a remnant faction to Stark Mountain after Cyrus's disappearance, his objective is stealing the Magma Stone to awaken and control Heatran. Departing from his game counterpart's profit-driven motives, this version declares his actions seek "the glory of Team Galactic."

During the confrontation, Buck and Looker intervene. While Buck battles Heatran and returns the stone, Looker attempts an arrest. Charon escapes capture with aid from two Team Galactic Grunts. The episode does not explore his background, such as his scientific work with Rotom or status as a junior commander, and confines his role to this single appearance within the series.
