Concurrent with his directorial duties, he also provided voices for a multitude of characters in the franchise. He was the first voice of the Narrator and the Pokédex for many years. His role as the voice director for Pokémon concluded after the eleventh season, though he has occasionally returned to voice minor characters in later series.

Notable film roles include the narrator in several early movies, the voice of Darkrai in Pokémon: L'ascension de Darkrai, and Giovanni in the later film Mewtwo contre-attaque – Évolution.

His voice acting career extends to other notable anime and animated series. He voiced Genya Tachibana in the French dub of the acclaimed film Millennium Actress. He played the role of Haido in the second Naruto film, Naruto the Movie: Legend of the Stone of Gelel. In the OVA series Blood Reign: Curse of the Yoma, he is credited with the role of Valet Ninja Takeda, among other voices. Other anime credits include roles in Kirby: Right Back at Ya!
