Halsey is the captain of the Pokémon Gulf Coast Relief Corps which operates out of Pokéwood. Saving the lives of humans or Pokémon in a dangerous situation is what's most important to him. He has a truly life-threatening job but that's why he and his Pokémon works well together as a team. He is very understanding of his Pokémon and tries to take each of his team members suggestions into consideration before making the final decisions as Captain of the Pokémon Gulf Coast Relief Corps. His Pokémon all respect him greatly because of his ideals and attitude of helping others.
While on a training exercise,
Halsey met
Ash Ketchum and his friends as well as
N.
N and
Halsey didn't get along too well at first as
N didn't like the fact that
Halsey was placing his Pokémon in danger to save humans.
Halsey pointed out to him though that there are times when Pokémon save humans but there are also times when it's the other way around and humans save Pokémon.
Halsey further explained to
N that its important to not differentiate whether it's a human or a Pokémon when they are going to a rescue. After spending time with
Halsey's Pokémon,
N could tell that they weren't being coerced into helping others and that they genuinely wanted to help others. Realizing that,
N seemed to respect
Halsey a bit more.
After being trapped in the basement of complex,
Halsey realized that he needed to bring out his Pokémon power more effectively and make use of them in their rescue operations.
N and
Iris showed him that the more they cooperate, the better their rescues could be. He thanked them for getting rescued and continued the training with his Pokémon.
