Mayor Es Cade

Es Cade (Japanese: バックレー Backley) is the mayor of Phenac City in Pokémon Colosseum. A fat and jolly gentleman, he appears to be worried about the increase in crime caused by Cipher and Team Snagem. He seems to be easily flustered and incompetent.

In the games
When Wes and Rui first visit Phenac City, members of Cipher surround the city. One of them, Nascour, is seen leaving Es Cade's house. Wes and Rui chase away the Cipher operatives from Phenac City, and Es Cade promises to investigate Cipher in return.

However, Es Cade doesn't seem to actually be doing anything in regards to the crisis in Orre. After Venus is defeated, he is unable to be found. A woman explains that Es Cade left the city office in a rage.
