It is obvious to see that Andre is an anti-social teenage boy who claims he does not "get" anything about Pokemon, and rarely interacts with them. Lyra meets his mom and she describes Andre to Lyra as "a boy who prefers to be left alone, yet feeling lonely and wanting to interact with others" from there Lyra wanted to help Andre anyway possible. As they travel to Crown city Andre, Lyra and Shaymin are attacked by a mysterious crook, who is affiliated with a villainous group known as team Gamma who's goal are unknown. The crook was shown carrying around a snag machine which he used to snag Shaymin, Lyra confronts Andre due to him acting coldly to Shaymin's adduction but he later admits that he really does care for Shaymin and he goes with Tommy to capture the crook with Lyra staying behind to take Chikorita to a Pokemon center for being hurt from battle against a Salamence. Later Andre recovers Shaymin and before the three head back to Ulmus town Andre and Lyra spent some time with some of the Pokemon in the local area. Lyra and Andre returned back home where Andre begins to plan his adventure with Shaymin, Lyra asks to join him and he agrees happily.
