Phil is training Hercules to become a hero. He makes a brief appearances when [[Terra]] arrives, calling Hercules to sign up for the games. After [[Zack]] repeatedly asks him to train him and Phil sees him fight with Hercules and [[Ventus]], Phil tells them to enter in the games, and that he will watch how they do and decide from that.  After Hercules and Zack both withdraw from the tournament to help Ven fight a huge swarm of Unversed, Phil decides to continuing training Hercules, since he decided to help Ven first. However, Phil later confides in Ven that he had no intention of training Zack; Hercules had just been slacking and Phil had used Zack as a way to get him to work harder.

When [[Aqua]] first arrives at the Olympus Coliseum, Phil comes to Aqua's "rescue" when she was attacked by the Unversed, only to be scared off by them and called Hercules to fight them with Aqua. After the Unversed are defeated, he flirts with Aqua, but becomes disappointed to hear her concern for Terra after Hercules mentioned Terra, and mistakes her for a "Terra fan." He convinced Aqua to sign up for the games, saying there might be a chance that Terra would be in the games and even offered to sign her up for the games, as well as to be her trainer, but she politely refused. After Aqua realized that Terra might not be in the games, Phil tried to convinced her to stay, noting that his last two athletes (Hercules and Zack) defaulted and lost their matches. In the end, Aqua decides to stay and finish the games.

Phil is the coordinator of the games at Olympus Coliseum. He asks [[Sora]] to move a rock, thinking that he is [[Hercules]]. When Sora says he can't do it, Phil realizes it's not Hercules. He rejects Sora from participating in the games because he is not a true hero. This leads to a minigame that has Sora destroying barrels. Phil still rejects Sora from entering the games and tells him to go master a certain [[Thunder|spell]]. When Sora leaves, he attains a pass from [[Hades]]. Phil grudgingly allows him in the games and teaches them as the games go on until the fight with [[Cloud]]. Regardless of whether Sora wins or loses, [[Cerberus]] shows up and attacks. Phil tells Sora, Donald, and Goofy to run for it. After Hercules shows up to fight Cerberus and rescue Cloud, Phil worries about him and warns Sora when he enters the stadium to help. After the battle, Phil makes them junior heroes and from then allows Sora to compete in the games.

Phil runs the games in the fake version of Olympus Coliseum in [[Castle Oblivion]]. This time around, he makes it more into a race than an actual battle. He also gives the rules for competing.

Phil trains [[Roxas]] for the Coliseum games, thinking he is the hero that Hercules mentioned when Roxas went on his mission with [[Xigbar]]. Roxas was often teamed with Demyx in this world, and battled against Xigbar in the final round of the games before a [[Guard Armor]] Heartless interrupted the match. Phil eventually realized that Roxas wasn't the hero Hercules had told him about, much to his dismay. However, Phil wasn't mad at Roxas and told him to come by to the Coliseum anytime he wanted to the next time they met.

Phil is once again preparing games for the [[Olympus Coliseum]] and tournaments for [[Hercules]] so he can wow the crowd. Phil again demands that Sora endure training, where he must destroy urns. Phil leaves right before the Olympus Stone is said to be stolen. Sora later finds him in the Underworld, incapacitated by [[Demyx]]. He says he was looking for a new hero to have fight in the Coliseum since Hercules is slowing down. When the [[Hydra]] destroys the Coliseum, Phil is there to help Sora defeat it.

When Sora visits again later, Phil is seen cheering Hercules on against [[Auron]]. Before Sora and co. depart from the world, [[Donald Duck|Donald]] asks Phil if they can become heroes. Phil avoids the subject until stars in the sky form the images of Sora's group and Phil tries to hide his tears. This is most likely a sign from [[Zeus]].

He is shown talking to [[Data-Sora]] in the lobby of the Coliseum that he has trouble finding Hercules. After Data-Sora heals the Coliseum, he will trade a Power Chain for an Energy Bangle++.

Phil and Megera fly onto Pegasus to meet up with Hercules when Thebes is being attacked by Heartless. He and Megera scour the sky of Thebes for any person left behind during the attack.
