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 Ventus fight a huge swarm of Unversed, Phil decides to continuing training Hercules, since he decided to help Ventus first. However, Phil later confides in Ventus 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. | 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.

In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Phil began to lose faith in Hercules. Seeking a new hero, he later risked his life to participate in the battle with the Hydra. He continued to care for the hero until Sora's next return, Phil's dream later coming true. Due to incorrect attitudes, however, Phil remained his stubborn self and refused to award Sora and friends the "Hero" status. | In ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Phil began to lose faith in Hercules.

In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', he is shown to be a bit of a womanizer, a trait that is also shown in the movie ''Hercules''.

When asked by Hercules why he would offer to be Aqua's trainer while he had to practically beg, Phil response by saying because she has different "attributes" than him. | In ''Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep'', he is shown to be a bit of a womanizer, a trait that is also shown in the movie ''Hercules''.

Phil has a number of running gags surrounding him. One of them is that each time Sora and friends tried to talk with Phil when first arriving in the Coliseum, Phil mistakes them for Hercules and doesn't realize it until he turns around. Another recurring joke is that he will state a certain number of words, then say a phrase that goes one word over or under the number of words he stated. Another trait of his is not being able to keep his mouth shut when people are explaining things, such as when Roxas kept trying to explain that Phil mistook him for somebody else. | Phil has a number of running gags surrounding him.

Phil first appeared in the classic Disney animated comedy ''Hercules''. He is a composite of several characters from Greek mythology; while he shares his name with {{w|Philoctetes}}, a human who lit the funeral pyre of {{w|Heracles}} upon his death, his personality and satyr design are similar to those of the god {{w|Pan (god)|Pan}}, and his role as a trainer of heroes is shared with the centaur {{w|Chiron}}. | |||
In the film, the young Hercules was instructed to find Philoctetes, trainer of heroes, in order to become a true hero and rejoin his family on Olympus. He found Phil on a distant island spying on some nymphs, startled at first to see a satyr rather than what he mistook for a goat (Phil was spying on the imps through some bushes, his goat backside visible to Hercules). Herc displayed his strength to Phil, the satyr impressed, yet not willing to have his dreams crushed again. He told Hercules his dream of training the ultimate hero, and how every one he trained never went the distance. When Hercules said he could, and with a little persuasion from Zeus via striking him with a lightning bolt and frying him, Phil was finally persuaded. He then proceeded to put Hercules through tests and other training, later taking him on his first real missions as a hero. | |||
On one of these missions, Hercules met Megara, a girl who was held captive by a centaur named Nessus. While Hercules battled the monster, Phil made a flirting attempt, Meg's refusal of him making Phil extremely angry and jealous. Much later in the film when Phil caught Hercules and Meg on a date, and Meg talking to Hades after Hercules had left on Phil's order, it was Phil's attempt to reveal the truth to the hero that almost broke up their duo for good. Phil attempted to leave for home, a distressed Meg coming to him and telling the satyr that Hercules would die if he didn't come back to help. Phil returned to Hercules's side, later watching over Meg as she died, mourning her loss along with Pegasus and Hercules. | On one of these missions, Hercules met Megara, a girl who was held captive by a centaur named Nessus.
