In his story, Dr. Crygor is in [[Dr. Crygor's Lab|his laboratory]], peering at a beaker filled with blue, effervescent liquid. He then dances around his lab, finishing off with a rose. Dr. Crygor then begins to sweat and reaches for a drink. He ends up grabbing the beaker. Upon drinking it, he suddenly comes down with stomach pains, then quickly runs for the restroom while shaking. Once finished, the toilet shoots an upward jet of water behind him, flooding his lab. The music played when this happens is the music that plays after a [[Switch (Wario Land 4)|switch]] is pressed in ''[[Wario Land 4]]''. Dr. Crygor attempts to swim away, but he is then sent rocketing into the sky. He tries to activate his jetpack, which fails, and he begins falling to the ground. Just as he is about to plummet, [[Don the Sparrow]] rescues Dr. Crygor and flies him to safety. After his stage is completed, Dr. Crygor can be seen with the rest of the WarioWare employees at the [[Gelateria]], where he air-swims across the building.

Dr. Crygor's microgames are themed after [[List of WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$! microgames#Reality|Reality]]; thus, they feature photorealistic graphics. The instrumental that plays throughout his stage is his theme, [[:File:WWMM CrygorTheme.oga|Dr. Crygor's Bathroom Jam]].

He also appears in the second half of the ending of Wario's second stage. While Wario is piloting his rocket, Dr. Crygor swims above the clouds. To both his and Wario's surprise, they collide with each other. The collision sends the rocket, the two, and the banknotes plunging to the sea near the harbor. In the roll credits featuring the ''WarioWare'' cast's names, voice clips of Dr. Crygor and the other WarioWare employees play off-screen. Once the credits finish, Dr. Crygor is shown being dragged by Wario as they paddle across the sea.

Dr. Crygor makes a short appearance in the opening cutscene of ''[[WarioWare: D.I.Y.]]''. In his laboratory (referred to as "Crygor Labs" by the game), he plays video games on his [[Wii]], using a controller akin to the Classic Controller. Suddenly, the game's characters start swarming out of the TV screen to attack him. He wakes up in his bed, with his nightmare inspiring him to build the [[Super MakerMatic 21]], a machine that can instantly create microgames, records, and four-page black-and-white comics.

Returning to his design from ''WarioWare Gold'', Dr. Crygor joins Wario  and the rest of the crew to [[Caresaway Island]] in ''[[WarioWare: Move It!]]''. On the cruise ship, Crygor is seen with Penny gawking in surprise at a seasick Mike.

Dr. Crygor's level, titled "A Curious Case of Cave Art", is shared by Penny and Mike. It utilizes the forms "Massage" and "Big Cheese". In the prologue, they explore the rock art of [[Underarm Jungle]], and discover art depicting a mysterious creature. Dr. Crygor believes that the drawing was inspired by an octopus. Dr. Crygor reveals his Time Obliterator 5.0, a stopwatch-like device, to transport them to the past in order to find out the source of the artwork. In the past, a caveman is seen engraving the art, using the creature as a reference. He discovers the three, and orders them to stand in order to draw them. In the epilogue, the caveman is finished and shows them the rock art, who are then amazed by it. Wario in the present-day notices the finished rock art of Dr. Crygor, Penny and Mike, confused.

Dr. Crygor also appears in Remix 1, where he helps Ashley with making a potion inside a vacation home. When he, Ashley, and Penny put the final touches on the potion, it causes an explosion which detaches the home from its foundation. The home is transported into a waterfall, which spills him, Ashley, Red, Lulu, Orbulon, Mike, Mona, and Penny onto the top of a jeepney. He also has his own extra stage, "[[Megagame Muscles]]", which is similar to [[Kelorometer]].

Later, at ''Sakebu Made in Wario'', a game in the form of a rollercoaster, Dr. Crygor, Mona, Dribble, and Spitz witness Wario, Luigi, and Yoshi on a moving capsule-shaped ride.

Soon, Dr. Crygor, Mona, and Wario celebrate the success of the rollercoaster park.
