Cedric debuted at the end of ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]'', where he stumbled out of [[Chargestone Cave]] and fainted out of hunger. In [[BW064|the next episode]], [[Professor Juniper|his daughter]] gave him some food to eat and he regained his strength. She also returned his pen which she found lodged in a {{p|Klinklang}}'s gears in the previous episode. Professor Juniper told {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} that her father studied the origins of legendary Pokémon like {{p|Reshiram}} and {{p|Zekrom}}. He then said that he believed he had discovered [[Hero's Ruin|the cave where]] the Black Hero had met Zekrom. He was planning to go back and Ash begged if he and his friends could come along. He agreed and led the way to the ruins. | |||
[[File:Cedric and Juniper.png|thumb|left|250px|Cedric and Professor Juniper]] | |||
When the group came upon the "Golden [[Dark Stone]]", in the center of the ruins, Cedric told Ash that it must be kept in place. However, the excitement of the situation overcame the professor and he took the stone while the others weren't looking. Because of this, they were driven to the deepest part of the ruins by {{p|Cofagrigus}} which was just what he had hoped for. He discovered that it was the bottom of the ruins where the Black Hero had communicated with Zekrom. Cedric later found the exit to the cave and put the Golden Dark Stone back in its place. | |||
Cofagrigus and {{p|Sigilyph}} were still angry about the Golden Dark Stone being taken, however. As a result, Cofagrigus sent him, Ash, {{an|Iris}}, and {{an|Cilan}} high in the air with {{m|Telekinesis}} before letting them go to plummet to the ground. The professor said that if they were able to link their hearts to the Pokémon, they would be saved and he was correct. He later discovered that all the paths they took in the ruins came out in the shape of a Zekrom, which confirmed that they were indeed the ruins of the Black Hero. After the group left the ruins, Cedric said that he would stay behind and continue to do his research in the area and the group said their goodbyes to him. | |||
In ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'', Cedric made a call to his daughter, who was visited by Ash, Iris and Cilan. He told them that he had made some interesting discoveries about the White Ruins near [[Icirrus City]], to which Ash and his friends decided they would go and visit him and hear about his research. | |||
In ''[[BW117|Team Plasma's Pokémon Manipulation!]]'', Cedric was seen excavating at the White Ruins, unaware that he was being watched by a couple of {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s. | |||
In ''[[BW120|Ash and N: A Clash of Ideals!]]'', ''[[BW121|Team Plasma and the Awakening Ceremony!]]'', and ''[[BW122|What Lies Beyond Truth and Ideals!]]'', Cedric witnessed the climax of [[Team Plasma]]'s plot to summon and take control of {{an|Reshiram}}.

Cedric has a tendency to pause in the middle of his sentences, which led to some miscommunication between him and the kids. For instance, when Ash asked to go with him to the ruins, he responded with "I never...", which led everyone into saying that he declined the offer. After that, he continued his sentence with: "...refuse bright young folks". This later caused problems avoiding the traps inside the ruins. He also enjoyed withholding information from the kids so that the experience could be more adventurous for them. | |||

Cedric Juniper | ====={{MangaArc|Black & White}}===== | ||
{{ | Cedric Juniper is a Pokémon researcher and the father of [[Professor Juniper]]. He first appeared in ''[[PS463|A Nickname for Tepig]]'' during a flashback of {{adv|Black}}, {{adv|Cheren}}, and {{adv|Bianca}}'s childhood. The children watched an interview Cedric had with a reporter where they discussed the creation of a new [[Pokédex]]. | ||
In ''[[PS480|At Liberty on Liberty Garden]]'', Cedric arrived at Professor Juniper's lab to assist her in repairing two damaged Pokédexes meant for Cheren and Bianca. By ''[[PS501|A Lost Melody]]'', the Pokédexes were fixed. Cedric was sent to [[Castelia City]], where he met with Bianca. To Professor Juniper's surprise, Bianca revealed she had chosen to give up on her Pokémon journey and become her assistant instead. When asked about the Pokédex, Bianca decided to give it to {{adv|White}}. | |||
In ''[[PS506|A Week to Go and Old Wounds]]'', Cedric encountered Black and [[Iris]] at {{rt|6|Unova}}. There, he told them about the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Cobalion}}, {{p|Virizion}}, and {{p|Terrakion}} and their distrust of humans. With the information he learned, Black was able to track down the {{adv|Swords of Justice}} and rescue a group of Pokémon they took from their Trainers. | |||
In ''[[PS509|Will the Truth Come Out?]]'', Cedric appeared to demand that {{adv|N}} reveal the whereabouts of the [[Gym Leader]]s Team Plasma had kidnapped. He, Black, and White teamed up to battle N. During the battle, Cedric revealed that a year ago, N broke into his lab and stole three first partner Pokémon he prepared for new Trainers. While the {{p|Snivy}} went with N and the {{p|Tepig}} was found by White, the {{p|Oshawott}} chose to stay with him, eventually evolving into a {{p|Samurott}}. Though the battle ended in N's defeat, he managed to flee without revealing anything. As N left, his Pokémon forcibly took the third Pokédex meant for Cheren and destroyed it. | |||
In ''[[PS520|Cold Hard Truth]]'', Team Plasma launched their attack on the {{un|Pokémon League}}, surrounding the area with [[N's Castle]]. During Black's final battle against N he was assisted by Cedric, {{adv|Looker}}, and [[Leo]], who attempted to attack N's {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Zekrom}}. When their attacks failed, Cedric upgraded Black's Pokédex with information on Zekrom and {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Reshiram}}. This allowed Black to figure out how Reshiram's powers worked, enabling him to defeat N. | |||
====={{MangaArc|Black 2 & White 2}}===== | |||
In ''[[PS541|Pink Slip]]'', Cedric, Bianca, Professor Juniper, [[Fennel]], and [[Amanita]] hid in Fennel's house in [[Striaton City]], which had been frozen by Team Plasma's flying ship, the [[Plasma Frigate]]. Fennel revealed that she discovered another dimension known as the [[Pokémon Dream World]] and hypothesized that Black may have been sent there after being sealed into the [[Light Stone]]. Hearing this, Bianca immediately decided to go to the [[Entralink]], but Fennel admitted she already sent White there to confirm her theory. The plan proved to be a success, as White managed to find and obtain the Light Stone. | |||
In ''[[PS547|The Final Battle: Crushed Ambition]]'', Cedric and Bianca traveled to [[Undella Town]], which had also been frozen by the Plasma Frigate. They attempted to break the ice covering the [[Marine Tube]]'s entrance to free Cheren and his class, who had been using the place as shelter. With the combined might of {{m|Water Pledge}}, {{m|Grass Pledge}}, and {{m|Fire Pledge}}, Bianca, Cheren, Cedric, and [[Benga]] destroyed the ice and rescued everyone. After confirming the safety of Cheren's missing students, Bianca revealed to him that Black had been freed from the Light Stone. Cedric and the others were transported to the abandoned N's Castle. The area had been set ablaze when the Plasma Frigate crashed into it, putting the Pokémon Team Plasma left behind at risk. In order to put the flames out, Cedric, Black, White, Blake, Whitley, [[Hugh]], Cheren, Bianca, and Benga combined the might of all three stages of the Unova [[first partner Pokémon]] and unleashed a triple Water, Grass, and Fire Pledge combination attack. | |||

Pokémon Adventures
Black & White arc
Cedric Juniper is a Pokémon researcher and the father of Professor Juniper. He first appeared in A Nickname for Tepig during a flashback of Black, Cheren, and Bianca's childhood. The children watched an interview Cedric had with a reporter where they discussed the creation of a new Pokédex.
In At Liberty on Liberty Garden, Cedric arrived at Professor Juniper's lab to assist her in repairing two damaged Pokédexes meant for Cheren and Bianca. By A Lost Melody, the Pokédexes were fixed. Cedric was sent to Castelia City, where he met with Bianca. To Professor Juniper's surprise, Bianca revealed she had chosen to give up on her Pokémon journey and become her assistant instead. When asked about the Pokédex, Bianca decided to give it to White.
In A Week to Go and Old Wounds, Cedric encountered Black and Iris at Route 6. There, he told them about the Legendary Pokémon Cobalion, Virizion, and Terrakion and their distrust of humans. With the information he learned, Black was able to track down the Swords of Justice and rescue a group of Pokémon they took from their Trainers.
In Will the Truth Come Out?, Cedric appeared to demand that N reveal the whereabouts of the Gym Leaders Team Plasma had kidnapped. He, Black, and White teamed up to battle N. During the battle, Cedric revealed that a year ago, N broke into his lab and stole three first partner Pokémon he prepared for new Trainers. While the Snivy went with N and the Tepig was found by White, the Oshawott chose to stay with him, eventually evolving into a Samurott. Though the battle ended in N's defeat, he managed to flee without revealing anything. As N left, his Pokémon forcibly took the third Pokédex meant for Cheren and destroyed it.
In Cold Hard Truth, Team Plasma launched their attack on the Pokémon League, surrounding the area with N's Castle. During Black's final battle against N he was assisted by Cedric, Looker, and Leo, who attempted to attack N's Zekrom. When their attacks failed, Cedric upgraded Black's Pokédex with information on Zekrom and Reshiram. This allowed Black to figure out how Reshiram's powers worked, enabling him to defeat N.
Black 2 & White 2 arc
In Pink Slip, Cedric, Bianca, Professor Juniper, Fennel, and Amanita hid in Fennel's house in Striaton City, which had been frozen by Team Plasma's flying ship, the Plasma Frigate. Fennel revealed that she discovered another dimension known as the Pokémon Dream World and hypothesized that Black may have been sent there after being sealed into the Light Stone. Hearing this, Bianca immediately decided to go to the Entralink, but Fennel admitted she already sent White there to confirm her theory. The plan proved to be a success, as White managed to find and obtain the Light Stone.
In The Final Battle: Crushed Ambition, Cedric and Bianca traveled to Undella Town, which had also been frozen by the Plasma Frigate. They attempted to break the ice covering the Marine Tube's entrance to free Cheren and his class, who had been using the place as shelter. With the combined might of Water Pledge, Grass Pledge, and Fire Pledge, Bianca, Cheren, Cedric, and Benga destroyed the ice and rescued everyone. After confirming the safety of Cheren's missing students, Bianca revealed to him that Black had been freed from the Light Stone. Cedric and the others were transported to the abandoned N's Castle. The area had been set ablaze when the Plasma Frigate crashed into it, putting the Pokémon Team Plasma left behind at risk. In order to put the flames out, Cedric, Black, White, Blake, Whitley, Hugh, Cheren, Bianca, and Benga combined the might of all three stages of the Unova first partner Pokémon and unleashed a triple Water, Grass, and Fire Pledge combination attack.
Pokémon
Samurott was originally an Oshawott that was intended to be given to starting Trainers by Cedric along with the ones given by his daughter. N liberated the other two Pokémon—one of which ended up with White—while it stayed with Cedric and eventually evolved. It appeared with Cedric when he came to help Black and White fight against N. Together with Black's Bo and White's Amanda, they managed to defeat N, only for him to escape. During the final battle against N, Samurott was used against N's Zekrom alongside Looker's Croagunk and Leo's Deino. In the final battle against new Team Plasma, it used Water Pledge with the other first partner Pokémon to put out the fire on N's Castle.
Samurott's only known move is Water Pledge and its Ability is Torrent.
