Uranus is a fan made name for a Galactic Grunt with a swollen butt who is a recurring character in Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!

We first meet Uranus in Hareta's Very First Pokémon Battle!!, in Jubilife City with another Grunt. The two of them confront Hareta (who has wandered off while Mitsumi was speaking) and noting the rarity of his Piplup, they demand that he hand it over. Hareta refuses however and gets mad upon recognising their smell as being the same one as when Onix went crazy, one of the Grunts commands his Wurmple to use String Shot on Hareta and Piplup so they can take Piplup and make a clean getaway. However Hareta manages to follow the pair to Oreburgh Gate, where he manages to bite Uranus's butt before being taken down by the other Grunt's Wurmple's Poison Sting. The pair of Grunts take Hareta to the Oreburgh Mine, Uranus stating that they're going to make him regret not only crossing them, but also biting him. But before they can exact their revenge, they are defeated by Roark who happens to be nearby and the pair subsequently flee.

When Uranus appears again, he is on his own on the road to Celestic Town carrying a briefcase containing a "Secret Item". Hareta asks if he's up to no good again, Uranus refuses to tell him, but then blabs anyway that it's an item to catch a legendary Pokémon that must be kept secret until he delivers it to his boss. After Mitsumi points out that he just told them everything, he panics deciding that he must now hurry in order to deliver it. However as he begins to run, he is tripped up by Cynthia. He then sends out his Beautifly to battle, but it is instantly defeated by Piplup. So next he sends out three Wurmple and have them all use String Shot together, Hareta appears to be in trouble unable to deal with this amount of string, until Cynthia's Garchomp helps out. However, the String Shot was merely a diversion and Uranus had already escaped.

When Hareta and Mitsumi arrive in Celestic Town, they find Uranus and a group of other Galactic Grunts at the Celestic Ruins. He says that they're too late as he has already delivered the item to his boss and is now on his next assignment. After Cynthia's grandmother refuses to divulge any information about Dialga, he activates a bomb to destroy the relics. Hareta attempts to disarm the bomb, but instead reduces the time remaining from 5 minutes to 30 seconds. Uranus and the other Grunts then call a hasty retreat.

The next appearance of Uranus is on Iron Island. Hareta challenges him to a battle and his Graveler is then defeated by Riley's Lucario. As Hareta and Riley train together, they notice that all the wild Pokémon on Iron Island are in a rage. Eventually, Uranus reveals himself to be responsible and attacks with his Drapion. Through a tag-team of Hareta's newly hatched Riolu and Riley's Lucario, Uranus is defeated and flees once again.

He is also present at Lake Valor, where he reveals that the briefcase he delivered to the boss earlier was actually the Galactic Bomb which drained the lake. He tells Hareta that he stands no chance against all the Galactc Grunts gathered there alone, however the Sinnoh Gym Leaders appear to take care of the Grunts while Hareta and Byron deal with Saturn. As the events at Lake Valor unfold, Cyrus himself becomes involved and in the end Team Galactic is defeated, however Uranus still manages to escape with the captive Azelf.

He later appears at the Snowpoint Temple, where he witnesses the battle between Hareta and Regigigas. When he is found after the battle, Byron tells him to go tell Cyrus that the end is near.

When Hareta and the Gym Leaders arrive at Team Galactic HQ, Uranus is the designated watchman. When everyone (other than Byron) decide to have a picnic outside before going in, he asks them what they're doing out here and Hareta tell him that they're having a picnic and asks him if he wants to join. Uranus accepts the invitation. After everyone has eaten their fill, Uranus is swiftly defeated in battle and Hareta and the Gym Leaders storm the building. This culminates with the building's self destruction as Cyrus escapes to Mt. Coronet with the Red Chain.

When Hareta is on his way to the Spear Pillar to stop Cyrus, after defeating Mars, Uranus steps in binding Hareta with his Wurmple's String Shot. However, as a light shines down from the summit, Mars and the still bound by string Hareta head up to the Spear Pillar, as Uranus calls out for them to wait up. After this, he appears to be the last person to arrive at the summit, being there in time to help with Cyrus's plan to stop Dialga and Palkia and send them back to where they came from. Following this, Cyrus left Team Galactic, with Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Uranus also presumably doing so.

Trivia

• In the special story, Deoxys, The Phantom Pokémon!, Uranus stands guard at the Galactic Warehouse.
• It is not known if Uranus's butt was always as large as it is or only became so as a result of Hareta biting it, as in his initial appearance, there are no shots where you get a clear angle until it is bitten.
• As he was never named in the original manga, fans have taken to calling him "Uranus", as a pun referring to the naming scheme of the Commanders and a reference to his large butt.
