Revision as of 00:10, 11 November 2010
Sird (Japanese: サキ Saki) is one of The Three Beasts of Team Rocket in the FireRed & LeafGreen arc of the Pokémon Adventures manga.
In the FireRed & LeafGreen arc, Sird worked with Giovanni and the other Beasts on the Sevii Islands and fought and defeated Lorelei on Seven Island. Later, she fell from Team Rocket's helicopter after it was taken over by Carr, but she (unlike Orm) survived. She later tried to catch Deoxys by disabling it with an energy beam launched from her Poké Ball, but was foiled when Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and Silver (along with Mewtwo) used their bodies to block the beam from Deoxys, who escaped. However, to their surprise, the five Pokédex holders' bodies were turned to stone as a result. Having one of Lorelei's ice cuffs pinned and rapidly expanding from her left leg before she attempted the capture, she fled after remarking that this new gain is nothing short of capturing Deoxys as she had intended.
Later, after the climax of the Emerald arc, Archie reveals that Sird temporarily saved his and Maxie's lives just as they were about to be killed while fleeing in an air-car, at the end of the Ruby & Sapphire arc. The means that she did this are unknown. She offered him and Maxie the armor and sword that would later transform Archie into Guile Hideout, claimed they would give eternal life, but said that there was only one armor so they would have to fight to the death to see who would gain the armor, with Archie winning and killing Maxie in the end. Strangely enough, after she gave the armor to Archie, she quoted Veilstone's Myth, which similarly refers to a man with a sword. Also worth noting is in a flashback from Crys, before Archie and the armor vanished, when she asked who was behind it Archie muttered out 'Galac', the first few syllables of Galatic, as in Team Galactic, possibly meaning Sird is part of or has some connection to the team.
It is unknown what else Sird has done, and she has yet to be shown in future chapters.

- In the Emerald arc, Pyramid King Brandon makes a comment about someone using Jirachi to wish for immortality 1000 years ago. Some fans speculate that this wisher was Sird since she was the one who informed Guile Hideout about Jirachi.
