'''Groudon''' (Japanese: '''グラードン''' ''Groudon'') is a character from ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.

==History==
[[File:Groudon Fossil.png|200px|thumb|left|Groudon Fossil in Butler's presentation to Team Magma]]
[[Butler]] was assigned by [[Team Magma]] to bring a Groudon back to life using a Fossil of the prehistoric Pokémon. Unfortunately his experiment failed as his machine lacked the proper amount of power. This got Butler exiled from Team Magma, and was the sole event that caused his hatred to boil and to seek revenge on the organization. Butler then planned to use the power of the millennium comet to complete his experiment, and was in need of a {{p|Jirachi}} which could channel the comet's energy. Some time later, Butler found the {{mov|Jirachi|Jirachi|06}} he had been searching for in the land of [[Forina]].

[[File:Jirachi Doom Desire 2.png|275px|thumb|right|Being hit with Jirachi's Doom Desire]]
After the Jirachi had awaken from its thousand year sleep, Butler successfully finished his experiment. Unfortunately, his creation was pure evil, rogue, and began absorbing the energy from the earth as well as living organisms such as plants, people, and Pokémon; including {{an|May}}, {{an|Brock}}, [[Diane]], [[Jessie]], [[James]], {{MTR}}, and many of the wild Pokémon; with gelatinous tentacles expelled from its spikes. After seeing the error of his ways, Butler decided to aid {{Ash}} in destroying his own creation by reversing the polarity of his machine. However the Groudon had to be near the machine for it to work, and Jirachi had to once again charge the energy gained from the comet. Butler distracted the Groudon on his {{p|Salamence}} while Ash and [[Max]] rode on the back of a wild {{p|Flygon}} to Butler's machine. They barely escape being eaten themselves when Salamence swoops in front of the Flygon. Salamence however is caught in the tentacle and Butler is sent falling to his doom, only to be rescued by Jirachi {{m|Teleport|teleporting}} his Salamence under him just in time to catch his fall. Once Jirachi is fully charged, Butler, his Salamence, and the Flygon are caught by the Groudon who has enveloped the machine with its enormous body. Jirachi unleashes its {{m|Doom Desire}} and sends the Groudon high in the air where it is then obliterated.

After the Groudon was defeated, all of the people and Pokémon it had eaten were revitalized.

She first appeared in the bushes, waving her hands and asking [[Conway]] to play with her. During the night of event, Conway followed her on the way to a cliff, but {{p|Dusknoir}} saves him. The ghost girl also lured {{MTR}} with food, but Dusknoir appears to stop her.

The girl beckons {{Ash}} and [[Angie]] to follow her to the [[Summit Ruins]]. Then the girl tried to coax Ash and Angie into the mysterious cave, which is the entrance to the spirit world.

Lokoko

[[File:Lokoko.png|thumb|right|Lokoko]]

'''Lokoko''' (Japanese: '''ロココ''' ''Rokoko'') is a [[character of the day]] from the [[Pokémon anime]]. She appeared in ''[[EP232|Just Waiting On A Friend]]''.

Lokoko lived in a mansion with a {{p|Ninetales}}. {{an|Brock}} fell head over heels in love with her, and was considering living with her forever. But {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} felt that something was odd. Whenever Lokoko went by a mirror, she had no reflection, and whenever they tried to alert Brock to what was happening, Lokoko and Ninetales would get in their way.

After finding an old room in the mansion, they learned that the Ninetales belonged to the owner of the mansion. He left one day hundreds of years before, and never returned. Lokoko was an illusion created by the Ninetales.

After a battle with {{TRT}}, Brock learned the truth about Lokoko and Ninetales. The reason they wanted him to stay was due to his resemblance to the mansion's owner. After Ninetales's [[Poké Ball]] was broken in battle, Brock told it to go free. Once it did, the mansion and Lokoko disappeared.

Zackgood: /* Trivia */

[[Image:The Black Arachnid.png|thumb|220px|The Black Arachnid]]
'''The Black Arachnid''' (Japanese: '''怪盗猫八''' ''The Phantom Thief {{tt|Nekohachi|Cat Eight}}'') was a cat burglar and one of the greatest thieves in the history of [[Johto]]. He appeared in a flashback in ''[[EP123|Spinarak Attack]]''.

Operating out of [[Catallia City]] 100 years ago, the Black Arachnid was a clever, quick, and agile thief who employed a {{p|Meowth}} to help him pick locks. The two stole many priceless treasures and always escaped by using {{m|Pay Day}} to cause a distraction long enough to scare away the [[International Police|police]].

He was finally caught when an [[Officer Jenny]] caught the pair with her {{p|Spinarak}}, and to this day, all of the police officers of Catallia City use Spinarak as a tribute to her.

Marcus's soldiers

Zackgood: /* Trivia */

{{MissingInfo|1|enva}}

[[File:Marcus Soldiers.png|thumb|right|275px|Marcus's soldiers]]
'''Marcus's soldiers''' are a group of minor characters in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''. Only three have speaking roles. They are voiced by ''Ryūmi Akiyama'', ''Hiroyuki Baba'' and ''Hiroshi Yamamoto''.

The soldiers first appear when {{Ash}}, {{ashfr}}, and [[Sheena]] are sent back in time by {{mov|Dialga}}. As they are the guards of the [[Michina Town|Michina]] temple, they quickly capture the group under the orders of their leader, [[Marcus]]. Marcus goes on to have his {{p|Bronzong}} use {{m|Hypnosis}} on all but Sheena, then ordering the soldiers to take the others away.

Another soldier is seen later, preparing food with the forced aid of a {{p|Chikorita}} and a {{p|Cyndaquil}}. He is interfered with by {{AP|Pikachu}}, {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}}, the [[Spiky-eared Pichu]], and a {{p|Totodile}}.

Another soldier is [[Tapp]], who guards Marcus's prison cell.

In the present day, the soldiers' old equipment is found in the ruins by {{TRT}}.

(Japanese: '''タップ''' ''Tapp'') is a minor character in ''[[M12|Arceus and the Jewel of Life]]''.

==History==
Tapp lived in the ancient past and served [[Marcus]] at the temple in [[Michina Town]]. He was employed as a security guard, and was charged with guarding the cell that Marcus confined [[Damos]] to as he prepared his plan to destroy {{mov|Arceus|Arceus|12}}. Later, {{Ash}}, {{an|Brock}} and {{an|Dawn}} were also imprisoned in the cell.

Tapp explained to them their situation, and that one of Marcus's "magical creatures" used Hypnosis on them (Brock later recalling it was his {{p|Bronzong}}). The group ask of the whereabouts of Pikachu, Piplup, and Sheena, and Tapp assures them that they are safe and that Sheena is speaking with Marcus. As the group discover that Damos is in the cell with them, and do not believe his claim of his intention of returning the Jewel of Life to Arceus, Tapp states that he knows for a fact that Damos was intending to return it back, although he adds that he is completely uncertain whether it is the correct action for Damos to take.

Despite being tasked with keeping the prisoners confined, Tapp allowed them to leave when a [[Spiky-eared Pichu]] brought the jail cell's keys, Damos subsequently tossing back the keys to Tapp.

Tapp can be seen with the group witnessing the attempted destruction of Arceus by Marcus, although he seems to not be present throughout the group's attempt to thwart Marcus's plan. Tapp reappears during Arceus's departure to regain its strength, seen observing the scene from behind a column.

J's henchmen

2013-08-13T06:37:48Z

Zackgood: /* Voice actors */

[[Image:J henchmen.png|thumb|240px|J's henchmen]]
'''J's henchmen''' are men who help Pokémon Hunter [[J]] in her crimes. They first appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty]]''.

Only two of J's henchmen are shown to have their own Pokémon. These particular henchmen catalog all of the Pokémon J has stolen and they appear to be the most important of them. One of them used a {{p|Golbat}} to {{pkmn|battle}} [[Ash's Pikachu]] before {{Ash}}, [[Jessie]] and [[James]] attempted to sneak off J's airborne base after rescuing Pikachu, {{TRT}}'s {{MTR}} and [[Melodi]]'s {{p|Gardevoir}}. Some of these henchmen were captured by [[Officer Jenny]] at the end of their first appearance. The ones that weren't captured appeared in ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]''. In this episode, the other important henchman appeared, also using a Golbat to fight Pikachu.

These same henchmen also appeared in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]]'' ''[[DP072|and Two]]'', where more of their Pokémon appeared. They appeared once more in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', with even more of their Pokémon.

The henchmen made a brief appearance in ''[[DP151|The Needs of Three!]]'' alongside J, after her mission to capture {{p|Mesprit}}, {{p|Azelf}} and {{p|Uxie}}, and were aboard her ship when it was destroyed by the Lake Guardians. Although it is unknown if any of the henchmen were able to get off the ship before it exploded, it is possible that at least some of them perished when the ship flooded—if so, marking one of the rare times that a human is killed in the series.

'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is the boss of [[Team Galactic]], a man aiming to create a world without spirit.

==In the games==
As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the nihilistic, god-complexed main antagonist of the [[Sinnoh]] games, with the ultimate goal of summoning {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} in order to destroy the universe so that he may start it again as its god. Born and raised in [[Sunyshore City]], he was known to be a good, albeit asocial, student, and so preferred the company of machines over humans and Pokémon. Despite being such a good student, however, he did not live up to his parents' expectations, and so felt rejected. Sometime after this, he decided emotions were the source of all strife in the world, and that only the elimination of emotions, along with spirit, was the only cure to fighting in the world, which lead to his plan and actions during the storyline in Sinnoh. His grandfather, who lives on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}} in {{game|Platinum}}, regrets not taking him in during his time of need.

==={{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}===
The player first meets him in [[Mt. Coronet]], but he does not battle, nor give his name. Later on, the two men guarding [[Lake Valor]] will mention his name in passing, though Cyrus himself is not identified until he introduces himself after the {{player}} defeats a {{tc|Galactic Grunt}} and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]].

After his defeat at the Spear Pillar, Cyrus claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]].

====Quotes====
=====Mt. Coronet=====
:''"According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded.. There should have been no strife. But what became of that world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has appeared... This world is being ruined by it...I find the state of things to be deplorable..."''

=====Celestic Town=====
:''"There appears to have been an insignificant struggle here. Everyone should step back and view things from a bigger perspective. Yes, a bigger perspective, one that is on a universal scale. My name is Cyrus. I seek the power to create a new world, a world without strife. However that power seems to be unavailable here... We've met before, yes? It was at Mt. Coronet. If you discover any power derived from the legends of Sinnoh, inform me. For that power is what I need to create my new world."''

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
* Before battle
:''"I see. You must be the Trainer I've been hearing about. The foolhardy one that's trying to stand up to Team Galactic. Although I'd hardly expected to see that the Trainer is a mere child. I'd heard that our Commanders had a rough time with you... I know why you're here, I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead, I couldn't care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing of them."''

:''"But I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they not? But still you came to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and lacking human heart. You were compelled to come here by vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last Pokémon."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"I see... I may lose if this pace continues..."''

* When defeated
:''"Interesting and quite curious."''

* After being defeated
:''"I see. You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion toward Pokémon. How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless sentimentality. But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognize that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward."''

:''"The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own. If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. That's correct. Mt. Coronet. Where you and I first met. I will ascend the mountain to its peak and put an end to everything... No. I will bring about a new beginning for everything..."''

=====Spear Pillar=====
:''"Now all will end. And everything will begin. With this [[Red Chain]] I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash all your power for me... {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}/{{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}} the mythical Pokémon and the master of time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}}! This will bring about the destruction of all things. With everything gone, there will be no fighting and no strife. Can you feel time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}} distorting? Only I can choose to stop it. This is the mythical Pokémon that created Sinnoh! Dialga{{sup/4|D}}/Palkia{{sup/4|P}} the ancient deity of time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}}! This world cannot be molded into the ultimate world I seek! It's far easier to create an entirely new world than to change this one! A new world in which I am the ruler of all things! I shall become a deity!"''

:''"Oh! Dialga{{sup/4|D}}/Palkia{{sup/4|P}}... This is... Fantastic! Beautiful! It's the creating of a new galaxy! My new world! ... Wh-what?!"''

* Before battle
:''"The Red Chain! It crumbled away to nothing?! But why? Why would {{p|Mesprit}}, the Pokémon of Lake Verity, appear by your side? But never mind that! It's all destroyed! My galaxy is gone! I won't allow this... I will capture those three again and craft another Red Chain! But before I even think about that, I'm going to completely crush you!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I admit that you have pushed me to this extreme."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"This... this cannot be! It's not possible that I lose!"''

* When defeated
:''"I won't admit this! The power spoken of in mythology... I didn't just make it obey me, I made it my own!"''

* After being defeated
:''"What is truly ultimate to you? What do you consider perfection? The most important thing... What shines the brightest... Telling you is meaningless. But I will not give up. I will become a deity one day... And I will make the ultimate mine..."''

[[File:CyrusPlatopen.png|thumb|256px|Cyrus in the opening of Platinum]]
Cyrus has, in a way, more of a role in {{v2|Platinum}}, as he is first met at [[Lake Verity]] near the start of the game. He is also met in front of the statue in [[Eterna City]]. Unlike before, he is first battled in the ruins of [[Celestic Town]]. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar, he is taken by {{p|Giratina}} to the [[Distortion World]]. After the player battles Giratina, Cyrus stays in the Distortion World, still vowing to create a world without spirit.

====Quotes====
=====Lake Verity=====
:''"...The flowing time... The expanding space... I will make it all mine one day... Cyrus is my name. Remember it... Until then, sleep while you can, legendary Pokémon of the lake bed...."''

:''"Allow me to pass. Step aside."''

=====Eterna City=====
:''"...So, this is Eterna's Pokémon statue... Shaping our world are time and space in an intertwining spiral. Revered in Sinnoh are the Pokémon of time and space... Sinnoh's myth... Its truth needs investigation..."''

:''"...Pardon me. Stand aside."''

:''"..."''

=====Mt. Coronet=====
:''"According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded... There should have been no strife. But what became of the world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has spread... This world is being ruined by it... I find this state of affairs deplorable..."''

=====Celestic Town=====
* Before battle
:''"I would like to know more about that legend, if you will."''

:''"My name is Cyrus. I want to put an end to pointless strife and hostility. I am seeking the power to create the ideal world. Thus, I want you to answer. The world today can't change because the [[Lake guardians|three Pokémon]] keep it in balance. Is that what you are saying?"''

:''"...Plead ignorance, will you? What a pointless attitude. You fail to appreciate that the world is incomplete. I will change the world. As the first step, I will destroy this cave painting that you've protected all these years. A new legend of a new world will take its place. Am I wrong? If you feel that way, challenge me."''

:''"...I know you, Trainer. We've met at Mt. Coronet. Why would to protect this incomplete world? As the boss of Team Galactic, I will show you the error of your ways."''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"You've forced my hand this time!"''

* When defeated
:''"Impressive. Your prowess is notable."''

* After being defeated
:''"...Remarkable. But, Elder, your attitude told me what I needed to know. If the beings of time and space are brought together, they can't be stopped..."''

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
:''"Fellow members of Team Galactic! Hear me! My name, as I appear to you today, is Cyrus. This world of ours is a crude one. In a word, it is incomplete. It has been, and always will be, a struggle to survive in this world. We humans and Pokémon are likewise incomplete. Because we are all so lacking, we fight, we maim... It is ugly. I hate the incompleteness. That we are all incomplete, I hate it with my entire body and being. The world should be complete. The world must change. Then, who will change it? Me, Cyrus. And Team Galactic. Yes, all of you. Together we pored over myths and exposed their secrets. Together we captured legendary Pokémon. And now, Team Galactic has obtained the energy to change the world! The power of dreams is within our grasp! Understand it, fellow members! My long-held dreamworld is on the verge of becoming reality. All those headed to Mt. Coronet, and those who remain here... Though our missions may differ, our hearts beat as one. Let there be glory for Team Galactic!"''

* Before battle
:''"...So you've come. You heard my speech, I take it. Snicker... A big lie, of course. It's true, insofar as my intention is to create a new world. But that world isn't for the likes of Team Galactic. I seek an entirely new world solely for myself. If not, it could never be the complete and perfect world. You've seen my minions of Team Galactic. You yourself must know that they are uniformly useless and incomplete."''

:''"I know why you're here. I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead. I couldn't care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing them."''

:''"But, I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they? But still you come to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and faulty human heart. You were compelled to come here by such vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last Pokémon."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"I see... I may lose if this pace continues..."''

* When defeated
:''"Interesting. And quite curious."''

* After being defeated
:''"I see... You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion towards Pokémon."''

:''"...How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless as sentimentality."''

:''"...But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognize that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward."''

:''"The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own."''

:''"If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. I will ascend the mountain to its peak where destiny awaits me. It is there that I will create my new world..."''

=====Spear Pillar=====
:''"... ... Everything is ready for the creation of a new world. Now, all will end. And everything will begin. With this, the Red Chain made from the crystals of the three lake Pokémon. And this, the Red Chain I replicated with technological means... With these Red Chains I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash your power for me..."''

:''"{{p|Dialga}}, the mythical Pokémon, and the master of time! ...And the other. {{p|Palkia}}, the mythical Pokémon, and the master of space and dimensions!"''

:''"I've waited so long for this moment, Dialga and Palkia. Shaping this world is a double spiral of time and space. Yes, the very things that you have the ability to control! You will do my bidding! I will have your abilities as mine! With the power I wield, I will create an entirely new world! The incomplete and ugly world we have now can disappear. I am resetting everything to zero. Nothing can remain. It is all for making the ultimate world. A world of complete perfection. Nothing so vague and incomplete as spirit can remain."''

:''"...I should have expected as much. {{p|Uxie}}, "The Being of Knowledge." {{p|Azelf}}, "The Being of Willpower." And {{p|Mesprit}}, "The Being of Emotion"..."''

:''"The Pokémon have come to protect Sinnoh? Pathetic and worthless. It takes the three of them, the three lake Pokémon that symbolize spirit, to balance either the Pokémon of time or space. But they can't maintain balance against the two. Not when both Dialga and Palkia are here. Their coming here is in vain. So much meaningless drama. Now, <player>. You've constantly interfered with my plans, but you will be forgiven. After all, there will remain no spirit for all time when I am done. All spirit will disappear. It will be ripped away... From you! From your Pokémon! From those precious to you...! It is time! My dream will be my reality!"''

:''"What is this pressure I feel...? Something...is enraged?"''

:''"Interesting. So, there is a Pokémon that can only appear as a shadow."''

:''"Regardless, the effort is rash and foolish. I have harnessed the powers of Dialga and Palkia..."''

:''"I, Cyrus, won't have any more interferererererere...!"''

=====Distortion World=====
{{incomplete|section|What he says if player selects no?}}
:''"... The shadowy Pokémon isn't here. It abandoned me here, then disappeared somewhere farther down... Was it content to merely interfere with my plan...? Incidentally, do you understand the concept of genes?"''

::'''Yes:''' ''"... If it's true, you've impressed me. Genes can be considered the blueprints of all life-forms. That includes humans and Pokémon alike. Genes are contained in a DNA strand. A DNA strand consists of 2 chains of opposing characteristics in a spiral. If one of the chains were to be broken, the other could replicate it. One or the other cannot exist without its opposite."''

:''"Do you understand where I am going with this? This is a bizarre world. Time doesn't flow. Space isn't stable. Only that shadowy Pokémon lives here. This world is the opposite of our world-- our world I wish to change. It is like the two chains composing the strand of DNA. The two worlds must be balancing each other to remain in existence. Without one, the other cannot exist. The shadowy Pokémon must play a role in keeping the worlds in balance. That is why it must have interfered and brought me here. The shadowy Pokémon must have made this bizarre world. That's why trying to change our world disturbed it and made it reveal itself. But that is all irrelevant. What matters is defeating that Pokémon and making this world disappear. I won't allow it to interfere with me again. With it gone, neither world will be able to revert to its original state..."''

* Before battle
:''"Why should I run and hide from the world and have to wait quietly? My aim is to rid our world of the vague and incomplete thing we call spirit. By freeing ourselves of that, our world can be made complete. That is my justice! No one can interfere!"''

:''"I won't lose! Not to that shadowy Pokémon! Not in any worthless world!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I admit that you have pushed me to this extreme."''

* During battle (last Pokémon with less than half HP)
:''"This... this cannot be! It's not possible that I lose!"''

* When defeated
:''"I won't accept this! This can't be! Not after all the sacrifices we've made to get this far! What of my new world?! Of my new galaxy?! Was this all a dream to be swept away by your reality?!"''

* After battle
:''"... Don't think that you can defeat or capture that Pokémon. This bizarre world is none other than that Pokémon itself! Capturing it or defeating it will make this world disappear! Very well! Do what you will! Rather than repairing the world, you're going to destroy it for me! Do it. You inherit my legacy."''

* After battle with Giratina
:''"That Pokémon... That shadowy Pokémon was {{tt|captured/defeated|Depends on the outcome, unless player fled}}?! Your doing so means that this irrational world will remain in existence! Does that make it impossible for me to create a new world? Even if I made new Red Chains, the new world can't be made! Why?! What compels you to protect the two worlds? Is spirit, a vague and incomplete thing, so important to you?!"''

:''"'''Silence!''' Enough of your blathering! That's how you justify spirit as something worthwhile?! That is merely humans hoping, deluding themselves that they are happy and safe! The emotions roiling inside me... Rage, hatred, frustration... These ugly emotions arise because of my own incomplete spirit! ...Enough. We will never see eye to eye. This, I promise you. I will break the secrets of the world. With that knowledge, I will create my own complete and perfect world. One day, you will awaken to a world of my creation. A world without spirit."''

* If the player fled from Giratina
:''"That shadowy Pokémon... You quelled its rage by refusing to battle it?! Your doing so means that this irrational world will remain in existence! Does that make it impossible for me to create a new world? Even if I made new Red Chains, the new world can't be made! Why?! What compels you to protect the two worlds? Is spirit, a vague and incomplete thing, so important to you?!"''

:''"'''Silence!''' Enough of your blathering! That's how you justify spirit as something worthwhile?! That is merely humans hoping, deluding themselves that they are happy and safe! The emotions roiling inside me... Rage, hatred, frustration... These ugly emotions arise because of my own incomplete spirit! ...Enough. We will never see eye to eye. This, I promise you. I will break the secrets of the world. With that knowledge, I will create my own complete and perfect world. One day, you will awaken to a world of my creation. A world without spirit."''

==In the anime==
[[File:Cyrus anime.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus in the anime]]
Cyrus made his first appearance in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', along with [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]]. It was revealed that he is a rich businessman who has made most of the buildings and libraries throughout [[Sinnoh]]. However, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} do not know that he is also the Team Galactic leader. Using his businessman alter-ego, he visits the [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]] while the remaining members of [[Team Galactic]] carry out a plan to steal the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}} from the Research Center, after having already stolen the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}} from its [[Eterna City]] police escort.

He discovers from {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} that they have seen {{p|Azelf}} and {{p|Mesprit}} when the two tell of their encounters with the mysterious Pokémon at [[Lake Verity]] and [[Lake Valor]], which apparently intrigues him.

He appeared again in ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]''. He was seen in Team Galactic's headquarters alongside Saturn and Jupiter as well as [[Charon]]. They were coordinating Mars's mission on [[Iron Island]] and using a beam launched with the [[Spear Key]] to scan energy readings from the [[Spear Pillar]]. However, Mars's machine was destroyed when the scan had reached only 60%, presumably ruining their mission. Despite this, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged.

Cyrus also appeared towards the end of ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', in which he requested [[J]]'s services in capturing {{p|Uxie}}, Mesprit and Azelf. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', he takes control of Dialga and Palkia, and steps into a portal created by the two legendary Pokémon. The portal was soon destroyed, leaving Cyrus's fate unknown; however it is implied that the dimension was destroyed by Dialga and Palkia.

He appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy with all the other members of Team Galactic.

===In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga===
[[File:Cyrus Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Cyrus in Pokémon Adventures]]
Cyrus makes his first appearance in ''[[PS348|A Big Stink Over Stunky]]'' as a silhouette walking down {{rt|207|Sinnoh}} where he receives a package; he is fully revealed after signing the receipt and goes to [[Mt. Coronet]]. When {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} pass through Mt. Coronet he coldly attacks them with his newly evolved Probopass and Magnezone, trapping them underneath a pile of rubble and leaves while stating that they were disturbing sacred ground.

Cyrus later appears at the Celestic ruins where Diamond and Pearl finally meet him in person. He came to the ruins to find information of the Legendary Pokémon Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit. He battles [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] and later, Diamond and Pearl, who had stolen the camera he used to take pictures of the paintings in the ruins. As they battle each other, Pearl has his [[Chatler]] destroy the camera that Cyrus was fighting for. With his camera destroyed and having the information he needed, Cyrus takes his leave and traps the two boys on top of a pillar of stone.

After [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]], and [[Saturn]] arrive from their successful mission to capture the [[Lake guardians]], Cyrus begins the creation of the [[Red Chain]].

After managing to make one Red Chain, Cyrus is attacked by the researcher of the Sinnoh myths and the Sinnoh region Champion, [[Cynthia]]. After a long battle, Cyrus manages to escape with Cynthia and her Garchomp far too exhausted to follow him. When he goes to check on the progress of the second Red Chain’s creation, he finds that Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie have all been freed from their containers. Cyrus, realizing that recapturing them would be impossible and that he has to use his weaker, artificially created Red Chain, furiously flies off to the [[Spear Pillar]].

He arrives at the Spear Pillar where he greeted by his Galactic Commanders who were worried about his injured state. Cyrus tells them to ignore it and stop any intruders from interrupting his ritual to summon the Legendary {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. Cyrus manages to summon the two dragon Pokémon and has them fight each other, causing Time and Space to distort in various ways. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter are eventually defeated by the Sinnoh Gym Leaders and they all ambush Cyrus while he has Dialga and Palkia fight each other. Despite his best efforts, Cyrus is unable to stop them from breaking the Red Chain he was using and unleashes his fury onto them.

Later, when Diamond and Pearl go through with their assault on Dialga and Palkia, Cyrus attacks them while under the cover of a thick black {{m|haze}}. He reveals the reason for why he tried to make a new world; while Emotion, Knowledge, and Willpower make up a complete world, the world they live always has one that is lacking compared to the other two and as such, Cyrus aims to create a world without any of these aspects, a world that is perfect.

When Diamond uses his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} to stop Dialga and Palkia from causing anymore space-time anomalies, Cyrus attacks the boy and knocks him off the giant Pokémon. Cyrus states that Diamond wouldn’t be able to understand the reason why he does the things he does but the young boy replies with his own definition of Time and Space that he had learned on his journey with Pearl and Platinum. Cyrus at first ignores his words but quickly notices that Dialga and Palkia have stopped fighting with each other and quickly uses the Red Chain to get them fighting again. With only one Red Chain, Cyrus only has half control over the two dragons; Diamond and Pearl decide to take advantage of this and attack the two dragons with their teams.

Dialga and Palkia, now freed from their controlled status, use their powers to create a sphere of light that pulls Cyrus off the ground and into it. As he floats into the sphere of light, Cyrus looks at the Sinnoh Pokédex holders and realizes that they are a perfect combination of Knowledge (Platinum), Emotion (Diamond), and Willpower (Pearl) and that was the reason he was defeated. He is next seen lying unconscious on the ground where Cynthia decides to take him to the hospital before interrogating him. While he and the unconscious Gym Leaders he had defeated earlier are taken to get medical help an accident caused by [[Charon]]'s machine caused a [[Distortion World|hole]] to appear in the sky where mysterious {{p|Giratina|black tentacles}} grab Dialga, Palkia, and Cyrus into it.

Later, Cyrus appears in the Distortion World, still alive after the battle on Spear Pillar. He is discovered by Diamond, who had been sent there after being hit by one of {{p|Giratina}}'s attacks. After explaining how he ended up there, Diamond asks Cyrus if he knew if there was any way to defeat Giratina. He takes Diamond to an area where Giratina had kept Dialga and Palkia trapped after it dragged them into the Distortion World. Cyrus reveals that his defeat at the Spear Pillar helped him see the error of his ways and he now wants to support Diamond's wishes. Together, they use their Pokémon to break Dialga and Palkia from the mineral that had them captured, freeing them in the process. Afterward, they ride the dragons over to where Pearl is, surprising him due to him not expecting Cyrus to be helping them.

As the battle between the legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. Cyrus listens to everyone realize that even though humans and Pokémon make mistakes, they'll work together to try to fix it. This gives Cyrus a sense of gratitude in his heart, which causes {{p|Shaymin}} to fly into his arms and later join the battle.

After Charon is defeated, Cyrus and his Commanders emerge from the Distortion World unharmed. Charon tries to lie to Cyrus by claiming that he intended to gather the legendary Pokémon for Team Galactic's sake. Cyrus reaches down to Charon, which Saturn and Mars think it means he's going to pinch him. However, Cyrus only takes his machine, and praises Charon for his technological genius. The records reveal that he has been using it since the battle on the Spear Pillar, which angers Saturn into figuring out that he was attempting to use the machine to control Dialga and Palkia into opening a hole to the Distortion World, to which Charon denies.

Cyrus speaks to his four Commanders once more and reveals that he is disbanding Team Galactic. He begins to leave and tells them to do whatever they wish, but an angry Jupiter tells him that without Team Galactic, she, Mars, and Saturn have nowhere else to go. Listening to her wishes, Cyrus takes Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter away with him and thanks Diamond, Pearl, Platinum for their help.

===In the [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]] manga===
[[File:Cyrus DPA.png|thumb|right|Cyrus in Diamond and Pearl Adventure]]
Cyrus is first seen watching a Contest being performed by [[Mitsumi]] in [[Hearthome City]]. He introduces himself as a friend of hers to [[Hareta]] and then leaves after asking Hareta to give her his regards on her performance.

Later, at [[Celestic Town]], Cyrus along with two of his commanders, [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]] arrive at the ruins after Hareta manages to throw a bomb they planted into a safe area. Here, Cyrus introduces himself to Hareta as the leader of Team Galactic and reveals that he is also searching for the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Dialga}}. After revealing his plans, Cyrus makes his leave while Hareta follows him and Mitsumi is left behind to battle Jupiter and Saturn.

After catching up to him, Cyrus offers to let Hareta join him in his operation; Hareta refuses and they begin battling. The two have an intense battle and eventually, Hareta is knocked off of the bridge they were fighting on and is sent into the water below. Cyrus soon mulls over his victory but Hareta suddenly returns from the water and defeats his {{p|Weavile}} with a {{a|Torrent}} powered {{m|Surf}}. Suddenly, Cyrus realizes that he is starting enjoy their battle; in a fit of rage, Cyrus commands his {{p|Gyarados}} to use {{m|Giga Impact}}, destroying the bridge and sending Hareta into water once again. Cyrus then leaves while questioning how he lost control over himself in their battle.

Later, at [[Lake Valor]], Cyrus arrives after Saturn is defeated by Hareta. Disappointed by his failure, Cyrus unceremoniously fires Saturn from Team Galactic and tells him to leave. Noticing that Hareta is still alive after previously defeating him, he is challenged to a battle by the boy and they begin battling. Cyrus almost defeats Hareta again but he quickly loses his advantage once Hareta sets up a well planned move. Before his Gyarados can be defeated by a {{m|Thunder}} fired from Hareta's {{p|Luxio}}, Saturn saves it with his {{p|Rhyperior}}'s {{a|Lightningrod}} and begs for another chance. Suddenly, Hareta defeats Saturn with a {{a|Torrent}} powered-up {{m|Surf}} from his Piplup; Cyrus takes the unconscious Saturn away and states that their battle was a draw.

Later, while Jupiter battles Mitsumi at Lake Acuity, Cyrus sends a phone call to Jupiter in which he requests that Mitsumi comes to him. It is eventually revealed that Cyrus had picked up Mitsumi when she was a child and raised her to be Team Galactic's greatest warrior. By holding her beloved {{p|Eevee}} as hostage, Cyrus forces Mitsumi to once again fight for him and makes her battle Hareta. As they battle, Cyrus coldly tries to convince Mitsumi that she is alone in the world and that she only belongs in Team Galactic. Eventually, Hareta manages to break through to Mitsumi and convinces her to fight as a real Trainer instead of a member of Team Galactic.

After Mitsumi is defeated, Cyrus leads Hareta to the room where he holds the three Pokémon of spirit, {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. Hareta manages to free them from their prison, but Cyrus managed to complete the item he was creating with the three Pokémon, the [[Red Chain]]. Cyrus assumes that Hareta hates him for his actions but is shocked to only find that he pities him instead. Cyrus gives Hareta a Master Ball and tells him to go to Mt. Coronet where they can have one last battle; he then leaves the exploding Galactic Building with Hareta still inside.

Later, at the Spear Pillar, after waiting for the return of Hareta, Cyrus assumes he had died in the explosion and goes on with his plan. With the Red Chain, Cyrus finally summons the Pokémon of Time, {{p|Dialga}} and takes control of it. With Dialga's control over time, Cyrus easily defeats Hareta's Pokémon and he announces his plan to destroy everything to start the world anew. Cyrus commands Dialga to send the world back to its beginning, causing everything revert back to the start of the universe. [[Hareta's Empoleon]] attempts to sacrifices itself to stop Cyrus, against Hareta's wishes, but is stopped by the [[lake guardians]] who saves them and breaks the Red Chain, freeing Dialga from Cyrus's control.

With Dialga freed, Cyrus has been defeated, but suddenly, the other god Pokémon, {{p|Palkia}}, arrives. While Dialga and Palkia fight, Cyrus witnesses Hareta, Mitsumi, and the Gym Leaders attempt to try to stop them, only to fail. Cyrus states that while the imperfect world will end, nothing will remain to replace it. Mitsumi states that Hareta won't let that happen because he is fighting for all of them. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter come to help them fight Dialga and Palkia; this causes Cyrus to tell them how to defeat the two dragons.

Hareta uses Cyrus's plan and manages to get Dialga to use {{m|Roar of Time}}, stopping it momentarily. With Dialga frozen briefly, Cyrus and the others command their Pokémon to attack Dialga, stopping the fight between the two gods. After the events end, Cyrus disappears along with his commanders. Some time afterwards, Cyrus is captured by Charon, who takes over Team Galactic. When Kaisei accidentally breaks into Cyrus' prison cell in the Team Galactic HQ, he offers to free Cyrus, but Cyrus turns him down, saying that he is waiting to see what Charon plans to do with Team Galactic.

During the battle against Charon in the Team Galactic HQ, Mitsumi and the three Commanders free Cyrus, and they set out to the Distortion World to fight Charon. Cyrus and the others, seeing the battle against Giratina in the forest arrive to assist, and Cyrus is last seen fighting Giratina with the others.

Later, when Charon escapes to Stark Mountain hoping to capture Heatran, Agent Looker stops him, claiming that Cyrus has disbanded Team Galactic.

==Names==
His Japanese name, {{wp|Akagi}}, is a common surname in Japan, which may indicate that, like [[Giovanni]], his name in Japan is merely his last name, leaving his first unknown. "Akagi" means "red castle", "red tree", or "red future", the last of which may reference the many deaths that would have taken place if his scheme had come to fruition. It may also refer to the [[Red Chain]] which Cyrus needs to summon the legendary Pokémon, {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{p|Palkia}}, at the [[Spear Pillar]]. It could also be in reference to Planet X, also known as the Red Planet, Nibiru, Wormwood, Quetzalcoatl, and many more names. It is an apocalyptic conspiracy, but there are many different theories about what exactly it is. There is also a volcano called Akagi in the real-world [[wp:Kantō region|Kanto region]] of Japan.

The majority of Cyrus's localized names refer to the Sun; this fits in with the Commanders' planetary naming scheme, and may be a reference to how Cyrus would figuratively hold the Sun's position as center of his new world. The Korean and Chinese names contain both a reference to red, like the Japanese one, and to the Sun, like the localized Western ones.

==Trivia==
* The ''aka'' that appears in his Japanese name may refer to the color red, as a counterpart to [[Cynthia]], whose Japanese name refers to ''shiro'', white.
* In the games, Cyrus's Pokémon are all either of {{type|Dark}} and/or {{type|Flying}} (his Honchkrow is both). Also all of Cyrus's Pokémon are dual-types, and they all have a weakness to {{t|Rock}}.
* Until [[Charon]]'s introduction, Cyrus was the only one of the four major characters of Team Galactic that does not share a name with a planet. Charon's Japanese namesake, {{wp|Pluto}}, is a {{wp|dwarf planet}}, but was considered a planet between its 1930 discovery and 2006. {{wp|Charon (moon)|Charon}} is the largest of Pluto's five moons. This makes Cyrus the only named Team Galactic member who is not named for a solar system object (though his English and German names are derived from one).
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] to appear in the opening of a {{game3|Platinum|game}}.
* Although there are only three red gems visible on each of {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, Cyrus will recreate the Red Chain as many times as the player loses to him.
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous team]] to have his age confirmed. [[Looker]] confirms his age in the Team Galactic Headquarters in [[Veilstone City]].
* Cyrus shares {{p|Honchkrow|a Pokémon}} with Giovanni, another leader of a villainous gang, though the latter was never shown with one until the release of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
** Additionally, {{adv|Silver}}, a counterpart to Giovanni's {{ga|Silver|own son}}, also possesses a Honchkrow.
*** Silver and his counterparts own every single Pokémon Cyrus owns in the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl versions: Weavile, Honchkrow and Gyarados in Pokémon Adventures and Crobat in the games, as well as Weavile's pre-evolution, Sneasel.
* In both the original Japanese version and English dub of the anime, Cyrus's voice actors have previously portrayed leaders of other villainous teams. [[Sean Schemmel]] played [[Team Aqua]] head [[Archie]], and [[Kenta Miyake]] also voices {{an|Giovanni}}, the boss of [[Team Rocket]].

'''Dr. Yung''' (Japanese: '''ドクター・ユング''' ''Dr. Yung'') is a scientist from the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

{{spoilers}}

==Character==
Yung is shown to have a combination of great intellect and battling skill, but still has a sort of mysterious air about himself. However, it is later shown that Yung is corrupt and a sociopath. He is generally incapable of feeling genuine emotion and is shown to be megalomaniacal, power-hungry, delusional, embittered, cruel, heartless, and cynical.

In his true persona, he is one of the few characters in the entire series to be depicted as purely and irredeemably evil. He has little concern for life, whether natural or artificial, and is seen to think nothing of casually attempting to kill both humans and Pokémon repeatedly.

==History==
Dr. Yung invented the [[Mirage Pokémon]] system. This appears to be a project he spent many years on, as {{an|Professor Oak}} acknowledges.

He challenges {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to battle with him using a Mirage {{p|Aggron}} his system has generated. {{an|Misty}} eagerly accepts his challenge and uses {{TP|Misty|her Staryu|Staryu}}, but she lost easily when the Aggron showed off one of Yung's system's features - the ability to use any attack, in this case {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Ash challenged him next with {{AP|Pikachu}}, but before the battle could begin, the '''Mirage Master''' (Japanese: '''ミスター・ミラージュ''' ''Mr. Mirage'') captured both Yung and Oak by commandeering the system.

[[File:Mirage Master.png|thumb|right|As the Mirage Master]]

While Ash and his friends attempted to mount a rescue mission, Mirage Master tortured Oak with the intent of gaining the access password to Oak's laboratory database. Revealing his insanity to the protagonists, he spoke of his contempt for the flaws inherent in every Pokémon and of his desire to create a Pokémon free of these flaws. He is especially enraged when a Mirage {{p|Mew}} appears, which he declared a 'flawed specimen.'

Oak initially resisted the torture and refused to give the password. As a backup plan, Mirage Master used some of his Mirage Pokémon to capture Pikachu after ambushing it. He then strapped it to a table and used a special machine to scan its memories for data, causing it great pain. This finally broke Oak's resolve, and he surrendered the password, "{{game|Red and Green|s|REDGREEN}}." Using a combination of his new access to Oak's laboratory's database and his ability to hack the servers of [[Pokémon Center]]s worldwide, Mirage Master began forming his perfect Pokémon.

When Ash, and later Misty and {{an|May}} arrived to confront him, Mirage Master completed the experiment, creating a Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}}. He demonstrated its power by instantly defeating all of the other Mirage Pokémon, then he attempted to kill Oak, who had to defend himself with a {{p|Dragonite}}. Oak urged the group to escape, becoming resigned to the fact that they could not save Yung, but Mirage Master had another trick up his sleeve - he deployed missiles to create a much larger field for the Mirage Pokémon to move around in, allowing him to unleash his Mirage Mewtwo on the world. To aid in this endeavor he also summoned a Mirage {{p|Entei}}, Mirage {{p|Articuno}} and Mirage {{p|Zapdos}}.

[[File:Evil Yung.png|thumb|right|Yung unmasked]]

Later, after the Mirage Master declared his Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}} to be the result of "many years of hard work", {{an|Professor Oak}} successfully unmasked him to actually ''be'' Dr. Yung. It was revealed that Yung had been a student at the Pokémon Institute when he invented the Mirage System, but he was expelled because his research was considered cruel, thus leaving him bitter and hungry for revenge. He battled against the group using Mewtwo and easily took the upper hand, but with some timely help from the Mirage {{p|Mew}} that Yung had declared a "flawed specimen", [[Ash's Pikachu]] was able to defeat it using {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

After being defeated, he escaped into his burning lab. Oak tried to pursue him, but falling iron blocked the entrance, and Yung was never seen again.

==Mirage Pokémon==
In the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', he used these mirage Pokémon:

Ash his friends try to stop him with Ash using Pikachu, Oak using {{p|Dragonite}}, Misty using {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and May using her [[May's Blaziken|Combusken]] in the process. However, Mewtwo defeats the latter three leaving Ash and Pikachu to take care of it and Dr. Yung on their own. With the Mirage Mew's help of holding back Mewtwo, Pikachu was able to defeat the Mirage Mewtwo (and Mew as well), thus destroying the systems.

It, like other Mirage Pokémon, got destroyed after Pikachu's {{m|Volt Tackle}} defeated Mewtwo and destroyed the system.

'''J's Salamence''' (Japanese: '''Jのボーマンダ''' ''J's Bohmander'') is one of the Pokémon owned by [[J|Pokémon Hunter J]], as well as her most used.

==History==
[[File:J and Salamence.png|thumb|left|200px|J and her Salamence]]
Salamence made its debut in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''; the same episode as its {{pkmn|Trainer}}. It mostly serves as J's mode of transportation while she is not in her airship. It is also frequently used in battle.

In ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]'', J used Salamence and her {{p|Drapion}} to battle [[Ash's Pikachu]] and [[Gary's Blastoise]].

J tends to use Salamence for destructive purposes as well. In ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]'', she commanded it to destroy a forest with its {{m|Flamethrower}} to smoke out the {{p|Riolu}} she wanted to capture.

Later, in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'', J used its {{m|Hyper Beam}} to knock down the rock, ice, and steel pillars inside the [[Snowpoint Temple]] and Flamethrower to awaken {{p|Regigigas}}. Salamence is also able to hold its own in battle against [[legendary Pokémon]] such as Regigigas and also could evade a volley of {{m|Hyper Beam}}s from Brandon's {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regirock}}, {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Registeel}}, and {{DL|Brandon's Regis|Regice}} with ease.

In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', it was used by J to get {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Uxie}}, {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Mesprit}} and {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Azelf}} for [[Team Galactic]]. What happened to Salamence after the destruction of J's ship is unknown.

It appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy with J riding it.

==Personality and characteristics==
Salamence appears to have no trouble in following J's orders, as evidenced in ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part One]]'' when it was commanded by J to use {{m|Flamethrower}} on a forest just so J could capture a {{p|Riolu}} for profit. In many of the battles Salamence partook, it barely took damage from any attacks coming from its opponents and had quick movements that allowed it to not get hit by them as well. Similar to {{an|Giovanni}} with his {{TP|Giovanni|Persian}}, J appears to value Salamence very much that it was used more often.

==Moves used==

'''J''' (Japanese: '''Ｊ''' ''J''), frequently referred to as '''Pokémon Hunter J''', or '''Jay''' in some dubs, is a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunter]] who, with the help from [[J's henchmen|her henchmen]], captures and steals {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and sells them requested by [[J's clients|her clients]] for a profit on the {{wp|black market}}. She first appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''.

==History==
In ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]'', she first stole [[Melodi]]'s {{p|Gardevoir}}. Thinking {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TRT}}'s {{MTR}} would be worth a sizable amount of money, she stole them, too, thus forcing Ash to join forces with [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to rescue them. Following a brief confrontation with J, they managed to sneak into J's airborne base and rescue their Pokémon and all the others she had stolen, before returning them to their rightful Trainers. Though several of her henchmen have been captured by [[Officer Jenny]], J remained at large. Jessie, James and Meowth especially seem to harbor a grudge against her ever since she kidnapped Meowth.

J appeared again in ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]''. This time, she was on a mission to steal a group of {{p|Shieldon}}, but was foiled by Ash and {{ashfr}}, with help from [[Gary Oak|Gary]]. Her client cut off the deal to obtain the Shieldon, since Officer Jenny was near. After telling Ash and {{ashfr}} not to get in her way next time, she told her second-in-command to establish radio contact with their employer, in order to tell him that they would not be doing service with him again.

She appeared again during the two-part episode ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]]'' ''[[DP072|and Two]]'' where she tried to steal a {{m|Aura Sphere|special}} {{p|Riolu}} for her client. She successfully captured it and left after receiving her payment, but the Riolu was later rescued from the client, who was arrested.

She also appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'' where she traveled to the [[Snowpoint Temple]] and forcefully awakened {{p|Regigigas}} at the request of a client. Despite this, she was unable to capture it, due mostly to the efforts of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and [[Brandon's Regis|his Pokémon]], and she immediately withdrew from the area when her client decided to cancel the deal.

[[File:J glasses sinking.png|200px|right|thumb|J's glasses shown outside the sinking ship]]
J appeared again in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', where she was hired by [[Team Galactic]] to catch {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. She also appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', attempting to carry out the task of capturing them. Although she did succeed in capturing the [[Lake guardians]], her ship was hit by two {{m|Future Sight}} attacks used by Uxie and Mesprit directly before she captured them, which in her overconfidence she had forgotten. As a result, her ship crashed into [[Lake Valor]] and was sucked into a whirlpool while she and her crew members were on board. Once the ship was underwater, the protective glass broke and the ship was flooded with water, causing it to explode. It is currently unknown if J, her Pokémon, or any of her crew survived.


She appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy riding her Salamence.

==Character==
J is a person who is willing to do anything to capture Pokémon for her clients even if it means injuring people or Pokémon, easily revealing her to be ruthless, relentless, and cruel. In fact, in her debut episode, she sacrificed some of her [[J's henchmen|henchmen]] to [[Officer Jenny]] without hesitation or remorse, emphasizing her intensely independent, sociopathic, greedy and callous nature. She has no honor, decency or regard for any form of life. The only thing that matters to her is money. She is one of the very few characters (including the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] and [[Grings Kodai]]) in the anime who is purely evil. However, she tends to underestimate her opponents when on the verge of victory, which often leads to her defeat and seemingly her final downfall.

Ash fought J's Drapion with his Aipom and Turtwig, but both Pokémon never stood a chance. Drapion didn't take damage from either Aipom or Turtwig's attacks, and struck the Pokémon with its {{m|Cross Poison}}. In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]'', J used her Drapion again in order to harm Ash without warning. It wrapped its claws tightly around Ash's midsection and began to squeeze him. Ash responded to this by kicking it in the face, making it one of the only Pokémon Ash ever intentionally hurt.

Drapion's known moves are {{m|Poison Sting}}, {{m|Cross Poison}}, and {{m|Pin Missile}}.}}

===Gadgets===
* J has what looks like some sort of cannon attached to her arm that is able to turn Pokémon and humans into stone. The effects are permanent unless Pokémon are placed in a special case or revived with {{m|Hidden Power}}. In ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship]]'', it was destroyed when Regigigas reflected her Salamence's {{m|Dragon Pulse}} back at her. The device had been repaired or replaced by the time the events of ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' took place.
* She also has cases for those Pokémon turned to stone which can adjust how much the body is covered with stone.
* Her goggles also have many abilities, like detecting heat and {{m|camouflage}}d or {{m|transform}}ed Pokémon.

===Transportation===
* She has six-wheeled vans driven by her henchmen that can shoot out nets and have retractable arms.
* She travels throughout the Pokémon world in an airship which also serves as her hideout. This ship is equipped with a stealth cloaking device that can render the ship invisible which helps in deterring pursuers, mounting surprise attacks, and making her business dealings more private and less vulnerable to outside interference. It is also capable of firing lasers from its front and has a bottom-mounted cannon that shoots a gum-like substance for restraining and capturing Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* Unlike most villains in the anime, it seems as though J is actually trying to ''murder'' Ash, not just get rid of him. This is shown in ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part Two]]'', when she commands her Salamence to burn the forest around him and use {{m|Hyper Beam}} directly on him, orders her Drapion to squeeze him tight with its claws, and ejects him from her ship from a great height.
* J is the only recurring villain in the anime to not be a member of a villainous team.

'''J''' (Japanese: '''Ｊ''' ''J''), frequently referred to as '''Pokémon Hunter J''', or '''Jay''' in some dubs, is a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunter]] who, with the help from [[J's henchmen|her henchmen]], captures and steals {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and sells them requested by [[J's clients|her clients]] for a profit on the {{wp|black market}}. She first appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''.

==History==
In ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]'', she first stole [[Melodi]]'s {{p|Gardevoir}}. Thinking {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TRT}}'s {{MTR}} would be worth a sizable amount of money, she stole them, too, thus forcing Ash to join forces with [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to rescue them. Following a brief confrontation with J, they managed to sneak into J's airborne base and rescue their Pokémon and all the others she had stolen, before returning them to their rightful Trainers. Though several of her henchmen have been captured by [[Officer Jenny]], J remained at large. Jessie, James and Meowth especially seem to harbor a grudge against her ever since she kidnapped Meowth.

J appeared again in ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]''. This time, she was on a mission to steal a group of {{p|Shieldon}}, but was foiled by Ash and {{ashfr}}, with help from [[Gary Oak|Gary]]. Her client cut off the deal to obtain the Shieldon, since Officer Jenny was near. After telling Ash and {{ashfr}} not to get in her way next time, she told her second-in-command to establish radio contact with their employer, in order to tell him that they would not be doing service with him again.

She appeared again during the two-part episode ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]]'' ''[[DP072|and Two]]'' where she tried to steal a {{m|Aura Sphere|special}} {{p|Riolu}} for her client. She successfully captured it and left after receiving her payment, but the Riolu was later rescued from the client, who was arrested.

She also appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'' where she traveled to the [[Snowpoint Temple]] and forcefully awakened {{p|Regigigas}} at the request of a client. Despite this, she was unable to capture it, due mostly to the efforts of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and [[Brandon's Regis|his Pokémon]], and she immediately withdrew from the area when her client decided to cancel the deal.

[[File:J glasses sinking.png|200px|right|thumb|J's glasses shown outside the sinking ship]]
J appeared again in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', where she was hired by [[Team Galactic]] to catch {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. She also appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', attempting to carry out the task of capturing them. Although she did succeed in capturing the [[Lake guardians]], her ship was hit by two {{m|Future Sight}} attacks used by Uxie and Mesprit directly before she captured them, which in her overconfidence she had forgotten. As a result, her ship crashed into [[Lake Valor]] and was sucked into a whirlpool while she and her crew members were on board. Once the ship was underwater, the protective glass broke and the ship was flooded with water, causing it to explode. It is currently unknown if J, her Pokémon, or any of her crew survived.


She appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy riding her Salamence.

==Character==
J is a person who is willing to do anything to capture Pokémon for her clients even if it means injuring people or Pokémon, easily revealing her to be ruthless, relentless, and cruel. In fact, in her debut episode, she sacrificed some of her [[J's henchmen|henchmen]] to [[Officer Jenny]] without hesitation or remorse, emphasizing her intensely independent, sociopathic, greedy and callous nature. She has no honor, decency or regard for any form of life. The only thing that matters to her is money. She is one of the very few characters (including the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] and [[Grings Kodai]]) in the anime who is purely evil. However, she tends to underestimate her opponents when on the verge of victory, which often leads to her defeat and seemingly her final downfall.

'''Dr. Yung''' (Japanese: '''ドクター・ユング''' ''Dr. Yung'') is a scientist from the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

==Mirage Pokémon==
In the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', he used these mirage Pokémon:

{{TrainerPoké

|vajp=Katsuyuki Konishi
|desc={{p|Mewtwo}} is a Mirage Pokémon who was created as a result of data being extracted by many computers worldwide to Dr. Yung's castle. Ash his friends try to stop him with Ash using Pikachu, Oak using {{p|Dragonite}}, Misty using {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and May using her [[May's Blaziken|Combusken]] in the process. However, Mewtwo defeats the latter three leaving Ash and Pikachu to take care of it and Dr. Yung on their own. With the Mirage Mew's help of holding back Mewtwo, Pikachu was able to defeat the Mirage Mewtwo (and Mew as well), thus destroying the systems.

Mewtwo's used moves are {{m|Shadow Ball}}, {{m|Flamethrower}}{{tt|*|Used by morphing hand into Arcanine head}}, {{m|SolarBeam}}{{tt|*|Used by morphing hands into Tropius heads}}, {{m|Hyper Beam}}{{tt|*|Used by morphing arm into Rayquaza head}}, {{m|Hydro Pump}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}}, {{m|Bullet Seed}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Psybeam}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}}, {{m|Ice Beam}}, {{m|Iron Tail}}, {{m|Quick Attack}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}} and {{m|Mega Punch}}.}}

'''Dr. Yung''' (Japanese: '''ドクター・ユング''' ''Dr. Yung'') is a scientist from the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

==Character==
Dr. Yung invented the [[Mirage Pokémon]] system. This appears to be a project he spent many years on, as {{an|Professor Oak}} acknowledges. Yung is shown to have a combination of great intellect and battling skill, but still has a sort of mysterious air about himself. However, later in the episode, it is shown that Yung is corrupt and a sociopath. He is generally incapable of feeling genuine emotion and is shown to be megalomaniacal, power-hungry, delusional, embittered, cruel, heartless, and cynical.

He challenges {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to battle with him using a Mirage {{p|Aggron}} his system has generated. {{an|Misty}} eagerly accepts his challenge and uses {{TP|Misty|her Staryu|Staryu}}, but she lost easily when the Aggron showed off one of Yung's system's features - the ability to use any attack, in this case {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Ash challenged him next with {{AP|Pikachu}}, but before the battle could begin, the '''Mirage Master''' (Japanese: '''ミスター・ミラージュ''' ''Mr. Mirage'') captured both Yung and Oak by commandeering the system.

[[File:Mirage Master.png|thumb|right|As the Mirage Master]]

While Ash and his friends attempted to mount a rescue mission, Mirage Master tortured Oak with the intent of gaining the access password to Oak's laboratory database. Revealing his insanity to the protagonists, he spoke of his contempt for the flaws inherent in every Pokémon and of his desire to create a Pokémon free of these flaws. He is especially enraged when a Mirage {{p|Mew}} appears, which he declared a 'flawed specimen.'

Oak initially resisted the torture and refused to give the password. As a backup plan, Mirage Master used some of his Mirage Pokémon to capture Pikachu after ambushing it. He then strapped it to a table and used a special machine to scan its memories for data, causing it great pain. This finally broke Oak's resolve, and he surrendered the password, "{{game|Red and Green|s|REDGREEN}}." Using a combination of his new access to Oak's laboratory's database and his ability to hack the servers of [[Pokémon Center]]s worldwide, Mirage Master began forming his perfect Pokémon.

When Ash, and later Misty and {{an|May}} arrived to confront him, Mirage Master completed the experiment, creating a Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}}. He demonstrated its power by instantly defeating all of the other Mirage Pokémon, then he attempted to kill Oak, who had to defend himself with a {{p|Dragonite}}. Oak urged the group to escape, becoming resigned to the fact that they could not save Yung, but Mirage Master had another trick up his sleeve - he deployed missiles to create a much larger field for the Mirage Pokémon to move around in, allowing him to unleash his Mirage Mewtwo on the world. To aid in this endeavor he also summoned a Mirage {{p|Entei}}, Mirage {{p|Articuno}} and Mirage {{p|Zapdos}}.

[[File:Evil Yung.png|thumb|right|Yung unmasked]]

Later, after the Mirage Master declared his Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}} to be the result of "many years of hard work", {{an|Professor Oak}} successfully unmasked him to actually ''be'' Dr. Yung. It was revealed that Yung had been a student at the Pokémon Institute when he invented the Mirage System, but he was expelled because his research was considered cruel, thus leaving him bitter and hungry for revenge. He battled against the group using Mewtwo and easily took the upper hand, but with some timely help from the Mirage {{p|Mew}} that Yung had declared a "flawed specimen", [[Ash's Pikachu]] was able to defeat it using {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

After being defeated, he escaped into his burning lab. Oak tried to pursue him, but falling iron blocked the entrance, where he dies.

==Mirage Pokémon==
In the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', he used these mirage Pokémon:

|desc={{p|Mewtwo}} is a Mirage Pokémon who was created as a result of data being extracted by many computers worldwide to Dr. Yung's castle. Ash his friends try to stop him with Ash using Pikachu, Oak using {{p|Dragonite}}, Misty using {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and May using her [[May's Blaziken|Combusken]] in the process. However, Mewtwo defeats the latter three leaving Ash and Pikachu to take care of it and Dr. Yung on their own. With the Mirage Mew's help of holding back Mewtwo, Pikachu was able to defeat the Mirage Mewtwo (and Mew as well), thus destroying the systems.

'''Dr. Yung''' (Japanese: '''ドクター・ユング''' ''Dr. Yung'') is a scientist from the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

==Character==
Dr. Yung invented the [[Mirage Pokémon]] system. This appears to be a project he spent many years on, as {{an|Professor Oak}} acknowledges. Yung is shown to have a combination of great intellect and battling skill, but still has a sort of mysterious air about himself. However, later in the episode, it is shown that Yung is corrupt and a sociopath. He is generally incapable of feeling genuine emotion and is shown to be megalomaniacal, power-hungry, delusional, embittered, cruel, heartless, and cynical.

He challenges {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to battle with him using a Mirage {{p|Aggron}} his system has generated. {{an|Misty}} eagerly accepts his challenge and uses {{TP|Misty|her Staryu|Staryu}}, but she lost easily when the Aggron showed off one of Yung's system's features - the ability to use any attack, in this case {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Ash challenged him next with {{AP|Pikachu}}, but before the battle could begin, the '''Mirage Master''' (Japanese: '''ミスター・ミラージュ''' ''Mr. Mirage'') captured both Yung and Oak by commandeering the system.

[[File:Mirage Master.png|thumb|right|As the Mirage Master]]

While Ash and his friends attempted to mount a rescue mission, Mirage Master tortured Oak with the intent of gaining the access password to Oak's laboratory database. Revealing his insanity to the protagonists, he spoke of his contempt for the flaws inherent in every Pokémon and of his desire to create a Pokémon free of these flaws. He is especially enraged when a Mirage {{p|Mew}} appears, which he declared a 'flawed specimen.'

Oak initially resisted the torture and refused to give the password. As a backup plan, Mirage Master used some of his Mirage Pokémon to capture Pikachu after ambushing it. He then strapped it to a table and used a special machine to scan its memories for data, causing it great pain. This finally broke Oak's resolve, and he surrendered the password, "{{game|Red and Green|s|REDGREEN}}." Using a combination of his new access to Oak's laboratory's database and his ability to hack the servers of [[Pokémon Center]]s worldwide, Mirage Master began forming his perfect Pokémon.

When Ash, and later Misty and {{an|May}} arrived to confront him, Mirage Master completed the experiment, creating a Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}}. He demonstrated its power by instantly defeating all of the other Mirage Pokémon, then he attempted to kill Oak, who had to defend himself with a {{p|Dragonite}}. Oak urged the group to escape, becoming resigned to the fact that they could not save Yung, but Mirage Master had another trick up his sleeve - he deployed missiles to create a much larger field for the Mirage Pokémon to move around in, allowing him to unleash his Mirage Mewtwo on the world. To aid in this endeavor he also summoned a Mirage {{p|Entei}}, Mirage {{p|Articuno}} and Mirage {{p|Zapdos}}.

[[File:Evil Yung.png|thumb|right|Yung unmasked]]

Later, after the Mirage Master declared his Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}} to be the result of "many years of hard work", {{an|Professor Oak}} successfully unmasked him to actually ''be'' Dr. Yung. It was revealed that Yung had been a student at the Pokémon Institute when he invented the Mirage System, but he was expelled because his research was considered cruel, thus leaving him bitter and hungry for revenge. He battled against the group using Mewtwo and easily took the upper hand, but with some timely help from the Mirage {{p|Mew}} that Yung had declared a "flawed specimen", [[Ash's Pikachu]] was able to defeat it using {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

After being defeated, he escaped into his burning lab. Oak tried to pursue him, but falling iron blocked the entrance, and Yung was never seen again.

==Mirage Pokémon==
In the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', he used these mirage Pokémon:

|desc={{p|Mewtwo}} is a Mirage Pokémon who was created as a result of data being extracted by many computers worldwide to Dr. Yung's castle. Ash his friends try to stop him with Ash using Pikachu, Oak using {{p|Dragonite}}, Misty using {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and May using her [[May's Blaziken|Combusken]] in the process. However, Mewtwo defeats the latter three leaving Ash and Pikachu to take care of it and Dr. Yung on their own. With the Mirage Mew's help of holding back Mewtwo, Pikachu was able to defeat the Mirage Mewtwo (and Mew as well), thus destroying the systems.

'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is the boss of [[Team Galactic]], a man aiming to create a world without spirit.

==In the games==
As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the nihilistic, god-complexed main antagonist of the [[Sinnoh]] games, with the ultimate goal of summoning {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} in order to destroy the universe so that he may start it again as its god. Born and raised in [[Sunyshore City]], he was known to be a good, albeit asocial, student, and so preferred the company of machines over humans and Pokémon. Despite being such a good student, however, he did not live up to his parents' expectations, and so felt rejected. Sometime after this, he decided emotions were the source of all strife in the world, and that only the elimination of emotions, along with spirit, was the only cure to fighting in the world, which lead to his plan and actions during the storyline in Sinnoh. His grandfather, who lives on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}} in {{game|Platinum}}, regrets not taking him in during his time of need.

==={{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}===
The player first meets him in [[Mt. Coronet]], but he does not battle, nor give his name. Later on, the two men guarding [[Lake Valor]] will mention his name in passing, though Cyrus himself is not identified until he introduces himself after the {{player}} defeats a {{tc|Galactic Grunt}} and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]].

After his defeat at the Spear Pillar, Cyrus claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]].

====Quotes====
=====Mt. Coronet=====
:''"According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded.. There should have been no strife. But what became of that world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has appeared... This world is being ruined by it...I find the state of things to be deplorable..."''

=====Celestic Town=====
:''"There appears to have been an insignificant struggle here. Everyone should step back and view things from a bigger perspective. Yes, a bigger perspective, one that is on a universal scale. My name is Cyrus. I seek the power to create a new world, a world without strife. However that power seems to be unavailable here... We've met before, yes? It was at Mt. Coronet. If you discover any power derived from the legends of Sinnoh, inform me. For that power is what I need to create my new world."''

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
* Before battle
:''"I see. You must be the Trainer I've been hearing about. The foolhardy one that's trying to stand up to Team Galactic. Although I'd hardly expected to see that the Trainer is a mere child. I'd heard that our Commanders had a rough time with you... I know why you're here, I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead, I couldn't care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing of them."''

:''"But I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they not? But still you came to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and lacking human heart. You were compelled to come here by vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last Pokémon."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"I see... I may lose if this pace continues..."''

* When defeated
:''"Interesting and quite curious."''

* After being defeated
:''"I see. You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion toward Pokémon. How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless sentimentality. But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognize that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward."''

:''"The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own. If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. That's correct. Mt. Coronet. Where you and I first met. I will ascend the mountain to its peak and put an end to everything... No. I will bring about a new beginning for everything..."''

=====Spear Pillar=====
:''"Now all will end. And everything will begin. With this [[Red Chain]] I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash all your power for me... {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}/{{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}} the mythical Pokémon and the master of time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}}! This will bring about the destruction of all things. With everything gone, there will be no fighting and no strife. Can you feel time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}} distorting? Only I can choose to stop it. This is the mythical Pokémon that created Sinnoh! Dialga{{sup/4|D}}/Palkia{{sup/4|P}} the ancient deity of time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}}! This world cannot be molded into the ultimate world I seek! It's far easier to create an entirely new world than to change this one! A new world in which I am the ruler of all things! I shall become a deity!"''

:''"Oh! Dialga{{sup/4|D}}/Palkia{{sup/4|P}}... This is... Fantastic! Beautiful! It's the creating of a new galaxy! My new world! ... Wh-what?!"''

* Before battle
:''"The Red Chain! It crumbled away to nothing?! But why? Why would {{p|Mesprit}}, the Pokémon of Lake Verity, appear by your side? But never mind that! It's all destroyed! My galaxy is gone! I won't allow this... I will capture those three again and craft another Red Chain! But before I even think about that, I'm going to completely crush you!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I admit that you have pushed me to this extreme."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"This... this cannot be! It's not possible that I lose!"''

* When defeated
:''"I won't admit this! The power spoken of in mythology... I didn't just make it obey me, I made it my own!"''

* After being defeated
:''"What is truly ultimate to you? What do you consider perfection? The most important thing... What shines the brightest... Telling you is meaningless. But I will not give up. I will become a deity one day... And I will make the ultimate mine..."''

==={{game|Platinum}}===
[[File:CyrusPlatopen.png|thumb|256px|Cyrus in the opening of Platinum]]
Cyrus has, in a way, more of a role in {{v2|Platinum}}, as he is first met at [[Lake Verity]] near the start of the game. He is also met in front of the statue in [[Eterna City]]. Unlike before, he is first battled in the ruins of [[Celestic Town]]. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar, he is taken by {{p|Giratina}} to the [[Distortion World]]. After the player battles Giratina, Cyrus stays in the Distortion World, still vowing to create a world without spirit.

====Quotes====
=====Lake Verity=====
:''"...The flowing time... The expanding space... I will make it all mine one day... Cyrus is my name. Remember it... Until then, sleep while you can, legendary Pokémon of the lake bed...."''

:''"Allow me to pass. Step aside."''

=====Eterna City=====
:''"...So, this is Eterna's Pokémon statue... Shaping our world are time and space in an intertwining spiral. Revered in Sinnoh are the Pokémon of time and space... Sinnoh's myth... Its truth needs investigation..."''

:''"...Pardon me. Stand aside."''

:''"..."''

=====Mt. Coronet=====
:''"According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded... There should have been no strife. But what became of the world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has spread... This world is being ruined by it... I find this state of affairs deplorable..."''

=====Celestic Town=====
* Before battle
:''"I would like to know more about that legend, if you will."''

:''"My name is Cyrus. I want to put an end to pointless strife and hostility. I am seeking the power to create the ideal world. Thus, I want you to answer. The world today can't change because the [[Lake guardians|three Pokémon]] keep it in balance. Is that what you are saying?"''

:''"...Plead ignorance, will you? What a pointless attitude. You fail to appreciate that the world is incomplete. I will change the world. As the first step, I will destroy this cave painting that you've protected all these years. A new legend of a new world will take its place. Am I wrong? If you feel that way, challenge me."''

:''"...I know you, Trainer. We've met at Mt. Coronet. Why would to protect this incomplete world? As the boss of Team Galactic, I will show you the error of your ways."''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"You've forced my hand this time!"''

* When defeated
:''"Impressive. Your prowess is notable."''

* After being defeated
:''"...Remarkable. But, Elder, your attitude told me what I needed to know. If the beings of time and space are brought together, they can't be stopped..."''

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
:''"Fellow members of Team Galactic! Hear me! My name, as I appear to you today, is Cyrus. This world of ours is a crude one. In a word, it is incomplete. It has been, and always will be, a struggle to survive in this world. We humans and Pokémon are likewise incomplete. Because we are all so lacking, we fight, we maim... It is ugly. I hate the incompleteness. That we are all incomplete, I hate it with my entire body and being. The world should be complete. The world must change. Then, who will change it? Me, Cyrus. And Team Galactic. Yes, all of you. Together we pored over myths and exposed their secrets. Together we captured legendary Pokémon. And now, Team Galactic has obtained the energy to change the world! The power of dreams is within our grasp! Understand it, fellow members! My long-held dreamworld is on the verge of becoming reality. All those headed to Mt. Coronet, and those who remain here... Though our missions may differ, our hearts beat as one. Let there be glory for Team Galactic!"''

* Before battle
:''"...So you've come. You heard my speech, I take it. Snicker... A big lie, of course. It's true, insofar as my intention is to create a new world. But that world isn't for the likes of Team Galactic. I seek an entirely new world solely for myself. If not, it could never be the complete and perfect world. You've seen my minions of Team Galactic. You yourself must know that they are uniformly useless and incomplete."''

:''"I know why you're here. I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead. I couldn't care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing them."''

:''"But, I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they? But still you come to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and faulty human heart. You were compelled to come here by such vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last Pokémon."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"I see... I may lose if this pace continues..."''

* When defeated
:''"Interesting. And quite curious."''

* After being defeated
:''"I see... You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion towards Pokémon."''

:''"...How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless as sentimentality."''

:''"...But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognize that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward."''

:''"The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own."''

:''"If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. I will ascend the mountain to its peak where destiny awaits me. It is there that I will create my new world..."''

=====Spear Pillar=====
:''"... ... Everything is ready for the creation of a new world. Now, all will end. And everything will begin. With this, the Red Chain made from the crystals of the three lake Pokémon. And this, the Red Chain I replicated with technological means... With these Red Chains I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash your power for me..."''

:''"{{p|Dialga}}, the mythical Pokémon, and the master of time! ...And the other. {{p|Palkia}}, the mythical Pokémon, and the master of space and dimensions!"''

:''"I've waited so long for this moment, Dialga and Palkia. Shaping this world is a double spiral of time and space. Yes, the very things that you have the ability to control! You will do my bidding! I will have your abilities as mine! With the power I wield, I will create an entirely new world! The incomplete and ugly world we have now can disappear. I am resetting everything to zero. Nothing can remain. It is all for making the ultimate world. A world of complete perfection. Nothing so vague and incomplete as spirit can remain."''

:''"...I should have expected as much. {{p|Uxie}}, "The Being of Knowledge." {{p|Azelf}}, "The Being of Willpower." And {{p|Mesprit}}, "The Being of Emotion"..."''

:''"The Pokémon have come to protect Sinnoh? Pathetic and worthless. It takes the three of them, the three lake Pokémon that symbolize spirit, to balance either the Pokémon of time or space. But they can't maintain balance against the two. Not when both Dialga and Palkia are here. Their coming here is in vain. So much meaningless drama. Now, <player>. You've constantly interfered with my plans, but you will be forgiven. After all, there will remain no spirit for all time when I am done. All spirit will disappear. It will be ripped away... From you! From your Pokémon! From those precious to you...! It is time! My dream will be my reality!"''

:''"What is this pressure I feel...? Something...is enraged?"''

:''"Interesting. So, there is a Pokémon that can only appear as a shadow."''

:''"Regardless, the effort is rash and foolish. I have harnessed the powers of Dialga and Palkia..."''

:''"I, Cyrus, won't have any more interferererererere...!"''

=====Distortion World=====
:''"... The shadowy Pokémon isn't here. It abandoned me here, then disappeared somewhere farther down... Was it content to merely interfere with my plan...? Incidentally, do you understand the concept of genes?"''

:''"... If it's true, you've impressed me. Genes can be considered the blueprints of all life-forms. That includes humans and Pokémon alike. Genes are contained in a DNA strand. A DNA strand consists of 2 chains of opposing characteristics in a spiral. If one of the chains were to be broken, the other could replicate it. One or the other cannot exist without its opposite."''

:''"Do you understand where I am going with this? This is a bizarre world. Time doesn't flow. Space isn't stable. Only that shadowy Pokémon lives here. This world is the opposite of our world-- our world I wish to change. It is like the two chains composing the strand of DNA. The two worlds must be balancing each other to remain in existence. Without one, the other cannot exist. The shadowy Pokémon must play a role in keeping the worlds in balance. That is why it must have interfered and brought me here. The shadowy Pokémon must have made this bizarre world. That's why trying to change our world disturbed it and made it reveal itself. But that is all irrelevant. What matters is defeating that Pokémon and making this world disappear. I won't allow it to interfere with me again. With it gone, neither world will be able to revert to its original state..."''

* Before battle
:''"Why should I run and hide from the world and have to wait quietly? My aim is to rid our world of the vague and incomplete thing we call spirit. By freeing ourselves of that, our world can be made complete. That is my justice! No one can interfere!"''

:''"I won't lose! Not to that shadowy Pokémon! Not in any worthless world!"''

* When defeated
:''"I won't accept this! This can't be! Not after all the sacrifices we've made to get this far! What of my new world?! Of my new galaxy?! Was this all a dream to be swept away by your reality?!"''

* After battle
:''"... Don't think that you can defeat or capture that Pokémon. This bizarre world is none other than that Pokémon itself! Capturing it or defeating it will make this world disappear! Very well! Do what you will! Rather than repairing the world, you're going to destroy it for me! Do it. You inherit my legacy."''

* After battle with Giratina
:''"That Pokémon... That shadowy Pokémon was {{tt|captured/defeated|Depends on the outcome, unless player fled}}?! Your doing so means that this irrational world will remain in existence! Does that make it impossible for me to create a new world? Even if I made new Red Chains, the new world can't be made! Why?! What compels you to protect the two worlds? Is spirit, a vague and incomplete thing, so important to you?!"''

:''"'''Silence!''' Enough of your blathering! That's how you justify spirit as something worthwhile?! That is merely humans hoping, deluding themselves that they are happy and safe! The emotions roiling inside me... Rage, hatred, frustration... These ugly emotions arise because of my own incomplete spirit! ...Enough. We will never see eye to eye. This, I promise you. I will break the secrets of the world. With that knowledge, I will create my own complete and perfect world. One day, you will awaken to a world of my creation. A world without spirit."''

* If the player fled from Giratina
:''"That shadowy Pokémon... You quelled its rage by refusing to battle it?! Your doing so means that this irrational world will remain in existence! Does that make it impossible for me to create a new world? Even if I made new Red Chains, the new world can't be made! Why?! What compels you to protect the two worlds? Is spirit, a vague and incomplete thing, so important to you?!"''

:''"'''Silence!''' Enough of your blathering! That's how you justify spirit as something worthwhile?! That is merely humans hoping, deluding themselves that they are happy and safe! The emotions roiling inside me... Rage, hatred, frustration... These ugly emotions arise because of my own incomplete spirit! ...Enough. We will never see eye to eye. This, I promise you. I will break the secrets of the world. With that knowledge, I will create my own complete and perfect world. One day, you will awaken to a world of my creation. A world without spirit."''

==In the anime==
[[File:Cyrus anime.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus in the anime]]
Cyrus made his first appearance in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', along with [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]]. It was revealed that he is a rich businessman who has made most of the buildings and libraries throughout [[Sinnoh]]. However, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} do not know that he is also the Team Galactic leader. Using his businessman alter-ego, he visits the [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]] while the remaining members of [[Team Galactic]] carry out a plan to steal the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}} from the Research Center, after having already stolen the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}} from its [[Eterna City]] police escort.

He discovers from {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} that they have seen {{p|Azelf}} and {{p|Mesprit}} when the two tell of their encounters with the mysterious Pokémon at [[Lake Verity]] and [[Lake Valor]], which apparently intrigues him.

He appeared again in ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]''. He was seen in Team Galactic's headquarters alongside Saturn and Jupiter as well as [[Charon]]. They were coordinating Mars's mission on [[Iron Island]] and using a beam launched with the [[Spear Key]] to scan energy readings from the [[Spear Pillar]]. However, Mars's machine was destroyed when the scan had reached only 60%, presumably ruining their mission. Despite this, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged.

Cyrus also appeared towards the end of ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', where he requested [[J]]'s services in capturing {{p|Uxie}}, Mesprit and Azelf. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', he takes control of Dialga and Palkia, and steps into a portal created by the two legendary Pokémon. The portal was soon destroyed, leaving Cyrus's fate unknown; however it is implied that the dimension was destroyed by Dialga and Palkia.

He appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy with all the other members of Team Galactic.

[[File:Cyrus Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Cyrus in Pokémon Adventures]]
Cyrus makes his first appearance in ''[[PS348|A Big Stink Over Stunky]]'' as a silhouette walking down {{rt|207|Sinnoh}} where he receives a package; he is fully revealed after signing the receipt and goes to [[Mt. Coronet]]. When {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} pass through Mt. Coronet he coldly attacks them with his newly evolved Probopass and Magnezone, trapping them underneath a pile of rubble and leaves while stating that they were disturbing sacred ground.

Cyrus later appears at the Celestic ruins where Diamond and Pearl finally meet him in person. He came to the ruins to find information of the Legendary Pokémon Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit. He battles [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] and later, Diamond and Pearl, who had stolen the camera he used to take pictures of the paintings in the ruins. As they battle each other, Pearl has his [[Chatler]] destroy the camera that Cyrus was fighting for. With his camera destroyed and having the information he needed, Cyrus takes his leave and traps the two boys on top of a pillar of stone.

After [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]], and [[Saturn]] arrive from their successful mission to capture the [[Lake guardians]], Cyrus begins the creation of the [[Red Chain]].

After managing to make one Red Chain, Cyrus is attacked by the researcher of the Sinnoh myths and the Sinnoh region Champion, [[Cynthia]]. After a long battle, Cyrus manages to escape with Cynthia and her Garchomp far too exhausted to follow him. When he goes to check on the progress of the second Red Chain’s creation, he finds that Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie have all been freed from their containers. Cyrus, realizing that recapturing them would be impossible and that he has to use his weaker, artificially created Red Chain, furiously flies off to the [[Spear Pillar]].

He arrives at the Spear Pillar where he greeted by his Galactic Commanders who were worried about his injured state. Cyrus tells them to ignore it and stop any intruders from interrupting his ritual to summon the Legendary {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. Cyrus manages to summon the two dragon Pokémon and has them fight each other, causing Time and Space to distort in various ways. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter are eventually defeated by the Sinnoh Gym Leaders and they all ambush Cyrus while he has Dialga and Palkia fight each other. Despite his best efforts, Cyrus is unable to stop them from breaking the Red Chain he was using and unleashes his fury onto them.

Later, when Diamond and Pearl go through with their assault on Dialga and Palkia, Cyrus attacks them while under the cover of a thick black {{m|haze}}. He reveals the reason for why he tried to make a new world; while Emotion, Knowledge, and Willpower make up a complete world, the world they live always has one that is lacking compared to the other two and as such, Cyrus aims to create a world without any of these aspects, a world that is perfect.

When Diamond uses his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} to stop Dialga and Palkia from causing anymore space-time anomalies, Cyrus attacks the boy and knocks him off the giant Pokémon. Cyrus states that Diamond wouldn’t be able to understand the reason why he does the things he does but the young boy replies with his own definition of Time and Space that he had learned on his journey with Pearl and Platinum. Cyrus at first ignores his words but quickly notices that Dialga and Palkia have stopped fighting with each other and quickly uses the Red Chain to get them fighting again. With only one Red Chain, Cyrus only has half control over the two dragons; Diamond and Pearl decide to take advantage of this and attack the two dragons with their teams.

Dialga and Palkia, now freed from their controlled status, use their powers to create a sphere of light that pulls Cyrus off the ground and into it. As he floats into the sphere of light, Cyrus looks at the Sinnoh Pokédex holders and realizes that they are a perfect combination of Knowledge (Platinum), Emotion (Diamond), and Willpower (Pearl) and that was the reason he was defeated. He is next seen lying unconscious on the ground where Cynthia decides to take him to the hospital before interrogating him. While he and the unconscious Gym Leaders he had defeated earlier are taken to get medical help an accident caused by [[Charon]]'s machine caused a [[Distortion World|hole]] to appear in the sky where mysterious {{p|Giratina|black tentacles}} grab Dialga, Palkia, and Cyrus into it.

Later, Cyrus appears in the Distortion World, still alive after the battle on Spear Pillar. He is discovered by Diamond, who had been sent there after being hit by one of {{p|Giratina}}'s attacks. After explaining how he ended up there, Diamond asks Cyrus if he knew if there was any way to defeat Giratina. He takes Diamond to an area where Giratina had kept Dialga and Palkia trapped after it dragged them into the Distortion World. Cyrus reveals that his defeat at the Spear Pillar helped him see the error of his ways and he now wants to support Diamond's wishes. Together, they use their Pokémon to break Dialga and Palkia from the mineral that had them captured, freeing them in the process. Afterward, they ride the dragons over to where Pearl is, surprising him due to him not expecting Cyrus to be helping them.

As the battle between the legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. Cyrus listens to everyone realize that even though humans and Pokémon make mistakes, they'll work together to try to fix it. This gives Cyrus a sense of gratitude in his heart, which causes {{p|Shaymin}} to fly into his arms and later join the battle.

After Charon is defeated, Cyrus and his Commanders emerge from the Distortion World unharmed. Charon tries to lie to Cyrus by claiming that he intended to gather the legendary Pokémon for Team Galactic's sake. Cyrus reaches down to Charon, which Saturn and Mars think it means he's going to pinch him. However, Cyrus only takes his machine, and praises Charon for his technological genius. The records reveal that he has been using it since the battle on the Spear Pillar, which angers Saturn into figuring out that he was attempting to use the machine to control Dialga and Palkia into opening a hole to the Distortion World, to which Charon denies.

Cyrus speaks to his four Commanders once more and reveals that he is disbanding Team Galactic. He begins to leave and tells them to do whatever they wish, but an angry Jupiter tells him that without Team Galactic, she, Mars, and Saturn have nowhere else to go. Listening to her wishes, Cyrus takes Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter away with him and thanks Diamond, Pearl, Platinum for their help.

===In the [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]] manga===
[[File:Cyrus DPA.png|thumb|right|Cyrus in Diamond and Pearl Adventure]]
Cyrus is first seen watching a Contest being performed by [[Mitsumi]] in [[Hearthome City]]. He introduces himself as a friend of hers to [[Hareta]] and then leaves after asking Hareta to give her his regards on her performance.

Later, at [[Celestic Town]], Cyrus along with two of his commanders, [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]] arrive at the ruins after Hareta manages to throw a bomb they planted into a safe area. Here, Cyrus introduces himself to Hareta as the leader of Team Galactic and reveals that he is also searching for the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Dialga}}. After revealing his plans, Cyrus makes his leave while Hareta follows him and Mitsumi is left behind to battle Jupiter and Saturn.

After catching up to him, Cyrus offers to let Hareta join him in his operation; Hareta refuses and they begin battling. The two have an intense battle and eventually, Hareta is knocked off of the bridge they were fighting on and is sent into the water below. Cyrus soon mulls over his victory but Hareta suddenly returns from the water and defeats his {{p|Weavile}} with a {{a|Torrent}} powered {{m|Surf}}. Suddenly, Cyrus realizes that he is starting enjoy their battle; in a fit of rage, Cyrus commands his {{p|Gyarados}} to use {{m|Giga Impact}}, destroying the bridge and sending Hareta into water once again. Cyrus then leaves while questioning how he lost control over himself in their battle.

Later, at [[Lake Valor]], Cyrus arrives after Saturn is defeated by Hareta. Disappointed by his failure, Cyrus unceremoniously fires Saturn from Team Galactic and tells him to leave. Noticing that Hareta is still alive after previously defeating him, he is challenged to a battle by the boy and they begin battling. Cyrus almost defeats Hareta again but he quickly loses his advantage once Hareta sets up a well planned move. Before his Gyarados can be defeated by a {{m|Thunder}} fired from Hareta's {{p|Luxio}}, Saturn saves it with his {{p|Rhyperior}}'s {{a|Lightningrod}} and begs for another chance. Suddenly, Hareta defeats Saturn with a {{a|Torrent}} powered-up {{m|Surf}} from his Piplup; Cyrus takes the unconscious Saturn away and states that their battle was a draw.

Later, while Jupiter battles Mitsumi at Lake Acuity, Cyrus sends a phone call to Jupiter where he requests that Mitsumi comes to him. It is eventually revealed that Cyrus had picked up Mitsumi when she was a child and raised her to be Team Galactic's greatest warrior. By holding her beloved {{p|Eevee}} as hostage, Cyrus forces Mitsumi to once again fight for him and makes her battle Hareta. As they battle, Cyrus coldly tries to convince Mitsumi that she is alone in the world and that she only belongs in Team Galactic. Eventually, Hareta manages to break through to Mitsumi and convinces her to fight as a real Trainer instead of a member of Team Galactic.

After Mitsumi is defeated, Cyrus leads Hareta to the room where he holds the three Pokémon of spirit, {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. Hareta manages to free them from their prison, but Cyrus managed to complete the item he was creating with the three Pokémon, the [[Red Chain]]. Cyrus assumes that Hareta hates him for his actions but is shocked to only find that he pities him instead. Cyrus gives Hareta a Master Ball and tells him to go to Mt. Coronet where they can have one last battle; he then leaves the exploding Galactic Building with Hareta still inside.

Later, at the Spear Pillar, after waiting for the return of Hareta, Cyrus assumes he had died in the explosion and goes on with his plan. With the Red Chain, Cyrus finally summons the Pokémon of Time, {{p|Dialga}} and takes control of it. With Dialga's control over time, Cyrus easily defeats Hareta's Pokémon and he announces his plan to destroy everything to start the world anew. Cyrus commands Dialga to send the world back to its beginning, causing everything revert back to the start of the universe. [[Hareta's Empoleon]] attempts to sacrifices itself to stop Cyrus, against Hareta's wishes, but is stopped by the [[lake guardians]] who saves them and breaks the Red Chain, freeing Dialga from Cyrus's control.

With Dialga freed, Cyrus has been defeated, but suddenly, the other god Pokémon, {{p|Palkia}}, arrives. While Dialga and Palkia fight, Cyrus witnesses Hareta, Mitsumi, and the Gym Leaders attempt to try to stop them, only to fail. Cyrus states that while the imperfect world will end, nothing will remain to replace it. Mitsumi states that Hareta won't let that happen because he is fighting for all of them. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter come to help them fight Dialga and Palkia; this causes Cyrus to tell them how to defeat the two dragons.

Hareta uses Cyrus's plan and manages to get Dialga to use {{m|Roar of Time}}, stopping it momentarily. With Dialga frozen briefly, Cyrus and the others command their Pokémon to attack Dialga, stopping the fight between the two gods. After the events end, Cyrus disappears along with his commanders. Some time afterwards, Cyrus is captured by Charon, who takes over Team Galactic. When Kaisei accidentally breaks into Cyrus' prison cell in the Team Galactic HQ, he offers to free Cyrus, but Cyrus turns him down, saying that he is waiting to see what Charon plans to do with Team Galactic.

During the battle against Charon in the Team Galactic HQ, Mitsumi and the three Commanders free Cyrus, and they set out to the Distortion World to fight Charon. Cyrus and the others, seeing the battle against Giratina in the forest arrive to assist, and Cyrus is last seen fighting Giratina with the others.

Later, when Charon escapes to Stark Mountain hoping to capture Heatran, Agent Looker stops him, claiming that Cyrus has disbanded Team Galactic.

==Names==
His Japanese name, {{wp|Akagi}}, is a common surname in Japan, which may indicate that, like [[Giovanni]], his name in Japan is merely his last name, leaving his first unknown. "Akagi" means "red castle", "red tree", or "red future", the last of which may reference the many deaths that would have taken place if his scheme had come to fruition. It may also refer to the [[Red Chain]] which Cyrus needs to summon the legendary Pokémon, {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{p|Palkia}}, at the [[Spear Pillar]]. It could also be in reference to Planet X, also known as the Red Planet, Nibiru, Wormwood, Quetzalcoatl, and many more names. It is an apocalyptic conspiracy, but there are many different theories about what exactly it is. There is also a volcano called Akagi in the real-world [[wp:Kantō region|Kanto region]] of Japan.

The majority of Cyrus's localized names refer to the Sun; this fits in with the Commanders' planetary naming scheme, and may be a reference to how Cyrus would figuratively hold the Sun's position as center of his new world. The Korean and Chinese names contain both a reference to red, like the Japanese one, and to the Sun, like the localized Western ones.

==Trivia==
* The ''aka'' that appears in his Japanese name may refer to the color red, as a counterpart to [[Cynthia]], whose Japanese name refers to ''shiro'', white.
* In the games, Cyrus's Pokémon are all either of {{type|Dark}} and/or {{type|Flying}} (his Honchkrow is both). Also all of Cyrus's Pokémon are dual-types, and they all have a weakness to {{t|Rock}}.
* Until [[Charon]]'s introduction, Cyrus was the only one of the four major characters of Team Galactic that does not share a name with a planet. Charon's Japanese namesake, {{wp|Pluto}}, is a {{wp|dwarf planet}}, but was considered a planet between its 1930 discovery and 2006. {{wp|Charon (moon)|Charon}} is the largest of Pluto's five moons. This makes Cyrus the only named Team Galactic member who is not named for a solar system object (though his English and German names are derived from one).
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] to appear in the opening of a {{game3|Platinum|game}}.
* Although there are only three red gems visible on each of {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, Cyrus will recreate the Red Chain as many times as the player loses to him.
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous team]] to have his age confirmed. [[Looker]] confirms his age in the Team Galactic Headquarters in [[Veilstone City]].
* Cyrus shares {{p|Honchkrow|a Pokémon}} with Giovanni, another leader of a villainous gang, though the latter was never shown with one until the release of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
** Additionally, {{adv|Silver}}, a counterpart to Giovanni's {{ga|Silver|own son}}, also possesses a Honchkrow.
*** Silver and his counterparts own every single Pokémon Cyrus owns in the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl versions: Weavile, Honchkrow and Gyarados in Pokémon Adventures and Crobat in the games, as well as Weavile's pre-evolution, Sneasel.
* In both the original Japanese version and English dub of the anime, Cyrus's voice actors have previously portrayed leaders of other villainous teams. [[Sean Schemmel]] played [[Team Aqua]] head [[Archie]], and [[Kenta Miyake]] also voices {{an|Giovanni}}, the boss of [[Team Rocket]].

'''J''' (Japanese: '''Ｊ''' ''J''), frequently referred to as '''Pokémon Hunter J''', or '''Jay''' in some dubs, is a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunter]] who, with the help from [[J's henchmen|her henchmen]], captures and steals {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and sells them requested by [[J's clients|her clients]] for a profit on the {{wp|black market}}. She first appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''.

==History==
In ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]'', she first stole [[Melodi]]'s {{p|Gardevoir}}. Thinking {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TRT}}'s {{MTR}} would be worth a sizable amount of money, she stole them, too, thus forcing Ash to join forces with [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to rescue them. Following a brief confrontation with J, they managed to sneak into J's airborne base and rescue their Pokémon and all the others she had stolen, before returning them to their rightful Trainers. Though several of her henchmen have been captured by [[Officer Jenny]], J remained at large. Jessie, James and Meowth especially seem to harbor a grudge against her ever since she kidnapped Meowth.

J appeared again in ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]''. This time, she was on a mission to steal a group of {{p|Shieldon}}, but was foiled by Ash and {{ashfr}}, with help from [[Gary Oak|Gary]]. Her client cut off the deal to obtain the Shieldon, since Officer Jenny was near. After telling Ash and {{ashfr}} not to get in her way next time, she told her second-in-command to establish radio contact with their employer, in order to tell him that they would not be doing service with him again.

She appeared again during the two-part episode ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]]'' ''[[DP072|and Two]]'' where she tried to steal a {{m|Aura Sphere|special}} {{p|Riolu}} for her client. She successfully captured it and left after receiving her payment, but the Riolu was later rescued from the client, who was arrested.

She also appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'' where she traveled to the [[Snowpoint Temple]] and forcefully awakened {{p|Regigigas}} at the request of a client. Despite this, she was unable to capture it, due mostly to the efforts of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and [[Brandon's Regis|his Pokémon]], and she immediately withdrew from the area when her client decided to cancel the deal.

[[File:J glasses sinking.png|200px|right|thumb|J's glasses shown outside the sinking ship]]
J appeared again in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', where she was hired by [[Team Galactic]] to catch {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. She also appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', attempting to carry out the task of capturing them. Although she did succeed in capturing the [[Lake guardians]], her ship was hit by two {{m|Future Sight}} attacks used by Uxie and Mesprit directly before she captured them, which in her overconfidence she had forgotten. As a result, her ship crashed into [[Lake Valor]] and was sucked into a whirlpool while she and her crew members were on board. Once the ship was underwater, the protective glass broke and the ship was flooded with water, causing it to explode. It is currently unknown if J, her Pokémon, or any of her crew survived.


She appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy riding her Salamence.

==Character==

She is a person who is willing to do anything to capture Pokémon for her clients even if it means injuring people or Pokémon, easily revealing her to be ruthless, relentless, and cruel. In fact, in her debut episode, she sacrificed some of her [[J's henchmen|henchmen]] to [[Officer Jenny]] without hesitation or remorse, emphasizing her intensely independent, sociopathic, greedy and callous nature. She has no honor, decency or regard for any form of life. The only thing that matters to her is money, nothing else. She is one of the very few characters (including the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] and [[Grings Kodai]]) in the anime who is purely evil. However, she tends to underestimate her opponents when on the verge of victory, which often leads to her defeat and seemingly her final downfall.

==Pokémon==
This listing is of J's known Pokémon:

Ash fought J's Drapion with his Aipom and Turtwig, but both Pokémon never stood a chance. Drapion didn't take damage from either Aipom or Turtwig's attacks, and struck the Pokémon with its {{m|Cross Poison}}. In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]'', J used her Drapion again in order to harm Ash without warning. It wrapped its claws tightly around Ash's midsection and began to squeeze him. Ash responded to this by kicking it in the face, making it one of the only Pokémon Ash ever intentionally hurt.

Drapion's known moves are {{m|Poison Sting}}, {{m|Cross Poison}}, and {{m|Pin Missile}}.}}

===Gadgets===
* J has what looks like some sort of cannon attached to her arm that is able to turn Pokémon and humans into stone. The effects are permanent unless Pokémon are placed in a special case or revived with {{m|Hidden Power}}. In ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship]]'', it was destroyed when Regigigas reflected her Salamence's {{m|Dragon Pulse}} back at her. The device had been repaired or replaced by the time the events of ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' took place.
* She also has cases for those Pokémon turned to stone which can adjust how much the body is covered with stone.
* Her goggles also have many abilities, like detecting heat and {{m|camouflage}}d or {{m|transform}}ed Pokémon.

===Transportation===
* She has six-wheeled vans driven by her henchmen that can shoot out nets and have retractable arms.
* She travels throughout the Pokémon world in an airship which also serves as her hideout. This ship is equipped with a stealth cloaking device that can render the ship invisible which helps in deterring pursuers, mounting surprise attacks, and making her business dealings more private and less vulnerable to outside interference. It is also capable of firing lasers from its front and has a bottom-mounted cannon that shoots a gum-like substance for restraining and capturing Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* Unlike most villains in the anime, it seems as though J is actually trying to ''murder'' Ash, not just get rid of him. This is shown in ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part Two]]'', when she commands her Salamence to burn the forest around him and use {{m|Hyper Beam}} directly on him, orders her Drapion to squeeze him tight with its claws, and ejects him from her ship from a great height.
* J is the only recurring villain in the anime to not be a member of a villainous team.

'''Dr. Yung''' (Japanese: '''ドクター・ユング''' ''Dr. Yung'') is a scientist from the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''.

==Character==
Dr. Yung invented the [[Mirage Pokémon]] system. This appears to be a project he spent many years on, as {{an|Professor Oak}} acknowledges. Yung is shown to have a combination of great intellect and battling skill, but still has a sort of mysterious air about himself. However, later in the episode, it is shown that Yung is corrupt and a sociopath. He is generally incapable of feeling genuine emotion and is shown to be megalomaniacal, power-hungry, delusional, embittered, cruel, heartless, and cynical.

He challenges {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} to battle with him using a Mirage {{p|Aggron}} his system has generated. {{an|Misty}} eagerly accepts his challenge and uses {{TP|Misty|her Staryu|Staryu}}, but she lost easily when the Aggron showed off one of Yung's system's features - the ability to use any attack, in this case {{m|Bullet Seed}}. Ash challenged him next with {{AP|Pikachu}}, but before the battle could begin, the '''Mirage Master''' (Japanese: '''ミスター・ミラージュ''' ''Mr. Mirage'') captured both Yung and Oak by commandeering the system.

[[File:Mirage Master.png|thumb|right|As the Mirage Master]]

While Ash and his friends attempted to mount a rescue mission, Mirage Master tortured Oak with the intent of gaining the access password to Oak's laboratory database. Revealing his insanity to the protagonists, he spoke of his contempt for the flaws inherent in every Pokémon and of his desire to create a Pokémon free of these flaws. He is especially enraged when a Mirage {{p|Mew}} appears, which he declared a 'flawed specimen.'

Oak initially resisted the torture and refused to give the password. As a backup plan, Mirage Master used some of his Mirage Pokémon to capture Pikachu after ambushing it. He then strapped it to a table and used a special machine to scan its memories for data, causing it great pain. This finally broke Oak's resolve, and he surrendered the password, "{{game|Red and Green|s|REDGREEN}}." Using a combination of his new access to Oak's laboratory's database and his ability to hack the servers of [[Pokémon Center]]s worldwide, Mirage Master began forming his perfect Pokémon.

When Ash, and later Misty and {{an|May}} arrived to confront him, Mirage Master completed the experiment, creating a Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}}. He demonstrated its power by instantly defeating all of the other Mirage Pokémon, then he attempted to kill Oak, who had to defend himself with a {{p|Dragonite}}. Oak urged the group to escape, becoming resigned to the fact that they could not save Yung, but Mirage Master had another trick up his sleeve - he deployed missiles to create a much larger field for the Mirage Pokémon to move around in, allowing him to unleash his Mirage Mewtwo on the world. To aid in this endeavor he also summoned a Mirage {{p|Entei}}, Mirage {{p|Articuno}} and Mirage {{p|Zapdos}}.

[[File:Evil Yung.png|thumb|right|Yung unmasked]]

Later, after the Mirage Master declared his Mirage {{p|Mewtwo}} to be the result of "many years of hard work", {{an|Professor Oak}} successfully unmasked him to actually ''be'' Dr. Yung. It was revealed that Yung had been a student at the Pokémon Institute when he invented the Mirage System, but he was expelled because his research was considered cruel, thus leaving him bitter and hungry for revenge. He battled against the group using Mewtwo and easily took the upper hand, but with some timely help from the Mirage {{p|Mew}} that Yung had declared a "flawed specimen", [[Ash's Pikachu]] was able to defeat it using {{m|Volt Tackle}}.

After being defeated, he escaped into his burning lab. Oak tried to pursue him, but falling iron blocked the entrance, and Yung was never seen again.

==Mirage Pokémon==
In the special ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', he used these mirage Pokémon:

|desc={{p|Mewtwo}} is a Mirage Pokémon who was created as a result of data being extracted by many computers worldwide to Dr. Yung's castle. Ash his friends try to stop him with Ash using Pikachu, Oak using {{p|Dragonite}}, Misty using {{TP|Misty|Gyarados}} and May using her [[May's Blaziken|Combusken]] in the process. However, Mewtwo defeats the latter three leaving Ash and Pikachu to take care of it and Dr. Yung on their own. With the Mirage Mew's help of holding back Mewtwo, Pikachu was able to defeat the Mirage Mewtwo (and Mew as well), thus destroying the systems.

Mewtwo's used moves are {{m|Shadow Ball}}, {{m|Flamethrower}}{{tt|*|Used by morphing hand into Arcanine head}}, {{m|SolarBeam}}{{tt|*|Used by morphing hands into Tropius heads}}, {{m|Hyper Beam}}{{tt|*|Used by morphing arm into Rayquaza head}}, {{m|Hydro Pump}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}}, {{m|Bullet Seed}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Psybeam}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}}, {{m|Ice Beam}}, {{m|Iron Tail}}, {{m|Quick Attack}}{{tt|*|Normal Mewtwo cannot legitimately learn}} and {{m|Mega Punch}}.}}

'''J''' (Japanese: '''Ｊ''' ''J''), frequently referred to as '''Pokémon Hunter J''', or '''Jay''' in some dubs, is a [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon hunter]] who, with the help from [[J's henchmen|her henchmen]], captures and steals {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and sells them requested by [[J's clients|her clients]] for a profit on the {{wp|black market}}. She first appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]''.

==History==
In ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty!]]'', she first stole [[Melodi]]'s {{p|Gardevoir}}. Thinking {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TRT}}'s {{MTR}} would be worth a sizable amount of money, she stole them, too, thus forcing Ash to join forces with [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to rescue them. Following a brief confrontation with J, they managed to sneak into J's airborne base and rescue their Pokémon and all the others she had stolen, before returning them to their rightful Trainers. Though several of her henchmen have been captured by [[Officer Jenny]], J remained at large. Jessie, James and Meowth especially seem to harbor a grudge against her ever since she kidnapped Meowth.

J appeared again in ''[[DP045|Ill-Will Hunting!]]''. This time, she was on a mission to steal a group of {{p|Shieldon}}, but was foiled by Ash and {{ashfr}}, with help from [[Gary Oak|Gary]]. Her client cut off the deal to obtain the Shieldon, since Officer Jenny was near. After telling Ash and {{ashfr}} not to get in her way next time, she told her second-in-command to establish radio contact with their employer, in order to tell him that they would not be doing service with him again.

She appeared again during the two-part episode ''[[DP071|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Parts One]]'' ''[[DP072|and Two]]'' where she tried to steal a {{m|Aura Sphere|special}} {{p|Riolu}} for her client. She successfully captured it and left after receiving her payment, but the Riolu was later rescued from the client, who was arrested.

She also appeared in ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship!]]'' where she traveled to the [[Snowpoint Temple]] and forcefully awakened {{p|Regigigas}} at the request of a client. Despite this, she was unable to capture it, due mostly to the efforts of {{FB|Pyramid King|Brandon}} and [[Brandon's Regis|his Pokémon]], and she immediately withdrew from the area when her client decided to cancel the deal.

[[File:J glasses sinking.png|200px|right|thumb|J's glasses shown outside the sinking ship]]
J appeared again in ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', where she was hired by [[Team Galactic]] to catch {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. She also appeared in ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', attempting to carry out the task of capturing them. Although she did succeed in capturing the [[Lake guardians]], her ship was hit by two {{m|Future Sight}} attacks used by Uxie and Mesprit directly before she captured them, which in her overconfidence she had forgotten. As a result, her ship crashed into [[Lake Valor]] and was sucked into a whirlpool while she and her crew members were on board. Once the ship was underwater, the protective glass broke and the ship was flooded with water, causing it to explode. It is currently unknown if J, her Pokémon, or any of her crew survived.


She appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy riding her Salamence.

==Character==

She is a person who is willing to do anything to capture Pokémon for her clients even if it means injuring people or Pokémon, easily revealing her to be ruthless, relentless, and cruel. In fact, in her debut episode, she sacrificed some of her [[J's henchmen|henchmen]] to [[Officer Jenny]] without hesitation or remorse, emphasizing her intensely independent, sociopathic, greedy and callous nature. She has no honor, decency or regard for any form of life. The only thing that matters to her is money, nothing else. She is one of the very few characters (including the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]] and [[Grings Kodai]]) in the anime who is purely evil. However, she tends to underestimate her opponents when on the verge of victory, which often leads to her defeat and seemingly her final downfall.

==Pokémon==

Ash fought J's Drapion with his Aipom and Turtwig, but both Pokémon never stood a chance. Drapion didn't take damage from either Aipom or Turtwig's attacks, and struck the Pokémon with its {{m|Cross Poison}}. In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! (Part 2)]]'', J used her Drapion again in order to harm Ash without warning. It wrapped its claws tightly around Ash's midsection and began to squeeze him. Ash responded to this by kicking it in the face, making it one of the only Pokémon Ash ever intentionally hurt.

Drapion's known moves are {{m|Poison Sting}}, {{m|Cross Poison}}, and {{m|Pin Missile}}.}}

===Gadgets===
* J has what looks like some sort of cannon attached to her arm that is able to turn Pokémon and humans into stone. The effects are permanent unless Pokémon are placed in a special case or revived with {{m|Hidden Power}}. In ''[[DP129|Pillars of Friendship]]'', it was destroyed when Regigigas reflected her Salamence's {{m|Dragon Pulse}} back at her. The device had been repaired or replaced by the time the events of ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'' took place.
* She also has cases for those Pokémon turned to stone which can adjust how much the body is covered with stone.
* Her goggles also have many abilities, like detecting heat and {{m|camouflage}}d or {{m|transform}}ed Pokémon.

===Transportation===
* She has six-wheeled vans driven by her henchmen that can shoot out nets and have retractable arms.
* She travels throughout the Pokémon world in an airship which also serves as her hideout. This ship is equipped with a stealth cloaking device that can render the ship invisible which helps in deterring pursuers, mounting surprise attacks, and making her business dealings more private and less vulnerable to outside interference. It is also capable of firing lasers from its front and has a bottom-mounted cannon that shoots a gum-like substance for restraining and capturing Pokémon.

==Trivia==
* Unlike most villains in the anime, it seems as though J is actually trying to ''murder'' Ash, not just get rid of him. This is shown in ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part Two]]'', when she commands her Salamence to burn the forest around him and use {{m|Hyper Beam}} directly on him, orders her Drapion to squeeze him tight with its claws, and ejects him from her ship from a great height.
* J is the only recurring villain in the anime to not be a member of a villainous team.

'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is the boss of [[Team Galactic]], a man aiming to create a world without spirit.

==In the games==
As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the nihilistic, god-complexed main antagonist of the [[Sinnoh]] games, with the ultimate goal of summoning {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} in order to destroy the universe so that he may start it again as its god. Born and raised in [[Sunyshore City]], he was known to be a good, albeit asocial, student, and so preferred the company of machines over humans and Pokémon. Despite being such a good student, however, he did not live up to his parents' expectations, and so felt rejected. Sometime after this, he decided emotions were the source of all strife in the world, and that only the elimination of emotions, along with spirit, was the only cure to fighting in the world, which lead to his plan and actions during the storyline in Sinnoh. His grandfather, who lives on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}} in {{game|Platinum}}, regrets not taking him in during his time of need.

==={{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}===
The player first meets him in [[Mt. Coronet]], but he does not battle, nor give his name. Later on, the two men guarding [[Lake Valor]] will mention his name in passing, though Cyrus himself is not identified until he introduces himself after the {{player}} defeats a {{tc|Galactic Grunt}} and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]].

After his defeat at the Spear Pillar, Cyrus claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]].

====Quotes====
=====Mt. Coronet=====
:''"According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded.. There should have been no strife. But what became of that world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has appeared... This world is being ruined by it...I find the state of things to be deplorable..."''

=====Celestic Town=====
:''"There appears to have been an insignificant struggle here. Everyone should step back and view things from a bigger perspective. Yes, a bigger perspective, one that is on a universal scale. My name is Cyrus. I seek the power to create a new world, a world without strife. However that power seems to be unavailable here... We've met before, yes? It was at Mt. Coronet. If you discover any power derived from the legends of Sinnoh, inform me. For that power is what I need to create my new world."''

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
* Before battle
:''"I see. You must be the Trainer I've been hearing about. The foolhardy one that's trying to stand up to Team Galactic. Although I'd hardly expected to see that the Trainer is a mere child. I'd heard that our Commanders had a rough time with you... I know why you're here, I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead, I couldn't care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing of them."''

:''"But I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they not? But still you came to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and lacking human heart. You were compelled to come here by vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last Pokémon."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"I see... I may lose if this pace continues..."''

* When defeated
:''"Interesting and quite curious."''

* After being defeated
:''"I see. You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion toward Pokémon. How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless sentimentality. But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognize that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward."''

:''"The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own. If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. That's correct. Mt. Coronet. Where you and I first met. I will ascend the mountain to its peak and put an end to everything... No. I will bring about a new beginning for everything..."''

=====Spear Pillar=====
:''"Now all will end. And everything will begin. With this [[Red Chain]] I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash all your power for me... {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}/{{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}} the mythical Pokémon and the master of time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}}! This will bring about the destruction of all things. With everything gone, there will be no fighting and no strife. Can you feel time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}} distorting? Only I can choose to stop it. This is the mythical Pokémon that created Sinnoh! Dialga{{sup/4|D}}/Palkia{{sup/4|P}} the ancient deity of time{{sup/4|D}}/space{{sup/4|P}}! This world cannot be molded into the ultimate world I seek! It's far easier to create an entirely new world than to change this one! A new world in which I am the ruler of all things! I shall become a deity!"''

:''"Oh! Dialga{{sup/4|D}}/Palkia{{sup/4|P}}... This is... Fantastic! Beautiful! It's the creating of a new galaxy! My new world! ... Wh-what?!"''

* Before battle
:''"The Red Chain! It crumbled away to nothing?! But why? Why would {{p|Mesprit}}, the Pokémon of Lake Verity, appear by your side? But never mind that! It's all destroyed! My galaxy is gone! I won't allow this... I will capture those three again and craft another Red Chain! But before I even think about that, I'm going to completely crush you!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"I admit that you have pushed me to this extreme."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"This... this cannot be! It's not possible that I lose!"''

* When defeated
:''"I won't admit this! The power spoken of in mythology... I didn't just make it obey me, I made it my own!"''

* After being defeated
:''"What is truly ultimate to you? What do you consider perfection? The most important thing... What shines the brightest... Telling you is meaningless. But I will not give up. I will become a deity one day... And I will make the ultimate mine..."''

[[File:CyrusPlatopen.png|thumb|256px|Cyrus in the opening of Platinum]]
Cyrus has, in a way, more of a role in {{v2|Platinum}}, as he is first met at [[Lake Verity]] near the start of the game. He is also met in front of the statue in [[Eterna City]]. Unlike before, he is first battled in the ruins of [[Celestic Town]]. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar, he is taken by {{p|Giratina}} to the [[Distortion World]]. After the player battles Giratina, Cyrus stays in the Distortion World, still vowing to create a world without spirit.

====Quotes====
=====Lake Verity=====
:''"...The flowing time... The expanding space... I will make it all mine one day... Cyrus is my name. Remember it... Until then, sleep while you can, legendary Pokémon of the lake bed...."''

:''"Allow me to pass. Step aside."''

=====Eterna City=====
:''"...So, this is Eterna's Pokémon statue... Shaping our world are time and space in an intertwining spiral. Revered in Sinnoh are the Pokémon of time and space... Sinnoh's myth... Its truth needs investigation..."''

:''"...Pardon me. Stand aside."''

:''"..."''

=====Mt. Coronet=====
:''"According to one theory, Mt. Coronet is where the Sinnoh region began. In a newly created world... A world where only time flowed and space expanded... There should have been no strife. But what became of the world? Because the human spirit is weak and incomplete, strife has spread... This world is being ruined by it... I find this state of affairs deplorable..."''

=====Celestic Town=====
* Before battle
:''"I would like to know more about that legend, if you will."''

:''"My name is Cyrus. I want to put an end to pointless strife and hostility. I am seeking the power to create the ideal world. Thus, I want you to answer. The world today can't change because the [[Lake guardians|three Pokémon]] keep it in balance. Is that what you are saying?"''

:''"...Plead ignorance, will you? What a pointless attitude. You fail to appreciate that the world is incomplete. I will change the world. As the first step, I will destroy this cave painting that you've protected all these years. A new legend of a new world will take its place. Am I wrong? If you feel that way, challenge me."''

:''"...I know you, Trainer. We've met at Mt. Coronet. Why would to protect this incomplete world? As the boss of Team Galactic, I will show you the error of your ways."''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"You've forced my hand this time!"''

* When defeated
:''"Impressive. Your prowess is notable."''

* After being defeated
:''"...Remarkable. But, Elder, your attitude told me what I needed to know. If the beings of time and space are brought together, they can't be stopped..."''

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
:''"Fellow members of Team Galactic! Hear me! My name, as I appear to you today, is Cyrus. This world of ours is a crude one. In a word, it is incomplete. It has been, and always will be, a struggle to survive in this world. We humans and Pokémon are likewise incomplete. Because we are all so lacking, we fight, we maim... It is ugly. I hate the incompleteness. That we are all incomplete, I hate it with my entire body and being. The world should be complete. The world must change. Then, who will change it? Me, Cyrus. And Team Galactic. Yes, all of you. Together we pored over myths and exposed their secrets. Together we captured legendary Pokémon. And now, Team Galactic has obtained the energy to change the world! The power of dreams is within our grasp! Understand it, fellow members! My long-held dreamworld is on the verge of becoming reality. All those headed to Mt. Coronet, and those who remain here... Though our missions may differ, our hearts beat as one. Let there be glory for Team Galactic!"''

* Before battle
:''"...So you've come. You heard my speech, I take it. Snicker... A big lie, of course. It's true, insofar as my intention is to create a new world. But that world isn't for the likes of Team Galactic. I seek an entirely new world solely for myself. If not, it could never be the complete and perfect world. You've seen my minions of Team Galactic. You yourself must know that they are uniformly useless and incomplete."''

:''"I know why you're here. I can sense it in you. It's about {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, correct? You want to save them... I no longer have any need for them. I am finished with them. If your heart aches to save them, go right ahead. I couldn't care less. It will save me the trouble of disposing them."''

:''"But, I must say... You are a remarkable specimen. Those Pokémon have nothing to do with you, do they? But still you come to rescue them out of pity? Such pitifully useless emotions... It's illogical and irrational. Pity and compassion are products of the weak and faulty human heart. You were compelled to come here by such vacuous sentimentality! I will make you regret paying heed to your heart!"''

* After sending out last Pokémon
:''"My last Pokémon."''

* During battle (less than half HP)
:''"I see... I may lose if this pace continues..."''

* When defeated
:''"Interesting. And quite curious."''

* After being defeated
:''"I see... You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion towards Pokémon."''

:''"...How wasteful... Such emotions are but mere illusions. And, like all illusions, they fade over time until death banishes them forever. That is why I have abandoned all emotions as useless as sentimentality."''

:''"...But that doesn't matter. I doubt you will ever understand my position. That said, I recognize that you are strong and courageous to come alone. This is your reward."''

:''"The Master Ball is the ultimate Poké Ball. It will unfailingly catch any Pokémon in the wild. But it is not anything that I require. Unlike you Trainers, I do not make Pokémon my friends or partners. Unlike other Team Galactic members, I don't use Pokémon as tools. Instead, I make the power of Pokémon my own."''

:''"If you wish to save the Pokémon from the lakes, take the warp panel ahead. I am off to Mt. Coronet. I will ascend the mountain to its peak where destiny awaits me. It is there that I will create my new world..."''

=====Spear Pillar=====
:''"... ... Everything is ready for the creation of a new world. Now, all will end. And everything will begin. With this, the Red Chain made from the crystals of the three lake Pokémon. And this, the Red Chain I replicated with technological means... With these Red Chains I will pry open the portal to another dimension. I command that you unleash your power for me..."''

:''"{{p|Dialga}}, the mythical Pokémon, and the master of time! ...And the other. {{p|Palkia}}, the mythical Pokémon, and the master of space and dimensions!"''

:''"I've waited so long for this moment, Dialga and Palkia. Shaping this world is a double spiral of time and space. Yes, the very things that you have the ability to control! You will do my bidding! I will have your abilities as mine! With the power I wield, I will create an entirely new world! The incomplete and ugly world we have now can disappear. I am resetting everything to zero. Nothing can remain. It is all for making the ultimate world. A world of complete perfection. Nothing so vague and incomplete as spirit can remain."''

:''"...I should have expected as much. {{p|Uxie}}, "The Being of Knowledge." {{p|Azelf}}, "The Being of Willpower." And {{p|Mesprit}}, "The Being of Emotion"..."''

:''"The Pokémon have come to protect Sinnoh? Pathetic and worthless. It takes the three of them, the three lake Pokémon that symbolize spirit, to balance either the Pokémon of time or space. But they can't maintain balance against the two. Not when both Dialga and Palkia are here. Their coming here is in vain. So much meaningless drama. Now, <player>. You've constantly interfered with my plans, but you will be forgiven. After all, there will remain no spirit for all time when I am done. All spirit will disappear. It will be ripped away... From you! From your Pokémon! From those precious to you...! It is time! My dream will be my reality!"''

:''"What is this pressure I feel...? Something...is enraged?"''

:''"Interesting. So, there is a Pokémon that can only appear as a shadow."''

:''"Regardless, the effort is rash and foolish. I have harnessed the powers of Dialga and Palkia..."''

:''"I, Cyrus, won't have any more interferererererere...!"''

=====Distortion World=====
:''"... The shadowy Pokémon isn't here. It abandoned me here, then disappeared somewhere farther down... Was it content to merely interfere with my plan...? Incidentally, do you understand the concept of genes?"''

:''"... If it's true, you've impressed me. Genes can be considered the blueprints of all life-forms. That includes humans and Pokémon alike. Genes are contained in a DNA strand. A DNA strand consists of 2 chains of opposing characteristics in a spiral. If one of the chains were to be broken, the other could replicate it. One or the other cannot exist without its opposite."''

:''"Do you understand where I am going with this? This is a bizarre world. Time doesn't flow. Space isn't stable. Only that shadowy Pokémon lives here. This world is the opposite of our world-- our world I wish to change. It is like the two chains composing the strand of DNA. The two worlds must be balancing each other to remain in existence. Without one, the other cannot exist. The shadowy Pokémon must play a role in keeping the worlds in balance. That is why it must have interfered and brought me here. The shadowy Pokémon must have made this bizarre world. That's why trying to change our world disturbed it and made it reveal itself. But that is all irrelevant. What matters is defeating that Pokémon and making this world disappear. I won't allow it to interfere with me again. With it gone, neither world will be able to revert to its original state..."''

* Before battle
:''"Why should I run and hide from the world and have to wait quietly? My aim is to rid our world of the vague and incomplete thing we call spirit. By freeing ourselves of that, our world can be made complete. That is my justice! No one can interfere!"''

:''"I won't lose! Not to that shadowy Pokémon! Not in any worthless world!"''

* When defeated
:''"I won't accept this! This can't be! Not after all the sacrifices we've made to get this far! What of my new world?! Of my new galaxy?! Was this all a dream to be swept away by your reality?!"''

* After battle
:''"... Don't think that you can defeat or capture that Pokémon. This bizarre world is none other than that Pokémon itself! Capturing it or defeating it will make this world disappear! Very well! Do what you will! Rather than repairing the world, you're going to destroy it for me! Do it. You inherit my legacy."''

* After battle with Giratina
:''"That Pokémon... That shadowy Pokémon was {{tt|captured/defeated|Depends on the outcome, unless player fled}}?! Your doing so means that this irrational world will remain in existence! Does that make it impossible for me to create a new world? Even if I made new Red Chains, the new world can't be made! Why?! What compels you to protect the two worlds? Is spirit, a vague and incomplete thing, so important to you?!"''

:''"'''Silence!''' Enough of your blathering! That's how you justify spirit as something worthwhile?! That is merely humans hoping, deluding themselves that they are happy and safe! The emotions roiling inside me... Rage, hatred, frustration... These ugly emotions arise because of my own incomplete spirit! ...Enough. We will never see eye to eye. This, I promise you. I will break the secrets of the world. With that knowledge, I will create my own complete and perfect world. One day, you will awaken to a world of my creation. A world without spirit."''

* If the player fled from Giratina
:''"That shadowy Pokémon... You quelled its rage by refusing to battle it?! Your doing so means that this irrational world will remain in existence! Does that make it impossible for me to create a new world? Even if I made new Red Chains, the new world can't be made! Why?! What compels you to protect the two worlds? Is spirit, a vague and incomplete thing, so important to you?!"''

:''"'''Silence!''' Enough of your blathering! That's how you justify spirit as something worthwhile?! That is merely humans hoping, deluding themselves that they are happy and safe! The emotions roiling inside me... Rage, hatred, frustration... These ugly emotions arise because of my own incomplete spirit! ...Enough. We will never see eye to eye. This, I promise you. I will break the secrets of the world. With that knowledge, I will create my own complete and perfect world. One day, you will awaken to a world of my creation. A world without spirit."''

==In the anime==
[[File:Cyrus anime.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus in the anime]]
Cyrus made his first appearance in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]'', along with [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]]. It was revealed that he is a rich businessman who has made most of the buildings and libraries throughout [[Sinnoh]]. However, {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} do not know that he is also the Team Galactic leader. Using his businessman alter-ego, he visits the [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]] while the remaining members of [[Team Galactic]] carry out a plan to steal the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Lustrous Orb}} from the Research Center, after having already stolen the {{DL|Type-enhancing item|Adamant Orb}} from its [[Eterna City]] police escort.

He discovers from {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} that they have seen {{p|Azelf}} and {{p|Mesprit}} when the two tell of their encounters with the mysterious Pokémon at [[Lake Verity]] and [[Lake Valor]], which apparently intrigues him.

He appeared again in ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]''. He was seen in Team Galactic's headquarters alongside Saturn and Jupiter as well as [[Charon]]. They were coordinating Mars's mission on [[Iron Island]] and using a beam launched with the [[Spear Key]] to scan energy readings from the [[Spear Pillar]]. However, Mars's machine was destroyed when the scan had reached only 60%, presumably ruining their mission. Despite this, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged.

Cyrus also appeared towards the end of ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', where he requested [[J]]'s services in capturing {{p|Uxie}}, Mesprit and Azelf. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', he takes control of Dialga and Palkia, and steps into a portal created by the two legendary Pokémon. The portal was soon destroyed, leaving Cyrus's fate unknown; however it is implied that the dimension was destroyed by Dialga and Palkia.

He appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in {{TRT}}'s fantasy with all the other members of Team Galactic.

[[File:Cyrus Adventures.png|thumb|220px|Cyrus in Pokémon Adventures]]
Cyrus makes his first appearance in ''[[PS348|A Big Stink Over Stunky]]'' as a silhouette walking down {{rt|207|Sinnoh}} where he receives a package; he is fully revealed after signing the receipt and goes to [[Mt. Coronet]]. When {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} pass through Mt. Coronet he coldly attacks them with his newly evolved Probopass and Magnezone, trapping them underneath a pile of rubble and leaves while stating that they were disturbing sacred ground.

Cyrus later appears at the Celestic ruins where Diamond and Pearl finally meet him in person. He came to the ruins to find information of the Legendary Pokémon Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit. He battles [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] and later, Diamond and Pearl, who had stolen the camera he used to take pictures of the paintings in the ruins. As they battle each other, Pearl has his [[Chatler]] destroy the camera that Cyrus was fighting for. With his camera destroyed and having the information he needed, Cyrus takes his leave and traps the two boys on top of a pillar of stone.

After [[Mars]], [[Jupiter]], and [[Saturn]] arrive from their successful mission to capture the [[Lake guardians]], Cyrus begins the creation of the [[Red Chain]].

After managing to make one Red Chain, Cyrus is attacked by the researcher of the Sinnoh myths and the Sinnoh region Champion, [[Cynthia]]. After a long battle, Cyrus manages to escape with Cynthia and her Garchomp far too exhausted to follow him. When he goes to check on the progress of the second Red Chain’s creation, he finds that Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie have all been freed from their containers. Cyrus, realizing that recapturing them would be impossible and that he has to use his weaker, artificially created Red Chain, furiously flies off to the [[Spear Pillar]].

He arrives at the Spear Pillar where he greeted by his Galactic Commanders who were worried about his injured state. Cyrus tells them to ignore it and stop any intruders from interrupting his ritual to summon the Legendary {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}}. Cyrus manages to summon the two dragon Pokémon and has them fight each other, causing Time and Space to distort in various ways. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter are eventually defeated by the Sinnoh Gym Leaders and they all ambush Cyrus while he has Dialga and Palkia fight each other. Despite his best efforts, Cyrus is unable to stop them from breaking the Red Chain he was using and unleashes his fury onto them.

Later, when Diamond and Pearl go through with their assault on Dialga and Palkia, Cyrus attacks them while under the cover of a thick black {{m|haze}}. He reveals the reason for why he tried to make a new world; while Emotion, Knowledge, and Willpower make up a complete world, the world they live always has one that is lacking compared to the other two and as such, Cyrus aims to create a world without any of these aspects, a world that is perfect.

When Diamond uses his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} to stop Dialga and Palkia from causing anymore space-time anomalies, Cyrus attacks the boy and knocks him off the giant Pokémon. Cyrus states that Diamond wouldn’t be able to understand the reason why he does the things he does but the young boy replies with his own definition of Time and Space that he had learned on his journey with Pearl and Platinum. Cyrus at first ignores his words but quickly notices that Dialga and Palkia have stopped fighting with each other and quickly uses the Red Chain to get them fighting again. With only one Red Chain, Cyrus only has half control over the two dragons; Diamond and Pearl decide to take advantage of this and attack the two dragons with their teams.

Dialga and Palkia, now freed from their controlled status, use their powers to create a sphere of light that pulls Cyrus off the ground and into it. As he floats into the sphere of light, Cyrus looks at the Sinnoh Pokédex holders and realizes that they are a perfect combination of Knowledge (Platinum), Emotion (Diamond), and Willpower (Pearl) and that was the reason he was defeated. He is next seen lying unconscious on the ground where Cynthia decides to take him to the hospital before interrogating him. While he and the unconscious Gym Leaders he had defeated earlier are taken to get medical help an accident caused by [[Charon]]'s machine caused a [[Distortion World|hole]] to appear in the sky where mysterious {{p|Giratina|black tentacles}} grab Dialga, Palkia, and Cyrus into it.

Later, Cyrus appears in the Distortion World, still alive after the battle on Spear Pillar. He is discovered by Diamond, who had been sent there after being hit by one of {{p|Giratina}}'s attacks. After explaining how he ended up there, Diamond asks Cyrus if he knew if there was any way to defeat Giratina. He takes Diamond to an area where Giratina had kept Dialga and Palkia trapped after it dragged them into the Distortion World. Cyrus reveals that his defeat at the Spear Pillar helped him see the error of his ways and he now wants to support Diamond's wishes. Together, they use their Pokémon to break Dialga and Palkia from the mineral that had them captured, freeing them in the process. Afterward, they ride the dragons over to where Pearl is, surprising him due to him not expecting Cyrus to be helping them.

As the battle between the legendary Pokémon continues getting more and more chaotic, everyone begins to gather together. Cyrus listens to everyone realize that even though humans and Pokémon make mistakes, they'll work together to try to fix it. This gives Cyrus a sense of gratitude in his heart, which causes {{p|Shaymin}} to fly into his arms and later join the battle.

After Charon is defeated, Cyrus and his Commanders emerge from the Distortion World unharmed. Charon tries to lie to Cyrus by claiming that he intended to gather the legendary Pokémon for Team Galactic's sake. Cyrus reaches down to Charon, which Saturn and Mars think it means he's going to pinch him. However, Cyrus only takes his machine, and praises Charon for his technological genius. The records reveal that he has been using it since the battle on the Spear Pillar, which angers Saturn into figuring out that he was attempting to use the machine to control Dialga and Palkia into opening a hole to the Distortion World, to which Charon denies.

Cyrus speaks to his four Commanders once more and reveals that he is disbanding Team Galactic. He begins to leave and tells them to do whatever they wish, but an angry Jupiter tells him that without Team Galactic, she, Mars, and Saturn have nowhere else to go. Listening to her wishes, Cyrus takes Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter away with him and thanks Diamond, Pearl, Platinum for their help.

===In the [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]] manga===
[[File:Cyrus DPA.png|thumb|right|Cyrus in Diamond and Pearl Adventure]]
Cyrus is first seen watching a Contest being performed by [[Mitsumi]] in [[Hearthome City]]. He introduces himself as a friend of hers to [[Hareta]] and then leaves after asking Hareta to give her his regards on her performance.

Later, at [[Celestic Town]], Cyrus along with two of his commanders, [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]] arrive at the ruins after Hareta manages to throw a bomb they planted into a safe area. Here, Cyrus introduces himself to Hareta as the leader of Team Galactic and reveals that he is also searching for the Legendary Pokémon {{p|Dialga}}. After revealing his plans, Cyrus makes his leave while Hareta follows him and Mitsumi is left behind to battle Jupiter and Saturn.

After catching up to him, Cyrus offers to let Hareta join him in his operation; Hareta refuses and they begin battling. The two have an intense battle and eventually, Hareta is knocked off of the bridge they were fighting on and is sent into the water below. Cyrus soon mulls over his victory but Hareta suddenly returns from the water and defeats his {{p|Weavile}} with a {{a|Torrent}} powered {{m|Surf}}. Suddenly, Cyrus realizes that he is starting enjoy their battle; in a fit of rage, Cyrus commands his {{p|Gyarados}} to use {{m|Giga Impact}}, destroying the bridge and sending Hareta into water once again. Cyrus then leaves while questioning how he lost control over himself in their battle.

Later, at [[Lake Valor]], Cyrus arrives after Saturn is defeated by Hareta. Disappointed by his failure, Cyrus unceremoniously fires Saturn from Team Galactic and tells him to leave. Noticing that Hareta is still alive after previously defeating him, he is challenged to a battle by the boy and they begin battling. Cyrus almost defeats Hareta again but he quickly loses his advantage once Hareta sets up a well planned move. Before his Gyarados can be defeated by a {{m|Thunder}} fired from Hareta's {{p|Luxio}}, Saturn saves it with his {{p|Rhyperior}}'s {{a|Lightningrod}} and begs for another chance. Suddenly, Hareta defeats Saturn with a {{a|Torrent}} powered-up {{m|Surf}} from his Piplup; Cyrus takes the unconscious Saturn away and states that their battle was a draw.

Later, while Jupiter battles Mitsumi at Lake Acuity, Cyrus sends a phone call to Jupiter where he requests that Mitsumi comes to him. It is eventually revealed that Cyrus had picked up Mitsumi when she was a child and raised her to be Team Galactic's greatest warrior. By holding her beloved {{p|Eevee}} as hostage, Cyrus forces Mitsumi to once again fight for him and makes her battle Hareta. As they battle, Cyrus coldly tries to convince Mitsumi that she is alone in the world and that she only belongs in Team Galactic. Eventually, Hareta manages to break through to Mitsumi and convinces her to fight as a real Trainer instead of a member of Team Galactic.

After Mitsumi is defeated, Cyrus leads Hareta to the room where he holds the three Pokémon of spirit, {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}. Hareta manages to free them from their prison, but Cyrus managed to complete the item he was creating with the three Pokémon, the [[Red Chain]]. Cyrus assumes that Hareta hates him for his actions but is shocked to only find that he pities him instead. Cyrus gives Hareta a Master Ball and tells him to go to Mt. Coronet where they can have one last battle; he then leaves the exploding Galactic Building with Hareta still inside.

Later, at the Spear Pillar, after waiting for the return of Hareta, Cyrus assumes he had died in the explosion and goes on with his plan. With the Red Chain, Cyrus finally summons the Pokémon of Time, {{p|Dialga}} and takes control of it. With Dialga's control over time, Cyrus easily defeats Hareta's Pokémon and he announces his plan to destroy everything to start the world anew. Cyrus commands Dialga to send the world back to its beginning, causing everything revert back to the start of the universe. [[Hareta's Empoleon]] attempts to sacrifices itself to stop Cyrus, against Hareta's wishes, but is stopped by the [[lake guardians]] who saves them and breaks the Red Chain, freeing Dialga from Cyrus's control.

With Dialga freed, Cyrus has been defeated, but suddenly, the other god Pokémon, {{p|Palkia}}, arrives. While Dialga and Palkia fight, Cyrus witnesses Hareta, Mitsumi, and the Gym Leaders attempt to try to stop them, only to fail. Cyrus states that while the imperfect world will end, nothing will remain to replace it. Mitsumi states that Hareta won't let that happen because he is fighting for all of them. Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter come to help them fight Dialga and Palkia; this causes Cyrus to tell them how to defeat the two dragons.

Hareta uses Cyrus's plan and manages to get Dialga to use {{m|Roar of Time}}, stopping it momentarily. With Dialga frozen briefly, Cyrus and the others command their Pokémon to attack Dialga, stopping the fight between the two gods. After the events end, Cyrus disappears along with his commanders. Some time afterwards, Cyrus is captured by Charon, who takes over Team Galactic. When Kaisei accidentally breaks into Cyrus' prison cell in the Team Galactic HQ, he offers to free Cyrus, but Cyrus turns him down, saying that he is waiting to see what Charon plans to do with Team Galactic.

During the battle against Charon in the Team Galactic HQ, Mitsumi and the three Commanders free Cyrus, and they set out to the Distortion World to fight Charon. Cyrus and the others, seeing the battle against Giratina in the forest arrive to assist, and Cyrus is last seen fighting Giratina with the others.

Later, when Charon escapes to Stark Mountain hoping to capture Heatran, Agent Looker stops him, claiming that Cyrus has disbanded Team Galactic.

==Names==
His Japanese name, {{wp|Akagi}}, is a common surname in Japan, which may indicate that, like [[Giovanni]], his name in Japan is merely his last name, leaving his first unknown. "Akagi" means "red castle", "red tree", or "red future", the last of which may reference the many deaths that would have taken place if his scheme had come to fruition. It may also refer to the [[Red Chain]] which Cyrus needs to summon the legendary Pokémon, {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{p|Palkia}}, at the [[Spear Pillar]]. It could also be in reference to Planet X, also known as the Red Planet, Nibiru, Wormwood, Quetzalcoatl, and many more names. It is an apocalyptic conspiracy, but there are many different theories about what exactly it is. There is also a volcano called Akagi in the real-world [[wp:Kantō region|Kanto region]] of Japan.

The majority of Cyrus's localized names refer to the Sun; this fits in with the Commanders' planetary naming scheme, and may be a reference to how Cyrus would figuratively hold the Sun's position as center of his new world. The Korean and Chinese names contain both a reference to red, like the Japanese one, and to the Sun, like the localized Western ones.

==Trivia==
* The ''aka'' that appears in his Japanese name may refer to the color red, as a counterpart to [[Cynthia]], whose Japanese name refers to ''shiro'', white.
* In the games, Cyrus's Pokémon are all either of {{type|Dark}} and/or {{type|Flying}} (his Honchkrow is both). Also all of Cyrus's Pokémon are dual-types, and they all have a weakness to {{t|Rock}}.
* Until [[Charon]]'s introduction, Cyrus was the only one of the four major characters of Team Galactic that does not share a name with a planet. Charon's Japanese namesake, {{wp|Pluto}}, is a {{wp|dwarf planet}}, but was considered a planet between its 1930 discovery and 2006. {{wp|Charon (moon)|Charon}} is the largest of Pluto's five moons. This makes Cyrus the only named Team Galactic member who is not named for a solar system object (though his English and German names are derived from one).
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous teams|villainous team]] to appear in the opening of a {{game3|Platinum|game}}.
* Although there are only three red gems visible on each of {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, Cyrus will recreate the Red Chain as many times as the player loses to him.
* Cyrus is the first leader of a [[villainous team]] to have his age confirmed. [[Looker]] confirms his age in the Team Galactic Headquarters in [[Veilstone City]].
* Cyrus shares {{p|Honchkrow|a Pokémon}} with Giovanni, another leader of a villainous gang, though the latter was never shown with one until the release of {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
** Additionally, {{adv|Silver}}, a counterpart to Giovanni's {{ga|Silver|own son}}, also possesses a Honchkrow.
*** Silver and his counterparts own every single Pokémon Cyrus owns in the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl versions: Weavile, Honchkrow and Gyarados in Pokémon Adventures and Crobat in the games, as well as Weavile's pre-evolution, Sneasel.
* In both the original Japanese version and English dub of the anime, Cyrus's voice actors have previously portrayed leaders of other villainous teams. [[Sean Schemmel]] played [[Team Aqua]] head [[Archie]], and [[Kenta Miyake]] also voices {{an|Giovanni}}, the boss of [[Team Rocket]].
