'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is the boss of [[Team Galactic]], a man with the aim of destroying and then recreating the entire universe in his image, without emotions, so that there may be no conflict.
'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is the boss of [[Team Galactic]]. He aims to create a world without spirit for himself. He is the only character in the games to have the {{DL|Pokémon Trainer|Trainer class}}es '''Galactic Boss'''{{sup/4|DPPt}}/'''Team Galactic Boss'''{{sup/8|BDSP}} (Japanese: '''ギンガだんボス''' ''Team Galactic Boss'') and '''Team Galactic''' (Japanese: '''{{j|ギンガだん}}''' ''Team Galactic'').


==In the games==
==In the core series games==
As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the nihlistic, 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 antisocial, 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. His grandfather, who lives on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}} in {{game|Platinum}}, regrets not taking him in during his time of need.
As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the nihilistic main antagonist of the [[Sinnoh]] games, with the ultimate goal of summoning {{p|Dialga}} and/or {{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, could be the end of 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. It is also notable that Cyrus is very persistent in order to reach his dream. After being defeated one final time by the player, he ominously hints that he will someday make his ultimate goal into a reality. In the [[Distortion World]] in Platinum, it is questionable what happened to him, as he simply walks away, deeper into the world, and is not encountered on the player's return visit.


==={{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}===
In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}} and {{g|Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl}}, the {{player}} first meets Cyrus in [[Mount Coronet]], but he does not battle them, 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|Team Galactic Grunt}} and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]]. He is later fully identified as the boss of Team Galactic when the player raids the [[Team Galactic HQ]] and meets him in his office. After being defeated, he gives the player a [[Master Ball]], claiming he doesn't need it for what he's planning, and telling the player to free the captured [[lake guardians]] if they so wish, as they've already served their purpose to him. At the [[Spear Pillar]], Cyrus uses the [[Red Chain]] to summon {{p|Dialga}}{{sup/4|D}}{{sup/8|BD}} or {{p|Palkia}}{{sup/4|P}}{{sup/8|SP}}, intending to use its divine power to create a new world, where he will be a deity. However, the lake guardians stop the creation process and destroy the Red Chain, thwarting Cyrus's plan. Flying into a rage, Cyrus battles the player one more time. After being defeated, he claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]]. In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Cyrus can be encountered and fought at the {{si|Battle Tower}} during the post-game.
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 [[Galactic Grunt]] and investigates the ruins in [[Celestic Town]].


Upon being defeated at Spear Pillar, Cyrus claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to [[Saturn]].
In {{v2|Platinum}}, Cyrus's role is expanded a bit, 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, where he also reveals himself as the boss of Teams Galactic. At the Team Galactic HQ, the player and [[Looker]] witness Cyrus giving a speech to all of his underlings before the player meets him in his office. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar with his two Red Chains, he is taken by {{p|Giratina}} to the Distortion World, where he eventually battles the player one last time. After the player battles Giratina, Cyrus stays in the Distortion World, still vowing to create a world without spirit.
====First battle====
 
{{Party
An [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] version of Cyrus appears as a member of [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] in {{g|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}. He is one of the second pair of bosses the player must face, along with [[Lysandre]]. Like the other bosses, this Cyrus was summoned from a world where his plans succeeded. However, as he explains to the player, he was engulfed by a mysterious shadow during his moment of victory and transported to the game's world. At first, he appears confused about his location, asking the player if he has reached the new world. No matter what the player's response is, he senses that the player possesses a strong spirit and concludes that he has not reached his desired world. The [[Rotom Pokédex]] catches his attention, and he interacts with it, leading him to realize that even the Pokédex has a spirit in the game's world. Resolving to remove the human spirit from the world he is in and bring it to a perfect state, Cyrus challenges the player, using Dialga{{sup/7|US}}/Palkia{{sup/7|UM}} as part of his team. After losing, he realizes upon Rotom's suggestion that the source of the player's strength is their friendship with all Pokémon, and promises that he will not do anything to the game's world, deciding instead to return to the perfect world that he created. Cyrus gives the player the [[Galactic Key]], which allows them to undo one of the locks on [[Giovanni]]'s headquarters. He is later returned to his original world by [[Colress]] off-screen.

====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:
''I see... I may lose if this pace continues...''
 
*When defeated:
''Interesting and quite curious.''
 
*After battle:
''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}}/{{p|Palkia}} the mythical Pokémon and the master of time/space! This will bring about the destruction of all things. With everything gone, there will be no fighting and no strife. Can you feel time/space distorting? Only I can choose to stop it. This is the mythical Pokémon that created Sinnoh! Dialga/Palkia the ancient deity of time/space! 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/Palkia... 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:
''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 battle:
''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}}===
[[Image:CyrusPlatopen.png|thumb|right|Cyrus in the opening of Platinum]]
Cyrus has, in a way, more of a role in {{v2|Platinum}}, as he's first met at [[Lake Verity]] near the start of the game. He is also met in front of the statue in [[Eterna City]] and in [[Mt. Coronet]]. Unlike before, he is first battled in the ruins of [[Celestic Town]] and again at their base in [[Veilstone City]]. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at 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.

=====Team Galactic HQ=====
==In the spin-off games==
*Speech:
===[[Pokémon Masters EX]]===
''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!''
{{main|Cyrus (Masters)}}
Cyrus forms a [[sync pair]] with {{p|Palkia}} and {{p|Darkrai}} in [[Pokémon Masters EX]]. Cyrus became a playable sync pair on August 17, 2020.


*Before battle:
In this game, Cyrus is from the [[Pokémon multiverse|alternate universe]] where his plan succeeded, which was introduced in {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon}}, as Cyrus has never heard of the [[Distortion World]] despite {{mas|Cynthia}} saying that Cyrus was defeated there. Cyrus also said that he was about to use {{p|Dialga}} and Palkia to remake the world when he was interrupted by {{p|Hoopa}}'s ring. The whereabouts of Cyrus from this game's continuity are currently unknown.
''...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!''

*When defeated:
==Quotes==
''Interesting. And quite curious.''
{{main|Cyrus/Quotes}}


*After battle:
==In the anime==
''I see... You are indeed strong. And the basis of your power is your compassion towards Pokémon.''
===Main series===
[[File:Cyrus anime.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
====''[[Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl]]''====
Cyrus is a rich businessman who made most of the buildings and libraries throughout [[Sinnoh]]. Using his businessman alter-ego, he frequented the [[Celestic Town Historical Research Center]], becoming good friends with {{an|Cynthia}} and [[Professor Carolina]], while he undertook research on Sinnoh mythology for his and [[Team Galactic]]'s ultimate goal, to create a new world.


''...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.''
Cyrus debuted in ''[[DP096|Losing Its Lustrous!]]'' and ''[[DP097|Double Team Turnover!]]''. He was presented as a businessman at the time, while {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} did not know that he was also the Team Galactic leader. Meanwhile, the remaining members of Team Galactic carried out a plan to steal the [[Lustrous Orb]] from the Celestic Research Center, after having already stolen the [[Adamant Orb]] from its [[Eterna City]] police escort.
[[File:Cyrus DP096.png|thumb|left|220px|Cyrus as a businessman in his debut]]
He discovered that {{Ash}} and {{an|Dawn}} saw {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Azelf}} and {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Mesprit}}, respectively, when the two recalled their encounters with them at [[Lake Verity]] and [[Lake Valor]]; this apparently intrigued him.


''...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.''
In ''[[DP111|Saving the World From Ruins!]]'', Cyrus was seen in [[Team Galactic HQ]] 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, the scan only reached 60% after Ash and his friends intervened. Despite the setback, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged as the information received affirmed that Spear Pillar was somewhere on [[Mount Coronet]].


''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.''
Towards the end of ''[[DP150|Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!]]'', Cyrus requested [[J]]'s services in capturing the trio of {{an|Lake guardians}}. In ''[[DP151|The Needs of the Three!]]'', he watched J's mission from Team Galactic's headquarters alongside [[Charon]]. Later, he supervised Charon's experiment to bring the captured lake guardians under their control with the [[Red Chain]] and revealed himself as Team Galactic's boss to Ash, Dawn, and {{an|Brock}} when they teleported into the laboratory. In ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]'', he took control of {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} at Spear Pillar, and stepped into a [[dimension]]al portal created by the two [[Legendary Pokémon]]. Cyrus stepped into the portal to establish his utopian world before the portal was destroyed by the freed Dialga and Palkia.


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

====''[[Pokémon Journeys: The Series]]''====
''... ... 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...''
[[File:Cyrus memorial.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus's memorial in Team Galactic HQ]]
Some time after the events of ''The Battle Finale of Legend!'', Team Galactic escaped from police custody and reconstituted itself to try and rescue Cyrus from the other world by reopening the portal. In ''[[JNS01|The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1)]]'', a memorial image of Cyrus was seen on display in Team Galactic HQ as the Commanders set their plan into motion. He appeared in flashbacks in the two [[JNS02|following]] [[JNS03|episodes]]. Ultimately, Team Galactic managed to briefly reopen the portal but failed to rescue Cyrus, and were placed back under arrest.


''{{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!''
====Character====
Cyrus is a master manipulator who comes across as affable and intelligent. Though he is noticeably tense, even when in his businessman alter-ego. He became increasingly irate and stubbornly determined to achieve his goal of establishing a new world. Fixated by details, he spent extensive time and resources to ensure his plan came to fruition. [[Team Galactic]] was ultimately an enabling factor of his grand vision, and he gathered skilled individuals like [[Charon]] and the {{tc|Commander}}s to achieve it. His selfish ambitions and manipulative efforts were finally revealed to everyone as he stepped forward to claim control over the new world for only himself in ''[[DP152|The Battle Finale of Legend!]]''.


''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.''
Cyrus' legacy was present even long after his disappearance, where the remaining members of Team Galactic went to the last consequences looking for resources in order to bring him back.


''...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 anime depiction of Cyrus largely omits the details of his past in the games (namely his growing up in an emotionally abusive household and that forming the basis of his desire to remake the entire world).


''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!''

''... 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.

===Pokémon Generations===
[[File:Cyrus PG.png|thumb|250px|Cyrus in [[Pokémon Generations]]]]
Cyrus appeared in ''[[PG11|The New World]]'' at the [[Spear Pillar]], where he summoned {{p|Dialga}} and {{p|Palkia}} and took control of them using the [[Red Chain]] in order to make them create a new world. However, his plans were disrupted by {{p|Giratina}}, who freed Dialga and Palkia and dragged Cyrus into the [[Distortion World]]. After waking up, Cyrus realized that the Distortion World matched the world he sought. He then contacted a concerned [[Saturn]], telling him to not go looking for him.


''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...''

He is fully revealed after signing the receipt and goes to [[Mount Coronet]]. When {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} pass through Mount 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.


He appeared briefly in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' in [[Team Rocket]]'s fantasy with all the other members of Team Galactic.
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 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 {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|Dialga}} and {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|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 on them.
===''[[Pokémon Adventures]]''===
[[File:Cyrus Adventures.png|thumb|right|220px|Cyrus in Pokémon Adventures]]
Cyrus makes his first appearance in [[PS348|Vs. Stunky]] as a silhouette walking down [[Sinnoh Route 207|Route 207]] where he receives an unknown package, he is fully revealed when he signs the receipt and states that he is going to [[Mt. Coronet]]. In [[PS349|Vs. Probopass and Magnezone]] 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.


After [[Paka]] and [[Uji]] are sent to another dimension by a machine operated by [[Saturn]] Cyrus appears and physically reprimands him for using such a device by pinching his arm (an act that is apparently known throughout Team Galactic as other members are seen trying their best to complete a mission in fear of suffering an arm pinch). He asks him if their plan to get money for the completion of their Galactic Bomb is complete, when Saturn states that he hasn't gotten the money, Cyrus continues pinching his arm.
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.


In [[PS368|Vs. Probopass and Magnezone I]] Cyrus appears at the Celestic ruins where {{adv|Diamond}}, {{adv|Pearl}}, and {{adv|Platinum}} finally meet him in person. At the ruins he battles [[Cynthia's Garchomp]] with his Pokémon, using her attacks to blow open a hole in the ruins. In the ruins he finds paintings of the legendary Pokémon Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit while the Sinnoh Pokédex holders and Cynthia’s Grandmother try to escape. Cyrus is confronted by Diamond who had stayed behind when the others attempted to flee the scene, Cyrus is asked by the young boy if he is the leader of Team Galactic but he just ignores him and uses a camera to take pictures of the paintings. When Diamond tells him that he shouldn't be looking at the cave paintings Cyrus coldly sends him flying with a {{m|Magnet Bomb}} from his Pokémon but has his camera is stolen by Diamond's Lax.  
When Diamond uses his newly acquired {{p|Regigigas}} to stop Dialga and Palkia from causing any more 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.


Cyrus battles Diamond and Pearl for his stolen camera using his Magnezone's magnets to attract every metal objects, even ones in the ground, to it. Before the camera flies to Magnezone, Pearl's [[Chahiko]] swoops down and steals it but Cyrus pins it to the ground with {{m|Gravity}}. Cyrus states that their battle is pointless due to the fact they’re fighting over sacred ground, he tells them that he aims to create a conflict free world and officially introduces himself to the boys. Cyrus, impressed with the boys skills, offers a place in Team Galactic to Diamond and Pearl, but they refuse and Pearl answers his offer by destroying the camera.  
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 {{DL|Pokémon of Myth (Adventures)|Giratina|black tentacles}} grab Dialga, Palkia, and Cyrus into it.


Cyrus mulls over Pearl's answer and responds with his own answer, by having a pillar of stone rise up from the ground, trapping the both of them. Cyrus, feeling that he's been there long enough, decides to take his leave but not before praising Diamond's emotions and Pearl's willpower, he states that it would be better if they had knowledge; he then leaves the vicinity with his Air Car.  
====={{MangaArc|Platinum}}=====
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.


In [[PS401|Vs. Buizel I]] after Mesprit, Azelf, and Uxie are successfully captured by the Galactic Commanders Cyrus tells his [[Charon|scientist]] to begin the construction of the [[Red Chain]]. In [[PS402|Vs. Buizel II]] Cyrus gathers his grunts and commanders in one room and gives a speech, a speech on how he hates the incomplete world he lives in, he states that there are people who will change the world and those people are Cyrus himself and the members of Team Galactic. In [[PS404|Vs. Elekid]] Cyrus begins the construction of the Red Chain stating that two will needed to be made in order to capture {{p|Dialga|time}} and {{p|Palkia|space}} and waits until Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit have rested before extracting more jewels for the second chain.
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.


In [[PS406|Vs. Honchkrow]] the Red Chain has been successfully created when Cyrus receives a video from the Galactic Commanders who state that intruders have broken through their guard posts surrounding Veilstone and are infiltrating the HQ, Cyrus just tells them to ignore it and that he will meet them at the summit of the [[Spear Pillar]] when the Red Chain has been completed. Cyrus is then surprised as the wall behind him is suddenly blown open, the culprit introduces herself as researcher of the Sinnoh region myths, Cynthia, the two immediately begin battling.
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 laughs as his Honchkrow falls down defeated from fighting her Spiritomb and reveals that he knows that Cynthia is no mere researcher, but is in fact the Sinnoh League Champion, surprising her in the process. They continue their battle and one by one their Pokémon fall until only Cynthia is left with her Garchomp and attempts to finish him with a powerful {{m|Draco Meteor}}. Cyrus and his Gyarados are hit by the powerful move but, to Cynthia’s surprise emerge hurt but still conscious. Cyrus states that due to Cynthia's anger it caused her and Garchomp to lose focus, thus causing Garchomp's Draco Meteor weaker than it should have been. Cyrus states that their exciting battle has come to an end and that the second Red Chain should be complete right about now and takes his leave, leaving the Champion alone and too weak to follow him.
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, and Platinum for their help.


Cyrus then goes to check on the progress of the second Red Chain's creation but sees that Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum have managed to free Mesprit, Azelf, and Uxie. He states that capturing the three a second time would be impossible and that he has only one option; use the second artificial Red Chain which is weaker than the real one but still has the same abilities. He then sets off on his Magnezone to the Spear Pillar, furious at what has happened.
====Pokémon====
 
He later arrives at the Spear Pillar and is greeted by [[Jupiter]], [[Mars]], and [[Saturn]] who are worried about his current condition, Cyrus just walks up the stairs to the Spear Pillar's peak and tells them to prevent anyone from disturbing his ritual. While the Galactic Commanders fend off their [[Gardenia|in]][[Roark|tru]][[Fantina|ders]], Cyrus begins the ritual and summons the legendary Pokémon Dialga and Palkia.
 
As the Commanders battle the Gym leaders Cyrus begins his plan, he orders the two dragons to being fighting each other causing Time and Space itself to distort. Events begin repeating themselves and going into one location leads to another and Cyrus begins tearing up at the thought that his plans have finally come to fruition. His joy quickly goes away as he finds himself surrounded by the Gym Leaders Roark, Gardenia, Maylene, Crasher Wake, Fantina, and Candice who have already defeated the Commanders and begin to attack the Red Chain. He angrily attacks them with his Pokémon but they are unable to stop the Gym Leader’s Pokémon in time and the Red Chain is broken, the sphere energy created by Dialga and Palkia rises up and is shot into the sky and explodes. Despite the Gym Leaders breaking the Red Chain, Dialga and Palkia continue fighting and they question why, Cyrus begins explaining that even with the Red Chain broken, it will not stop them from fighting. As he holds the broken remains of the Red Chain in his hands his anger reaches a boiling point and he furiously attacks the Gym Leaders.

===Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!===
[[File:Cyrus DPA.png|thumb|220px|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, [[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 begins to mull 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 to enjoy their battle; in a fit of rage and confusion, Cyrus commands his {{p|Gyarados}} to use {{m|Giga Impact}}, destroying the bridge and sending Hareta into the water once again, this time unconscious. 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 {{TP|Hareta|Luxio}}, Saturn saves it with his {{p|Rhyperior}}'s {{a|Lightningrod}} and begs for another chance. Suddenly, Hareta defeats Saturn with a Torrent powered-up Surf from his Piplup; Cyrus takes the unconscious Saturn away and states that their battle was a draw while forgiving Saturn for his loss.
 
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}} 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 Mount Coronet where they can have one last battle; he then leaves the self-destructing 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 {{p|Empoleon}} 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 to the start of the universe. [[Hareta's Empoleon]] attempts to sacrifice itself to stop Cyrus, against Hareta's wishes, but is stopped by the [[lake guardians]] who save everyone and break 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; Cyrus then explains to 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 all of their Pokémon to attack Dialga simultaneously, 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.


Gyarados's known moves are {{m|Dragon Dance}}, {{m|Giga Impact}}, {{m|Twister}}, and {{m|Hydro Pump}}.}}
Later, when Charon escapes to Stark Mountain hoping to capture Heatran, Agent Looker stops him, claiming that Cyrus has disbanded Team Galactic.


===''[[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!]]''===
{{spoilers}}
Cyrus first appears in volume 2, watching [[Mitsumi]]'s contest. He tells [[Hareta]] that he is an old friend of Mitsumi's. His next appearance is in Celestic Town at the ruins, where his name and the objectives of [[Team Galactic]] are revealed. Hareta later engages him in a battle, Weavile versus Piplup. During it he realizes he is actually enjoying the battle, causing him to panic and send out his Gyarados. He then proceeds to command Gyarados to shatter the bridge they were battling on, sending Hareta and Piplup into the water.

To make sure Mitsumi cooperates, he would torture Eevee every time she disobeyed him. After Hareta defeats Mitsumi, {{OBP|Jun|DPA}} and his {{p|Dragonite}} take Eevee away from Cyrus and return him to his trainer.


==Names==
None of Eevee's moves are known.}}
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.

==Names==
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 the 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.  
 
His Russian name, aside from it referencing Cyrus, also was based on Sirius, which was the name of a star within the Canis Major constellation, fitting with the celestial naming scheme.

Cyrus (Japanese: アカギ Akagi) is the boss of Team Galactic. He aims to create a world without spirit for himself. He is the only character in the games to have the Trainer classes Galactic BossDPPt/Team Galactic BossBDSP (Japanese: ギンガだんボス Team Galactic Boss) and Team Galactic (Japanese: ギンガだん Team Galactic).

In the core series games

As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the nihilistic main antagonist of the Sinnoh games, with the ultimate goal of summoning Dialga and/or 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, could be the end of fighting in the world, which lead to his plan and actions during the storyline in Sinnoh. His grandfather, who lives on Route 228 in Pokémon Platinum, regrets not taking him in during his time of need. It is also notable that Cyrus is very persistent in order to reach his dream. After being defeated one final time by the player, he ominously hints that he will someday make his ultimate goal into a reality. In the Distortion World in Platinum, it is questionable what happened to him, as he simply walks away, deeper into the world, and is not encountered on the player's return visit.

In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl and Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, the player first meets Cyrus in Mount Coronet, but he does not battle them, 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 Team Galactic Grunt and investigates the ruins in Celestic Town. He is later fully identified as the boss of Team Galactic when the player raids the Team Galactic HQ and meets him in his office. After being defeated, he gives the player a Master Ball, claiming he doesn't need it for what he's planning, and telling the player to free the captured lake guardians if they so wish, as they've already served their purpose to him. At the Spear Pillar, Cyrus uses the Red Chain to summon DialgaDBD or PalkiaPSP, intending to use its divine power to create a new world, where he will be a deity. However, the lake guardians stop the creation process and destroy the Red Chain, thwarting Cyrus's plan. Flying into a rage, Cyrus battles the player one more time. After being defeated, he claims he will have revenge and disappears. His assets and duties are left to Saturn. In Pokémon Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, Cyrus can be encountered and fought at the Battle Tower during the post-game.

In Platinum, Cyrus's role is expanded a bit, 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, where he also reveals himself as the boss of Teams Galactic. At the Team Galactic HQ, the player and Looker witness Cyrus giving a speech to all of his underlings before the player meets him in his office. After summoning both Dialga and Palkia at the Spear Pillar with his two Red Chains, he is taken by Giratina to the Distortion World, where he eventually battles the player one last time. After the player battles Giratina, Cyrus stays in the Distortion World, still vowing to create a world without spirit.

An alternate universe version of Cyrus appears as a member of Team Rainbow Rocket in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon. He is one of the second pair of bosses the player must face, along with Lysandre. Like the other bosses, this Cyrus was summoned from a world where his plans succeeded. However, as he explains to the player, he was engulfed by a mysterious shadow during his moment of victory and transported to the game's world. At first, he appears confused about his location, asking the player if he has reached the new world. No matter what the player's response is, he senses that the player possesses a strong spirit and concludes that he has not reached his desired world. The Rotom Pokédex catches his attention, and he interacts with it, leading him to realize that even the Pokédex has a spirit in the game's world. Resolving to remove the human spirit from the world he is in and bring it to a perfect state, Cyrus challenges the player, using DialgaUS/PalkiaUM as part of his team. After losing, he realizes upon Rotom's suggestion that the source of the player's strength is their friendship with all Pokémon, and promises that he will not do anything to the game's world, deciding instead to return to the perfect world that he created. Cyrus gives the player the Galactic Key, which allows them to undo one of the locks on Giovanni's headquarters. He is later returned to his original world by Colress off-screen.

Cyrus forms a sync pair with Palkia and Darkrai in Pokémon Masters EX. Cyrus became a playable sync pair on August 17, 2020.

In this game, Cyrus is from the alternate universe where his plan succeeded, which was introduced in Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, as Cyrus has never heard of the Distortion World despite Cynthia saying that Cyrus was defeated there. Cyrus also said that he was about to use Dialga and Palkia to remake the world when he was interrupted by Hoopa's ring. The whereabouts of Cyrus from this game's continuity are currently unknown.

Quotes

In the anime

Main series

Cyrus in the anime

Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl

Cyrus is a rich businessman who made most of the buildings and libraries throughout Sinnoh. Using his businessman alter-ego, he frequented the Celestic Town Historical Research Center, becoming good friends with Cynthia and Professor Carolina, while he undertook research on Sinnoh mythology for his and Team Galactic's ultimate goal, to create a new world.

Cyrus debuted in Losing Its Lustrous! and Double Team Turnover!. He was presented as a businessman at the time, while Ash and his friends did not know that he was also the Team Galactic leader. Meanwhile, the remaining members of Team Galactic carried out a plan to steal the Lustrous Orb from the Celestic Research Center, after having already stolen the Adamant Orb from its Eterna City police escort.

Cyrus as a businessman in his debut

He discovered that Ash and Dawn saw Azelf and Mesprit, respectively, when the two recalled their encounters with them at Lake Verity and Lake Valor; this apparently intrigued him.

In Saving the World From Ruins!, Cyrus was seen in Team Galactic HQ 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, the scan only reached 60% after Ash and his friends intervened. Despite the setback, Cyrus did not appear to be discouraged as the information received affirmed that Spear Pillar was somewhere on Mount Coronet.

Towards the end of Unlocking the Red Chain of Events!, Cyrus requested J's services in capturing the trio of Lake guardians. In The Needs of the Three!, he watched J's mission from Team Galactic's headquarters alongside Charon. Later, he supervised Charon's experiment to bring the captured lake guardians under their control with the Red Chain and revealed himself as Team Galactic's boss to Ash, Dawn, and Brock when they teleported into the laboratory. In The Battle Finale of Legend!, he took control of Dialga and Palkia at Spear Pillar, and stepped into a dimensional portal created by the two Legendary Pokémon. Cyrus stepped into the portal to establish his utopian world before the portal was destroyed by the freed Dialga and Palkia.

He appeared briefly in Memories are Made of Bliss! in Team Rocket's fantasy, along with all of the other members of Team Galactic.

Pokémon Journeys: The Series

Cyrus's memorial in Team Galactic HQ

Some time after the events of The Battle Finale of Legend!, Team Galactic escaped from police custody and reconstituted itself to try and rescue Cyrus from the other world by reopening the portal. In The Arceus Chronicles (Part 1), a memorial image of Cyrus was seen on display in Team Galactic HQ as the Commanders set their plan into motion. He appeared in flashbacks in the two following episodes. Ultimately, Team Galactic managed to briefly reopen the portal but failed to rescue Cyrus, and were placed back under arrest.

Character

Cyrus is a master manipulator who comes across as affable and intelligent. Though he is noticeably tense, even when in his businessman alter-ego. He became increasingly irate and stubbornly determined to achieve his goal of establishing a new world. Fixated by details, he spent extensive time and resources to ensure his plan came to fruition. Team Galactic was ultimately an enabling factor of his grand vision, and he gathered skilled individuals like Charon and the Commanders to achieve it. His selfish ambitions and manipulative efforts were finally revealed to everyone as he stepped forward to claim control over the new world for only himself in The Battle Finale of Legend!.

Cyrus' legacy was present even long after his disappearance, where the remaining members of Team Galactic went to the last consequences looking for resources in order to bring him back.

The anime depiction of Cyrus largely omits the details of his past in the games (namely his growing up in an emotionally abusive household and that forming the basis of his desire to remake the entire world).

The three Pokémon first appeared in their physical forms when J was tasked to capture them for Team Galactic. Using fragments of the Red Chain, Cyrus was able to gain control of the three of them and use them to call forth Dialga and Palkia on the Spear Pillar. They were later set free from their control by Ash's and his friends' Pokémon.

Pokémon Generations

Cyrus appeared in The New World at the Spear Pillar, where he summoned Dialga and Palkia and took control of them using the Red Chain in order to make them create a new world. However, his plans were disrupted by Giratina, who freed Dialga and Palkia and dragged Cyrus into the Distortion World. After waking up, Cyrus realized that the Distortion World matched the world he sought. He then contacted a concerned Saturn, telling him to not go looking for him.

History

Diamond & Pearl arc

Cyrus debuts in A Big Stink Over Stunky as a silhouette walking down Route 207, where he receives a package. He is fully revealed after signing the receipt and goes to Mount Coronet. When Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum pass through Mount 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 Dialga and 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 on 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 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 Regigigas to stop Dialga and Palkia from causing any more 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 hole to appear in the sky where mysterious black tentacles grab Dialga, Palkia, and Cyrus into it.

Platinum arc

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 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 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, and Platinum for their help.

Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure!

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, 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 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 begins to mull over his victory, but Hareta suddenly returns from the water and defeats his Weavile with a Torrent-powered Surf. Suddenly, Cyrus realizes that he is starting to enjoy their battle; in a fit of rage and confusion, Cyrus commands his Gyarados to use Giga Impact, destroying the bridge and sending Hareta into the water once again, this time unconscious. 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 Thunder fired from Hareta's Luxio, Saturn saves it with his Rhyperior's Lightningrod and begs for another chance. Suddenly, Hareta defeats Saturn with a Torrent powered-up Surf from his Piplup; Cyrus takes the unconscious Saturn away and states that their battle was a draw while forgiving Saturn for his loss.

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 Eevee 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, Uxie, Mesprit, and 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 Mount Coronet where they can have one last battle; he then leaves the self-destructing 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, Dialga, and takes control of it. With Dialga's control over time, Cyrus easily defeats Hareta's Empoleon 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 to the start of the universe. Hareta's Empoleon attempts to sacrifice itself to stop Cyrus, against Hareta's wishes, but is stopped by the lake guardians who save everyone and break the Red Chain, freeing Dialga from Cyrus's control.

With Dialga freed, Cyrus has been defeated, but suddenly, the other god Pokémon, 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; Cyrus then explains to them how to defeat the two dragons.

Hareta uses Cyrus's plan and manages to get Dialga to use Roar of Time, stopping it momentarily. With Dialga frozen briefly, Cyrus and the others command all of their Pokémon to attack Dialga simultaneously, 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.

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:
  • 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, Pluto, is a dwarf planet, but was considered a planet between its 1930 discovery and 2006. Charon is the largest of Pluto's five moons. This makes Cyrus the only named Team Galactic member who is not directly named for a solar system object (though his English and German names are derived from one, and to a lesser extent the Chinese, Korean, and Russian names, the last of which resembled the constellation Sirius)
  • Cyrus is the first leader of a villainous team to appear in the opening of a game.
  • Although there are only three red gems visible on each of Uxie, Mesprit, and 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 at 27. Looker confirms his age in the Team Galactic Headquarters in Veilstone City in Platinum.
  • 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 Giovanni, the boss of Team Rocket.
  • Cyrus is the first villainous team boss to use his own signature battle theme, as all the themes Giovanni uses up to Generation IV are shared with multiple other Trainers, and Archie and Maxie share a common battle theme with each other.
  • In Platinum, Cyrus's highest-leveled Pokémon flips from being Murkrow in his first battle and Honchkrow in his second to Weavile in his third battle. This is not the case in Diamond and Pearl.
  • Although Cyrus himself does not appear in Pokémon Legends: Arceus, he and his plans to create a new world were given an indirect mention via the post-game antagonist.

Names

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 the 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.

His Russian name, aside from it referencing Cyrus, also was based on Sirius, which was the name of a star within the Canis Major constellation, fitting with the celestial naming scheme.
