Sird
Sird (Japanese: サキ Saki) was one of The Three Beasts of Team Rocket in the the Pokémon Adventures manga as part of the FireRed & LeafGreen arc.
In the FireRed & LeafGreen arc, Sird worked with Giovanni and the other Beasts on the Sevii Islands and fought and defeated Lorelei on Seven Island. Later, she fell from Team Rocket's helicopter after it was taken over by Carr, but she (unlike Orm) survived. She later tried to catch Deoxys by disabling it with an energy beam launched from her Poké Ball, but was foiled when Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and Silver (along with Mewtwo) used their bodies to block the beam from Deoxys, who escaped. However, to their surprise, the five Pokédex holders' bodies were turned to stone as a result. Having one of Lorelei's ice cuffs pinned and rapidly expanding from her left leg, she fled after remarking that this new gain is nothing short of capturing Deoxys as she had intended.
Later, after the climax of the Emerald arc, Archie reveals that Sird temporarily saved his and Maxie's lives just as they were about to be killed while fleeing in an air-car, at the end of the Ruby & Sapphire arc. The means that she did this are unknown; it is unclear if she somehow manipulated time or transported Archie and Maxie to some other location. She offered him and Maxie the armor and sword that would later transform Archie into Guile Hideout, claimed they would give eternal life, and caused Archie to kill Maxie. Strangely enough, after she gave the armor to Archie, she quoted Veilstone's Myth, which similarly refers to a man with a sword.
It is unknown what else Sird has done, but with Giovanni badly burned in an ailing condition, she may have fought to gain back control over Team Rocket in Giovanni's favor, but she inevitably lost to the Rocket Executives, and she has yet to be shown in future chapters.
