'''Cyrus''' (Japanese: '''アカギ''' ''Akagi'') is the boss of [[Team Galactic]] | '''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''). | ||

As the boss of Team Galactic, Cyrus is the 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. | |||

In {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}, the player first meets | 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 alongside [[Mars]] at the {{si|Battle Tower}} during the post-game. | ||
In {{ | In {{game|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. There, he divulges that his true intention is to create a new world solely for himself, and he is merely using Team Galactic to that end. 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. | ||
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.

====''[[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. | |||
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]] | [[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. | |||
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]]. | |||
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. | |||
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]]''==== | |||
[[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. | |||
====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!]]''. | |||
Cyrus's legacy endured long after his disappearance, as the remaining members of Team Galactic immediately reorganized themselves upon escaping from prison in order to bring him back. This legacy caused a dire threat to the Sinnoh region all by itself, even without Cyrus's direct involvement. | |||
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). | |||

Cyrus | ====History==== | ||
====={{MangaArc|Diamond & Pearl}}===== | |||
Cyrus debuts 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 [[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. | |||
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. | Cyrus later appears at the Celestic ruins where Diamond and Pearl finally meet him in person.

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]]. | After managing to make one Red Chain, Cyrus is attacked by the researcher of the Sinnoh myths and the Sinnoh region Champion, [[Cynthia]].

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. | ||
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. | 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}}.

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. | 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.

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 {{ | 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.

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. | Later, Cyrus appears in the Distortion World, still alive after the battle on Spear Pillar.

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. | After Charon is defeated, Cyrus and his Commanders emerge from the Distortion World unharmed.

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. | Cyrus speaks to his four Commanders once more and reveals that he is disbanding Team Galactic.

Later, at [[Celestic Town]], Cyrus | 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. | After catching up to him, Cyrus offers to let Hareta join him in his operation; Hareta refuses and they begin battling.

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. | Later, while Jupiter battles Mitsumi at Lake Acuity, Cyrus sends a phone call to Jupiter in which he requests that Mitsumi comes to him.

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 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. | 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 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. | With Dialga freed, Cyrus has been defeated, but suddenly, the other god Pokémon, {{p|Palkia}}, arrives.

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. | Hareta uses Cyrus's plan and manages to get Dialga to use {{m|Roar of Time}}, stopping it momentarily.

==Names== | ==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 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 alongside Mars at the Battle Tower during the post-game.
In Pokémon 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. There, he divulges that his true intention is to create a new world solely for himself, and he is merely using Team Galactic to that end. 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.

In the anime
Main series
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.
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
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's legacy endured long after his disappearance, as the remaining members of Team Galactic immediately reorganized themselves upon escaping from prison in order to bring him back. This legacy caused a dire threat to the Sinnoh region all by itself, even without Cyrus's direct involvement.
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.
Dialga, along with Palkia, was summoned by Cyrus on the Spear Pillar. They were under his control through the use of the Red Chain and were tasked by him to open a portal to another dimension, wanting a world of his own. After the Red Chain's destruction and Cyrus's exit, Dialga, as well as Palkia, begins to rampage, creating a danger for the entire region of Sinnoh. However, the two were calmed down and sent away with the help of Azelf, Mesprit, and Uxie.
Dialga's only known move is Roar of Time.

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 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's 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.

Cyrus successfully controlled Dialga after he gained control of the Red Chain. Dialga was a very powerful Pokémon that was able to use time as an advantage in its battle. However, when Hareta tried to snap Dialga out of Cyrus's control, it was able to flee from Cyrus.
Dialga's known moves are Roar of Time, Ancient Power, and Dragon Claw.
Stolen
In order to force Mitsumi into rejoining Team Galactic, Cyrus kidnaps her favorite Eevee, locks him in a cage and holds him hostage, threatening to kill Eevee if she refuses. To save Eevee's life, Mitsumi caves in to the blackmail and rejoins Team Galactic. Later on, Cyrus forces Mitsumi to battle Hareta with the mission to defeat him. To make sure Mitsumi cooperates, he would torture Eevee every time she disobeyed him. After Hareta defeats Mitsumi, Jun and his Dragonite take Eevee away from Cyrus and return him to his trainer.
None of Eevee's moves are known.

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:
- all of Cyrus's Pokémon are dual-types, excluding his Entei from Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl's Battle Tower.
- all of Cyrus's Pokémon have a weakness to Rock, excluding Dialga and Palkia from Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.
- all of Cyrus's non-Legendary Pokémon outside of the Battle Tower are of Dark- and/or Flying-type (his Honchkrow is both).
- 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 stated in-game, as 27 by Looker 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.
