Mars (Japanese: マーズ Mars) is one of Team Galactic's four Commanders in Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum.
In the core series
In Pokémon Diamond and Pearl, she is first seen leading the efforts of Team Galactic to control the Valley Windworks near Route 205. Mars is then seen at Lake Verity. She makes her final appearance (along with Jupiter) atop the Spear Pillar, in an attempt to slow down the player so Cyrus can awaken the Legendary Pokémon, but the player and their rival overpower them.
In Pokémon Platinum, at the Valley Windworks, Mars argues with Charon, showing her distaste for his arrogant attitude. She also indicates a lower opinion of him for being a recent member. She and Jupiter, after the events at Stark Mountain, quit Team Galactic because Charon has different ideals from former boss Cyrus. It is also shown that Mars and Jupiter have a mutual dislike of each other. Mars mentions that she will try to enter the Distortion World to find Cyrus after quitting the team.

In the anime
Main series
Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl
Mars debuted in Losing Its Lustrous!. She, along with fellow Commander Saturn, attempted to steal the Lustrous Orb from the Celestic Town Historical Research Center. She also appeared in Double Team Turnover!, in which she informed Cyrus that the Red Chain project was nearing completion.
In Steeling Peace of Mind!, Mars and her Purugly brought the Spear Key to Iron Island, where she activated the Iron Ruins to find the exact location of the Spear Pillar on Mt. Coronet. After failing to complete the task in Saving the World From Ruins!, she attempted to blow up the island on Cyrus's orders, but she failed due to Riley and his Lucario using Aura to contain the explosion. As a result, she stood down from field duties while Saturn was tasked with locating Spear Pillar.
She later appeared in The Needs of the Three! and The Battle Finale of Legend!. After the disappearance of Cyrus in the latter episode, she became distraught and even tried following him, but was stopped by Saturn. The duo, along with Jupiter, were later arrested.
She appeared briefly in Memories are Made of Bliss! in Team Rocket's fantasy with all the other members of Team Galactic.
Pokémon Journeys: The Series
Mars reappeared in JNS01 through JNS04, taking part in Team Galactic's plan to bring back Cyrus. For this purpose, Team Galactic acquired Arceus's Flame Plate and a Heatran, which were meant to power a device that would open a gate to the world that Cyrus had disappeared to. The operation, however, experienced a setback when the energy cannon exploded and Heatran went on a rampage. Mars and the other Commanders later faced Ash and his friends in order to stop them from interfering with them, but they were ultimately defeated and captured by Cynthia and later arrested by Officer Jenny, ending their plan in a failure.
Character
Mars lacks the vindictive nature seen in her fellow Commanders. She was extremely loyal to Team Galactic's cause and only acted in accordance with Cyrus's direct orders.

History
Diamond & Pearl arc
Mars makes her first appearance (in silhouette) at the Valley Windworks, where she attempts to gather and steal energy from the power plant. She encounters Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum, who have come to find out what had happened to the Valley Windworks Manager. She battles them with her Pokémon, and once her Electivire had successfully gathered enough energy; she cut off one of the windmills and flew off with it.
She reappears at the Team Galactic HQ after Saturn suffers his defeat by the hands of Paka and Uji, where they get into an argument about how Saturn doesn't like people standing in his room. She presents the Electivire she had used to steal the Windworks energy previously and transfers it to the almost-complete Galactic Bomb.
The next time she is seen is when she travels to Lake Verity after Diamond manages to defeat her swarm of Yanmega that she had sent to Professor Rowan's lab to steal some of his research. She destroys the controller to the machine that was commanding the Yanmega and voices her annoyance at using machines to do her work for her and is told by the Team Galactic Grunts that they have arrived at their destination.
When Mars arrives at the Lake, she encounters Diamond's mother picking Berries and takes her hostage. When Diamond arrives at the Lake to rescue his mother, he finds out that he's too late; Mars has already found her. Mars introduces herself as one of the three Team Galactic Commanders chosen by Cyrus, and offers Diamond a chance to watch the Lake's upcoming explosion; an offer he refuses.
During the ensuing battle, Johanna manages to escape to safety while Diamond takes to the skies with Mars following him. Mars easily overpowers him in the air long enough for the countdown to reach “0” and waits for the Lake's imminent explosion. Despite being disappointed that her Lake wasn't the one blown up, she continues her plans and successfully captures Mesprit and takes her leave. However, unbeknownst to her, Dia had snuck on the Airship and is on his way to the Team Galactic HQ.
She later appears at the Team Galactic HQ along with her fellow Commanders Saturn and Jupiter, who were also successful in their attempts in capturing Azelf and Uxie, respectively. Later, Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, and all of the Galactic Grunts bear witness to Cyrus giving a speech about how they will create a new world with no spirit and set off to finish their plans.
She later appears along with Saturn and Jupiter to deliver a message to Cyrus about how an intruder has infiltrated their defenses; Cyrus tells them to ignore it and go to the Spear Pillar. Later, at the Spear Pillar, she greets Cyrus when he arrives, but is surprised to seem him wounded; Cyrus tells them to not let anyone stop his ritual, which they all promise to do.
Immediately after, they are attacked by the Sinnoh Gym Leaders Fantina, Roark, and Gardenia, and they battle them to prevent them from reaching Cyrus. Mars and the other Commanders are evenly matched with the Sinnoh Gym Leaders until reinforcements arrive to help them; Mars battles Crasher Wake and Gardenia, but despite her power, she is eventually defeated.
Platinum arc
Later, Mars and her teammates are joined by another member of Team Galactic, Sird. Sird explains to them that she had infiltrated Team Rocket on a mission, but failed. Soon after, they are attacked by Riley of Iron Island, who had tracked Sird by her Aura. Sird battles Riley, allowing Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn to escape unharmed.
Later, Mars and her teammates witness Charon battling Diamond and Pearl in Eterna City with Heatran and Giratina. Despite their irritation that Charon has revealed his true loyalties, they decide to ignore it so that they can enter the Distortion World and rescue Cyrus. After arriving, they find Charon there as well. He lies and tells them that he is searching for Cyrus too, but is being attacked by a group of people and asks for their help.
Mars and the others comply, and they each face a different opponent in a one-on-one battle. Mars faces Cheryl in battle, while Jupiter faces Marley, and Saturn faces Mira. During the battle, the two seem evenly matched, and they constantly stop each other's strategies.
The battle is interrupted by Giratina, who flies past them so that it can fight the other Legendary Pokémon in the area. After Charon is defeated, Mars, her fellow Commanders, and Cyrus emerge from the Distortion World and into the real world. 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 Mars and Saturn think 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, which angers Jupiter because she, Mars, and Saturn will have nowhere else to go without him. Hearing her wishes, Cyrus takes Mars, Saturn, and Jupiter away with him and thanks Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum for their help.

Trivia
- Mars's name was changed to Venus in Spanish versions of the game, likely due to the fact that Mars is the name of a male Roman god. This also happened to Jupiter.
- Mars is the Commander the player will battle the most times in Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum. The player will battle Saturn twice in each game, Jupiter twice in Diamond and Pearl but three times in Platinum, while Mars is battled three times in Diamond and Pearl and four times in Platinum, although it should be noted one of Jupiter and Mars's battles are together in a Double Battle.
