Cyrus

i hope hes all emotionally unstable like gaara. i have a feeling that after all is said and done cyrus will be killed somehow, he just doesnt seem like the type that would give up his plans because he sees how badly it effects the world like maxxie and archie did(considering his goal is to destroy the world.) i think its also safe to assume that cynthia, gary and paul might be in the cyrus arc if they have one

Gaara-like pokemon characters? I dunno, sounds weird.

I'm pretty sure they aren't going to kill off any characters in a show that's mainly viewed by 11-year-olds.
 
No, that would only been in the ***** if so.
I think the writers of course will give Curus an apperance, but not before the end of Team Galaxy I'm afraid.
 
Will the writers handle him properly? Or is it Team Magma and Aqua all over again?

Well Diamond/pearl is longer so it most likely will be dealt with properly. I think the problem last time was that there were two teams to deal with, since there's only one this time, it should be easier.

And given their Cameo appearances, so far, and not running into Ash, Dawn, or Brock, it looks like they are setting something up for them.
 
well i think itsw obvious cyrus will have a story arc being how he is head of team galactic. i hope he doesnt reform and try to atone for his sins cos well he wants to rule the world so he isnt the cute cuddlely type lol.

I have to disagree. Maxie and Archie were just brought in at the last minute in a horrible two-part episode. (I think it should've at least been one episode longer with Rayquaza butting in, like in Emerald.) It wasn't because two teams were hard to handle; the writers just failed at properly introducing Maxie and Archie.

As for Cyrus, I sense he'll just come in last minute. If we're lucky, he'll make some cameos walking around or something. We haven't even had cameos of Mars or Jupiter yet! What does that tell you?

I hope Cyrus in introduced as a coldhearted, noncaring villain who turns out to be the father of Paul and Reiji.

Here's an anime bio I made up:

Having grabbed the Pokemon Mesprit in an act of arrogance, the curse of having no emotions has passed down to his son Paul. Cyrus believes emotions make a person weak and pathetic, and resolves to destroy all those with kind hearts in order to build a dark empire.

Reiji is determined to save Paul from his father's mistake, and help him gain emotions so he doesn't internally crumble from heartlessness. To do this, Reiji wants to meet Mesprit and ask it to remove the curse from his brother. However, Cyrus views Reiji as a mistake, and Paul as Team Galactic's next heir.

Cyrus meets Ash near Celestic Town, and teaches him some dark competitive secrets, such as not letting your opponent have a movie by striking repetedly and changing a Pokemon's nature to improve its stats, which he does to a Gyarados he captures. He also temporarily controls Ash into using his methods to defeat Dawn's entire team with just Pikachu's harsh Thunderbolts and Iron Tails. This however crushes Dawn's spirit, and she tearfully says Pokemon aren't meant to be worked so hard. Cyrus laughs and views her as weak and incompetent. However, he takes a liking to Ash and his battle team, but suggests that Ash not use Gligar on his team. Ash considers this, and sadly does so by giving Gligar to Brock. To recouperate, Cyrus assists Ash in catching a Stunky, which is a battle ace with Toxic and Night Slash.

Cyrus carefully eyes Ash's journey, and awaits the day he can challenge him and see if Ash is strong by following Cyrus's way...or his own way.
 
I wonder if they will even give him any airtime.
 
A major downfall of Hoenn was Emerald being released. If it never got released, we may have had seen a better Team Magma/Aqua arc, seeing as how Wallace was orginally planned for the show, and Steven made an early appearence. But when the whole Groudon vs. Kyogre episodes came out in Japan, I was shocked to see no Steven, no Wallace, and I was also frustrated to see that Mt. Pyre didn't get any screentime, that would've beaten the crap episodes we got before Groudon vs. Kyogre, hell, we got Lance, something the writers handled mostly poorly. Though, I do believe the Sinnoh saga will be handled properly as for as the criminal organization goes, because there is one team, trying to obtain 2 Pokemon (anime, not games), as opposed to 2 teams obtaining one Pokemon each, writers were actually doing pretty well in the first 60 or so episodes of Hoenn with that idea, but then they slacked off somewhere, probably the Brody episode... Unlike in D/P, where they probably have most non-filler episode plots written and stored away somewhere in OLM Studios. =/

Cyrus probably has a big debut coming up, or before he makes his full appearence to Ash and co., he'll get cameos and small screentime foreshadowing coming events... oh the possibilities.
 
I love Cyrus!
They better handle him correctly and make him super cool or I'll give their ass a woopin o_o
i have a feeling that after all is said and done cyrus will be killed somehow
:o I'll give you a woopin too! :p
No, no one will die in the Pokemon Anime (no matter how much we want Brock to) ^^
 
Yeah Team Magma/ Aqua could have been great, they could have Wallace be one of the Pokemon G-men, and Steven and Ash head to the Sky Pilar to awaken Rayquaza, I mean at least they could have done is given us 4 episodes
 
I don't know if the writers will handle Cyrus properly. In all truth, I'm more concerned with Team Galactic as a whole, if they're going to be given the justice they deserve in terms of how they're treated in the anime, but the writers have shown us that they can create competent antagonists (Paul, Hunter J), so I don't see why it would be any different for Team Galactic, or Cyrus. I'm certain Cyrus is going to be as he was in the games, but I'm kind of hoping that not everyone in anime-Team Galactic is serious, otherwise it'll get boring (for me) fast.
 
I have to disagree. Maxie and Archie were just brought in at the last minute in a horrible two-part episode.

Well I really meant team galactic as whole, they seem to have a better, more mysterious introduction than magma or aqua. I guess we'll have to see the episode after Ash's gym battle.

As for Mars or Jupiter, well it's only the 3rd gym, we have a lot more episodes till the sinnoh league is over, so I say have a little patience (or at least wait until the upcoming team galactic episode and by the title it seems that Mars or Jupiter might appear)
 
I'm pretty sure they aren't going to kill off any characters in a show that's mainly viewed by 11-year-olds.

The scientists in the first movie beg to differ. And pretty much everyone in the Rocket base besides Giovanni, or so we can assume.

Is it ever said anywhere that Cyrus is emotionless because of him encountering Mesprit? Because I don't remember that in the games, especially not when the Galactics *have* Mesprit. Heck, I don't even remember him being emotionless, just that he considers emotions to be weakness. That doesn't mean he doesn't have them, just that he supresses them. He certainly seemed to have the emotion of excitement at the Spear Pillar...
