Thinking on a grander scale than preceding ''Pokémon'' villains, Cyrus plans to use the power of [[Sinnoh]]'s legendary Pokémon to destroy the entire universe and make a new one in his own image. |

Lucas/Dawn confronted Cyrus again at Team Galactic's Veilstone headquarters. He saw they had come to rescue the three lake Pokémon, which Cyrus was indifferent to, because he no longer had any use for them. However, he was disappointed to see that the trainer was doing this deed out of simple compassion and pity, so he then battled Lucas/Dawn to teach them the weakness of the human heart. Cyrus was still defeated, at which point he acknowledged the trainer's strength by giving them a Master Ball, which he did not think he needed. After pointing the trainer towards the Pokémon's holding place, he left for the Spear Pillar atop Mt. Coronet to set the final stages of his plan into motion. | Lucas/Dawn confronted Cyrus again at Team Galactic's Veilstone headquarters.

− | In the post-game Episode RR scenario of ''[[Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]'', another version of Cyrus appeared. This Cyrus hailed from a world in which he was successful in using one of the legendary Pokémon from Sinnoh to create his perfect world. However, at the moment of his plan's completion, he was pulled away from that world and into another one, where [[Giovanni]] had him fight for [[Team Rainbow Rocket]]. He and [[Lysandre]] made up the second pair of bosses that [[Elio/Selene]] had to fight. | + | In the post-game Episode RR scenario of ''[[Pokémon: Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon]]'', another version of Cyrus appeared.

He and [[Lysandre]] made up the second pair of bosses that [[Elio/Selene]] had to fight. |
Cyrus was confused about whether or not this was the perfect world that he created. He soon realized the truth when he met Elio/Selene and looked at their [[Rotom]] [[Pokédex]]. Seeing that even the Pokédex had a spirit, he realized that he had work to do in extinguishing the human spirit from this world and proceeded to battle Elio/Selene. After being defeated, Cyrus expressed his confusion at the trainer building such strong bonds with their Pokémon and turning those bonds into strength. He decided not to do anything to this world and to return to his own perfect world instead. Cyrus gave the trainer a Galactic Key that allowed the trainer to progress further into the castle. He was left wondering if things would have been different for him if he had met Elio/Selene earlier. Ultimately, he was returned to his original world by [[Colress]]. | Cyrus was confused about whether or not this was the perfect world that he created.

They could be unlocked by completing a limited Legendary Event that featured them, known as "New World Dilemma". Due to references to the Distortion World and Cyrus having summoned both Legendary Pokémon, this followed the ''Platinum'' version of events. |

− | + | In that event, it was shown that Cyrus had been pulled to [[Pasio]] from the moment after he had summoned Dialga and Palkia, although Cynthia still remembered confronting him afterwards in the Distortion World. Cyrus and Palkia were able to easily defeat [[Scottie/Bettie]] and [[Cheryl]], and he retreated to gain more information. Cyrus then met [[Sophocles]] and talked with him to learn more about [[Pasio]]. It was implied that Sophocles reminded Cyrus of himself as a child, so he formed a bond of sorts with him. Ultimately, Cyrus went in search of [[Lear]] so that he could find a way to bring Dialga to the island as well and continue his plan. Scottie/Bettie, Cheryl and Sophocles made an attempt to stop him which failed and resulted in Cyrus denying his bond with Sophocles. Ultimately, Cynthia arrived wearing a sygna suit and used [[Kommo-o]] to defeat Cyrus, at which point he retreated. The other characters were left hopeful that Cyrus could see the error of his ways, but Cyrus remained determined to find a way to remake the world. | |

He was then trapped in the Distortion World, where he teamed up with the heroes in the ''Platinum'' arc, and his repentant nature was able to appeal to [[Shaymin]].
