Cyrus Miyake

Akagi Cyrus Miyake is from Sunyshore City in the Sinnoh region. He's the former leader of Team Galactic and is now a member of the Tekiyoku. He's an Ice Manipulator.

Present
He was first seen in the first episode, but that was just a briefing of the Tekiyoku's mission at the headquarters.

He later appeared with Lawrence III at the end of Episode 12, then was mainly seen in Episode 13. The two encountered Alain and the Mokusetsu in Snowbelle City in the Kalos region to fight over possession of the Ice Plate, Tsurara.

Cyrus fought Ash and Korrina, two non-Manipulators at the time. Eventually, he ran in front of Lawrence III to save him from being murdered by Alain's Evil Angel. Alain was still going to murder them, but thanks to an order not to from Ash, he didn't. Cyrus and Lawrence III retreated.

Personality
The main thing to note is that no other former leader of an evil group is an Ice Manipulator. That Manipulation is for people going through depressed things in life. This points to possible trauma Cyrus might've gone through during his reign as leader (or after it).

He doesn't show this at all during the encounter with the Mokusetsu over the Ice Plate, though. He does show care for his comrade, Lawrence III, to protect him from being killed.

Naming

 * His first name, Akagi, is his Japanese name in the Pokémon anime. However, this is actually a common surname in Japan, which suggests that this may just be his surname, leaving his first name unknown. The following, taken from his article, explains why he was given his name.
 * "'Akagi' means 'red castle', 'red tree', or 'red future', the last of which may reference the many deaths that would have taken place if his scheme had come to fruition [in the games/anime]. It may also refer to the Red Chain which Cyrus needs to summon the Legendary Pokémon, Dialga and/or Palkia, at the Spear Pillar. It could also be in reference to Planet X, also known as the Red Planet, Nibiru, Wormwood, Quetzalcoatl, and many more names. It is an apocalyptic conspiracy, but there are many different theories about what exactly it is. There is also a volcano called Akagi in the real-world Kanto region of Japan. The name may also reference the concept of a red sun, in particular, a red giant.""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. -- Bulbapedia"
 * His middle name, Cyrus, is his name in the English dub of the anime. It comes from "Kuros", which is Persian for "Sun".
 * His last name, Miyake, is the surname of his Japanese voice actor, Kenta Miyake. Miyake also took over as the second voice actor for Giovanni after the original voice actor, Hirotaka Suzuoki, died of lung cancer. Ironically, Giovanni might share something with Cyrus in that his Japanese name, Sakaki, may also just be a surname, leaving his first name unknown.

General

 * His birthday, October 2nd, is the original Japan air date of the episode of the Pokémon anime he first appeared in.
