Character from Pokémon Platinum by Game Freak / Nintendo
Team Galactic's scientist — an older man who joined for profit, not ideology, and whose scheme at Stark Mountain to exploit Heatran becomes the post-Spear Pillar threat that Looker ultimately arrests him for.
Charon is the Galactic outlier. Every other commander had ideological investment in Cyrus's vision. Charon joined because Team Galactic was a well-funded organization with access to advanced technology and legendary Pokémon, and he wanted to exploit that for his own gain. This makes him less frightening than Cyrus and more persistently annoying. After Cyrus vanishes, Charon doesn't feel loss — he sees an opportunity. He pursues a scheme to capture Heatran at Stark Mountain and use it for leverage, which is approximately the most Charon plan possible. Looker arrests him at Stark Mountain. For all his scheming, Charon is caught by a man with a Croagunk and an unfortunate way of phrasing things. Named after Charon, the moon of Pluto — the dwarf planet, the one that never quite made it.
An elderly man with grey hair, thick eyebrows, and a hunched posture that makes him look smaller than he is. Wears the Team Galactic scientist uniform. Has a calculating, unpleasant quality — not threatening in the way Cyrus is, but the kind of unpleasant that finds a way to make everything about personal advantage.
Also known as: Charon, Dr. Charon
