Pyron is a video game character from the Darkstalkers fighting game series. He is an alien from the planet of Hellstorm, who became a cosmic being after evolving over many years. He later landed deep within the Atlantic Ocean and waited for the right time to consume Earth. In the end however, he was defeated and then consumed by Demitri.

Other appearances

In the Night Warriors OVA, Pyron returns to Earth just as the battle between Demitri and Morrigan begins. The Huitzil robots, left behind during his previous reign on Earth, awaken to gather data on the Darkstalkers, Pyron's only real threat. Pyron is a powerful entity, capable of creating miniature suns (which also destroy large cities), which he uses especially to keep Demitri at bay. Pyron is voiced by David Kaye.

In the DiC Darkstalkers cartoon, Pyron has ambitions of taking over Earth, but is a mere shell of his other appearances. Depicted as an entity made of flame in most appearances, the cartoon turned him into a living being who roamed space in a gigantic spacecraft. And rather than do his own work himself, he would sit in the background and let his minions do his work for him.

Trivia

Pyron's height and weight remain unknown; he is the only character in the series to have this enigmatic nature to both his size measurements.
Pyron appears as a boss character that you can unlock in Capcom Fighting Evolution.
Pyron has been voiced by Nobuyuki Hiyama since his debut.
If Pyron is electrocuted by a character with that ability (such as Victor), his "skeleton" appears as a constellation, indicating his cosmic nature.
Pyron's appearance as the final boss in the Capcom Fighting Evolution is often considered a case of SNK Boss Syndrome. A few arguments in favor of this include his ability to attack players while they are prone (after being knocked down) similarly, Pyron can use an attack that will turn him into a lauging pillar of flame, damaging anything that comes into contact with him. He will commonly use this attack while standing over a prone opponet, who will then receive damage (and once again be knocked down) immidiatly upon regaining their footing. Many of Pyron's combos if not properly parryed can take away nearly 75% of a players health bar.
