Professor Cozmo appears in the episode "The Scoop" within the animated miniseries. He works at the Mossdeep Space Center, monitoring celestial threats and responding to them. During the episode, he detects a meteoroid headed for the planet. After its destruction, he observes a Deoxys emerge from the remains. Fearing public panic, he intervenes when reporters Gabby and Ty acquire footage of the event. His key action involves confronting the reporters inside the Space Center, demanding they surrender their recording on the grounds that the public is unprepared for such news. When they refuse and attempt to leave with the footage, he orders security personnel to pursue them to retrieve the sensitive material.
