This update is strictly classified. If you are watching this, you're fired. This page needs to be updated for the release of Ratchet & Clank comic series, All 4 One.

I don't believe this! Now what? It is requested that this article be expanded. You can help the Ratchet & Clank wiki by expanding it. See the request on the article's talk page for further details. Once the improvements have been completed you may remove this notice.

Lieutenant Commander Zephyr, or just Zephyr was one of the two caretakers assisting Talwyn as she searched for her father, and often helped her, Cronk, and Ratchet in various battles throughout the game. He was voiced by Paul Eiding. He and Cronk were constantly battling over who was superior, as they had both been Warbots years before the present Ratchet & Clank universe. He wielded a gun that fired three shots at a time, while his shots were faster and weaker, Cronk had a weapon to the opposite effect. Zephyr was often portrayed as being smarter than Cronk, often saying "Cronk, ya darn fool!"

Given that he was an elderly robot, Zephyr often recited memories of past battles he and Cronk fought together in, however their credibility could easily be disputed. One such story was be heard after the battle on Reepor, where Zephyr told Ratchet about the time he fought Undead Zombie Dung Dragons on the Folsteroid Plateau, which were, according to Zephyr, formed by the planet's radioactive sun. The pair had to fight their way out using a rusty spork and a roll of toilet paper they stole on Igliak prior to the battle.

Cronk and Zephyr fought in nineteen galactic wars, three interstellar battles, one planetary misunderstanding, and a lunar argument together.

In All 4 One, he and Cronk are giving mission support to Ratchet, Clank, Qwark, and Nefarious.

Once the trivia has been removed or appropriate improvements have been made in accordance with discussion please remove this template.
