 ====2003 series====
-Bruton, renamed as Pluto, appears in the 2003 series. There, he serves as the primary antagonist of episodes 13 and 14, [[episodes:2003:the rise of pluto|The Rise of Pluto]] and [[episodes:2003:the fall of acheron|The Fall of Acheron]]. In these episodes, many of the robots that had appeared earlier re-appear, although many have been completely redesigned or replaced. Pluto, at first, faces Harley, a rocket ball player robot. Also defeated are [[characters:Delta]], a police robot, [[characters:Epsilon]], a female pacifist and sister of Delta, and also Hercules, a Greek gladiator robot that can defeat most single-handed. However, he was eventually defeated by [[characters:Acheron]], an exact duplicate of him without Kokoro. He then had another appearance in the Robotonia episodes, where he was fighting alongside the [[characters:Blue Knight]] and [[characters:Astro]], however when the Blue Knight wanted to destroy the humans and Astro didn't, Pluto eventually went with Astro. This appearance implied he was rebuilt. Just like the previous series, he has a relationship with [[characters:Uran]], only this time it is stronger to the point where he is almost in love.

 =====Confrontations=====
-As all of Bruton's appearances are part of 'The Greatest Robot in the World' story arc (with the 1980s series and 2003 series' episodes being simply remakes) most of the robots he faces are more or less the same throughout the series. Here is a table to show them:
