I really wish there was a mod that made the ai of the trainer teams smarter. Or even better, i know in gen 1 u cant usually do much when it comes to specific builds other than typing. Things like allow the gym leaders to have basic type teams, but the harder teams like giovanni and red and stuff, use competitive pokemon movesets or even teams.

I have an idea thats probably wrong. So the gym is ground type so the trainer would probably have water types so he sends out a grass type to have somewhat of an advantage

I have mixed feelings actually. He's "cool" in some weird way but I also find him scary as hell. Just look at his evil grin he has on his face all the time, saying "You will not get out here alive, kid."
I honestly love Giovanni. No other antagonist, maybe except ghetsis, is as passionate and hardcore about their work. I mean he’s a mafia boss pretty much. 10/10 villain.
in the pokemon adventures manga giovanni had a powerful cloyster and he was 1 of the viridian forest childs able to speak to pokemon and even heal them like yellow, he also fights arceus in the heart gold soul silver and he fought really well i do feel like you missed his team's strength by a bit and in the manga he shows as 1 of the biggest and most fearsome trainer
surprised you didn't speak of beedrill his actual ace in the hole. also he doesn't fight arceus if i recall he fought giratina but with his sons own ursarang which warrants mention.
Lets not forget that giovanni is also one of the few fathers in the pokemon series and is absolutely horrible to his son silver, abandoning him as a child and causing silver to also follow a similar path of thinking pokemon are only good as tools. Without gold/krystal/lyra's influence, silver could have very well become evil himself
This was a very nice video. I certainly wouldn't mind you doing videos on the Pokemon Adventures manga. They are bound to be interesting and entertaining. Keep up the good work, man! :)
TBH, I was kinda expecting this to be based around monotype competitive battling (considering IK that's a solid amount of your content). Also I'd like to see you do this series with all evil team bosses (Considering bosses can and possibly do have "under-level evolutions" in the main series games.
Team rocket has the only one who had a risk management plan of capturing a powerful legendary. Most villains in pokemon universe didn't have(except for the team plasma leader). Team magma leader got blasted by Groudon, Team aqua leader got eaten by Kyogre, and team Galactic leader got killed by Giratina. Giovanni deserves more recognition.
That sounds cool. Maybe they could discuss how Ghetsis formed Team Plasma, hat happened to his eye and arm, if he made some deals with Team Rocket, etc.
I'm sorry, but I prefer Ghetsis over this guy. Why? Let's compare those two. - We know Team Rocket Grunts are loyal to him, but so are Plasma's. Believe me, those guys are still with him for a reason. Besides, let's not forget he managed to manipulate ordinary people to think he was right. - Giovanni kills Pokémon, Ghetsis kills children. No, really, he almost killed Nate/Rosa and Lillie. And he was the one "pulling the trigger", not one of his henchmen. - The father-son relationship is much more clear on him. Though Giovanni's has potential, we know little to nothing about his relationship with Silver. But N? He was his primary tool to fulfill his dreams, not some powerful mon. And, let's not forget we're talking about how he's using HIS SON. - In terms of raw power, Ghetsis is a little bit stronger. He managed to control Kyurem Black/White and has a pretty powerful team. A pseudo-legendary with Life Orb, a wall with Leftovers, Pokémon with no weaknesses, good dual-types ... Oh, and its max level is 52, while Giovanni's strongest is a Rhyhorn (Rhydon on the originals) and it's not even that strong (although BW2 fixes this the best way possible). So, yeah, Giovanni is way more iconic and realistic but he's not as strong or ruthless as Ghetsis.
How about Cyrus next? I know that in the manga, he found and trained a young girl to be his best agent. And in the end, that girl is actually the manga's female protaganist. I believe she's called Mitzuki.
@@fatuusdottore i think pokespe Cryus may just be my favorite when it comes to his character. he is not one dimensionally evil but just a man who admires machines and history and due to these two passions found mankind to be flawed. he wished to change the world when he thought mankind lacked all three qualities that made people whole emotion willpower and wisdom but in reality he was the one who lacked qualities. also he personally survived a draco metoer that is a level of badass no villain in pokemon can top in games anime or manga. jb2448.info/picture.php?/5261/category/996
Well I just love we share the same name, and even spelled the same, I've been playing since Gen 1 and till this very day it's still my favorite evil team, because they define what evil is known to be, even killing without remorse
I read a fanfic where Ash and Jessie were his kids. They don't know, and he has purposely put them on ash, so he and Jessie can look out for each other.
So manga Giovanni next, nice! I still love his battles with Red, the Mewtwo vs Deoxys fight would be amazing in anime adaptation + his scene with Silver in the flames was great.
We really need to see a deeper plot line with giovanni, since journeys is so unpredictable ig they could do something there and maybe ash battle and beat giovanni bcuz we all know how weak ash was in unova
How strong is Giovanni well he is definitely weaker Than Ghetsis, N, and Colress but after those evil team members of Plasma Giovanni is 2nd Team Plasma and its leaders and admins are just stronger than Rocket overall but if you don't count Team Plasma and Neo Plasma than you can make the claim that Giovanni is the strongest

Giovanni as an individual Pokemon trainer is okay , but team rocket makes him terrifying. I bet they must have captured at least a few of every Pokemon species till today.
Dude is essentially the Frieza of Pokémon. Though correct me if im wrong, didn't in the original Red and Blue, Giovanni claimed to dedicate himself to Pokemon studies after his final loss? Or was that just something shoehorned in for the English release? Additionally, I'd love to see you cover Ghetsis!
Giovanni should come back in Pokemon Journeys so we can see Ash and Goh take them down. Or course Team Rocket will continue but Giovanni will step down. Big Arc could happen.
Pokémon does have a police force but seeing all the crime related stuff that Team Rocket pulls off doesn't seem like the police doing anything about it.
I really want Giovanni to make an appearance in the new anime maybe compete in the WC or try and take it over have ash and master 8 tae down team rocket have them disband and Jessie James and meowth to escape and become normal trainers, take back all their old Pokémon too would be cool if they were actually planning on wrapping up ash's story in the anime
@@redandbluesteelstudiosoffi5797 that would be dumb. Why do you think so many of his grunts use Drozee? Or pokémon with access to Thief?

Giovanni as an individual Pokemon trainer is okay , but team rocket makes him terrifying. I bet they must have captured at least a few of every Pokemon species till today.
*n o i c e*
hes so strong
Geovani has been destroying the tournament of power with his strongest possible team and might actualy prove strongest in Kanto and jhoto.
Dude is essentially the Frieza of Pokémon. Though correct me if im wrong, didn't in the original Red and Blue, Giovanni claimed to dedicate himself to Pokemon studies after his final loss? Or was that just something shoehorned in for the English release?
Additionally, I'd love to see you cover Ghetsis!
Left out Manga Giovanni threatening people with his Beedrill
Giovanni should come back in Pokemon Journeys so we can see Ash and Goh take them down. Or course Team Rocket will continue but Giovanni will step down. Big Arc could happen.
Pokémon does have a police force but seeing all the crime related stuff that Team Rocket pulls off doesn't seem like the police doing anything about it.
I actually watched the entire video
Wheres how Good was Electrode Ingame
I really want Giovanni to make an appearance in the new anime maybe compete in the WC or try and take it over have ash and master 8 tae down team rocket have them disband and Jessie James and meowth to escape and become normal trainers, take back all their old Pokémon too would be cool if they were actually planning on wrapping up ash's story in the anime
He is pretty strong. I did have a tough time trying to beat him in the game red and blue.
He wouldn't be much of a match if the player just had a gun 😂😂😂😂. But yea, he was tough as shit
Did you not have surf?
@@redandbluesteelstudiosoffi5797 that would be dumb. Why do you think so many of his grunts use Drozee? Or pokémon with access to Thief?
You walk into a Team Rocket base with a gun, all you are doing is giving them a gun.
And why would you go through the trouble of buying and learning to use a gun if you have a flamethrower for a pet?
Seriously, using guns in Pokémon is just the dumbest thing ever.
@@tyrant-den884 It was a literal joke. 😂
If you use a water type or a psychic Pokémon you can beat him easily.
Sir please make alternative starter best'teams for hgss
