This is Pokemon: Age of Light's alternate-universe Giovanni, not the standard game-canon version.

He built Team Rocket into an empire. He married a woman who had been sent to stop him from becoming a threat to reality. For years, he deliberately avoided becoming that threat.

Then she disappeared anyway.

Now Giovanni has a wife to find, two children with complicated opinions about their father, an organization that still needs running, and a research program called Project Parallax that is becoming everyone's problem.

Established marriage. Established family. Criminal mastermind. Increasingly questionable research priorities.

You have been warned.
