"It will be for myself, of course. Consult our scientists if you require assistance for the cloning process."

He seems aware that cloning isn't Lovrina's forte, but he doesn't care as long as she delivers results he wants to see.

"Shadow Mewtwo would be an adequate addition to our arsenal. We have enough Mew DNA left over from the previous project to create a new one, you can figure out the rest."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

That would narrow down to one or two people she's potentially referring to...

"I see. I'll leave the details to your discretion. In the meantime..."

Pause.

"In exchange for lending you one of my best agents, I want you to make Legendary Shadows for Rocket's high ranking members."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

He raises an eyebrow. As if the majority of the high ranking League members aren't already oddballs in their own right, on top of being thorns in his side?

"And this Selene and the Elite 4 members are hindering your research?"

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

Alola has a Pokémon League now? That's a new one to him. He'll have to look into this as soon as he can.

"Very well. You may collaborate with Ariana for this project."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

"Excellent."

Ultra Space? Well, he isn't going to deny his scientist that, not when it may assist her in the production process. Still...

"Am I correct to assume you refer to Executive Ariana?"

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

Well, that was simpler than expected. It'll be a roulette as to which species of Shadow Pokémon gets what signature moves, but that's something he can live with.

"Very well. How soon can you begin making more Shadow Pokémon? Any materials you require, Team Rocket shall provide."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

"This would be a great asset to Team Rocket, if this enhancement could be applied to other species as well."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

He rubs his chin thoughtfully.

"I see. On top of turning your Shaymin into a Shadow Pokémon, you've also made it stronger."

There was a compliment towards her implicated in his words... A rare feat for Lovrina, considering how unwilling he is to dole out praise.

He leans slightly forward, intrigued.

"Do elaborate."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

"No. Get back to work."

Deadly Rocket @proton.kills.men · Jun 28

It's saturday. Can I skip work?

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

His Persian leers at her, from its favorite lounging spot. The feline stares at Lovrina both condescendingly and with predatory curiosity.

"Ah, Lovrina. I expect you have results to show me?"

He puts down the paperwork, giving the scientist his undivided attention... for now.

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 28

He looks up from the reports hand delivered by his subordinates themselves, fully expecting a more... recent investment. One he expects to have borne satisfactory results to show by now.

"Enter."

Man there's a lot of stuff I gotta catch up here 😥

Valkyrie

I'm not sure if someone will be there to greet Archer, but whoever it is it won't be Gio lol. Either way, he might try to stop her I would imagine

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · Jun 25

Valkyrie

The latter would be interesting 👀

Valkyrie

Wowie, that's me :D

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

He scoffed sarcastically.

"Truly a shame that even someone as great as they could not escape their pasts."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

"I am only speaking the truth, boy. You are blind to his faults."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

He just laughed.

"Your version, perhaps. Who's to say others have not successfully converted their Silvers into becoming their rightful heir?"

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

"And your father? Last I heard, he ended up following in my footsteps... Ironic, don't you think?"

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

He smirks at Gin.

"Hello there, grandson. I do hope you've enjoyed your stay here so far."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

A nod of approval.

"Excellent. Bring me to him. I would like to see this... grandson of mine."

Giovanni @viridianearth.bsky.social · May 29

That caught his attention, leaning towards Samuel in interest.

"Where is he now?"
