Giovanni

Role

The primary antagonist, revealed after the Blackout. The true face behind Helix Corp.

Character

Embodies control. The island’s secrets are valuable because they can be mastered and used. He is not repeating old schemes — he is adapting, using corporate structure in a way the old Team Rocket never did.

The Reveal

His unmasking after the Blackout should feel like the island’s true political threat becoming visible — not a surprise arrival, but the stripping away of something that was always there.

His Claim

Rocket was here first. Giovanni is returning to claim what Rocket originally built. That history gives him a claim — warped and self-serving, but real — that makes the conflict more than just a villain showing up.
