Colress: Difference between revisions

Colress appears as an antagonist working with Team Plasma to help them with their goal of convincing people to liberate their Pokémon. He first appears as a competitor of the Unova Pokémon League disguised as a cloaked man named '''Hood Man''' (Japanese: '''フードマン''' ''Hood Man''). He managed to sneak in without having earned any of the eight Unova Gym Badges. After battling his way through Victory Road, he eventually makes it to the top 8. In the quarterfinal match, he is paired up against [[Marlon]] as his opponent. Although Marlon manages to disable his {{p|Beheeyem}}'s moves, Colress manages to come out on top and advance to the next round. After leaving, he notes that participating in the League and observing powerful Trainers will help his research. In the semifinals, Colress faces his next opponent, {{adv|Cheren}}. Although Cheren initially struggles due to his disappointment in his {{TP|Cheren|Snivy}}'s strength, he switches it out for his {{p|Unfezant}} and quickly defeats Colress's Beheeyem with a {{m|U-turn}}.

When Cheren battles with {{adv|Black}}, Colress talks to [[Zinzolin]] about whether or not Zinzolin's theory that a cold heart is the best way to bring out the strength within a Pokémon. Although Zinzolin states that his theory is correct, Colress notes that in his battles, he was able to see many strong Trainers who use various styles to bring out the strength of their Pokémon. When {{adv|White}} figures out that the two are actually members of Team Plasma, she attempts to reveal this to everyone at the League. Although she manages to reveal this to everyone, Colress has his Beheeyem use {{m|Teleport}} to transport her to [[N]]'s room inside [[N's Castle]].

When Team Plasma makes their attack on the Pokémon League, and N's Castle rises from the ground, Colress returns to stop the Elite Four from helping in the battle. There, he reveals that he was given {{p|Tornadus}}, {{p|Thundurus}}, and {{p|Landorus}} and intends on having them battle the Elite Four so that he can figure out to transform the three into their Therian Formes. Using a mirror, he discovers that a special mirror is the key to transforming the three Pokémon. When Ghetsis is defeated by {{adv|Black}}, Colress rushes in to assist his ally. Using his {{p|Beheeyem}}, Colress frees Ghetsis from being trapped, causes Black to be sealed into the [[Dragon Stones|Light Stone]], and Teleports himself and Ghetsis away. Afterwards, he talks to Ghetsis, who thanks him for his assistance to Team Plasma's goal. Although Ghetsis expresses a desire to work with him again, Colress only agrees as long as it doesn't impede his research.

Two years later, he attacks [[Aspertia City]] for a test run of Genesect's abilities. There, he encounters [[Lack-Two]] and [[Looker]], who happened to be in the area. Lack-Two attempts to capture Genesect, as he noticed that Colress was controlling with a machine and it must still be a wild Pokémon. After a long battle, Lack-Two succeeds in capturing Genesect with the help of his {{p|Dewott}}. Defeated, Colress commends Lack-Two's strength and leaves, but not before revealing that he has become the new leader of Team Plasma. Before disappearing, he tells the two that Ghetsis is the one to ask if they wish to find out why. Later. he arrives at the [[Plasma Frigate]] to check up on the new Grunt uniforms he designed. He meets with Ghetsis and states that they should go to meet with Zinzolin.
