Line 42: Line 42:
Attila is much less formal than his partner, almost always speaking informally to him and everyone else, in the original Japanese. Although not exceedingly arrogant, he does taunt {{jo|Jimmy}} and the others when they arrive, and refers to him as "Hero Boy" in all of their interactions. Although he appears to be serious when meeting Professor Sebastian, Attila's general mood seems to be rather lighthearted. When they first test the Crystal System on wild Electric Pokemon, he laughs and gleefully begins to collect them all. Yet, as soon as Hun tells him to focus, he does so immediately.

Although clearly not unintelligent, Attila does not seem to have the same intellectual abilities that his partner does, and often is surprised or impressed by things that Hun does or knows. Attila also seems to be more emotional than his partner, as his aggravation toward Jimmy and the others becomes obvious almost immediately. In these situations, Hun usually manages to distract him or calm him down. One particular event where Attila does completely lose his temper is upon finding out that {{jo|Marina}} has used her [[Pokégear]] to call for help, and has helped Raikou to escape. He yells through the Pokegear, causing [[Vincent]] and {{jo|Jimmy}} on the other end to nearly fall over, and then crushes it in his fist.

Hun and Attila can be seen briefly in [[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', during the narrator's introduction to the world of Pokémon.  They are in the holding area with a captured {{p|Rayquaza}} and in the scene before, the Rayquaza could be seen flying as it tried to avoid being shot down by small missiles. This makes Hun and Attila the only Team Rocket characters known to capture a legendary Pokemon long enough for it to be studied (with the exception of [[Giovanni]]'s ownership of {{p|Mewtwo}}, which is still different in that Mewtwo was created by Team Rocket, not captured. It is unknown how, when or if Rayquaza escaped. 


Attila never really states his personal opinion on Pokemon the way his partner does, yet, occasionally he makes statements that imply he agrees with everything Hun is saying about the fact that they exist to be servants of mankind. He also seems to think that Jimmy, Marina and the others are too young to be interfering with them, often making comments/insulting them based on their age.
