In the [[Generation I|first games]] Giovanni appeared in, he served a dual role: one that was well-known to the residents of Kanto, and one that was more secret. He was first shown as the leader of the villainous [[Team Rocket]], the first of many [[villainous teams|criminal organizations]] to grace the Pokémon games. After he and his team of Grunts were defeated at [[Silph Co.]] by an {{ga|Red|eleven-year-old boy}}, Giovanni fled to a hideout that his antagonist was unaware of. Once the player returned to Viridian City, one of the major plot twists of these games revealed that Giovanni, in addition to his role as a criminal, was the final Gym Leader to be fought before the [[Elite Four]]—albeit one without a formal title. Here, he specializes in the {{t|Ground}} type. Once defeated, he disbanded Team Rocket and left the player with the {{Badge|Earth}} and {{TM|27|Fissure}}. | In the [[Generation I|first games]] Giovanni appeared in, he served a dual role: one that was well-known to the residents of Kanto, and one that was more secret.

If talked to again, he then vanishes and is not seen again for the rest of the game. | ||
Giovanni's role in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is much the same; the one difference is that defeating him in the Gym battle will earn the player {{TM|26|Earthquake}}, instead of TM27 (Fissure). He also implies that he intends to return to power one day rather than being moved to dedicate his life to the study of Pokémon. There is a side-plot in the [[Sevii Islands]] that revolves around Giovanni; a group of Team Rocket members are trying to continue the aims of Team Rocket, but they abandon this when they realize that their leader has been defeated once and for all. | Giovanni's role in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} is much the same; the one difference is that defeating him in the Gym battle will earn the player {{TM|26|Earthquake}}, instead of TM27 (Fissure).

Giovanni appeared in the [[Pokémon Origins]] episode ''[[PO03|File 3 | Giovanni appeared in the [[Pokémon Origins]] episode ''[[PO03|File 3: Giovanni]]''. {{OBP|Red|Origins}} first recalled meeting him at the [[Rocket Hideout]]. They later encountered again at [[Silph Co.]] after Team Rocket had taken over the building. Seeing Red's arrogant and determined attitude to stop Team Rocket every time, Giovanni decided to put him in his place, and battled [[Red's Charizard]] with his {{p|Nidoqueen}}, winning easily before escaping with a helicopter, declaring that Red could never understand what he was hoping to achieve. | ||

Giovanni appeared once more as the Viridian Gym Leader. Giovanni accepted his Gym challenge, but Red claimed that he would battle him as the enemy of all Pokémon, instead of a Gym Leader. Hearing this, Giovanni put aside his usual Gym Leader battling [[party|team]] and took out his strongest pair of Pokémon, contained within {{ball|Ultra}}s. The first one was {{p|Rhyhorn}}, which single-handedly was able to defeat four of Red's Pokémon before drawing with his {{p|Hitmonlee}}. During the battle, Giovanni started actually feeling excited, and wondered why he was feeling that way. When he saw the pose Red took while sending out his Charizard, he finally remembered his childhood passion for Pokémon and battling, and wondered how he could have ever turned into a person who only treated Pokémon as tools for business. After Red's Charizard had defeated Giovanni's last Pokémon, {{p|Rhydon}}, Giovanni offered him the Earth Badge as a proof of his victory. Red, however, refused to take a Badge from the Boss of Team Rocket. Seeing this, Giovanni turned to his minions, informing them that from that moment onwards, Team Rocket would be offically disbanded. He then turned back to Red, now offering the Badge to him not as the Boss of Team Rocket but as the Viridian City Gym Leader. Red accepted the Earth Badge and left, heading for the [[Indigo Plateau|Pokémon League]]. | Giovanni appeared once more as the Viridian Gym Leader.
