In the beginning of the {{series|Best Wishes}} Giovanni took on a far more significant and antagonistic role than before, now being in regular contact with Jessie, James and Meowth and assigning them on various missions throughout the [[Unova]] region. He was now often seen with a [[Matori|secretary]], that helped him in giving orders to Jessie, James and Meowth. Giovanni appeared traveling to Unova in ''[[BW022|A Venipede Stampede!]]''. He was set to appear again in two [[BW023 (unaired)|following]] [[BW024 (unaired)|episodes]], but these never aired and ultimately were retconned out of canon.  He did not make any more appearances for a long time afterward, with Matori explaining that he was too busy to be in regular contact with Jessie, James, and Meowth anymore. During this time, his role as the trio's leader was filled by [[Dr. Zager]].

The first time Giovanni had been seen in battle was in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]''. He used powerful Pokémon against Gary but later left the Gym to deal with an unexplained emergency, leaving Ash to battle Jessie. By the time Ash returned from Hoenn, Agatha was in charge of the Gym until a new Leader could be found. Giovanni's reasons for leaving it have not been explained. In ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'', Giovanni finally confronted Ash in a battle and won easily.
