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.

Despite being feared by Jessie, James and Meowth , he usually displays a very calm demeanour, even in battle. In spite of the trio's countless failures he did trust them to infiltrate the Unova region alone. Although he is very often seen stroking his Persian, he keeps the rest of his Pokémon in cages and stated to Mewtwo that they could never been seen as equals as the latter was created artificially by humans. Although calm and cool, Giovanni is evil at ruthless, threatening to kill Mewtwo's clones if the Legendary Pokémon didn't comply to him and threatening to kill Ash and Pikachu if Meloetta didn't surrender. Immediately following the failure of Operation: Tempest, Giovanni was still able to smile showing a logical mind as opposed to a reckless one.
