Giovanni also appeared near the beginning of the movie, ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'', as he was the one who had {{an|Dr. Fuji}} clone Mewtwo for him. After Mewtwo destroyed the lab, Giovanni told Mewtwo that he saw him as a valuable partner, putting armor on Mewtwo and using him to defeat Trainers in Gym battles (including Gary's Nidoking and Arcanine, as seen in the anime) and help Team Rocket in their attempts to steal Pokémon.

Eventually Mewtwo confronted Giovanni about its treatment and Giovanni admitted that he didn't see Mewtwo as a partner but as a servant. This enraged Mewtwo and it was this incident which drove it to destroy Giovanni's base, allowing it to escape. | ||
Giovanni is the main antagonist in the movie ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', seeking out Mewtwo, who by this time was living in peace with the cloned Pokémon at [[Mount Quena]]. Once Giovanni discovered it, he tried to recapture it by threatening to use Mewtwo's cloned Pokémon friends in their experiments, experiments that he also claimed would certainly result in their death. He used two machines to try to make Mewtwo submit to his will, but though Mewtwo stepped into the orb, it was still unwilling to serve Giovanni, threatening to destroy his body first. Ash and the others were able to stop the machines, and it was around this time that they faced off against Giovanni and several Team Rocket soldiers. Their Pokémon fought as a distraction so Ash could get Mewtwo into the spring. Once Mewtwo was healed from its injuries, it moved the spring under the mountain to protect it, and then erased the memories of Giovanni and the other Team Rocket soldiers (excluding Jessie, James, and Meowth) of it, making him forget entirely about Mewtwo. Standing next to [[Domino]] and Persian wondering what they were doing, he got the strange feeling as though he had been utterly defeated. | Giovanni is the main antagonist in the movie ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', seeking out Mewtwo, who by this time was living in peace with the cloned Pokémon at [[Mount Quena]].

During {{series|Advanced Generation}}, Giovanni was seen monitoring the actions of [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] and ordering minor actions to Jessie and James. He also had minor roles in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, approving of Jessie, James and Meowth's plan to set up in [[Sinnoh]] and appearing in ''[[DP191|Memories are Made of Bliss!]]'' when the recruiting the trio for an important mission. | |||
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]]. | 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.
