idk if you want to hear this but your animatic with giovanni and archer reminded me that canonically (or at least officially, since this happens in the pokemon manga) archer summons arceus and uses it to create dialga palkia and giratina for giovanni, giovanni didn't even ask for it since he was gone โas this is based on the hgss plot of giovanni disappearing and team rocket desperately calling for himโ and even ends up defeating the legendaries in front of a mentally unstable archer, crying for giovanni to stop and that he did all that job for him, only for giovanni to shut him up.
idk i think you'd like hearing this
Oh yes- i love the manga (especially how it feeds my subordinatesshipping hc that archer is so fucking obsessed over Gio)
I don't think Maximilien's openable 'mouth' is a common omnic feature so the first time Ramattra sees it is like seeing someone unhinge their jaw like a snake
nothing else is happening in the last one, its literally only a kiss. archer is just such a freak that even that by its own is enough to break him. (to be fair, it's the first time gio had ever kissed him)
he's so delusional that he almost believes it was genuine reciprocation of his feelings instead of gio playing with his toy and seeing what fun new noises it can make :)
Hi, could you share with us which Giovanni pairings you ship?
Oh boy, sure can. I should preface this by saying that I see Giovanni as an absolute manwhore with commitment issues, so technically all these ships can coexist:
- Giovanni/Ariana
Two bad bitches all around, Gio respects her a whole lot as they are on the same wavelength in most aspects (hc them as Silver's parents. Both regret it)
- Giovanni/Proton
Proton is a determined and feisty kitten who strives for Gio's approval. Unfortunately for his fangirl army Proton's into older men
- Giovanni/Petrel
Gio's weed soking gf and a menace to society. Gio highly appreciates the absolute agent of chaos that Petrel can be
- Giovanni/Archer
I mean, have you seen the guy? He is obsessed. Archer's his boss' loyal dog, Giovanni's the only reason he wakes up in the morning. Will kill and die for him and Gio would have nothing less
- Giovanni/Ghetsis
They hate each other, they want each other. While there's respect and admiration, both have egos the size of the sun, so it's a constant competition for dominance (in multiple ways). They will bite
- Giovanni/Nanu
Go way back, just two old cats. Nanu will do bare minimum to protect Alola from Rocket's shenanigans, yet won't rat Giovanni out to police while he absolutely should. Have a soft spot for each other
- Giovanni/Rose
Rose is charming and easy to manipulate, a win-win for Gio
