10 Video Game Characters Whose Fates Are Never Resolved
4. Giovanni - Pokémon Franchise
Pokémon has a lot of characters whose fates are never truly resolved: where did Red go after Mt. Silver? Is Whitney still crying? Has Youngster Joey caught his perfect Rattata yet? Massive questions we may never know the answers to.
One character whose fate really should be resolved by now, however, is Team Rocket's commander-in-chief: Giovanni. The self proclaimed 'strongest trainer' forged a legacy within the Pokémon franchise that began in Kanto, saw his remnant desperately searching for him in Johto and even re-entered the franchise in Ultra Sun & Ultra Moon as the head of Team Rainbow Rocket, the scourge of the Alola region.
After a pretty challenging battle against Giovanni's team (including Mewtwo!); the player witnesses Giovanni abandoning his most recent plan for world domination and warps to parts unknown - is he gone forever? Will he reconcile with his son? Is Mewthree on the cards? We just don't know and, probably, will never find out.
It would be fatiguing for the Pokémon games to roll Giovanni out again but closure is certainly needed. Maybe the crime lord will abandon his evil ways and take to running a cattery with his beloved Persian instead.
