Rumors Surfacing on Former Rocket Leader

by Daisy Oak - Saffron Star
November 15, 1990

It has been reported that the old laboratory on Cinnabar Island has resumed activity, and that it has to do with Giovanni, the former business magnate and owner of Rocket Corporation.

The loss of Rocket Corporation did not seem to greatly affect Giovanni, and compared to the rest of his sparkling career, this is a minor setback.

Giovanni came into the public eye as a fantastic Trainer with a mastery of Ground-Type Pokemon. Giovanni collected the then-seven badges of Kanto and challenged the Elite Four. His campaign was widely publicized. Unfortunately, he lost against the Champion, Agatha, but he was immediately offered a position as the eighth gym leader of Kanto.

As a gym leader, he took out a research grant for a bold idea. Giovanni used  computer progams to create the cyber-Pokemon, Porygon. The public response was so receptive that Giovanni had to create a way to mediate sales. So he built the Rocket Game Corner, where Porygon was the top prize. The Rocket enterprise was born.

Giovanni was always interested in science, and with his newfound fortune, he began research on what interested him the most: Life.

Giovanni still has much of his initial fortune, and it is reported that experiments have been going on in his Cinnabar mansion along with the experiments in the laboratory.
