Meeting Giovanni... GIORNO?!

When Ace left the Mine, he looked over and sighed, "You guys… You want to steal from me?" Jessie, James, and Meowth froze. They jumped over quickly, leaning on him, "Awe! Boss, you're so funny! Hahaha! Wow! Hilarious! Can we get a raise?"

Ace peeled them off speechlessly, "You don't even work here!" They gave him a funny look as Officer Jenny arrived, "Ace!" Ace looked over and the Trio hid behind him, Officer Jenny glared at them, "You're under arrest for impersonating Gym personnel!"

Ace was speechless, asking, "You guys really impersonated Gym Trainers…?" They smiled sheepishly as Ace rubbed his forehead, looking at Officer Jenny, "Sorry, Jen. These funny guys are new recruits…"

The trio were touched, "Boss!" Officer Jenny looked at him suspiciously as he rolled his eyes, "Just don't worry about it, I'll handle it." She nodded and waved, "Well, handle it, Ace! I'm busy and I can't take care of all this nonsense, okay!?" Ace nodded and said helplessly, "You can take a break…"

Officer Jenny smiled happily, leaning on him, "Boss! Hehe~ You're too kind! Can I also get mods on my RotomRunner?!" Ace's lips twitched and he peeled her off, "Just go to the shop…"

Officer Jenny cheered and got on her RotomRunner, zooming away extremely fast. James and Jessie peeked out from Ace's shoulders, "Speed Demon Jenny is gone! Phew! But that's a nice bike! Meowth, we should steal the Blueprints!"

Ace looked up at Meowth, "Mine, again." Meowth was dumbfounded, "How many good things do you have?!" Ace shrugged, "Too many. Anyway, you're going to come with me for now. Since you impersonated a Gym Trainer, you need some Training."

Jessie and James got their ankles grabbed as they tried to run, "No! No, we're too young and beautiful! Save me!" Meowth sat on Ace's shoulder, sighing, "What a cruel world!" though he looked happy.

Ace rolled his eyes and dragged them to the Gym.

He tossed them inside, "Release 'em!" they released their Pokemon and Ace took a look. Ace looked at them all and complained, "Jessie, you didn't catch anything here?" Jessie spread out her hands and Ace looked at the Mime Jr, who was mimicking his movements.

He twisted and Mime Jr twisted happily, "Mime Mime!" Ace smiled and asked, "Do you want her to evolve?" James was stunned and looked at Mime Jr, "Do you want to evolve, girl?"

Mime Jr tilted her head, "Mime?" Ace tapped his watch and projected two Mr Mimes, "Mime Jr, you can choose one or not evolve and stay the same. If you chose the Blue one, there's another evolution after." as he added Mr Rime to the hologram.

Meowth rubbed his chin, "I don't wanna." Ace looked him, "Nobody's asking you. Also, you can't evolve." Meowth was dumbfounded, "What?! Why not! Look, I'll do it right now!" as he strained himself.

Ace rubbed his forehead, "You can Gigantamax. You can't evolve anymore." Meowth tilted his head, "I can WHAT?" Ace rolled his eyes, "When you get to Galar, you'll understand what I mean." as he turned back to Mime Jr.

Mime Jr said "Mime?" Meowth translated, "She said, 'These aren't cute!'" Ace's eyes twitched, "Then forget it." James hugged Mime Jr happily as Ace rubbed his neck, "Well, let's get to Training then!"

The three froze and Ace released all his Pokemon, whistling.

The Long Lost Fossil Pokemon returned, jumping on Ace and licking his face. 

James leaned over, whispering, "Jessie, did you see Ace not move at all?" Jessie whispered, "I know, that Tyrantrum looks like it weighs over a ton…" Meowth whispered, "Ace is still a monster…"

Ace started training with the Rocket trio when their Phone started ringing. Ace looked over as James said, "It's the boss!" The phone answered and Giovanni appeared, "Are you established yet?"

James' lips twitched, "Haha… Boss! Well, it-" Ace took the phone and connected to his watch, looking at Giovanni, who was surprised, "Oh. Mr Ace." Ace looked at him and said, "Hope you're not mad at the Publicity."

Giovanni snorted in amusement, "And if I am?" Ace shrugged and grinned, "I don't care." Jessie and James paled, "Oh no!" Giovanni stroked his Persian, "Is that so… My subordinates are in your hands? Are you interested in joining Team Rocket?"

James, Jessie, and Meowth: Boss is brave!

Ace looked at him and said, "It depends." The trio were shocked and Giovanni looked interested, Ace continued, "Are you still obsessed with Mewtwo?" Giovanni's lips twitched, Ace looked at him and smiled, "I guess not! Good. That guy probably hates you. So, what's your Rocket Mission Statement? Are you trying to conquer the World or what?"

Giovanni didn't know this guy was so infuriating to talk to, before he could say anything, he looked at the trio, "Get, you guys go wait in another room, okay?" The trio looked at each other and left quickly.

Giovanni looked at Ace seriously, "What do you want, really?" Ace replied seriously, "I'm serious." Giovanni frowned and Ace explained, "I want you to tell me the truth. Are you growing the Rockets for Silver, or for another reason?"

Giovanni froze and looked at Ace in shock, "What!?" Ace sighed, scratching his head, "Did I guess right?" Giovanni frowned, "Who told you about SIlver?! If you touch him, I'll-" Ace waved his hand, "Woah woah. Calm down, Giovanni. I'm not threatening you, seriously. I want to know what your plans are. Is it for Silver or not!"

Giovanni snorted and retorted, "Do you know where he is?" Ace looked at him in silence as Giovanni pinched his temples, "Yes, you're correct…" Ace smiled happily, "Great! The Sinnoh Region is run by Team Galactic. Cyrus is the Boss and he has 4 Cadres. His goal is to control Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina to recreate the Universe without emotions."
