'The son of Gym Leader Giovanni of Viridian Gym, Mammon, the Champion of last year's Indigo Plateau Conference, has joined Team Rockets and become the Team Rocket Leader!'
This news swept through the entire Kanto region like a whirlwind.
Forums in the Kanto region were almost entirely discussing this matter, and news editors were already working overtime to publish articles.
Undoubtedly, Mammon became famous! Extremely famous!
"Ahhhhhh!! My idol, how could this happen..."
"I can't believe Mammon is such a person. Why would he join Team Rockets, such an Evil Organization!"
"I suggest a thorough investigation! And do you think there's a possibility that Mammon joined Team Rockets, so what about Gym Leader Giovanni?"
"Last year, I already felt that there was something wrong with this Mammon. Such an arrogant and conceited guy is clearly not a good person."
"I think there must be a reason for Mammon! Perhaps he joined Team Rockets because he wanted to change them? Team Rockets can also become good."
"Can the brainless fans just die?"
The internet in the Kanto region was in an uproar at this moment.
After the announcement, Mammon left the Goldenrod Radio Tower with Caitlin and others, while the Jenny chief of Goldenrod City could only watch helplessly.
What else could she do? She couldn't do anything.
Indigo Plateau immediately held an emergency meeting, as the impact of Mammon and Team Rockets this time was significant.
To brazenly use the Goldenrod Radio Tower to 'proclaim to the world' was simply too arrogant!
In the conference room, Charles Goodshow sat at the head of the table, looking around. Almost all the Kanto League high-ranking officials were present, and all the Elite Four were also there.
"So, what do you think about Mammon's public announcement this time?" Charles Goodshow asked in a deep voice.
"It's too arrogant! Simply intolerable! To forcibly occupy the Goldenrod Radio Tower in broad daylight and make a statement causing panic! It's simply not putting our Kanto League in their eyes!"
"That's right! The Team Rockets guys are indeed a bunch of lawless outlaws!"
"Team Rockets, such an Evil Organization, should be dealt with more forcefully, and all of them should be eliminated!"
The League councillors were all indignant, red-faced and thick-necked, looking very angry.
And this was natural; Team Rockets occupying the radio tower and making a public announcement was a complete provocation to their Kanto League!
If they dared to broadcast across the entire region today, what would they dare to do tomorrow?
But wasn't all this just nonsense?
Lance stood with his arms crossed, expressionless. Lorelei just sneered Keep calm. Bruno looked straight ahead. Agatha held a pen, seemingly flipping through an ancient book.
Charles Goodshow rubbed his temples, feeling a headache.
"Quiet, Lio, you speak." Charles Goodshow stopped the councillors' nonsense and looked at Lio.
The conference room became quiet again.
Lio stood up, looking at a document in her hand, her face serious.
"Everyone, I think you all know about Team Rockets, led by Mammon, being active in various regions recently, right?"
Jenny Mio said in a deep voice.
"I have collected a lot of information. Let's go through it briefly so we can clearly assess the current scale and strength of Mammon and Team Rockets."
Jenny Mio stood up and walked to the projector screen.
Upon hearing this, all the Kanto Elite Four also turned their gaze towards Jenny Mio.
Mammon's portrait appeared on the projector.
"First, last year, Mammon, at sixteen, began his journey. At that time, Mammon was still a novice. According to Gym Leader Giovanni, Mammon was still very normal then, and even returned to Viridian Gym in the middle of the year."
"It wasn't until the end of the year that Mammon showed astonishing strength, overwhelming all opponents to win the championship."
Jenny Mio said faintly.
"Then, at the beginning of this year, Mammon, through some unknown channel, joined Team Rockets and became a high-ranking executive of Team Rockets."
Jenny Mio paused here. With Mammon's strength, it wasn't surprising for him to become a high-ranking executive.
Because at this time, although Mammon had not yet captured a legendary Pokémon, his strength was already that of an extremely powerful Champion.
From the intelligence provided by Hoenn, it is known that Mammon even used Mega Tyranitar to fight three opponents at once, simultaneously battling Cynthia, Steven, and Giovanni.
This shows how powerful Mammon's strength is.
Jenny Mio believed that even Adu's ace Dragonite could probably only achieve this level, right?
"He led a portion of Team Rockets members into the Alola region and developed extremely smoothly, successfully recruiting two confidants: Caitlin, the former head of the Sinnoh Battle Chateau, and Gladion, the young master of the Aether Foundation."
"These two are both very young and highly potential Trainers."
Caitlin and Gladion's avatars appeared on the projector.
"The Alola Rocket Team's development was extremely smooth because there was no League in the Alola region, and there were not many powerful Trainers there, making it impossible to resist the Alola Rocket Team. Mammon successfully enabled Team Rockets to achieve good development results in Alola."
Jenny Mio's tone remained calm.
Upon hearing this, some councillors couldn't help but secretly curse the Alola region for being useless.
Charles Goodshow remained silent. Could Alola really be blamed? After all, at the beginning of the year, Alola was just a place without a regional League, and they had no way to deal with Mammon.
"Subsequently, Mammon returned to Kanto for a period. He obtained Dark Mewtwo, created by Team Rockets. Lorelei and Bruno had fought him in Celadon City, but they were not his opponents."
Upon hearing this, Lorelei frowned, but did not refute.
"Then Mammon, for the second time, took a portion of Team Rockets to the Hoenn region. He first absorbed the native Evil Organizations of Hoenn, Team Aqua and Team Magma, and then recruited Zinnia, a Champion-level Trainer specializing in Dragon-type Pokémon and a successor of the Meteor Tribe."
Jenny Mio's tone became much deeper, and Zinnia's avatar appeared on the projector.
Lance's eyes flickered slightly. A Dragon-type Champion-level Trainer?
"At the same time, Caitlin also became a Champion, and most importantly, Mammon captured Kyogre, the deep sea king from Hoenn's myths and legends!"
"During this period, Team Rockets, led by Mammon, including himself, already had three Champion-level Trainers! Especially Mammon, his strength had reached an astonishing level."
Useless Hoenn League!!
The councillors couldn't help but curse inwardly.
"And then, for the third time, Mammon took his confidants to the Unova region. They once again absorbed the native Team Plasma of Unova and recruited two more Champion-level Trainers."
Two more avatars appeared on the projector.
"N, the former leader of Team Plasma, who possesses the ideal Dragon God Zekrom, and Colress, the 'Dark Scientist'. According to intelligence from Unova, both of them are very powerful Champion-level Trainers."
"At the same time, Mammon also captured the real Dragon God Reshiram, and a Rayquaza."
"And now, the fully-fledged Mammon has returned to Kanto. It is estimated that there was an internal rebellion and turmoil, and he eliminated the Team Rocket Leader, taking his place and ascending to the position of Team Rocket Leader."
Jenny Mio said in a deep voice.
"That is to say, the current Team Rockets has five Champion-level Trainers!"
An elderly councillor exclaimed in shock.
"That's right, and it's currently unclear whether the former high-ranking executives and original members of Team Rockets have also pledged allegiance to Mammon, but no matter what, the new Team Rockets is definitely a more serious threat than the original Team Rockets."
Jenny Mio affirmed.
This was a simple comparison that didn't require much thought. Just these five Champion-level Trainers, led by Mammon, were more terrifying than the former Team Rockets.
The destructive power of a Champion-level Trainer is self-evident!
To give a simple example, a top Champion like Adu, with his two main Dragonair, could level the entire Vermilion City in not much time.
The destructive power of a Champion-level Trainer is astonishing.
Not to mention Mammon possessing legends like Primal Kyogre, and even his subordinate N possessing Zekrom.
The entire conference room instantly fell silent.
"So what do we do now?" A councillor's tone had completely changed.
"The Hoenn region, the Unova region, they're truly useless! To let Mammon develop to this extent." Another councillor couldn't help but complain.
In his opinion, wasn't that precisely the case?
"So, our most important task now is to figure out what Mammon's goal is." Jenny Mio sighed and said.
"With the change of the Team Rocket Leader, their organization's policy and goals will definitely change. It is indeed very necessary to clarify this point."
The Joy in charge agreed with this point very much.
"If they are still the same Evil Team Rockets as before, no matter what, as the Kanto League, we must fight them to the end."
Jenny Mio said in a deep voice, even if the new Team Rockets was very powerful, if Team Rockets was still the Evil Organization of the past.
Then there was no need to hesitate or waver, only to fight! Until Team Rockets was eliminated!
Even if Mammon possessed Kyogre, he must be eliminated! Even if it meant paying a heavy price.
"That's right, strengthen security in all areas and closely monitor Team Rockets' movements." Charles Goodshow pondered.
"Also, have Gym Leader Giovanni return as soon as possible. Kanto also needs him to be in charge now."
After all, Giovanni possessed Primal Groudon, which could at least counter Primal Kyogre.
On the other side, in the underground base in Goldenrod City.
Carr had specifically reserved rooms for Mammon and the others, but Sird knocked on Mammon's door.
"Boss, I'm very sorry, I deceived you."
As soon as she entered the room, Sird bowed her head and apologized to Mammon.
"Oh?" Mammon raised an eyebrow; he understood.
"I was originally a member of Team Galactic in the Sinnoh region. Akagi sent me to infiltrate Team Rockets."
Sird directly revealed her true identity: she was an undercover agent for Team Galactic.
"An undercover agent." Mammon narrowed his eyes slightly: "Sird, you've hidden yourself quite well."
Indeed, she had hidden herself very deeply. The fact that Sird, even while concealing her true strength, could become one of the Three Beasts, was enough to prove this point.
Sird's strength was truly outstanding, at least much stronger than Carr's.
In the special edition, it was also she who tricked Red and the others, petrifying all the Pokedex holders.
And on Seven Island, she also defeated Lorelei, who was in seclusion at that time, although Lorelei was in a dispirited state then, it was still evident.
"But now I understand that Team Rockets and you, Boss, are my true home. I will be loyal to you!"
Sird knelt on one knee and sincerely said to Mammon.
Mammon looked at Sird with a half-smile.
"This is my token of loyalty to you."
Sird took out a Poké Ball from her pocket.
"This is a Mythical Pokémon I obtained in Sinnoh previously. Its strength is too great for me to control it. You, Boss, are its best master."
