>>28631447the villain thing worked well for giovanni
never got arrested, gave up on his own will when a 10yo old boy beat him in his cozy gym, was so loved as a leader that the remnants of his old team hijacked a radio station just to call him back, even after not reforming the team like he wanted, still managed to pack up and leave without being bothered
he still can go around fighting pokemon tournaments when he feels like it
