Unrepentent Giovanni and Rocket fan

Hi, Kasan Soulblade here, thought I'd toss my hat into the ring and see how it goes.
Welcome to my lair of Manga AU and trainer-centric tales. I'm an unrepentant Team Rocket nerd who likes to dig into the sociological and psychological side of the fandom. Specializing in rich character development and playing with whatever amusing "what if threads" catch my attention.
Fair warning, my works are chronically incomplete, and has the occasional technical issue, but if you're willing to overlook those weaknesses,s I try to make up for it by delivering interesting perspectives, complex characters, and rich narrative.
my tales for the curious...
In progress!
AU Manga verse,
set post post heart gold soul silver arch in illex... the location shifts to an eldritch game'verse of Alola as time goes on.
Giovanni had been blighted by Kantos Legends, a punishment for his audacity for trying to bind the Avian Trio in a bid for both world domination and to find his long-lost son.
Now that he's been cursed, he's dying by inches.
Ironic that he finds his "antidote" in the healing paws of another Legend.
But Celibi isn't merciful like the propaganda portrays him to be. When Giovanni's bid to be healed devolves into utter chaos (the legends are taking their cues from the cruel and unusual backwater of archaic religions, dragging innocents into it, and trying to make the punishment both fit and exceed the crime), Giovanni finds himself in a losing fight. First for his freedom, then to free his son.
When the inevitable happens, and he loses, he wakes to find himself in an alien Region. A far flung place called Alola, his team scattered, with only his starter, a de-evolved weedle, at his side.
His orders from the Legends who run this madhouse are obvious: take the journey, earn the badges, repent, earn the privilege to be reunited with his son.
To Hell with that. He'd brought Regions and Governments to kneel at his feet to find his son the first time; he had no qualms about using each Legend as a stepping stone to first save Silver, then himself, then burn this mad Never Never Land to the ground.

A list of prompts, done out of order. I turned a twenty-eight-day challenge into an archive of Giovanni Sakaki's past, and while the timeline bops about, it's settled into a detailed analysis of Giovanni Sakaki and his (eventual) wife Grace nee Evens and their relationship. The original text was a bit of a disaster, so I started rewriting it, running it through Grammarly, and re-releasing it in saner, less scrambled chunks
Timeline Key:
Prompts (to be completed before the Blitz is done)
Summary: Even Mafioso kids had to get an education in subjects beyond Shop. This is a tale that spans one silly incident involving plumbing, a famiglia who couldn't let a bad joke go, and a disgraceful scramble to fix things when more than the pipes go belly up.
There's also corruption, colleges, and skeevy authority figures. But what else can you expect from a Sakaki trying to get by?
Timeline: C, YA
Rank: Teen approaches Mature per subject matter (discussion of sexual assault)
status: Complete
A book
Summary: Forget Meowths and Growlithes, it's pouring Persians and Arcanine. The Sakaki's decide to make a day in of it, and let responsibility hang. Grace shares her photo album, regaling tales of her childhood conquests. Giovanni, bemused, digs through an old family archive to return the favor...
And really should have vetted his sources better. By accident, Grace discovered a catch of medical paperwork, and both of them start to peruse it out of curiosity. What's uncovered is a lost branch of the Sakaki family, deliberately culled by "wiser heads," and doomed by archaic practices.
