Fankidtober Day 27 – Gabriele doing his father’s classic pose (since I couldn’t resist).
Gabe doesn’t actually know Archer that well though, since he was raised by his other father, Giovanni, in Unova after the man abandoned Team Rocket after being defeated by Red. Born not long after the Gen 1 games, he’s one of the oldest fankids in L&L being in his late 20s during the main plot. He’s the current Castelia Gym Leader – Ground-type specialist just like his dear dad, along with his ace and starter Krookodile. In many ways he’s trying to be just like Giovanni back when he was in Kanto, right down to being kind of a ringleader for some of the other criminally-inclined Unova fankids like Cicely and Ginger (but not Hymnia since she answers to no one). As the oldest, Gabe also has a sort of older-brother type relationship with a lot of them and he tries to look out for them (maybe also since he has three much older half siblings on Giovanni’s side of the fam so wants to be the oldest one for once haha, especially since he rarely sees his half siblings on Archer’s side).
