Carl

Carl (Japanese: カーツ Kurtz), known as Keane in Chuang Yi's translation, along with Karen, Will, Green, Silver, and Sham, is one of the children kidnapped by the Masked Man and raised to be his servants. Carl was one of the sub-leaders of the new Team Rocket formed in Johto.

He appears to be based on the original Rocket Executive class from Generation II.

History

Carl debuted The Mightiest Ho-Oh with Sham attacking the Team Rocket Elite Trio. While doing so, his superior, the Masked Man, came and took the two executives away, telling them that he needed them to rebuild Team Rocket.

He appeared once more in Stop Snoring, Slowking. He faced Gold and Crystal alongside Sham as to buy time for the Masked Man to get to Ho-Oh and for the rest of Team Rocket to get to the Indigo Plateau. Fortunately, they were swiftly beaten by the duo and haven't appeared yet to date, save several flashbacks and memories of Green and Silver's childhood captivity under the Masked Man.

  • Coronis, who is known for coining fan names for manga characters who lack American names, coined the name Cart based on his Japanese name long before the release of VIZ Media's translation, which uses the similar name "Carl".
