Angered, Red sends out Poli to attack, but in the short amount of time that he does so, Giovanni successfully releases his Cloyster and freezes Poli. Declaring the importance of a Trainer's own physical aptitude in addition to his Pokémon's, Giovanni compliments Red on his traits of determination, spontaneity, and empathy, lamenting that the boy was not under his allegiance. Issuing a challenge, Giovanni adds a bet to the battle; he will let him go if he wins, but if he loses he will swear his loyalty to Giovanni and fight for him.
