In the core series

Before the formation of Team Star, Giacomo was elected the president of the Naranja AcademyS/Uva AcademyV student council, but the student conduct policies he proposed were so unintuitive and strict that he lost all support. After only a short time in office, he was forced out by the students, who elected Nemona as his replacement. Humiliated and alone, Giacomo found solace and companionship among a group of students who were similarly victims of bullying and ostracism at the school, and they went on to create Team Star. Despite his doubts, the other Bosses of Team Star encouaged him to codify Team Star's current code of conduct, which the group follows to this day.

In addition to the Star Badge, Giacomo gives out TM062 (Foul Play) after defeating him.
