Roman

Roman (Japanese: チアキ Chiaki) is one of the characters of the day in A Full Course Tag Battle! of the Pokémon anime. He appeared along with his fiancée, Kylie.

Roman is the owner of the Seven Stars Restaurant on the Valor Lakefront. Trainers must battle him and his fiancée in a Double Battle in order to eat in the restaurant for free.

Roman and Kylie first battled with Ash and Brock and were easily defeated by them. They were then to battle May and Dawn but, before they could battle, Team Rocket broke in the restaurant and stole all the food. Roman was upset by this and wondered what his father would say.
