Subway Boss Ingo (Japanese: サブウェイマスターノボリ Subway Master Nobori) is one of the leaders of the Battle Subway in Pokémon Black and White, along with Emmet.

In the games

Ingo can be battled in a Single Battle on the Single and Super Single Trains once the player has acquired either a 20 or 48 consecutive win streak. He can also be battled alongside his brother Emmet in a Tag Battle on the Multi and Super Multi Trains when the same requirements as the Single Trains are met. His teams are identical in both Black and White and Black 2 and White 2.

Quotes

Pokémon Black, White, Black 2, and White 2

Single Train

  • Before battle
"Thank you for riding the Battle Subway today. I am the Subway Boss Ingo. I will choose the next destination based on your talent. Do you understand Pokémon well? Can you hold on to your principle? Will you go on to victory or defeat? All aboard!"
  • When victorious
"Ah. Your battle was not bad at all. However, we seem to have done slightly better than you. We would really like to battle with you again! Please ride the Battle Subway again!"
  • When defeated
"Bravo!! Your talent has brought you to the destination called Victory! However, your journey has just started. When you choose your next destination, go full speed ahead!"

Super Single Train

  • Before battle
"Welcome! I've been waiting for you! Let me introduce myself... I am the Subway Boss Ingo. What can I see after winning, winning, and winning? Where is my destination? I've kept thinking, and I've learned one thing. That is, you cannot know what happens after winning without winning. Therefore, I will exert every possible effort to battle with you. All aboard!"
  • When victorious
"I have won this time, but your talent is very strong! Your tactics...reading... You have great skills. That's right! I would like to battle you again and again! Please ride the Battle Subway again soon!"
  • When defeated
"Bravo! Excellent!! I am glad that I fought so hard against a wonderful Trainer like you. That's right! You grow stronger by matching yourself against a strong opponent. Please do your best and run toward the destination, an even higher state."

Multi Train

  • Before battle
"I am a Subway Boss, Ingo. The fellow over to the side is also a Subway Boss, Emmet. Will a Multi Battle help us cover each other's weakness? Or will you show your overwhelming power? I look forward to seeing how well you fight. However, it is difficult to win unless you and your partner are in total sync."
  • When victorious
"We make a good two-car train, Ingo and Emmet. This time, we worked together toward a victory. However, your abilities are very impressive."
  • When defeated
"Bravo!! What you showed us is a spark as Trainers. However, let me say just one thing. Winning against us is a milestone in your life. You can rack up more and more. Please move on toward an even greater goal!"

Super Multi Train

  • Before battle
"Let me introduce myself again. I am a Subway Boss, Ingo! Well, there is nothing else to say for the person who comes all the way here. Let's have the greatest battle, better than ever before."
  • When victorious
"We, Ingo and Emmet, are a two-car train. This time, we were able to work toward a victory. Well, will you stop here? Or will you challenge us again? It's up to you. But let me say one thing. There is no terminal called End in your life!"
  • When defeated
"Bravo!! Really excellent! The best combination of you and your Pokémon. It is incredible! When you and someone else combine, your engine powers something special! If you like, please challenge us with a different combination."

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2

In front of the Battle Subway

"I'm a Subway Boss. My name is Ingo! Usually, I'm having Pokémon battles in the subway that departs from Gear Station."
  • Before battle
"Having a battle in a place like this is a little irregular, but this must've happened for a reason. Battling in a different place will let me see different scenery, and I might learn something, too. Now, Emmet, if you have something to add, please!"
  • When defeated
"Bravo!! What you showed us is the spark of Trainers. However, let me say just one thing. Please move on to an even greater goal."
  • After being defeated
"Bravo! The combination of you and your Pokémon is truly fantastic!"
"Yes! Definitely! Next time, please ride the subway and battle with us there! Well then, we're off! All aboard!"

In the anime

Ingo in the anime

Ingo made his debut appearance at the end of Beheeyem, Duosion, and the Dream Thief! along with Emmet, where they detected that Team Rocket was tampering with the track switches. In The Beartic Mountain Feud! the pair went in search of what or who was causing these disturbances and they caught a glimpse of two figures—Jessie and James—before they disappeared into the shadows.

In Crisis from the Underground Up! and Battle for the Underground!, Ingo and his brother met Ash, Cilan, and Iris as the subway they were riding had stopped. After Pokémon had been stolen from the Pokémon Center, Ingo and Emmet teamed up with the trio to stop Team Rocket and retrieve all the stolen Pokémon.

Ingo and his brother reappeared in Lost at the Stamp Rally!, where they helped a young girl, Erina, locate her lost Axew. Afterwards, they rewarded Ash and Cilan's good deed by having a Tag Battle against them. Despite Ash and Cilan pushing their hardest, they were finally defeated when Ingo's Chandelure stopped their Pokémon with Psychic, so that Emmet's Eelektross could finish them off with Thunderbolt.

Ingo, along with Emmet, made an appearance in A Surface to Air Tag Battle Team! as part of a fantasy made up by Soren, who boasted that both he and his brother Rocko had beaten the Subway Bosses in a Tag Battle. However, this rumour was quickly disproven by Rocko.

Ingo is referred to as "big brother" by Emmet in the Japanese version of the anime, indicating that he is the older twin.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Adventures manga

Ingo in Pokémon Adventures

Ingo, along with his brother, Emmet, are first seen walking around Gear Station. Later, they are introduced as the Subway Bosses of the newly-created Battle Subway to Black and White. According to the Mayor of Nimbasa City, they were recruited by him because of their strength. Later, when White is invited to take part in the Battle Subway, she boards the train with the Subway Bosses in order to get stronger. Because of their odd, almost robotic behavior, White seems to be afraid of them. He is later seen apprehending Emmet for scaring White.

During their arrival in Anville Town, Ingo battles with White, who had improved her battling skills since the start of her journey. The battle eventually ends in a tie, much to Ingo's disappointment.

Pokémon

Ingo's Klinklang
Klinklang
Klinklang was first seen next to Ingo while White was testing the Battle Subway. During Ingo's battle against White, Klinklang was paired up against White's Servine. By jamming its minigears with leaves, White gained an opening to attack. However, when Servine attacks, both Pokémon are knocked out from the attack, making the battle a tie.

None of Klinklang's moves are known.
