Iota is Jackal/Panther’s primary rival in Pokemon Genesis. His first Pokémon is an Elekid.
Early Life[]
Iota was once a member of Junior Pokemon United, but he quit when he found stealing Pokémon too exciting.
Personality[]
Iota is harsh and cynical. He dislikes losing greatly and prefers stealing other trainer’s Pokémon. It is unknown if the Pokémon he uses are stolen or actually caught. Although he says he is friends with Elara, he has stolen her Pokémon before and never treats her with respect.
