Character
Despite his young age, Lack-Two is a member of the International Police with an S rank in the organization. He is tasked with searching for any remaining members of the villainous group, Team Plasma. When not on the job, he acts like a womanizer by constantly flirting with the girls around him. When he is on the job, he takes on a more serious and professional persona.
Like Looker, Lack-Two also uses the International Police Arms, but is more successful in using them. The jumpsuit he wears underneath his regular clothing doubles as a set of armor that can protect him from attacks.
History
Lack-Two makes his first appearance breaking up with a teary Yancy, as they both feel that their relationship is interfering with her career as an idol. Afterward, he travels to the Aspertia Gym with Petashi to start their class at the Trainer's School. Upon arriving, Hugh gets angry at Lack-Two and exclaims that he needs to focus more on making himself stronger instead of flirting with girls.
Annoyed by their disrupting the class, the new teacher, Cheren, forces the three to sit outside in the seiza position while the class is still in session. Soon after, the three encounter a new classmate named Whi-Two. While she informs the class about herself, Lack-Two takes the time to write down what she is saying in his notebook, much to Hugh's annoyance. The three get into another argument, leading Cheren to decide that it would be best for the entire class to battle each other.
Lack-Two and Whi-Two both manage to win, which earns them two Pokédexes from Bianca. Although reluctant at first, Whi-Two is coaxed into taking her Pokédex after Lack-Two sweet-talks her into it. Later, Lack-Two reveals that he is searching for Team Plasma members and crosses out Yancy and his classmates because he has considered all of them as having no connection to the team. He is approached by Looker, who had been searching for him. After defeating a Scolipede that attacked Looker, Lack-Two reveals that he is actually Looker's superior in the International Police.
The two then travel to Aspertia's alleyways where Lack-Two meets up with his gadget and health maintenance man, the Magician. Lack-Two has the Magician perform a scan of him so that he can created a special Poké Ball cover to help make using Poké Balls easier. After he makes Looker take a training test and sees him fail, Lack-Two tells Looker to get better at handling hard conditions. Soon after, a loud explosion rings outside. They head out to investigate, and find that the culprit is a Genesect.
Lack-Two immediately leaps into attacking the Paleozoic Pokémon, but it shrugs off Dewott's attacks easily. Lack-Two reveals that when he started his investigation on Team Plasma, he found slightly-destroyed information on Genesect at the P2 Laboratory. After distracting Genesect into revealing its cannon, Lack-Two discovers that it's being controlled by someone close by. He uncovers the culprit, the scientist currently at large for his illegal crimes for conducting unauthorized crimes on Pokémon, Colress.
Colress commends Lack-Two for discovering him and has Genesect attack directly with Techno Blast. Lack-Two survives due to his armor and Dewott's assistance. He deduces that since Colress is using a machine to control it, Genesect must technically be a wild Pokémon. After having the Magician send him the custom Poké Balls, Lack-Two prepares to capture Genesect.
In conjunction with Dewott's attacks, Lack-Two continuously throws Poké Balls in order to quickly weaken Genesect by forcing it to defend itself from two different opponents. Colress notices that one of the Poké Balls thrown was a Luxury Ball, which happens to work similarly to his goals on increasing a Pokémon's strength. Lack-Two replies that Colress is a failure at his goals, causing the doctor to get very angry. Colress switches one of Genesect's Drives to the Shock Drive, allowing Genesect's Techno Blast to become an Electric-type move. Genesect's attack causes a powerful explosion, but Lack-Two manages to successfully capture Genesect after the smoke clears. Defeated, Colress reveals that he is the new leader of Team Plasma and makes his escape.
When people start coming over to investigate what happened, Lack-Two reverts to his false personality to woo more girls, earning him Looker's anger. Lack-Two reveals that he only does this to find a former female Team Plasma Grunt. He explains that the girl was tasked with protecting a chip containing data on a machine that can counteract Colress's machine. Afterward, Looker tells Lack-Two to start writing a report and to send Genesect to International Police Headquarters.
