Mega Dimension contains numerous references to older Pokémon games and carries over characters and plot threads from several generations. Corbeau, leader of the Rust Syndicate, reveals that Lysandre helped raise him and later discloses that Giovanni, the Team Rocket leader from Generation I, also once took him under his wing. The revelation occurs during Mega Dimension's post-game while the player hunts Rayquaza and recalls a Kanto organization boss familiar with Johto and Hoenn legends. Giovanni's complicated history, including an abandoned son revealed in earlier games, casts the mentorship as potentially redemptive, while some fans view it as pandering fanservice.
