Gonzap & Team Snagem
Gonzap is a prominent figure in the early stages of Pokémon Colosseum, serving as the leader of Team Snagem, a group of opportunistic thugs who operate in the Orre region. Initially, Team Snagem acts as a direct obstacle for Wes, engaging him in battles and attempting to hinder his progress. However, their story takes a turn as they become entangled with the more sinister Cipher organization. Gonzap, while portrayed as a gruff and somewhat comical villain, is ultimately a pawn in Cipher's larger scheme, manipulated for their own nefarious purposes. His interactions with Wes and his eventual involvement with Cipher highlight the complex web of criminal activity in Orre.
Team Snagem's sature tactic involves using specialized devices to "Snag" Pokémon from unsuspecting trainers, a method that Wes himself adopts and refines. This shared methodology creates an interesting dynamic between Wes and Gonzap. Despite their initial antagonism, there's a sense of shared purpose, albeit with vastly different moral compasses. This section will explore Gonzap's character, Team Snagem's modus operandi, and their eventual role within the broader conspiracy orchestrated by the Cipher organization, shedding light on their place in the game's narrative.
