==Personality==
  +
Colress is a scientist who aims to unlock the full potential of Pokémon, regardless of the cost. For this reason, he chooses to side with Team Plasma and assist them with their plans as long as his research remains unimpeded. Despite his allegiances, Colress openly disagrees with Plasma's ideologies and greatly dislikes Ghetsis, though his opinions on the other Sages is unknown. Throughout the games, Colress is depicted as genuinely helpful and friendly, regarding the player character as a worthy opponent and acquaintance. He is excitable and passionate about his research and battling, and will repeatedly ask the player character for rematches if visited during the postgame. Despite this, he is said to be mysterious and difficult to read.

===Black 2 and White 2===
Colress is first encountered in the [[Castelia Sewers]] after defeating two Team Neo Plasma grunts. He is met again on the northern part of the city. He explains to the player that he disagrees with the old Team Plasma's ambitions to liberate Pokémon from the grasps of humans. He is instantly encountered again on [[Route 4]]. He helps the player proceed by moving a group of [[Crustle]] that were blocking the path. He then challenges the player to a battle for the first time.

After the player fights his/her way through the [[Plasma Frigate]], Colress is encountered again in his chamber on the ship. Much to the player's disbelief, Colress reveals that he sided with Team Neo Plasma to help with his research on bringing forth the full power of Pokémon. He then challenges the player to another battle. When he is defeated, he applauds the player's determination and allows entrance to [[Ghetsis]]'s quarters on the ship.

Colress remains on the Plasma Frigate even after the player defeats the [[Elite Four]] and the [[Champion]]. He can be rebattled once per day, and he will give the player a [[Master Ball]] after the first rematch. After he is rebattled the first time, he can be found on the helm of the frigate.

  +
  +
===X and Y===
  +
Years prior, Colress had been seen in [[Kalos]], after a [[Backpacker]] from [[Route 10 (Kalos)|Route 10]] speaks of him asking about the rock pillars on the route.
  +
  +
===Sun and Moon===
  +
Colress visits the Alola region. Commenting how great it looks, Colress gives the player character a TM containing [[Flame Charge]] and after the player character becomes the champion, he'll meet them on Route 8 and gives the Genesect Drives. He can also be fought in the Battle Tree.
  +
  +
===Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon===
  +
Like ''Sun and Moon'', Colress also stays in the Alola region, though his role is expanded. The player character can first encounter him in [[Tide Song Hotel]], though he is seen to be engrossed in talking to himself and therefore doesn't notice the player character. He is revealed to be an acquaintance of the [[Ultra Recon Squad]] that they have reached out to ask for help. He has invented the [[N-Solarizer]] and the [[N-Lunarizer]] based on his experience with [[Kyurem]] which is a fusion Pokémon in response to their request. After witnessing [[Necrozma]]'s capture in the player character's hands on [[Mount Lanakila]], he gives both devices to them.
  +
  +
During the [[Team Rainbow Rocket]] incident, [[Wicke]] contacts Colress and asks him to enlist the player character and [[Lillie]], who are trying to defeat the bosses of the evil organisation, by transporting the bosses back to their respective universes. He doesn't reveal his presence to Lillie and the player character due to using an invisibility device, and only reveals himself to help the player character save Lillie when Ghetsis holds Lillie hostage. He still opposes Ghetsis' goals and declares his hatred to his former boss although he knows that the Ghetsis in front of him is only a counterpart, before dispatching Ghetsis with a prototype device named "Colress Machine No. 1102", allowing the player character and Lillie to work their way up to rescue Lusamine and defeat [[Giovanni]] while he works to figure out a way to untangle the dimensions that are tangled to create the castle of Team Rainbow Rocket and restore the mansion back to normal. He successfully manages to revert and restore the mansion by the time the player character defeats Giovanni.

Latest revision as of 21:23, 5 January 2024

Colress is a boss of Team Plasma, debuting in Black 2 and White 2. He researches Pokémon strength and is experimenting on something to do with the dormant abilities of Pokémon.

Appearance

Colress is a man with blonde hair and wears a blue cowlick around his head. He has yellow eyes and wears glasses.

Black 2 and White 2

He wears a long white lab coat, a pair of white gloves and a black uniform with blue outlines. He also wears black shoes.

Sun and Moon

He wears a gray lab trench coat with tech panels and technologically advanced gloves, as well as black pants and black boots with gray accents.

Personality

Colress is a scientist who aims to unlock the full potential of Pokémon, regardless of the cost. For this reason, he chooses to side with Team Plasma and assist them with their plans as long as his research remains unimpeded. Despite his allegiances, Colress openly disagrees with Plasma's ideologies and greatly dislikes Ghetsis, though his opinions on the other Sages is unknown. Throughout the games, Colress is depicted as genuinely helpful and friendly, regarding the player character as a worthy opponent and acquaintance. He is excitable and passionate about his research and battling, and will repeatedly ask the player character for rematches if visited during the postgame. Despite this, he is said to be mysterious and difficult to read.

Etymology

His name comes from "colorless".

His Japanese name is derived from "achromatic".

Biography

Black 2 and White 2

Colress is first encountered in the Castelia Sewers after defeating two Team Plasma grunts. He is met again on the northern part of the city. He explains to the player character that he disagrees with the old Team Plasma's ambitions to liberate Pokémon from the grasps of humans. He is instantly encountered again on Route 4. He helps the player character proceed by moving a group of Crustle that were blocking the path. He then challenges the player character to a battle for the first time.

Colress is again seen in the Pokémon World Tournament in Driftveil City. He is the final opponent.

Later on the player character encounters him again on Route 22. He talks to the player character mostly about Team Plasma and gives the player character the Colress Machine.

After the player character fights their way through the Plasma Frigate, Colress is encountered again in his chamber on the ship. Much to the player character's disbelief, Colress reveals that he sided with Team Neo Plasma to help with his research on bringing forth the full power of Pokémon. He then challenges the player character to another battle. When he is defeated, he applauds the player character's determination and allows entrance to Ghetsis's quarters on the ship.

When the player character enters Ghetsis's chamber, he reveals that Colress is the boss of Team Plasma. He rants about his defeat.

Colress remains on the Plasma Frigate even after the player character defeats the Elite Four and the Champion. He can be rebattled once per day, and he will give the player character a Master Ball after the first rematch. After he is rebattled the first time, he can be found on the helm of the frigate.

X and Y

Years prior, Colress had been seen in Kalos, after a Backpacker from Route 10 speaks of him asking about the rock pillars on the route.

Sun and Moon

Colress visits the Alola region. Commenting how great it looks, Colress gives the player character a TM containing Flame Charge and after the player character becomes the champion, he'll meet them on Route 8 and gives the Genesect Drives. He can also be fought in the Battle Tree.

Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

Like Sun and Moon, Colress also stays in the Alola region, though his role is expanded. The player character can first encounter him in Tide Song Hotel, though he is seen to be engrossed in talking to himself and therefore doesn't notice the player character. He is revealed to be an acquaintance of the Ultra Recon Squad that they have reached out to ask for help. He has invented the N-Solarizer and the N-Lunarizer based on his experience with Kyurem which is a fusion Pokémon in response to their request. After witnessing Necrozma's capture in the player character's hands on Mount Lanakila, he gives both devices to them.

During the Team Rainbow Rocket incident, Wicke contacts Colress and asks him to enlist the player character and Lillie, who are trying to defeat the bosses of the evil organisation, by transporting the bosses back to their respective universes. He doesn't reveal his presence to Lillie and the player character due to using an invisibility device, and only reveals himself to help the player character save Lillie when Ghetsis holds Lillie hostage. He still opposes Ghetsis' goals and declares his hatred to his former boss although he knows that the Ghetsis in front of him is only a counterpart, before dispatching Ghetsis with a prototype device named "Colress Machine No. 1102", allowing the player character and Lillie to work their way up to rescue Lusamine and defeat Giovanni while he works to figure out a way to untangle the dimensions that are tangled to create the castle of Team Rainbow Rocket and restore the mansion back to normal. He successfully manages to revert and restore the mansion by the time the player character defeats Giovanni.

Trivia

  • Colress always appears as the final opponent in the first Driftveil Tournament visit, as the opponents fought are scripted to win, with Hugh being the first trainer, and Cheren being the second.
