Lancer is a Pokemon character that appears in Pokemon: Unlimited. He was one of Gulliver's henchmen and the one responsible for the Fish Pokemon living on land through usage of his Auhxxy Berry (Oxy Berry). While starting off as an enemy towards Happy and friends, he grew accustomed to them, with Polly being his biggest contributor. He made his first appearance in Chapter 29.

## Physical Appearance

Lancer appears as a Lantern with unusual features besides his black coat and grayish white fins. Unlike a regular Lantern, he has three bulbs on his three-way anglers, with said bulbs being a bright green, matching the color on his face, and a torn tail fin with the same bright green color on the end. His body has received several scars from his past, including the X-shaped mark on his face and has red pupils.

## Personality

Lancer seems to act slick, especially with his targets. While addressing his foes with a ghastly voice, he would somewhat play it off with a slight chuckle. However, he turns quite mad when something goes wrong, and grows ever more stubborn when being pressed on certain issues. When Polly wanted to know more about his past, he aggressively attacked her as well as denying anything to do with said past and outright refused help from her. Regardless, he is somewhat able to open himself to someone who he could trust, which was Polly. With Gulliver and Quincy, he is very loyal only to Gulliver but doesn't acknowledge Quincy much.

Later on in the series, he is more respectful and reserved, viewing life more in a different light than before, thanks to Polly and is quite kind to his friend Lisa, another Lantern who was originally part of Gulliver's crew but was never acknowledged.

## Powers & Abilities

Lancer's ability is Water Absorb, similar to Polly's ability, but was never really acknowledged much. Without his Beast Berry, some moves he could use were:

* Thunderbolt
* Thunder
* Charge Beam
* Shock Wave
* Heal Bell

With his Auhxxy Berry, he can shoot a white beam, which can change an organism's breathing patterns between land and sea. While it would be considered to be a Beast Berry that could potentially be one of the most dangerous in the series, there is an exception. If said organism can breathe on both land and sea, the Berry's power becomes ineffective towards them, which was shown by Polly, as when she was hit by the beam, she didn't feel anything happen to her, which confused Lancer.

## Overview

### Gulliver Saga

During the Gulliver saga, Lancer was not formally introduced, but only until later. In Gulliver's lair, when Quincy reported back to Gulliver, he asked him where his son was and after giving a response of not finding him, he used Lancer to threaten him into taking his oxygen away before doing the same thing to give it back. However, Gulliver prepared his men for a showdown with Happy and friends, with Lancer hiding away behind a tree further away to control his allies' oxygen in and out of the water. When Polly was fighting Gulliver's henchmen, she noticed that they could breathe both on land and in the water, which was strange to her, prompting her to find the source.

While looking around, Gulliver noticed what she was doing and struck her for it, mostly to prevent her from discovering Lancer. While Happy knocked Gulliver into the water, it gave Polly a chance to find the source and spotted a gleam of light in the thick trees, leading her to Lancer but he shot a white beam to drive her back a bit before she got to finally confront him. Intrigued, he humored Polly a bit by telling her about his Beast Berry before fighting her.

During the fight, he managed to weaken Polly and decided to use his Auhxxy Berry powers on her, only to realize that it didn't work due to her being able to breathe on both land and sea throughout her life. Despite her weak condition, she wanted to know Lancer personally. He attempted to use more electric attacks after his Berry power failed on her, but ran out of power to finish her. Polly managed to pry information about how he was abused and tortured by his "captors" before using Mud Shot on his eyes as a way to blind him, more likely as a way to gain her trust. He collapsed after using too much power, with Polly carrying him with Psychic to where the rest of the action was. After Gulliver was defeated, Lancer was brought aboard on Happy's ship to find a better life for him, which was a place called Twilight City.

### Mimi Saga

During the Mimi saga, Lancer makes his first trip at Twilight City with Happy and friends. He went with Happy and Polly to the aquarium, only to find out that Lisa was working there. He thanked them both for the opportunity to meet Lisa again and went out to take a stroll into town, understanding why no one found it strange that he was the only one swimming on land. The second time he, Happy and Polly visited the aquarium, it was now under attack by a Magnecruel, which harmed Lisa. He was unable to even damage it, but thanks to Charles, he carried Lisa to the hospital. Seeing the danger that lurked outside, he went to help Happy and friends, but more likely Polly as a way to pay her back.

During Mimi's assault, Lancer began to use Heal Bell, which lifted the effects of paralysis on Happy, allowing him to get back on the action. However, Malice, one of Mimi's closest assistants, launched a Self-Destruct attack on Polly, to which Lancer used Protect to block the explosion, saving Polly from death. Once Mimi was down to her last moment, Lancer, along with Lisa and many others assisted Happy in delivering the final blow. After that, he and Lisa were never seen again.
