Ingo and Emmet are the Subway Bosses who run the Battle Subway in Pokémon: Black and White Versions.
Background
Ingo and Emmet are a set of oddly-dressed twins who run Unova's Battle Subway. Of the two, Emmet was the more oddly formal, as he was concerned with safety procedures and seemed to have a habit of re-introducing himself before most sentences. Emmet also liked to take battles seriously in order to make them more fun, and he claimed to like winning battles above all else. As for Ingo, he was more analytical of trainer's skills and often used train terms as metaphors to describe one's progress. He was also confident in his and Emmet's prowess as a "two-car train". They both generally encouraged others to ride the trains more and to improve themselves.
They could appear for battle after 20 and 48 consecutive victories on one of train's several lines. Ingo and Emmet could be battled individually or as a pair, depending on the line chosen. Ingo was battled individually at the Single and Super Single lines, while Emmett ran the Double and Super Double lines due to his preference for double battles. The pair can only be battled together on the Multi and Super Multi Lines.
Pokémon Roster
Ingo and Emmet all have the same Pokémon, but the ones they use depend upon the battle. Ingo has three Pokémon during normal battles with him, while Emmet has four (due to his being Double Battles), and four Pokémon are also used for the Multi battles. These are the Pokémon that can be used in the first battle (which is the 21st consecutive battle fo a particular line):
- Crustle (replaced by Galvantula in Multi battles)
- Klinklang
- Garbodor
- Durant (not used by Ingo)
This is the roster used in rematches (the 49th consecutive battle of a particular line):
- Excadrill
- Haxorus
- Chandelure (replaced by Archeops in Multi battles)
- Eelektross (not used by Ingo)
Trivia
- Ingo's name is a play on "ingoing" in reference to an ingoing train. Emmet's name seems to be a pun on "emit", which would refer to an outgoing train.
- Ingo wears black while Emmet wears white in reference to the yin-yang theme which is present throughout Black/White. Additionally, Ingo seems to be frowning in his official artwork while Emmet is smiling.
