- Pantalone is the Ninth of the Eleven Fatui Harbingers, and while he hasn't been seen in game, his presence can be felt around Teyvat. In this video, I decided to go over what we know about him, as well as speculate on his future stories in the game.

He’s Batman. His superpower is literally money
No no Diluc who is Batman since he is the hero
Pantalone is the penguin
i find it fascinating that someone with such incredibly high ambitions doesn't have a vision, considering that's how you get a vision in the first place.
i don’t think fatui like to associate too closely with their visions and mostly become reliant on delusions. it explains why childe can fight entirely on his own without it, and xiao has said that those with a strong will/affinity for the elements like the adepti have no need for a vision. they might view a vision as trying them to the fate of teyvat, which may be why the tsaritsa relies on delusions instead. rene had said that receiving a vision is a terrible fate, and i imagine some of the fatui may agree
Pantalone makes the first NFT in Genshin for the quest involving him.
That guy has the typical crazy guy hiding face from mahnwas
"The currencies that flow through this land are my flesh and blood.
For thus did I become the guarantor of the people's hard work, wisdom, and future.
This is the trust I have placed in them. Betray it, and you taint my blood." This is a description of the Privitha Topaz Gemstone and is a line not yet said by Zhongli and I feel like the perfect opportunity to use it is in a confrontation with Pantalone.
pantalone: business is business
and when Pantalone shows up:
Business is about to pick up.
So he's a parallel to Ningguang. Both were born in destitution and squalor but eventually became a high ranking self-made man and woman, respectively. Both now have influence and power but went different paths in terms on their views of wealth and status.
I'm not sure if he is Liyuean, but then it would not surprise me. A lot of people in Liyue, over rely in their archon and adepti. It's why Zhongli didn't give up his gnosis until he knew the people of Liyue could stand on its own.
Ganyu's character quest shows a character who thinks adepti are just genies who grant wishes. And he is not the only Liyue NPC. Pantey being born as a lower class citizen in a nation that is economically prospering because of its archon might harbor some resentment towards to the Geo Archon.
It wouldn't be much of a surprise if he's originally from Liyue, given that he looks like Baizhu's evil twin.
Seeing how Yelan has this enemies dynamic with pantalone, an AQ Interlude is nice but I hope we get Yelan story quest act 2 givin how yelan story quest was great but kinda underwhelming act 2 is the perfect one for exploring more yelan vs pantalone backstories. But its up to hoyo tho for Yoimiya i kinda get it she get act 2 but Yelan is already one of high selling character in genshin, still this is me manifesting Yelan SQ Act 2 with pantalone and chenyu vale where Yelan came from
Great video, man, thanks for making this! One other fascinating detail about Pantalone you missed regarding "Cashflow Supervision" is that the wording implies that Pantalone is neither from Fontaine OR Liyue. Imo that's really weird, like all the signs point to him being from Liyue, so I wonder what his personal beef with Morax/Mora is?....
Otherwise, I REALLY hope there is not a lot of content between Sneznaya and Khanreiah...I think we'll have earned our endgame by that time.
A few ideas about Story inbetween Snezhnaya-Khaenriah
1.Act VII-Mondstadt (dornman port and maybe the dandelion sea)
*Venti Act 2 storyquest
*An Evil dragon/drake terrorizing mondstadt region once again and brought forth abyssal corruption,and it'd be total chaos like dvalin attacks.
2.Act VIII-Liyue (Blackcliff Forge)
*Maybe more lore about Liyue's gods (possibly that one god who enslave xiao to make him a dreameater) *Osial+beisht attacks again but this time,their bodies has been merged with mechanical abominations (kinda out of place)
3.Act IX-Inazuma and Sumeru *(The purple sea between port ormos and sangonomiya island,and maybe some dark sea lore)
*Tons of sea monsters attack port ormos and sangonomiya island,prompting a joint cooperation between inazuma and sumeru.
*I could imagine a World of warship style gameplay for fighthing off the monsters
-footnote(The whole world gets unstable after tsaritsa used all 7gnosis,making abyssal corruptions/invasions more common).
4.Act X Fontaine and Natlan
(Not too sure about this cuz we havent had much clue about natlan)
*Scylla gets freed and wreak havoc,more lore about celestia and a potential Midair fight like dvalin.
It might give you some ideas,Even though all the story were pretty much "The world is in chaos" Trope
Anyway,love your theory vids^^
I find your ideas really interesting, the one thing I would disagree with is the Tsaritsa using all seven Gnoses. I believe, since it is Pierro who stores them, that she doesn’t want to use them. She will give them to Dottore who can create a mechanical god under the Fatuis control. The YT channel „My name for now“ has a theory video called „How Dottore will end Genshins story“ where they talk about a lot of stuff, but one of their points is about this whole Dottore Gnosis thing, I can recommend that.
@@deathsinger969 oooo thank you for the recomemdation,i'd like to see it
So far every harbinger has seen the abyss or have connections with it,it'd no surprise to see his connections with the "deep sea canyon" (abyss description in the fontaine institute)
But arlecchino said its the job of the harbinger to collect the gnoses,so it wont make sense of him coming as signora already taken geo gnosis away before winter nights lazzo
I really hope he has a geo delusion since he's so steadfast to his beliefs and ambitions just like many geo characters
It can be like the vision he never got
I really hope my man is playable and has a power where he can contract entity’s for stregnth
I love how it's back and forth with Yelan and Pantalone....its giving enemies to lovers vibe ✨
I'm sure regrator only EVER uses proxies, with his money he can buy any mercenary he wants. If we come into direct conflict with him he'll likely be in an indestructible glass room watching us fight his proxies :) (escaping just as we finish off the final proxy) because of his cashflow he probably would have literal szenchnayan proxy robots (aka katherine(s)) versions of himself so even finding the real regrator could be difficult.
Not to mention, Pantalone, being a Fatui Harbinger, also has access to Delusion even if we still don't know his abilities as a combatant and it doesn't matter if he's ranked 9 within the group, he IS still a threat.
i can't help but imagine that if pantalone met zhongli [and realized who the guy was] he'd hate him even more. like "you not only are the being that creates and enforces the rules of mora, *but you have the gall to not bother having the slightest of financial sense*??"
He is literally baizhu
Baizhu when he won the Squid Game.
I forget to leave comments, but I wholeheartedly want to express my gratitude for every video you've made! I adore your content, the quality of the commentary and thought structure. Looking forward to every new video!
I think Tartaglia would have a greater chance of appearing than Dottore since he is a debt collector for the bank
btw does Sumeru have a bank? Has it already been said somewhere in the game? maybe at Bayda port?
because Mond must have one and it must be in Dornman port right?
Great theory and speculation about The Regrator
When he arrives in the game, he'll definitely have some "business" related to Rex Lapis, Liyue and Yelan (at least that's what I hope we'll see)
If Wanderer is Hat Guy, will Paimon call him Pants Guy?
I call him Funny Pants Man
I do. His name is one letter of from being pants in Spanish
I hope you a video like this for Dottore one day!!!
Thanks
Your point about some Fatui harbingers having visions, that is something I’ve wondered about. Why would the Tsaritsa give the harbingers delusions, if they (some of them) already have visions?
You could say to enhance their battle capabilities, but to become a harbinger you already have to bring something of immense value to the table, and it’s no doubt that the cannons of the harbingers are already very capable without delusions… so why then would they be gifted a delusion?
This is interesting
I'd love to see him in one of Liyue's festivals before we reach Snezhnaya
waiting for him to be playable Q~Q have not pulled any harbinger until I get him!!
I thought it would be cool to see Ningguang lead a team of Yelan Beidou and Keqing to take on Pantelone or if not then a fight scene between Pantelone and Zhongli. I think Zhongli is stronger than Pantelone so I’m not putting him in the team that would hunt down the Regrator, but cutscenes for both would be cool.
Lol you "think"? Zhongli is the strongest archon, he is on a different league to Pantelone, even traveller would destroy Pantelone.
@@AndrewsMobs agreed
Curiosity got the best of me. Like I haven't heard this man speak a word and find out he's already a petty shadow capitalist. lol.
Oh wow, it says uploaded 26 seconds ago
I'm not sure about he'll become playable or not but one thing I'm sure is 'all playable characters can't be evil at heart' or at least there must be a redemption arc for them before become playable
so it's depend on how Hoyo portrait him, he can just be an evil mastermind or can be developed some deep into his story. but due to he involved very much with Liyue and technically a direct enemy to Qixing&Yelan I tend to believe that he won't be playable but serve as story driven for Liyue affair in the future instead(and this kind of character tend to die miserably or become a sore loser at the end when all his plan fail and lose to us.....I feel like he might end up like 'Yagami Light' from Deathnote, a mastermind who always move one step ahead but will be corner by Traveler at the end)
I hope Zhongli drops the wrath of the rock upon his head
😮
Pantalone come back your stupid little flying atm machine weapon isnt providing us with enough food
I‘m really looking forward to getting any information on why he looks so similar to Baizhu. Maybe they are twins or siblings, and I wanna see his eyes. I believe that they didn’t show his eyes in A winter night’s Lazzo bc of his similarities to Baizhu, who has Changchen‘s (I don’t know how to spell her and am too lazy to look it up) eyes.
Other than his hair style there is no similarity.
@@AndrewsMobs I disagree, they both wear very similar looking glasses with this rope thingy attached to it. They both chuckle a lot when speaking. They both have hairstyles that are not only similar, but exactly the same, when you compare the the strings of hair and how they are styled, even the shape of their eyebrows match exactly and that is pretty rare in Genshin. And it can’t be a coincidence that they didn’t show Pantalone‘s eyes, since Baizhus are so special. They want us to make a connection between these two, otherwise they wouldn’t have made the choice to not reveal Pantalone‘s eyes.
personally i think they just reused baizhus design and changed it a bit. its clear that hoyo doesnt like baizhu so
Since he is targetting Chenyu vale why would he not appear in the next update?
He could definitely get a few mentions, but I think an appearance from him would've been teased in the trailer.
‘: D
I doubt we'll get Pantalone or Sandrone now, certainly not in the main story or as playable characters. There's just not enough space for them and there's no sign of Fontaine's story rushing to squeeze in an extra Harbinger, instead we got Childe repeated. Still Pantalone's thing seems to be subtle hints in World Quests or the corners of other lesser stories so we'll probably get more of that.
I think Pantalone's constellation is the puppet since he is the "puppet master" pulling the strings of many people in Teyvat, while he himself always remains unseen. Sandrone would have to be the Hopi magical healing hand symbol. They're both too low ranked to be important to the main story now though. We have no interest in any harbinger over rank 4 which leaves Pierro, Capitano and Columbina for the last 3 chapters of which we know Capitano is in Natlan. I doubt we'll see much of Pulcinella.
Then it makes sense for Pantalone to be in the next update.
