The Pokemon GO Fest events that have been happening this past summer have been teasing the arrival of Team Rocket. Prior to people spotting Giovanni, several players have spotted Team Rocket grunts in June. Just one month later, players were spotting hot-air balloons in the distance, displaying the Team Rocket logo.

With the recent sightings of Giovanni in early August, players are suspecting that Team Rocket will be soon be entering the Pokemon GO universe. The official Pokemon GO Twitter account even made a strange tweet that was framed like it was written from a member of Team Rocket, making it look like the Twitter account was hijacked.
We follow the villainous path of those before us—and we will succeed in finally bringing Giovanni’s vision to the world! If you insist on trying to disrupt our plans, we will make you feel a world of pain! - Team GO Rocket

We are not sure what Giovanni's intentions are, but it might be possible that players will get the chance to battle the Team Rocket leader in gym battles, much like how Team Rocket grunts have started to target PokeStops. But for now, we will have to wait and see if anything comes of this.
