raid on the city!!

[forprofit]

[Hello, fellow Rockets and general wrong-doers! You may or may not recognize this man in his dashing white uniform and red insignia wandering around the plains, seemingly searching for something or someone. He's had a long enough while to get more familiar with this place, so now he's in an exploring mood. Maybe there's a nicely furbished abandoned building around here he can claim...

There's a sharp-looking Houndoom next to him, but that aside, he looks pretty harmless - unless you're a hat-wearing kid with too many morals. He might be up for chatting.]

[Well, some progress is better than no progress.] And you may throw me away if you wish, once you become Boss.

[redheir]

No way. I'll have you all to myself!

[forprofit]

Is that so? Well, you'll be able to do whatever you like to me, then.

[redheir]

Duh. We'll only do fun stuff.

[forprofit]

Fun stuff? [Like stealing?]

[redheir]

Yeah, fun stuff. Duh!

[forprofit]

What do you have in mind...? [MAYBE HE SHOULDN'T ASK.]

[redheir]

I'm gonna beat all the gyms and get all the badges and take on the league! Then I'm gonna go beat the Johto gyms and then I'm gonna go around the world and get the best Pokémon from everywhere!

[ALL SAID VERY RAPIDLY]

[forprofit]

[Oh no you don't-] Except Team Rocket and its Boss doesn't waste its time with petty goals like that.

[redheir]

No way, being champion like five times is the coolest!

[forprofit]

[He crosses his arms. Sigh!] You'll get out of this phase soon enough.

[redheir]

[Huff!]

[forprofit]

[Huff indeed, but Archer isn't going anywhere. Looks like he's resigned himself to impromptu babysitting service yet again.]

[redheir]

[Well, then, Silver's just gonna scoop up his Nidoran and stomp off in a random direction! Even though he knows that Archer is gonna follow him.]

[forprofit]

[Well someone has to make sure Silver doesn't trip or get too dirty or make sure he gets to bed on time and brushes his teeth and eats a properly balanced meal and and and-]

[redheir]

Stop following me!

[He will be so, so unappreciative.]

[forprofit]

Surely you're used to it by now.

[redheir]

Mother wants to find you! Go bother her, she wants you.

[You were talking about having Archer to yourself a minute ago, Silver.]

[forprofit]

[ya rly] She'll understand a little delay if I'm with you.

[redheir]

You're so annoying!! I don't need you! Go away! You're not even helpful, you're gonna make training hard!

[forprofit]

[Oh yeah he doesn't miss this a bit.] I'm just watching you from a distance.

[redheir]

Fine! Then you can't--

[Silver pauses, thinking he sees something. Nidoran certainly is growling at it!]

? Was that a Pokémon?

[forprofit]

[Well, they are in a prime place for wild Pokemon. Houndoom's at attention before Archer even asks for it, ready to pounce if need be.]

[redheir]

I'm gonna catch it!

[Silver starts running over that way! Never mind the fact that he doesn't have any Pokéballs yet. Nidoran hops after him loyally.]

[forprofit]

[Sure you will oh wait-] Silver! Don't rush in until you see it first!
