Excuse you, why wouldn't I be popular in Pokémon land. My appeal is both universal and unstoppable. You should see what happens when I walk to work, maidens gotta have their tank fighters out in force when I pass by on the street in case they faint from proximity to a legend.

[Wart's gone off to hang out on the sidelines, but he can't help but put his head in his hand. Why couldn't Dave return him to the Pokéball before he started talking. Why must he suffer in this way.]

Also, that's a baseball stadium? I thought it might be, like. A basketball field.

[Yeah no. Wart puts his head in both hands. Even the Pokémon know more about sports than you, Dave.]
