4th Gen The Rockets have tripled in numbers!

[Opposite Day]

Well, I recently started to listen to my radio on HG for whatever reason, and I found this show called "The top three of every town!" or something like that. What made this rather interesting was that eventually, it got to a town once known as "Cinnabar", and the show went a little something like this:

"The Top Three of Cinnabar!
Number Three is... Ta-Da!
The Volcano! After the eruption, not much is left,
barring the still open crater of the volcano!
Number Two is...
...
...
..Huh?
...
There appears to be no number one as well!"

I laughed really loudly.

After you get dressed up in that silly Grunt costume, if you try talking to the townspeople, most of them have negative reactions ("Oh my gosh! Team Rocket! Get away from me!" "You...you joined Team Rocket? Why?"), which I found a little hurtful; you're going to be the savior of Johto, after all. But if you go to the Pokémon Center and talk to a little girl there, she'll say something along the lines of, "Hey, you're that big sis/big brother from earlier, aren't you? I thought so. You must have a good reason for being dressed like that, I know it."

From out of the mouths of babes. Or at least a girl's sprite half my size on the screen. Those NPCs ought to be ashamed.

There was also a bit of dialogue up at the Goldenrod Gym. In front of the door is a Grunt blocking the way, as well as one of the trainers trying to get out. If you talk to them, the trainer will say, "Go on, get out of my way! You're in over your head if you think the members of the Goldenrod Gym are just going to stand by and let Team Rocket take over the town!" Made me happy to know that at least the Gym was trying to serve its purpose, if a lot slower then the player (beat the Tower in under twenty minutes). That wasn't in the original game, and that actually bothered me, considering the Gym is practically ten pixels away from the entrance to the Radio Tower.
