[he reaches out a hand gently towards inkay when it floats over.]
Did you hurt any of the other legendaries you encountered?

I don't hurt legendaries, they hurt me!
[His voice turns slightly shrill.]
Do you have any idea how many times I've been stepped on, knocked through time, set on fire, frozen solid or buried under rocks?
'Cause I don't, I've lost track.

I hope you understand that if that happened because you were attempting to capture them, then I have absolutely no sympathy for your plight.

...Thinking about it, I'm as surprised as you are how rarely that's actually the case.
[He rubs the back of his neck.]
I told you already, I have a knack for being in the wrong places at the wrong time.

Then I don't have any sympathy for Rockets.
[he huffs, pulling his legs closer to his chest, watching inkay.]
Like I expect you don't have any sympathy for Aquas.

Pshaw.
[He waves a dismissive hand.]
If I went around ignoring everybody who didn't have sympathy for me I'd hardly talk to anyone.

Did you never go through all that and think... maybe... maybe the universe is telling you to stop what you're doing?!

Well...maybe sometimes.
But maybe the universe also just needs a fall guy. Especially if it's one who falls a lot.

There's no reason why it should be you. Not when it drags you down to such criminal depths at the same time.

Some of us do well in the depths.
You can get that, can't you?

Well, then, maybe....
[Nervous giggle.]

So many people are

Then maybe don't be a Rocket, James! Maybe don't take part in the system that enables the torture and abuse of Pokémon!
Just!
[he makes a strangling motion.]
Be better! The way you
can be
! Team Rocket is just holding you and your friends
back
