Infiltrate the Rocket Hideout

The hideout is here, of all places?

According to the machine, yeah.

I wonder if Silver's here already...

He might've already infiltrated the hideout.

I told him what we know. Let's let him decide how he wants to go about it.

Mwahahaha! We've been waiting for you.

I must say, I'm a bit surprised you barged in here all on your own.

... ... ...

Are you brave or just reckless? I'll put that to the test.

You shall face Giovanni, the greatest Trainer!

Ha! That was a truly intense fight! You have won!

I have little choice, it seems. I will relinquish Pasio for now.

But Team Rocket will never fall!

Never forget that all Pokémon exist for Team Rocket!

You're not fooling anyone. Show's over.

What?!

You're Petrel, the Team Rocket executive. Spill it, where's Giovanni?

Heh heh heh...

Wahahaha! I guess my cover is blown!

My disguise was perfect! You get props for seeing through it.

But my losing to you won't change a thing!

That door is locked shut!

You can try all you like, but it won't open unless I say the password. It only reacts to my voice!

Tsk!

Shhh, Honchkrow. Don't say the password this time, OK?

If you keep quiet, I'll give you a shiny toy ring!

Oh, I forgot, I guess you only liked shiny things when you were still a Murkrow, huh.

Look at you now, all big and strong... It's makin' me tear up!

Face it, kid... You've hit a dead end. You're not going anywhere!

Mwahahaha! Hail Giovanni!

Oops! Aw, man! I got so excited, I accidentally shouted out the password!

You really don't know when to stop talking.

No turnin' back now! I'll stop you before you get to the boss, no matter what it takes!

In the end, you're still resorting to outnumbering your opponent? This is why I hate you guys.

But...if I waste my time on this, Lance and the others might get to Giovanni first.

Fwahahaha!

Wh-where's that laugh coming from?

Gah!

How long have you been here?!

Silver! We're here to help. You can go on ahead!

My father and I will take care of everyone here! Let's help each other out!

I don't need help from anyone! Stop interfering!

You're the one who's going to take down Giovanni, aren't you? Do you really have the time to waste here?

... ... ...

Hmph... Fine!

OK, prepare yourselves!

What?! This can't be!

Oh, wait. I dropped the Giovanni disguise already, didn't I.

Darn. I guess the best I can do is stop the two of you, then!

Heh. You think we'll just let you do that?

Prepare to fall victim to our intricate style and sinister techniques! Our bond as a family will prevail!

We've got you cornered now.

Why don't you put an end to this evil nonsense of forcing Pokémon to Dynamax.

Heh. Cornered, you say?

I'm afraid you're just a tad too late for that line.

What?!

Giovanni...

Welcome to my hideout, Champion.
