"Don't be silly, that's backwards! We joined the circus, met each other, then got on the boat. And we're not just any circus, we're the Roaming Raticates. See the 'R?'" She points at her chest. "The big guy over there's our strongman, the one with the creepy hat and mask is our mysterious oracle, and I'm a class A acrobatic juggler. There's a few more of us in town, each one with their own zany and unique talent," Zany yes, talented remains to be seenshe thinks. "But while we humans enjoy our share of the theatrics, the show's really about the local pokemon."
She calmly introduces herself to the snoozing cat under the stool, so long as it's not hostile she starts giving it ear skritchies. "Most tamed pokemon don't get the excitement and fun they deserve. We understand: you've got jobs to do and can't just go off adventuring like the youngsters do. And as such, your pokemon never really reaches her full potential. Luckily for them, we're here to help.
"For a small fee, we'll take your pokemon under our wing and put em to the test, kind of like a summer camp. We take them cross country with us and teach them all the tricks we know, grooming them to be the very best showman we can make them, all while giving them the challenge and freedom they crave. They'll participate in our shows, and as their talents grow, so will their fame. Everyone will know how stellar and exceptional your pokemon is, and we'll be sure to let them know about the owner of such a fine specimen. And in a few weeks when we circle back around to home, they'll put on their best performance ever just to show how far they've come. You'd get in for free, of course, for being the trainer of one of the stars.
"Finally, we return your happy pokemon to you, it's adventure and wanderlust sated, and with a brand new set of amazing tricks to show your friends and family. Everyone in Kanto participates and they all love us. It's good for the pokemon, it's good for you, it's good for us, it's great for everyone!"
If the kitty's still friendly, Minnie tries to pick her up. "So whadya say, you think your cute little friend here's got what it takes to be famous?"
