[The video feed comes on and shows one thing:]

[The holder is one Roy Mustang. A close look at the background will show that he's currently in Goldenrod City.]

Well, that's it. I've got all eight badges of Johto. All done in under a year, too. Who's willing to bet that that's a record? I know I'm willing to bet it is.

So, now it looks like I either get to just hang around until the Pokémon League begins accepting challengers, or go for the badges of Kanto. I suppose I have some time to think about it.

Hey, Hughes! How about joining me for a drink to celebrate my achievement? My treat!

It'll be two years in August. I'm hoping to be done by then though. I've just got two more badges to go.

Two years, huh? You must have stumbled upon quite the distractions.

[Larry just laughs awkwardly.]

Yeeeah...like you wouldn't believe. Goldenrod is the worst distraction trap.

Ha! Believe me, I know what you mean. When you have a city that's twice the size of everything else in the area, everything just tends to gravitate there.

Yeah! I was doing my badge stuff, went there for the Halloween party, and before I knew it, a few months had passed again. I've managed to get back on the road since then, though.

To be fair, it's not exactly easy to travel during the winter here. I had to settle down, too.

Nnnope. I learned that the hard way my first year here.

I heard about that. Something about thirty feet of snow in three days?

Yep, that's it. Try getting through that without a Fire Pokemon. All I had was my Onix to plow through it.

...Funny that you should mention fire. That's something of a specialty of mine, you see.

Oh. Talk about coincidence. I just catch whatever. I have a bit of every type.

Yes, that does seem to be the common trend around here.

Makes it easier to counter different types.

Speaking of that...how do you even do that then? Since you mainly have one type.

I never said that I had exclusively one type, now, did I?

[There's a slight pause, then Larry laughs.]

Okay, you got me there. I guess when you said you specialized in Fire, I instantly thought of the gym leaders here.

Understandable. It wouldn't be inaccurate to call them specializations, after all. They're just exclusive specializations.
