Old man (Kanto)/Role/Generations II and IV

He reappears in the Generation II games and saying that he needs someone to talk with, then asks the player if they believe that he was once an expert at catching.

In the Western versions, he starts by saying that he is wired from a double shot of espresso. In the Japanese versions, he instead starts by letting out a hiccup (Japanese: 「ひっく⋯⋯」) and requests the player to wait so that they listen to what he has to say.
