I suggest you all watch what happens next.

[Cobra Commander has his Gear propped up on a table. He’s standing in front of it, and behind him is a homemade banner, a blue sheet with a crude drawing of the insignia on his outfit.]

For those of you who don’t know who I am, I am Cobra Commander! For those of you who do know, I have no doubt you are reacting in your usual manner. Preparing to laugh at me or better yet, ignore me completely. Well that sssstops right now!

If my demands are not met by tomorrow afternoon, I will carry out more attacks like today’s! Those demands are as follows: 1 million in unmarked bills and the HM for Fly left in a brown bag on the roof of the Goldenrod Department Store, the immediate evacuation of Cianwood City and the creation of a legal document declaring me sole owner of ssssaid city, the immediate release of any Team Rocket members currently held in prison, and, I’m forgetting something, what was it? Oh yes, to be declared absolute ruler of Johto!

As I sssaid earlier, if these demands are not met, there will be more attacks like the one currently in progress. For those not in Violet City, allow me to explain. As we sssspeak, the Pokémon Academy is being flooded with deadly poison gas! And there’s nothing any of you can do to sssstop it! I’ll remind you again, if my demands are not met within the next 24 hours, then you all can expect more attacks in the weeks and months to come!

[The remainder of the feed is just Cobra Commander cackling. It’s a seemingly never ending broadcast of AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA until it finally ends.]

[Malik's initial impressions are confirmed. The man lacks subtlety. Which in Malik's book means he's a fool and doomed to failure, but he's also showy and therefore makes for a useful diversion.

So he'll appear on the feed to smile and offer encouragement.]

Yes, I'll be watching this with interest. Your particular target was a nice touch!

It was the only sssensible target. Small enough to be compromised by a ssssingle individual, but prominent enough to get everyone's attention. The fact that it's full of children also helped.

Like I told you, I have plenty of experience when it comes to things like thissss.

[Malik just smirks harder.]

Oh, I never doubted. This was just proof.

--incidentally, are you still interested in my Grimer? Or does your new master weapon suffice?

I'm always interested in new weapons. Why? Planning to sssell it?

To breed it. So I'd have several to offer.

Asking for that HM was smart of you. Quick transportation would make this job much easier.

I hope the good people of Johto comply!

[If they do, he so wants to use it.]

I don't expect them to. Not yet, but eventually, they'll have no choice but to meet my demands!

Patience does prevail, in many cases.

....when that day arrives, I'll exchange some Grimers for use of your HM. They're infinite, correct?

Correct. I've used the one HM in my possession multiple times and it hasn't run out of uses yet.

Then it's a deal?

[Malik doesn't seem aware of his own presumptuousness. This man has something he wants, and vice versa, at no actual cost to Malik - he's got no use for a clutch of Grimers. The results seem obvious.]

Yesssss, we have a deal.

[As far as Cobra's concerned, he's the clear winner here. Free weapons in exchange for use of an HM? He's practically getting Grimers for free.]

[So much smirking.]

I thought we might.
