Don't underestimate a super pilot

[There is a giant robot in Vermillion.

And also in Cerulean.

And Cinnabar.

There is a giant robot every-freaking-where, and if you're particularly unlucky it might land very, very close to you.

You don't need to worry, though. Now more than any other time, Captain Ash knows what he's doing.]

I need a crew.

[Ash is all business today, sitting in this glorious chair as if he's never left it. ...Hang on, that doesn't look like a hotel room or even a Pokémon Center. Where the hell is he? And why is he knees-deep in Goomies?]

One with opposable thumbs if possible, but at this point I'm not picky. Come to Goldenrod if you're interested; barring blindness, you can't miss the ship.

[No, really, missing this great big thing in the waters near Goldenrod would be kinda hard. Just don't step on the tiny dragons on your way in.]
