[Even though Petrel just asked where, Cobra’s going to explain how his world works. Hopefully, this is going to be a long ride because he’s not giving the short version.]

A place called Earth, Executive. The people are more or less similar to here, but the world itself functions quite differently. There are multiple things called countries, sssimilar to the regions you have here. But each country, or nation, is controlled by its own government. These countries occasionally go to war with each other, increasing and decreasing the size of their regions. Some are wiped off the map entirely. There’s no Pokémon either. Battles between countries are fought using machines instead.

[He takes a moment to catch his breath. He’s getting to the good part anyway. The part that explains why he could be put to better use by these people.]

Of course, as I’m sssure we all know, your average every day person doesn’t know how to run their life. Politicians, do you even have those there? The people that are chosen to rule don’t always know what to do with their regions. The petty squabbles, territory disputes, all of that is just an annoyance. That’s why in my world, I started an organization to get rid of all that. Conquer the world through superior power and intimidation. Imagine how delighted I was to find out that a ssssomewhat similar organization existed in this world.

[Somewhat being the key word. He’s still not sure what Team Rocket’s endgame is whether it be world domination or something else entirely.]
