Per TRS, Rated M For Manly is about manly works, not specific characters


** You actually get to talk to Chaz a few times after winning higher-ranked contests. Said trainer considers his Machoke's strength its ''cuteness'' and shies away from entering the [[RatedMForManly Machoke]] in the toughness contest. That is, until CharacterDevelopment sets in and eventually trains with [[RatedMForManly Gym Leader Brawly]] for the contest.

* A female Cool Trainer on Route 111, before she challenges you, says that your Pokemon look like serious actors and that she wants to ask you "for an engagement", which makes it sound like she's proposing to you. It's made even funnier if you're playing as a girl, but in Emerald after you beat her, she only mentions wanting to be friends with more strong trainers like you. Still funny though. This is probably why they changed her dialogue to "Could I ask you for a battle?" in ''Omega Ruby'' and ''Alpha Sapphire''.

* There's an Ace Trainer in Rustboro City who gives you a Float Stone, and item that halves the holder's weight. If you go to a different floor and come back, you'll find the Ace Trainer is gone... and there's a [[BigFun Hiker]] where he was standing. Talk to him, and he says "[[NoOntologicalInertia I seem to have put on a lot of weight lately.]]" Yes, apparently the Float Stone works for humans too...

*** Even funnier is that the fee is only 50 Pokedollars, a quarter of the cost of one Pokéball. Grunt pay must be really bad if even that's too much.

* You know the standard YES/NO means of answering questions in Pokemon? In this game, it extends to asking ''where you're from''. Saying yes will result in the man saying that he's never heard of Yes Town. Selecting no causes the man to say that you've had to have come from somewhere (and then guessing that you were born at the bottom of the sea).
