Celadon City has a 6.8% unemployment rate 

He's anime 10 which means he could be anywhere from 10 to 8000 years old and a vampire lord in actuality.

It's the Evee on that boy's head conducting the direct survey

Exactly, that's why the bureau hired him, so they don't have to pay him.

being an Enumerator for the Bureau of Labor Statistics is not a job, it's a Lifestyle.

It's community service hours for school

Direct Survey! Direct Survey! Direct Survey!

lmao I'm glad I'm not the only one

Omg I say it with him every time

i said "direct survey" when he asked a different question at 9:29

Or Blue's Clues!! Maaaiiil!! My favorite time truly! Thanks enumerator!

Idk that also sounds like Grimsley of the Elite Four behavior

I think he might be from the former fighting gym in Saffron City so shouldn't count towards the unemployment of Celadon.

For real. Team Rocket are classless if they have people barefoot in their establishment.

@@BJGvideos grimsley is both in the elite four and unemployed. That's how unemployed-coded he is

@@anonymous71207 Grimsley is so unemployed that his spare employment had to be given to Larry over in Paldea. The balance is maintained.

Yes, but does she live there?

I was thinking that too, or at least she was advertising, not shopping.

I also assumed she made some of the handmade stuff. Maybe not a job but maybe a hobby?

I assumed she was employed as a crier for the department store

@@zapadap1328yeah I also assumed her job was just to tell people about the accessories at the department store

Well whether it’s Rocket grunts or Silph Co. employees they’re all employed

@@jonathanpayne4772 But do the team rocket members live in Saffron city?

​@@Khronogi it's pretty safe to assume so. Most criminals live at least near the cities they commit their crimes in.

They have a headquarters there so yes some definitely do

​@@FrogboyaidanTheir headquarter is in Celadon so those that invaded Silph Co. might be from Celadon (they also leave after invasion ends)

Dont worry, he was looking for "Exclusively strong trainers"

@@figo5862 well he sure changed his tune since the last time I checked in on him

@@flinnjaHe didn’t want to get on any lists

Based

At least he wasn't looking at their bathrooms(based if so!)

They're also an organized syndicate with legitimate businesses in addition to crime.

Is this a Japanese law?

@@PikaFanboy US law, which is what Austin uses Basically there's a field to report "other income" to the IRS

But would they count as actual citizens of whatever city they are basing their operations out of?

​@@catflower_queen7497why would they not count as citizens? Being a criminal doesn't change that.

Does that make him "Any Australian"?

@bennyk384 aaaaaayyyyyy

I felt the same way, she gave me salesperson/marketer vibes

Yeah I interpreted her as advertising that the products she makes are sold at the department store.

I actually tried to do it for fun in W2 and gave up incredibly fast. Not only are there tons of office buildings full of NPCs (many of those buildings having multiple floors), zubat infested sewers which are never completely accessible thanks to the changing water level between seasons, forcing you to change your DS's date to reach all the NPCs (on top of using dozens of repels to avoid getting attacked by a bat every 5 steps), but there's also huge waves of salary men and women speed walking through the main streets, none of whom can be stopped or talked to. They'll just speed right by you with a "sorry!" if you get in front of em cuz they're rushing to get to work. There's no end to them, and they make the total population of this city uncountable, but it's easily in the hundreds. But that also means the employment rate is likely incredibly high, which makes sense since it's a huge fast paced capitol. Most of the population is probably young people who've moved there for work, along with a few retired Castelians and some kids. I'd assume most of the people not originally from Castelia move back to their home town (or a different town) after retirement, or even after having kids for the sake of the kids growing up in a more peaceful environment. This also points to a very high-stress work culture and lifestyle in Castelia city, but going into that could be a whole separate essay. I'm also not sure which of the people on the docks or in the cruise ships would count towards the total population, since you can't really tell which ones are tourists and which are living in Castelia. I also believe you can't actually talk to all the passengers each trip because of a time limit, and the trainers change with each trip too, though I might be misremembering this one. TLDR: It's impossible to get an even close to accurate percentage on the employment rate of Castelia city, but it'd be fun to watch someone go insane as they try to count the endless waves of people. Maybe he could count the NPCs on screen per second and then multiply that by the typical 9 to 5 or something, though I bet many of the employed Castelians work even longer hours or work nights.

@bingus759 You are a mad lad for even attempting it! Sounds like it went about how I expected though LOL!

@@Xanthelei Nah I was just bored and had free time lol, though I wanna attempt it again now just to see how crazy the numbers get!

Sincerely: thank you for your service.

What is a Point in Time count?

@NoriMori1992 an annual direct survey of all individuals experiencing homelessness on a particular night. The purpose is to provide a snapshot of the homelessness situation in the community. We (and many, many wonderful volunteers) go out and talk to every unsheltered person we can. Like Austin occasionally has to make a guess, we occasionally estimate if we cannot speak with the person (ex, language barrier or sleeping). The shelters also provide us with their records for the same night so we can get a thorough picture.

@damienvalentine5043 it's my pleasure, I love my job! I'm behind the scenes fiddling with numbers most of the time, so I love the Point in Time Count when I can go out and hear people's stories all day.

@@Pixel-Lucas Oh neat. Thanks for the info!

Maybe because Arbok can learn dig, so the enumerator can easily escape dangerous situations

I was half-expecting a Mewtwo or some crazy legendary with wild implications, lol

It’s actually like $65, yen is kinda weak against USD. The real weird thing is a solid gold nugget only sells for half that. Using current gold prices that’s like half a gram of gold.

It straight up has apples in it!

that + this restaurant is patently a japanese one (the tanzaku paper presumably indicating menu items is the strongest tell for it)

There's also a building next to the casino that gives prizes (you get Porygon there!) This is more nitpicky, but there's a house to the west I'd count as part of Celadon city, and maaayybe a couple characters in the surrounding routes

He probably steals catalytic converters or something

I am actually more convinced the woman is actually an advertiser for the department store because of the first sentence.

Losing twice at a slot machine requires like $2, I don't think he needs a job to meet that bar

@@Sandmann629 I'm pretty sure gambling addicts tend to spend more than that.

He could be gambling away an inheritance or something

I also yell at the screen like a child watching Dora the explorer whenever he asks that

Keep it up, and I will also

That’s really funny I just started playing burnout paradise which uses that as a theme song

​@@any_austin Burnout Paradise is awesome. I have it on my Nintendo Switch. I first played it on PS3 back in the day which was really cool because you were able to listen to music you had saved on your PS3 in the game. Unfortunately you can't do that on the Switch so you're stuck listening to the same set tracks.

So you're that guy who hangs out around the grass gym and talks about how it's full of beautiful women? Though now he talks about strong trainers which in that world would probably be the same thing~

the grass IS green....

​@@any_austinoh damn, I love that game! Me and my brother used to play it on our ps3 and I just bought it for him on switch!

the future she sees must be so full of colours, I bet! strange that the colours are all that she sees, though... no person, no Pokémon, just the colours...

I thought exactly the same thing 😂

If my girlfriend was Eevee, I'd definitely give her a water stone. For compatibility

Hey guys! Did you know that in terms of .....

oh no

I mean‚ that's still better than a Shellder

words i never thought i'd say, but I'm happy to be proven wrong

ikr it's so satisfying haha

With how quickly people and things change nowadays, it's not surprising things only a few years old seem to have gone on forever.

It's still there in Let's Go I'm pretty sure. I think he gives a tm or something.

Yeah, I believe in this small RU-vidr. He can get views someday.

He's already at 9/11 views he's certainly blowing up

Did you even check the sub count before commenting? Or do you just comment this on every video you get suggested with less than 100 views

@@Joseph_D_Mama I believe this is what you call "a meme comment", not a serious inquiry.

@@TheBreadPirate shittt, I’m pretty gullible so I’m guessing you’re right lol. Comment retracted

The let’s go games fit into gen 7 though

Finally, a Palworld reference that's actually funny

LMAO
