REQUESTED REWARD: A reusable TM? Something for Ghosts or Psychics preferable. Or just cash is fine, he's not really trying very hard for a reward here.
JUSTIFY THE REWARD: Honestly Tyler's just here to cause a ruckus.
He's going to be doing some deep fucking research into Solf J. Kimbley's personal missions in the past, having heard of the ex-Rocket's ex-plosive ex-ploits, and decided that maybe a little mimicry might put the fear of Arceus Team Rocket in people, just a little bit more.
He's doing this plainclothes (even if it's still a casual black jeans and shirt outfit) and in the evening when the night scene is pumping, so the higher security presence he's noticed on prior missions doesn't ping him as suspicious when he very casually saunters down a dark alley in Olivine City and--
--makes his Forretress and Solrock explode.
They're in two separate places, of course, and he's being as careful about it as he can in plainclothes: his Hypno is out the whole time, using his psychic abilities to make sure people don't especially notice Tyler, until he can successfully find an empty alleyway, and pull his Forretress out to use Self-Destruct. As soon as his Forretress explodes, preferably in an alleyway behind a line of restaurants (after putting on a gas mask, and protecting himself using his Hypno's Reflect), he's recalling it to its Pokeball and teleporting with his Hypno to the other side of town, behind the dock's cargo holds, and explode an ocean-facing wall, and hopefully a cargo container or two. After he recalls his Solrock, he'll be teleporting to Ecruteak City, directly into his girlfriend's back yard, and having a shower.
After both Pokemon explode, in the moment before he leaves, Tyler will make sure to throw down a Team Rocket business card. Theoretically the two detonations and his escape would all occur in less than five minutes, but he's willing to spend multiple hours in Olivine relaxing and being totally relaxed and fine and not suspicious at all (which he is good at) until the opportune moment presents itself. Of note is that he's deliberately avoiding going near the Gym at any point, so he doesn't fuck up Steve P.'s later mission by proxy.
lets fuck shit up
