Design flaw in the silph co building

[Greninjaman]

I was just thinking about this: how does the president leave his office if the only way out of the office, the teleporter, is broken? The person, as well as anyone there, are screwed.

there's a secret switch behind the bookcase that opens up a ladder. take it all the way down and you will enter a secret underground lab where you can encounter Silph co.'s black project: Mewthree

Perhaps he pages Sabrina to come and rescue him.

....on that note, why didn't she do anything when Team Rocket attacked? She could have wiped out the whole occupation in one fell swoop. Best I can figure is she must have foreseen that Red was capable of handling it and that he needed to for the sake of his growth as a trainer, but something about that seems a little off. Oh well, I guess that's a discussion for another thread.

I mean perhaps there is an emergency exit for those instances.

Why are you assuming that no one in that room had a key? What do you mean by a "broken teleporter"?

Like the teleporter loses power and stops working.

The room was locked and the teleporter was outside. I always assumed that Giovanni locked the door; the building wasn't supposed to be a maze under regular circumstances.

It's an early Gameboy JRPG from the 90's. Dungeon building layouts aren't supposed to make sense.

I'm actually wondering why they even keep teleporters in the Silph Co. building and those spinning tiles in the Rocket hideout.

He's talking about how to get out of the top floor from the office.

Even with the office unlocked, there's no stairway leading into the office-the only way there is the teleporter.

 

[Silktree]

Okay, so this is a hypothetical scenario. Then, hypothetically speaking, teleporters don't get broken. Or if they do, there's phone to ask for help just like for elevators.

scenario: gas leak in the head office

this is what plays on the phone after they call for help

You can even sing along!

I think this is why the MST3K mantra exists...
