★4 [Video - Action for Violet]
[A mareep is sitting on the ground in the grassy area just south of Violet, patiently wagging her tail. America's voice over the feed is loud and excited as ever.]
Alright so I know some of y'all aren't from earth so I guess it's alright if you don't know but today is the Fourth of July ay-kay-ay the number one best day of the year, 'cause today's when we celebrate freedom an' liberty and justice and basically all the things that make America great, like corn on the cob and barbecue bacon cheeseburgers. And it's also my two hundred twenty-fifth, birthday, which is a pretty sweet number, 'cause that's bi-and-a-quarter-centennial. So that's why Mary an'I are gonna put on a little show for you.
[The mareep gets to her feet on hearing her name, her tail wagging now in earnest.] Alright let's show 'em, Mary.
[From behind the 'gear, America tosses an oran berry into the air, high above Mary's head. She watches it excitedly, letting loose a triumphant thundershock when it's directly overhead. The berry explodes fantastically, sending juice and little berry bits flying in all directions. America quickly repeats the maneuver with a tamato berry, and then a sitrus, all of which explode wonderfully into colorful fruity chunks. When it's finished America turns the camera back on himself with a thumbs-up and a wink. There's a few stray drops of berry juice on his face.]
I didn't think they had any fireworks at the PokeMart so I figured this is the next best thing. Whaddaya think? Pretty awesome right?

Well see there's this little thing I like to call democracy; free and fair elections, representative government, checks and balances, divisions of power, no taxation without representation, of the people, by the people, and for the people.
Which is what the fireworks are all about.
[Video] Wow I just realized the huge culture difference between these two

[And Liberty squawks excitedly when his name is mentioned!]
[Video]
What are you even talking about? [He gets liberty and justice but it's the way America is saying it that's confusing him.] Are you reciting a poem or something?
[Video]
It's the Pledge of Allegiance.
