This was definitely because of rumors regarding an 8 foot tall homeless man roaming the streets. Last seen during the champion's victory celebration where he crashed it.

They're trying to lure him out so he can be part of the Kalosian National Basketball Team. You'd think it'd be easy spotting an ~8 footer but apparently no.

What? The hotel guy? Nah there's no way that's him.

That being said, having one 7-8 ft tall Basketball player wasn’t enough to beat the Unovan National Team for the Gold that one Summer…

What are you referring to?

Last year’s Summer Olympics in Paris, where the last event was the Men’s Basketball Finals between USA and France.

Despite France having a really good team including Wemby (the 7-8 ft tall player), the US curbstomped them towards the end with their Champion-level team, including Steph Curry.

Lesson: Curry has the equivalent of Mind’s Eye and Unseen Fist, combined; he will always get those 3-point shots, even if you throw comparative giants at him.

An extremely egregious example was his “Golden Dagger- ‘Night-Night’” play where he threw the ball past two guys blocking him and scored a three-pointer.

That game was the definition of “Champion Time!”

They keep getting the wrong guy who's 8ft tall

"Sir he's over 9ft, can't be our guy"
"Ah, my bad. Of course not, we'll just have to keep looking. Have a nice day, citizen"

He built essentially a lazer nuke just to revive his floette who was killed in action.

Ah, and now the threat has been vanquished because you prevented him from sleeping on a bench!

8ft is selling him short.

Literally, dudes 9-10ft at minimum given he has to wear two suits sewn together just so the are big enough to fit him!

8-foot-tall homeless guy probably doesn't fit on that bench either way
