Hilbert and Hilda discuss Slowpoke tails.

Azalea Town, Johto
Hilbert: You ever hear about how there were once criminals harvesting Slowpoke tails here?
Hilda: Ugh, I don't think I could ever eat Slowpoke tail, no matter how tasty they may be.
Hilbert: I'd be open to trying it, only if I knew for sure that they were ethically sourced. You know? Like tails that naturally fell off the Slowpokes, not harvested obviously. Have you heard of the Smoke-Poke Tail curry they make in the Galar region? When we head over there we have to try some!
Hilda: Even if it's completely painless for the Slowpoke, I just can't fathom the first person who ate a Slowpoke tail. I mean, who looks at a fallen-off body part of a Pokémon and thinks to eat it?
Hilbert: Fair point, but consider this, Casteliacones. What if the first Casteliacone was actually a Vanillite?
Hilda: Don't ruin Casteliacones for me! You know how much I love them!

Hammerlocke Hills, Galar
Hilda: Alright! Campsite is all set up! Who knew you could set up a tent, Hilbert!
Hilbert: Wow, thanks Hilda. I'm really not that useless...
Hilda: Sorry, sorry! Anyway, what's for dinner?
Hilbert: Well, do you remember what I said back in Azalea Town in Johto?
Hilda: Oh no, I feel like I'm gonna regret apologising to you.
Hilbert: I bought some Smoke-Poke Tails to make curry!
Hilda (walking away): You know what, I'm just gonna find some berries to eat, bye!
Hilbert: Wait! Hilda! I'll make a serving without the tails for you!

Notes: I still can't believe eating Pokémon in the Pokémon universe is canon...
