It's interesting how the quality of Pokemon's villains is in inverse proportion to the amount of dialogue they have.
Giovanni was a compelling villain because he was simple. He's a crime boss. He wants to treat Pokemon badly for financial gain. Simple, straightforward, and your conflict with him is primarily because he is directly in your way at different points of your journey.
Giovanni's Dialogue in Pokemon Red/Blue/Yellow? 250 Words
Maxie and Archie started the trend of ham-fisted philosophy and are almost charmingly stupid in how they don't understand the danger they're about to unleash until it's too late and you get to feel smug about it.
Maxie and Archie's dialogue in their respective games? About 800 words.
Lusamine is about as "middle ground" as you can get, at least having a mostly personal story without any ham-fisted pretenses to idealism. She's just a controlling mother with empty nest syndrome, and that works. She'd be more interesting if the player was playing AS Lillie or Gladion, but whatever.
Lusamine's Dialogue in Sun/Moon? 1,300 words.
Lysandre is where shit gets obnoxious. He doesn't even know what he's trying to do. Nobody in Team Flare knows. Their motivations shift constantly almost trying to emulate Team Rocket and Team Magma simultaneously.
Lysandre's Dialogue in Pokemon X/Y? 1600 Words
Ghetsis is arguably one of the worst, because most of what he says ends up being a complete and total lie and he's just a Saturday Morning Cartoon villain because Game Freak was afraid players might actually start questioning the ethics of Pokemon battling.
Ghetsis' Dialogue in Pokemon Black/White? 1800 Words
Cyrus is the single most Black and White, evil for evil's sake villain in the entire series. He's the kind of character people imagine Giovanni to be because the mafia's pursuit of money and riches apparently isn't noble and obtuse enough to be considered a motivation. Cyrus waxes poetic about the world being terrible, but everything he says just flat out isn't true and not even in the misguided way like Maxie or Archie. He's just out of his mind being cruel for cruelty's sake.
Cyrus' Dialogue in Pokemon Platinum? 1900 Words
N is even worse because he waxes poetic about his ideals regarding ethics in Pokemon Battling, but it's an ideological dead end because the game never once challenges the player to consider what he's saying and contrives a reason for all his goals to fail, and his ideals are built off a faulty premise that Game Freak only entertains out of the illusion of a deeper story that ultimately reassures the player that they're already doing the right thing. Pulling the same con they did with Ghetsis but with even more dialogue and more interruptions and more wasting the player's time on a premise that you were never expected to take seriously. Game only wrote N's story because they were salty about PETA trolling for attention.
N's Dialogue in Pokemon Black and White? 2700 Words, oh my god somebody get a ballgag for this kid!
The lesson here kids is "Brevity is the soul of wit."

also sidenote I can't BELIEVE they actually gave Razer the hood, the theorizing on whether or not he'd have a hood as a Blue Lantern (because of his civilian outfit) back in the day was wild

After watching this show for a month and a half, I think I can safely say this is the takeaway from it.

My friend Merry asked me to draw this while we were playing through AI the Somnium Files. And I finally found some time after working six days straight at work.
