"You say what? Team Rocket bye-bye a go-go? Broken up it is says you? Oh, no! Should I do what now on from, me? ... OK. I my country go home. Make Team Rocket I will. Good-bye! So long!"
>"Oh! I am member of Team Rocket, yes! Long ago Team Rocket bye-bye a go-go, so I return my country and make Team Rocket! So I vowed! But go home and not long married I am. Oh! Happiness is family!

The closest thing we have to an age for them is Max from the anime whose look seems to be based on that class (in Hoenn) and is 7 year old. So the gap between HGSS and BW would be at least 8 years
