I can't think of a better way to phrase this, but Gordon is glad that Albert is here to beat science into the Pokemon world. Because no one else seems to be interested in making an awesome antiStun Spore gasmask or trying to solve the mystery of Kricketune's mustache. And things like that are going to be helpful with combating the stuff here. Okay, maybe not the mustache, but still.

Coupled with the fact that he's a familiar face who's already used to working with Gordon and can at least deal with his eccentricities, he hopes Albert doesn't disappear any time soon.
