In the 90s they put random English phrases instead of translating.

Nah, that's just not the case for Pokemon. Looked it up and in the Japanese version he says γ€ŒγŸγ‚“γƒ‘γƒ³γ†γ”γγ‚„γ™γγ£γ¦γ„γ„γœγ€or "It's nice that shorts are easy to move in". Same meaning basically, dude just likes shorts in any version.
