In the core series

Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal

New Bark Town
"…… So this is the famous Elm Pokémon Lab …… What are you staring at?"
Cherrygrove City
  • Before battle
"…… …… …… You got a Pokémon at the Lab. What a waste. A wimp like you. …… …… …… Don't you get what I'm saying? Well, I too, have a good Pokémon. I'll show you what I mean!"
  • Being defeated
"Humph. Are you happy you won?"
  • If the player is defeated
"Humph. That was a waste of time."
  • After the battle
"…… …… …… My name's ???. I'm going to be the world's greatest Pokémon trainer."
Sprout Tower
"… …Humph! He claims to be the Elder but he's weak. It stands to reason. I'd never lose to fools who babble about being nice to Pokémon. I only care about strong Pokémon that can win. I really couldn't care less about weak Pokémon.
Azalea Town
  • Before battle
"…Tell me something. Is it true that Team Rocket has returned? What? You beat them? Hah! Quit lying. You're not joking? Then let's see how good you are."
  • Being defeated
"… Humph! Useless Pokémon! Listen, you. You only won because my Pokémon were weak."
  • After being defeated
"I hate the weak. Pokémon, trainers. It doesn't matter who or what. I'm going to be strong and wipe out the weak. That goes for Team Rocket too. They act big and tough in a group. But get them alone, and they're weak. I hate them all. You stay out of my way. A weakling like you is only a distraction."

Burned Tower

  • Before battle
"…… …… …… …Oh, it's you. You wanted to get stronger, so you came for the legendary Pokémon that's supposed to be here. That's your story, right? Well, that's not going to happen. Because I'm going to get it! I'm going to be the world's greatest trainer, so a legendary Pokémon would be perfect for me. …Well, anyway. I'm getting tired of having a wimp like you always showing up."GS
"…… …… …… …Oh, it's you. I came looking for some legendary Pokémon that they say roosts here. But there's nothing here! Nothing after all the trouble of coming to this dump? No way! It's all your fault!"C
  • Being defeated
"…Humph! This is why I hate battling wimps. There's no challenge in it."
  • After being defeated
"…Aw, whatever. You would never be able to catch a legendary Pokémon anyway."GSC
"Humph! What are you doing falling into a hole? Some genius you are! Serves you right!"C
Olivine City
"… You again? There's no need to panic. I don't bother with wimps like you. Speaking of weaklings, the city's Gym Leader isn't here. Supposedly taking care of a sick Pokémon at the Lighthouse. Humph! Boo-hoo! Just let sick Pokémon go! A Pokémon that can't battle is worthless! Why don't you go train at the Lighthouse? Who knows. It may make you a bit less weak!"
Team Rocket HQ
"… Didn't I tell you that I was going to destroy Team Rocket? …Tell me, who was the guy in the cape who used dragon Pokémon? My Pokémon were no match at all. I don't care that I lost. I can beat him by getting stronger Pokémon. It's what he said that bothers me… He told me that I don't love and trust my Pokémon enough. I'm furious that I lost to a bleeding heart like him. …Humph! I don't have the time for the likes of you!"
Goldenrod Underground
  • Before battle
"Hold it! I saw you, so I tailed you. I don't need you underfoot while I take care of Team Rocket. …Wait a second. You beat me before, didn't you? That was just a fluke. But I repay my debts!"
  • Being defeated
"…Why… Why do I lose? I've assembled the toughest Pokémon. I didn't ease up on the gas. So why do I lose?"
  • After being defeated
"…I don't understand… Is what that Lance guy said true? That I don't treat Pokémon properly? Love… Trust… Are they really what I lack? Are they keeping me from winning? I… I just don't understand. But it's not going to end here. Not now. Not because of this. I won't give up my dream of becoming the world's best Pokémon trainer!"
Victory Road
  • Before battle
"Hold it. …Are you going to take the Pokémon League challenge? …Don't make me laugh. You're so much weaker than I am. I'm not like I was before. I now have the best and strongest Pokémon with me. I'm invincible! <player>! I challenge you!"
  • Being defeated
"…I couldn't win… I gave it everything I had… What you possess, and what I lack… I'm beginning to understand what that dragon master said to me…"
  • After being defeated
"…I haven't given up on becoming the greatest trainer… I'm going to find out why I can't win and become stronger… When I do, I will challenge you. And I'll beat you down with all my power. …Humph! You keep at it until then."
Dragon's Den
  • When first talked to
"… What? <player>? …No, I won't battle you now… My Pokémon aren't ready to beat you. I can't push them too hard now. I have to be disciplined to become the greatest Pokémon trainer…"
  • If talked to again
"… Whew… Learn to stay out of my way…"
Mt. Moon
  • Before battle
"…… …… …… It's been a while, <player>. …Since I lost to you, I thought about what I was lacking with my Pokémon… And we came up with an answer. <player>, now we'll show you!"
  • Being defeated
"…… …… …… I thought I raised my Pokémon to be the best they could be… …But it still wasn't enough…"
  • After being defeated
"…… …… …… …You won, fair and square. I admit it. But this isn't the end. I'm going to be the greatest Pokémon Trainer ever. Because these guys are behind me. …Listen, <player>. One of these days I'm going to prove how good I am by beating you."
Indigo Plateau
  • Before battle
"Hold it. You're going to take the Pokémon League challenge now? That's not going to happen. My super-well trained Pokémon are going to pound you. <player>! I challenge you!"
  • Being defeated
"… OK--I lost…"
  • After being defeated
"…Darn… I still can't win… I… I have to think more about my Pokémon… Humph! Try not to lose!"

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver

New Bark Town
"… So this is the famous Elm Pokémon Lab… …What are you staring at?"
Cherrygrove City
  • Before battle
"… You got a Pokémon at the Lab. What a waste. That's a Pokémon that's too good for a wimp like you. … Don't you get what I'm saying? Well, I too have a good Pokémon. I'll show you what I mean!"
  • First partner Pokémon at critical health
"…Humph! You're doing OK for someone weak."
  • Being defeated
"…Humph! Are you happy you won?"
  • If the player is defeated
"…Humph! That was a waste of time."
  • After the battle
"…Do you want to know who I am? I'm going to be the world's greatest Pokémon Trainer."
"Give it back! That's my Trainer Card! Oh no! You saw my name…"
Sprout Tower
"… …Humph! He calls himself the Elder, but he was no match for me. Sure enough, those who lecture how you should be "nice" to Pokémon… They cannot defeat me. All I care about are strong Pokémon that win every time. The rest of them don't mean anything to me."
Azalea Town
  • Before battle
"…Tell me something. Is it true that Team Rocket has returned? What? You beat them? Hah! Quit lying. Are you serious? Then let's see how good you are."
  • Sending out last Pokémon
"Say, you've got a lot of nerve, coming here…"
  • Last Pokémon at critical health
"That's ridiculous. There's no way I could lose to a wimp like you!"
  • Being defeated
"…Humph! Useless Pokémon! Listen, you. You only won because my Pokémon were weak."
  • If the player is defeated
"…Humph! I knew you were lying."
  • After being defeated
"I hate the weak. Pokémon, Trainers. It doesn't matter who or what. I hate to see them hanging around. That goes for Team Rocket, too. They think they are big and tough as long as they are in a group. But get them alone, and they're weak. I hate them all. You stay out of my way. You won't be an exception if you get in my way."
Burned Tower
  • Before battle
"……………… ……Oh, it's you. You must be here to catch the legendary Pokémon to make yourself look strong. That is only a dream. You see, the legendary Pokémon suits a Trainer like me who has sworn to become the strongest Trainer. A battle with Team Rocket Grunts is just right for you!"
  • Sending out last Pokémon
"Out of desperation, weak people sometimes do OK at fighting back."
  • Last Pokémon at critical health
"Don't you get that I'm going easy on you?"
  • Being defeated
"…Humph! I'm not fighting with another weakling ever again. It's just too much playing around."
  • If the player is defeated
"...Humph! I'm not fighting with another weakling ever again. I don't have time to waste like that."
  • After being defeated
"…Aw, whatever. You would never be able to catch a legendary Pokémon anyway."
Olivine City
"… You again? There's no need to be alert. I don't bother with wimps like you. Speaking of weaklings, the city's Gym Leader isn't here, and is supposedly taking care of a sick Pokémon at the Lighthouse. Humph! Boo-hoo! Just let sick Pokémon go! A Pokémon that can't battle is worthless! Why don't you go train at the Lighthouse? Who knows? It may make you a bit of a better Trainer!"
Team Rocket HQ
"… So you are messing with them again. Humph, you must really like Team Rocket so much. … Tell me, who was the guy in the cape who used Dragon-type Pokémon? My Pokémon were no match at all. I don't care that I lost. I can beat him by getting stronger Pokémon. It's what he said that bothers me… He told me that I don't love and trust my Pokémon enough. I'm furious that I lost to a bleeding heart like him. …Humph! I don't have time for the likes of you!"
Goldenrod Radio Tower
  • Before battling the Team Rocket Grunt
"Hey Team Rocket! Stop going around in groups and troubling people. You cowards! …Huh? Are you <player>? What are you doing here? No way… You think you're strong now that you look like them? That's foolish! You shouldn't wear those things!"
  • After battling the Team Rocket Grunt
"I see. You were trying to be sneaky… Huh! A typical idea of the meek! No matter. I'll let you handle this. I have to defeat the Dragon Tamer… What's his name…? Lance! After that… it will be your turn. Be ready for it!"
Goldenrod Tunnel
  • Before battle
"Hold it! What I told you before was to deceive you. I thought it would let me tail you, and it would lead me to Lance. Well, he never showed up. …No matter. I was planning to beat you after Lance, but since you are here, I will repay my debts!"
  • Sending out last Pokémon
"Hey, hey! Why so serious?"
  • Last Pokémon at critical health
"No way…"
  • Being defeated
"…Why… Why do I lose? I've assembled the toughest Pokémon. I haven't eased up on the gas. So why do I lose?"
  • If the player is defeated
"Humph. This is my real power, wimp. I'll make Team Rocket history. And I'm going to grind that Lance under my heels."
  • After being defeated
"…I don't understand. Is what that Lance guy said true? That I don't treat Pokémon properly? Love… Trust… Are they really what I lack? Are they keeping me from winning? I… I just don't understand. But it's not going to end here. Not now. Not because of this. I won't give up my dream of becoming the world's best Pokémon Trainer!"
Ecruteak City
"How…? How is this possible? How can I lose to mere Kimono Girls…? You were watching me, <player>… Yeah, that's right! I never thought defeating five Kimono Girls would be so hard… I got beaten to a pulp… … You must have come here for the same reason, right? Don't get cocky just because you defeated Team Rocket! These Kimono Girls are insanely strong. Go ahead! See if you can defeat them. But I'm not going back. I don't want to see you win."
Victory Road
  • Before battle
"Hold it. …Are you going to challenge the Pokémon League? Victory Road is at its end, for sure. But did you notice…? You didn't see any real Trainers on the way, did you? Man, they were all spineless! Well, the fact that you have come this far means you're not one of them. But! Your journey ends here! Because… right here, right now… I will crush you!"
  • Sending out last Pokémon
"I see. Seems like it wasn't just luck that's gotten you this far."
  • Last Pokémon at critical health
"Humph! You were too strong…"
  • Being defeated
"…I couldn't win… I gave it everything I had… What you possess and what I lack, I'm beginning to understand what that Dragon Tamer said to me…"
  • If the player is defeated
"…Humph! I knew it. Strength is everything. Nothing else matters."
  • After being defeated
"……………… I haven't given up on becoming the greatest Trainer… I'm going to find out why I can't win and become stronger… When I do, I will challenge you. I'll beat you down with all my power. …Humph! You keep at it until then."
Mt. Moon
  • Before battle
"Hey, <player>! You're here in Kanto, too? Some of the Trainers here are tough, which makes it easy to train my Pokémon! <player>! I know you are strong… But… I can't help but challenge you!"
  • Sending out last Pokémon
"I see. You weren't coming to Kanto just to show off…"
  • Last Pokémon at critical health
"I see you weren't playing around, either…"
  • Being defeated
"Humph! I guess it can't be helped…"
  • If the player is defeated
"Hmm, seems my Pokémon are pretty good."
  • After being defeated
"My training's still not good enough…? My Pokémon are so weak, it makes me frustrated… But I can feel that they are getting better after each battle… ……………… Tch! They're still too weak! I need to give them more training… I know! I should take them to Dragon's Den! See ya, <player>!"
Dragon's Den
"…What? Are you here to make fun of my training? Humph! I took my time coming all the way here, but the Master won't tell me anything, and he's making a big deal out of it... So I decided to train my Pokémon here instead."
"You! Where have you been all this time? Prepare to lose to me this time. I challenge you!"
"Humph! You can't beat me one-on-one, can you?"
"You must be kidding! That embarrassing one in the weird costume for me? No way I can battle with her! <player>! Come to my side! We'll beat Lance together!"
  • After the battle
"<player>... It wasn't supposed to go this way… Anyway, I am not giving up beating you! I'll train my Pokémon and...my own heart, too. I'll come back as the toughest challenge for you!"
  • If talked to again at a different day
“... What? <player>? Yeah, I am training my Pokémon here. You can laugh at me now… But it needs to be done. My Pokémon aren’t ready to beat you. I can’t push them too hard now. I have to be disciplined to become the greatest Pokémon Trainer…”
  • If talked to again
"... Whew... Learn to stay out of the way..."
Indigo Plateau
  • Before battle
"Hold it. You're going to take the Pokémon League challenge now? You'll have to give up on that. My well-trained-beyond-recognition Pokémon are going to pound you. Right now, right here! I challenge you!"
  • Sending out last Pokémon
"Why?! I've still got one left!"
  • Last Pokémon at critical health
"Do you think you've won already?"
  • Being defeated
"… OK. I lost…"
  • If the player is defeated
"… Whew… With my partners, I'm going to be the Champion!"
  • After being defeated
"…Oh, no… I still can't win after all that training… I…I have to believe more in my Pokémon… …No big deal. Sorry to have got in the way. Don't forget to rest your Pokémon before you challenge the Champion!"
Route 22 (event)
"You told me… you were the number one in the world! Are you gonna quit? What are you going to do now?"
"What aspect of you was number one? Gathering so many only to be defeated by a mere child!"
"I don't understand you! You don't make any sense!"
"I don't want to understand you! I will never become someone like you. A coward when you're alone and acting like a tyrant when you're in front of other cowards! I will become strong! I will become a stronger man all by myself! All by myself!"
"…What are you staring at?"

Legendary Adventures - Pure Hearts and Rainbow Wings
  • Oh, Ho-Oh!
"Ho-Oh..."
"You must be that kid Ethan mentioned. <player>, or whatever."
"Ethan and I were in the middle of a battle when the Legendary Pokémon Ho-Oh flew overhead."
"He decided to cut our battle short so he could go off and look for it!"
"You're friends with Ethan, right? Then come with me."
"That fool is definitely in over his head."
  • On the Lookout for Ho-Oh
"*sigh*"
"Hey, don't go spouting nonsense! I'm not your friend. You and I are..."
"Hmph. Never mind."
Nice to meet you!: "Hmph... Sure."
Let's go find Ho-Oh together!: "*sigh*"
"I'm just...dumbfounded. You're like a Psyduck with Cloud Nine, the way you always have your head in the clouds."
"We're talking about a Legendary Pokémon that can soar through the sky to go wherever it wants. Do you understand what that means?"
"How exactly are we supposed to search for it when it could literally be anywhere?!"
"Not only that, but even though it's an artificial island, Pasio is still pretty enormous."
"If you had stopped to think for even a second...you would've realized that we'll never find Ho-Oh if we just wander around aimlessly looking for it."
"Hmph. Finally you're starting to see reason."
"<player>, I know Ethan forced you to come along. Let's just go our separate ways for now."
I won't give up that easily!: "Even so, we can't do much searching if we don't have a plan, now can we?"
Let's come up with a plan to find it!: "How are we supposed to do that? If it were that easy to find a Legendary Pokémon, we wouldn't be in this mess."
"What?"
"H-hey! Ethan!"
"Hmph. Does he really think this plan will work?"
"... ... ..."
"... ... ..."
"Fine... I guess I'll come along."
"But if Ethan's wrong about this, I'm never gonna let him live it down!"
  • Seek the Kimono Girl!
"Ethan! Would you mind telling us just who you're looking for already?"
"A Kimono Girl?!"
What's the matter?: "It's not important... Just something that happened in Johto a long time ago."
"Huh?! The Kimono Girl isn't alone. What are you doing here, Lance?"
"Don't worry about me. I can hear you talk just fine from here."
"A Trainer who's pure of heart..."
"... ... ..."
"Actually...I think I'll sit this one out."
"I don't really care about Ho-Oh. I've just been along for the ride this whole time."
"You two can go without me."
"Later."
"The Legendary Pokémon Ho-Oh..."
"Hmph... What's the point? It's not like it's going to appear before me anyway."
"Besides, I've got you."
"And even if I did go...what if my presence keeps Ho-Oh away from the area altogether? *sigh*"
  • Off-screen
"Lance..."
  • Lance and Silver
"What do you want? I'm not in the mood for a battle right now."
"Tsk! If you only came here to rub salt in old wounds, I'm leaving."
"You keep talking like that, people might think you've retired the cape to become a Pokémon Professor."
"... ... ..."
"You think it's that easy for people to change?"
"I'm a Trainer who's done some pretty terrible things. I stole someone's Pokémon, and I treated people like garbage if they got on my nerves."
"And worst of all, my dad is..."
"... ... ..."
"They're not my friends."
"They're rivals, not friends! And that goes for you, too!"
"I haven't forgotten what it felt like when you completely destroyed me in battle."
"I'm going to get stronger here on Pasio! I'm going to become the greatest Trainer in the world!"
"And when I do, I'm coming for you! You'd better be ready!"
  • Off-screen, as "???"
"All right, party's over..."
  • On-screen, as Silver
"Hmph! What're you so happy about?"
"My goal is to be the greatest Trainer in the world."
"If Ho-Oh does decide to show up...maybe I'll just make it my partner by force!"
"I'm not just gonna stand around and watch while one of you idiots gets to join up with Ho-Oh."
"That's the same cry I heard yesterday..."
"H-hey!"
"Hmph! How can they be so casual about this? Don't they realize they're going up against a Legendary Pokémon?"
"Still..."
"If they find it first, I'll be pretty upset..."
"Let's go, <player>! We're going to be the first ones to find Ho-Oh, not them!"
  • The Choices We Make
"We've been climbing for what feels like forever and haven't seen so much as Ho-Oh's shadow."
"But I've heard its cry a few more times since we started, so we must be getting closer."
Let's keep looking. Don't give up!: "Of course. I still have to prove that I'm the greater Trainer."
Maybe Ethan already found it.: "Not a chance. I know Ethan. If he found it already, he would've told us by now."
"That's the kind of guy he is. Believe me, I've spent more time with Ethan than I'd care to admit."
"Speaking of which..."
"you kinda remind me of him."
Really?: "Yeah. Not in terms of appearance or personality. It's more...your eyes."
How so?: "I'd say it's your eyes."
"They're always looking off to the distance, giving off this kinda...gleam. It used to really annoy me whenever I saw eyes like yours."
"But...now I don't really get that way around you or Ethan."
"The old me definitely would've just challenged you to a battle and not thought twice about it."
"Maybe I'm..."
"What was that? It sounded close!"
"Ah!"
"Ho-Oh... It's really here."
"Does that mean I'm...? No, it's because you're here. Right, <player>?"
"Gah! It doesn't matter! That's not important now!"
"Ho-Oh! Now that you've finally revealed yourself, I'm going to make you my partner Pokémon!"
"You want to see how strong I am? Then let the battle begin!"
"Tsk! Who'd be calling me now? This better be important..."
"Huh? Ethan? Actually, this is perfect."
"Hey, Ethan! Guess what we just fou–"
"What?!"
"Hey! Ethan?! Ethan!"
  • Off-screen
"Drat! We need to go help Ethan, <player>..."
  • On-screen
"But Ho-Oh..."
"If I pass up this chance, I might never get a second one..."
"But Ethan..."
  • Off-screen, as "???"
"Go, Sneasel!"
  • As Silver
"You're all pathetic."
"I bet you thought you were so clever, ganging up on them to get the upper hand."
  • On-screen
"If there's one thing I hate more than anything..."
"it's people like you!"
  • A Pure Heart Revealed
"Just don't get in my way, Ethan!"
Wow, Silver! You're a natural leader!: "Of course I am! Who do you think you're talking to?"
"What?!"
"Tch! Quite a crowd she's brought."
"You think like a weakling."
"Relying on superior numbers to win a fight just reveals how weak and pathetic you really are."
"But I'm different!"
"I believe in the power of the Pokémon I've trained! Even if I stand alone against a sea of opponents, I'll fight to the very end!"
"That's the way I battle! Because I'm going to be the greatest Trainer in the world!"
Let's battle them together!/We won't lose!: "You guys..."
"Hmph! Just don't get in my way!"
"That cry!"
"What's it doing here?"
"... ... ..."
"I'm fine right here."
"I don't want to see Ho-Oh become your partner."
"We both know Ho-Oh prefers Trainers who are pure of heart..."
"It'd be one thing if I could make it my partner by proving my strength. But as long as this is Ho-Oh's decision, I've got no chance."
"I'm just...not that kind of Trainer."
"I'm fine."
"Shut up! I said I'm fine!"
"Ho-Oh? Why?"
"Ethan..."
Of course!/C'mon! Ho-Oh is waiting for you!: "<player>..."
"Hmph. You're all too sentimental for your own good. We're talking about a Legendary Pokémon, after all."
"But, if you insist..."
"Listen up, Ho-Oh! My goal is to become the greatest Trainer in the entire world!"
"I don't care if you're a Legendary Pokémon! If you get in my way, I'll leave you behind! Got it?!"
"Heh. Looks like you're just as determined as I am. Good. I like that."
"Together, we'll be the strongest sync pair in the world!"
Legendary Adventures - Father or Foe
  • A Visit from Ghetsis
"Hmph! We had two Legendary Pokémon on our team, but we still tied?"
"... ... ..."
  • The End of an Ambition
  • Off-screen, as "???"
"Well, well. Aren't you working hard today."
  • After appearing, as Silver
"I was a little curious, that's all."
"Ghetsis is the man who was actually pulling the strings behind Team Plasma, right? I'd like to see what he's like."
Who's Ghetsis?: "You seriously tagged along without any idea as to who we're dealing with here?"
"(You gotta be kidding me. This guy was the leader of Team Plasma?)"
"Son?! N is your son?"
"You sure about this?"
  • A Human Heart
"For the former king of Team Plasma, you're pretty indecisive."
"You asked everyone for their opinion because you can't make sense of this situation...and even after all that, you still don't have an answer."
"At least decide for yourself what you want to do!"
"Who knows? But let me tell you something..."
"Don't assume for one second, Nate, that others have had the same upbringing as you."
"Having a guy like that for a father can be rough..."
"Looks like he's made up his mind."
"Wait a second. Are you...crying?"
"I see..."
  • Side by Side
"I have more important things to worry about right now than him..."
"Come on! Hurry up!"
  • And Yet...
  • Before battle
"What are you doing? Just leave him!"
"Hey!"
  • After battle, off-screen
"Hey!"
  • On-screen
"That's enough. Your plan failed."
"Let them go, or else!"
"I think they've stopped coming after us."
"How dare you–"
"Nate...are you crying again?"
"Yeah, you can survive without a father..."
Main Story Villain Arc - Johto - Team Rocket's Revival
  • Resuming Operations
"Today's the day I pay you back for all the times you've beaten me. Come on, Ho-Oh! Don't hold back!"
"It doesn't matter. A loss is a loss."
"Hmph. I'll get you back for this eventually. You'd better be ready when I come back for another rematch."
"Oh, it's you. What's up?"
"Wait, Lance."
"Yeah, I did. What of it?"
"... ... ..."
"I'm not sure."
"Back then, I thought that I could be the strongest Trainer as long as I had the strongest Pokémon."
"But even when I had the strongest Pokémon, there were still people I couldn't beat. That's why I changed."
"I still don't completely understand why I lost back then..."
"But I think I'm starting to get it now."
"At the very least, a strong connection with your Pokémon is a must."
"That said, I hate weak Trainers who think they're big and tough as long as they're in a group."
"Don't sweat it. It's fine."
  • On My Own
"That Togepi looked like it was having a rough time."
"I think it was being forced to Dynamax even though it didn't want to."
"It's Team Rocket, isn't it?"
"They were spying on us earlier."
"... ... ..."
"I'm doing this on my own."
"I'm not a fan of teaming up."
"I don't want to be like Team Rocket. They're just a bunch of weaklings who can't do anything on their own."
  • Infiltrate the Rocket Hideout
"... ... ..."
"You're not fooling anyone. Show's over."
"You're Petrel, the Team Rocket executive. Spill it–where's Giovanni?"
"Tsk!"
"You really don't know when to stop talking."
"In the end, you're still resorting to outnumbering your opponent? This is why I hate you guys."
"But...if I waste my time on this, Lance and the others might get to Giovanni first."
"I don't need help from anyone! Stop interfering!"
"... ... ..."
"Hmph... Fine!"
  • One or Many
"... ... ... Wha–?! The ground is shaking!"
"This hideout is about to collapse!"
"I see you're incapable of doing anything by yourself, as always."
"Those Trainers took out your horde of grunts earlier, so their Pokémon were already tired."
"You think you can talk big after beating an opponent that's already been weakened for you?"
"Big talk for cowards who can't do anything without Giovanni around. Face it–you're just too weak to work alone."
"Even a child like me can see that. Why can't you?"
"Of course. While you all were pretending to be friends, I was busy training."
"I can take care of this all by myself. This is how it should've been from the start."
"We'll settle this once and for all...old man!"
  • As Your Friend
  • In flashback
"No, we're not done yet! We can still–"
"... ... ..."
"Where do you think you're going?!"
  • In My Heart
"What do you want?"
"I already told you... I hate teaming up."
"Hmph."
"... ... ..."
"You don't know what I'm feeling."
"This is MY problem. Leave me alone."
"Wha–?!"
"Even though you can't even tell what's in my heart?"
"Tsk. You're always so persistent."
"Even back in Johto, you kept showing up before me, time and time again... And so many times, I lost to you."
"Because of that, I..."
"You know what? Fine. But only until we get to Giovanni."
"But don't you dare interfere in my battle with him!"
"If you do, I won't hesitate to take you down first."
"I appreciate your advice."
"What do you mean by that?"
"... ... ..."
  • Hearts Aligned
"Hmph. There they go again, coming at us with hordes of weaklings. How annoying."
  • Battle against Evil
"Yeah, I know."
"What?"
"I'll never be like you. I'll surpass you!"
"... ... ..."
"Thanks, Ethan."
"I would've lost if you weren't here. Same goes for everyone else."
"Without you all, I couldn't have gotten this far."
"That's the truth, and I have to accept that as the limit of what I can do."
"Tch. I hate being weak."
"You're right. As I am now, I still can't beat you on my own."
"But we can't afford to lose, because the people of Pasio need us to win."
"So really, this isn't just my battle..."
  • Off-screen
"This is a battle to take down Team Rocket once and for all!"
  • On-screen
"I'm only letting this happen once. Next time, I'll definitely beat you on my own!"
"Let's do this, Ethan. The two of us can take him down!"
  • Endings and Beginnings
"I didn't want to believe that there was still such a huge gap between us... I hate this."
"You think you're getting away?"
"Tsk! Coward!"
"It would be great if it turned out to be that simple."
"I'm done teaming up."
"Next time, I'm going to make sure I've obtained real strength."
"I'll be strong enough to fight my battles on my own."
"So you'd better be ready, Ethan...because I'll be taking you down first."
"What did you expect? We're rivals, aren't we?"

  • New Year, Old Rival
"Lance...what are you doing here?"
"From Ethan and Lyra?"
"Hmm. How nice of them."
"...Wait."
"Can you give these to Ethan and Lyra?"
"I got these from Ho-Oh. Unfortunately I don't have any cards to send."
"But one look at those feathers, and they'll know exactly who sent them."
"Yeah, one's for you. The message is the same for all of them."
""I'm definitely not going to lose to you.""
Solo Event - Town Square Street Fair
  • Holler for Hala!
"Hmph. Child's play."
"We won't lose to anyone!"

"It's our loss. Sneasel, are you OK?"
"Sure. We're going to win this time!"

"I'm just getting started."
  • Rainbow Feathers
"Hmph... Just listen to you all prattle on..."
"Why is everyone from Johto always like this?"
"To me?"
"No... That's not from my Ho-Oh."
  • Traces of Ho-Oh
"Yeah...that's definitely not from my Ho-Oh."
"... ... ..."
"I'll pass."
"The feather that girl had just now... There was something really suspicious about it."
"You can believe her if you want and go search for Ho-Oh. But don't get me involved."
"How did it go, Sneasel?"
"Yes... That's definitely the girl from before."
"What, you're not going to buy something?"
  • Training Mentality
"It seems like you've discovered something as well. Let's compare notes."
  • Off-screen, as "???"
"It certainly looks that way."
  • After appearing, as Silver
"Now tell them where you got that feather."
  • Into the Future
  • Off-screen
"No, that's enough."
  • On-screen
"It looks like those fakes of yours were actually of some use."
"Behold—the real Ho-Oh."
  • Off-screen
"That wasn't like you at all."
  • On-screen
"Was it because of Ho-Oh? Or because you couldn't stand what Team Rocket was doing?"
"You don't need a feather."
"After all, I didn't."

"Good job, Sneasel."
"I'll heal you now. Stay still for a bit."
"... ... ..."
  • In flashback, off-screen
"Speaking of weaklings, the city's Gym Leader isn't here."
"Supposedly they're taking care of a sick Pokémon at the Lighthouse."
"Hmph. Boo-hoo! Just let sick Pokémon go!"
"A Pokémon that can't battle is worthless!"
  • Back to present, on-screen
"It's a pain in the neck for me if he can't battle."
"That's why I can't leave him alone. Especially if he's wounded."
"Sorry to bother you."
"Don't forget to heal your Pokémon too."
"Looks like you're fully recovered."
"Then let's head out for some training. We have to find our next opponent..."
"There. Let's follow them."
"So Morty's here."
"And that's the guy from the Burned Tower..."
  • Eusine's Dream
"Suicune? Isn't it already..."
"Hmph. How kind of you to celebrate someone else's success."
"And one of them is..."
"Yeah..."
"You say you're gonna look for it, but do you have any clue where it could be?"
"Sorry, but I'm not working with you."
"Although...finding Suicune and making it my partner Pokémon wouldn't be so bad."
"You seem very confident. Wouldn't you have a problem if I partnered up with Suicune?"
"Your dream, huh..."
"Does it look like I'd have something like that?"
"I don't have any dreams I'm telling YOU about."
  • The Chase Continues
  • Off-screen
"You all talk big, don't you?"
  • On-screen
"Sure. You can say whatever you want."
"But with a weak mentality like that, no wonder you couldn't catch up to Suicune."
"Sure. Come at me."
"There's nothing more annoying than people who can't do anything unless they're in a group!"
"What's wrong—done already? Just all talk, huh?"
"Yeah, I haven't given up, but..."
"His unwavering persistence in chasing after Suicune has surprised me."
"I guess so..."
"If we're talking about something that you want to happen, no matter what..."
"Then maybe I do have what he calls a dream."
"Aren't you in high spirits."
  • Off-screen
"You're following a dream that'll never come true, and you're right next to someone who already fulfilled that same dream."
  • On-screen
"Haven't you thought of giving up on a dream you can't reach?"
"You don't have a single grudge?"
"... ... ..."
"Really?"
  • Your Turn
"Even Suicune should know who's been following it this whole time."
"It's looking at you, and only you."
"You've been talking about it so much. Go on and make your dream come true."
"Didn't expect you'd actually make it happen."
"You asked me before what my dream is, didn't you?"
"There're some people I need to defeat."
"I'm gonna surpass them and become the world's strongest Trainer..."
"I think that's my dream."
"And I'll do it together with my Pokémon."
"Heh, no need to tell me!"
"Is this...a Pokémon Egg?"
"All right, I'll take it off your hands."
"No matter what Pokémon it is, I'll train it to be strong."
"Have you had enough?"
"You weaklings shouldn't be ganging up and bothering people."
"You're too late. There's nothing left for you."
"I'm gonna... No, WE'RE gonna get even stronger than we are now."
"Every moment, I'll be running at full speed. I'll definitely catch up to you."
"You better prepare yourself."

"What's that supposed to mean?"
"Oh?"
"Hmph. That has nothing to do with me."
"So basically...you want to make me a Neo Champion?"
"Well, aren't you confident."
"I don't care about titles like "Neo Champion"..."
"But I'm starting to think I wouldn't mind taking a big shot like you down a notch or two."
"... ... ..."
"I'm the guy who's going to be the world's greatest Pokémon Trainer."
  • Defeat the Caped Dragon Master
"Yeah, I am."
"That's a given."

"And, well... There may be another person I've got in mind..."
"I already know which Pokémon I want to battle with."
"It'll be this guy."
"Don't tell me you forgot?"
"... ... ..."
"Because I'll have the advantage if I use tactics I haven't used before on Lance."
"I'll beat him this time, for sure!"
"Hmph. Whatever."
"You'll regret giving me that Pokémon Egg..."

"I've been waiting so long to battle you like this..."

"Crush them, Tyranitar!"
"Tsk!"
"Don't underestimate us."
"Beating you...and becoming the world's strongest..."
"is OUR dream! All of ours!"
"I knew from the very start that it wouldn't be easy to beat you..."
"But right now, it's not just me and Tyranitar who're battling!"
"Tsk... You've been like this ever since we met."
"You're always standing in my way, like a big, dense wall!"

"Now that I'm done with Lance, you're next, Geeta."
"My partner's been nagging me for more battles."
"And like I said earlier..."
"I wouldn't mind bringing a big shot like you down a notch or two."

"Well, well, <player>."
"I knew you had what it takes to make it this far."
"But...your little win streak ends here."
"My Pokémon and I have gotten so much stronger as Neo Champions, you won't even recognize us..."
"We're gonna take you down!"
"Battle us, here and now!"
  • After battle
"...What an odd feeling."
"I lost, but I'm not mad about it..."
"I'm gonna figure out why I lost and get stronger."
"And when I do, we're gonna come at you with everything we've got...and take you down."
"Oh—one more thing, <player>."
"Don't forget to let your Pokémon rest and recover after battling."
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Silver
"What determines whether you win or lose in a Pokémon battle is your judgment as a Trainer."
"Even with a strong partner, you could still lose if your judgment is bad."
"Hmph! I guess you could say I was like that not too long ago."
Really?/What do you mean?: "I didn't care about any Pokémon unless it was strong enough to win..."
"That's how I used to think. I focused only on my Pokémon and ignored my own weaknesses."
"Things are different now. Even if I had the most powerful Pokémon in the world, I'd know better than to rely solely on its strength."
"I know I've still got a ways to go to before I become the best Trainer."
"I'm sure I'm not drawing out my partner's full strength. When we lose, it's because I wasn't good enough."
You think so?: "Of course. Chalking up a victory or defeat to their Pokémon is how a weak Trainer thinks..."
That's not true!: "Of course it is. Chalking up a victory or defeat to their Pokémon is how a weak Trainer thinks..."
"Hmph. Maybe I said more than I should've."
"That's it for training. I want to give my Pokémon a break."
"The greatest Trainer should always be aware of their partner's physical condition and act accordingly...I guess."
"My Pokémon couldn't do much for me if it were broken. You have to take care of your belongings, after all..."
"What's with that look?"
Pokémon aren't tools./Pokémon are precious friends.: "Hmph. I know that."
"I'm done treating Pokémon like those weaklings in Team Rocket did."
"Anyway, training time is over. C'mon. Go rest wherever you want."
"Uh... Couldn't you go somewhere with a bit more room? You're not exactly small."
"Hey! I told you to go wherever you want! Tch! What's with you?"
"Is what I'm saying not reaching it or something?"
I don't think that's it./I'm sure it understands you.: "What do you mean?"
"Are you saying you know what my Pokémon is thinking?"
It wants to stay by your side, Silver.: "Is that so? Then I guess it's doing what I told it to do..."
It's resting exactly where it wants!: "Hm. I guess it's doing what I told it to do..."
"Hmph... Whatever."
"... ... ..."
"I came here to help you train, but I guess it turns out I could learn a thing or two from you, too."
""Love and trust toward Pokémon." That's what Lance said. Looks like <player> gets it..."
"I guess it'd be all right to join you for a little more training some other time."
"But make sure you're ready. I hate weaklings, so I'll leave you behind if you can't keep up!"
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Sygna Suit Silver
"Tch... Now we've got a crowd."
Are you talking about the battle on Pasio?: "Yeah... To take on Team Rocket, I had no choice but to team up with Ethan."
That's 'cause you're buddies, right?: "Don't go treating us like we're friends."
"I may have battled on their side, but it just kinda happened, OK?"
"I despise Team Rocket and Giovanni."
"I'd much rather team up with Ethan than have to watch those Team Rocket jerks walk around all high-and-mighty."
"Yeah..."
"... ... ..."
"It's fine."
"You're just stating the obvious."
"My first encounters with Pokémon weren't exactly praiseworthy."
What do you mean?: "I'm in no position to criticize Team Rocket for the bad things they've done."
Did something happen?: "I've also done terrible things to people and Pokémon..."
"That's what I meant."
"What I'm saying is... I'm not exactly the kind of Trainer that Sneasel can be proud of."
"I don't expect to be forgiven."
"But for now, at least, I want to become a Trainer worthy of Sneasel."
"Sneasel..."
"If you think I'm unworthy, you're free to leave."
He trusts you!: "Trust, eh?"
It looks like you have a good relationship.: "Hmm..."
"You're both saying the same thing..."
"You're way too soft."
"All right..."
"I WILL become the strongest in the world."
"I'll do it so you—and everyone else—can be proud of me, Sneasel."
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Silver (Champion)
"Hey, <player>! Come battle me."
"I won't take no for an answer."
"Hmph. I guess that's enough for today."
"Not bad. You held your own against Tyranitar."
"Wild Tyranitar wander through the mountains seeking opponents to fight, but if they find an unworthy opponent, they'll ignore it and move on."
"My Tyranitar also doesn't bother with opponents it thinks aren't worthy."
"So at the very least, it seems my Tyranitar approves of you."
Awesome!: "Hmph... You're easy to please."
Is that a compliment?: "Hmph. Take it how you will."
"But...to be honest, I have to admit you're strong."
"Only a small handful of folks out there are strong enough to satisfy Tyranitar. "
"We've claimed this area as our turf and challenge any strong-looking Trainers who pass by."
Your turf?: "Tyranitar hatched on Pasio. He doesn't know anywhere else..."
Did you meet on Pasio?: "Yeah. I raised him from a Larvitar into what he is now."
"To him, this whole island is basically his turf."
"He hatched from an Egg I got from Eusine a while back."
"When Eusine gave me the Egg my Tyranitar hatched from..."
"it was with the hope that I'd be able to make my dream come true."
"Here on Pasio, Morty was able to become a sync pair with Ho-Oh."
"And Eusine was able to form a sync pair with Suicune. Both of their dreams came true."
"They apparently thought it was my turn next."
"I've done my best to meet their expectations."
"Tyranitar and I even beat Lance together."
"I guess the pressure from others is what drove me to get stronger."
No, that's the power of support!: "Hmph! Figured you'd say something naive like that."
You sure about that?: "What, you got a problem with that?"
"Anyway..."
"Neo Champions are supposed to be role models for everyone on Pasio, aren't they?"
"That means it's your turn next."
"If you've got dreams and goals, then it's time you made them a reality, <player>."
"Tyranitar and I are your role models, so if you mess up, you'll have to answer to us! Got it?"

  • During sync background preview (Sygna Suit)
"I'm gonna... No, WE'RE gonna get even stronger than we are now."
  • During sync background preview (Champion)
"Bring it on! The stronger you are, the more fun we'll have taking you down!"
  • Random conversation
"I hate weaklings..."
"Doesn't matter whether they're weak Pokémon or they're worthless Trainers who can't bring out their Pokémon's strength."
"That's why my partner Pokémon and I follow the strictest training regimen. It's all to become the strongest."
  • If spoken to again
"If a Pokémon is weak or loses a battle, its Trainer has only themself to blame."
"Don't you forget that..."
  • Random conversation
"I hate seeing weak Pokémon and Trainers just loafing around in battle."
"They always just stand there, acting all important, as if they know what they're doing..."
"I hate weaklings like that. We'll train so we won't have to rely on them."
  • If spoken to again
"Don't go associating with weaklings, got it?"
"Losers who annoy me get to learn their lesson real quick."
  • Random conversation
"There's a lot of Trainers on Pasio from regions I'm not familiar with..."
"I was just aiming to become the strongest Trainer in Johto, but it seems there are even more Trainers I need to defeat in this vast world."
"Hmph! Fine. Whether it's on Pasio or anywhere else, I'll still aim to be the strongest!"
  • If spoken to again
"Tell me if you hear of any strong sync pairs."
"My Pokémon and I will smash them to pieces!"
  • Random conversation
"I used to not care how I trained or how I won. "
"But eventually I realized that wasn't the way to truly get stronger."
"I wish I knew that a long time ago..."
  • If spoken to again
"Those guys going around taking Pokémon from people... They're called Team Break, right?"
"Tch! They really bug me. Only weaklings do stuff like that."
"I used to do stupid things like that, but I decided I couldn't keep acting that way if I wanted to become the strongest Trainer."
  • Random conversation
"There's someone I have to surpass..."
"He's supposedly a stronger Trainer than me, so I have to defeat him and prove that's a lie."
"I'll endure any harsh training if it means reaching that goal."
  • If spoken to again
"Why did you become a Pokémon Trainer, <player>?"
"You need to have a goal as a Trainer."
"Having a goal makes it easier to know how you should train."
  • Random conversation
"What do you think you need to get stronger?"
"Strong Pokémon? Lots of training? Those are both important, but..."
"the answer is a rival you don't want to lose to—someone you want to destroy at any cost. You won't slack off with that kind of motivation."
  • If spoken to again
"That Trainer... Next time we meet, I'll definitely beat him."
"When I battle him, I'll make sure you're on my team!"
  • Random conversation
"It's impossible to become the strongest sync pair just by having the strongest Pokémon."
"I thought that if I had the most powerful Pokémon, it would be enough, but..."
"it's pointless unless I become the greatest Trainer in the world, too."
  • If spoken to again
"A long time ago, someone told me that I didn't trust or love my Pokémon enough."
"A few things happened, and afterward I began to understand what that person meant."
"Doesn't seem like you've got that problem, though. You always believe in your Pokémon."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Do you know what it means to be strong?"
"It means fighting alongside your Pokémon–and not being overconfident in your own skills."
"A long time ago, I used to think only weaklings put their trust in their Pokémon during battle."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"When I'm with Sneasel, there are moments when I feel like we really understand each other."
"Maybe that's what people call a "bond..." I think it is, anyway."
"Sneasel has helped me realize a lot of things."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Hmph! Sygna suits are–surprisingly–not too bad."
"The designs of these outfits are based on Pokémon..."
"Maybe if I battle wearing this, I'll be able to understand Pokémon's feelings better than I did before."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"I bet that guy Blue acts like your mentor or something, trying to teach you all kinds of stuff. He does the same with me. "
"If he does, you're better off doing what he says and picking up on his technique and his moves..."
"Take it in and get stronger, until the day you're strong enough to surpass him!"
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"<player>... You always act smiley and cheerful around me."
"Hmph. Enjoy that feeling while it lasts."
"When the time comes for you and me to battle...I'm going to beat you, and I won't show any mercy!"
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Wild Sneasel live in and around Mt. Silver, which is between the Kanto and Johto regions."
"It's an unforgiving environment, with lots of very powerful Pokémon. But even there, the Sneasel manage to survive."
"Maybe I could learn something from them..."
  • If spoken to again
"I've heard that Sneasel live in harsh conditions in other regions as well."
"If I see someone who looks like they know a lot about that, I might just ask them."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Just when I think I've gotten away from you, Ethan–and the others–before I know it, you're hanging around me again..."
"Even though I have no interest in teaming up with anyone... You all just do whatever you want, don't you."
"If someone nearby saw us, they might think I was in some kind of group with you."
  • If spoken to again
"Battling alongside others can bring out more power in people than they'd normally have."
"It's completely against my philosophy, but teaming up with others can lead to greater strength..."
"Tch! I'm not good enough yet to get powerful by teaming up."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"I'm not about to get cocky just because I'm a Neo Champion now."
"If I lost to someone because I let success go to my head...well, that'd just be pathetic."
"I'll be aiming even higher than ever. Better hustle if you wanna keep up."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"I raised my Tyranitar from an Egg."
"Speaking of Pokémon Eggs, they always remind me of that one professor in New Bark Town. "
"He forgave me for what I did...but it's still hard for me to look him in the eye."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"They say Tyranitar's destructive power is so strong, it can make mountains crumble."
"Don't be scared of that when you face us in battle, OK?"
"Battling cowards is boring."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"Every time I lost, I would get frustrated at myself and my Pokémon."
"But as we kept on battling, I could feel us getting stronger, little by little."
"Until we obtained a strength that we could call our own."
"Guess it was all worth it, in the end."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"What are your thoughts about me becoming a Neo Champion, <player>?"
"Think I don't fit the part? Or maybe you're jealous?"
"Hmph. I guess it doesn't matter as long as you still want to beat me."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"Tyranitar is a Pokémon that wanders around mountains searching for opponents."
"I've been doing something similar, going around Pasio and looking for stronger opponents to battle."
"I won't be satisfied by mediocre opponents."
  • If spoken to again
"You'd better stay sharp and be ready for us to challenge you at any time."
"Consider that fair warning. Don't disappoint me."
  • Random conversation (Champion)
"The closer I get to Lance's level, the more I understand what he meant about loving and trusting Pokémon."
"That's why I can tell just how strong of a Trainer he is."
  • If spoken to again
"I don't hundred-percent accept everything Lance says."
"I'll find my own way to keep getting stronger..."
"together with my Pokémon."
  • Special log-in conversation (generic)
"Hm? Oh, it's you, <player>... Have you gotten any stronger?"
"I already know who'll win, but let's battle. If you're up to it, that is."
  • Special log-in conversation (generic) (Sygna Suit)
"<player>... You came here, too, eh?"
"If you've got time, you'd better do some special training... If you don't want me to leave you in the dust, that is."
  • Special log-in conversation (generic) (Champion)
"Finally, <player>. You sure took your sweet time getting here."
"If you keep spacing out, the day'll be over before you know it."
  • Special log-in conversation (morning)

  • Special log-in conversation (morning)

  • Special log-in conversation (afternoon)
"Go on and laze around. While you're napping, I'll get even stronger."
  • Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"So I'm giving you this."
  • After giving out item
"You'd better make good use of it."
  • Special gift conversation (Champion)

"Oh yeah? Try me."
"Tsk..."

Friendship Story - A Special Day with Silver: Part 1
"Ah, <player>. You came."
"I called you here because I wanted to ask you something."
"Ethan and the others are always going on about "friends,", and I wanted to hear what you thought about that."
"I'm not talking about the definition of the word. Of course I know that."
"But if a friend is just someone you can laugh and joke around with, that's such a weak connection that I don't see the point."
"I mean, it's fine to spend time with someone if you're competing and getting stronger together..."
"But what's the point of acting all buddy-buddy, like Ethan and the others?"
"After all, the point of competing is to beat the other person, right?"
"I've got no use for any sickly sweet feelings."
"But everyone else seems so happy with the idea of being "friends," like they want us to all run around holding hands or something."
"If you expect me to do that...forget it."
That's not what friendship means.: "Hm? What do you mean?"
"So you're saying a friend is someone you can...be yourself around?"
You're wrong, Silver.: "You're saying a friend is someone who...lets me be myself?"
"Or at least that's what you think."
"Well, as long as I don't have to change myself to please other people, I guess it's fine."
"And if they still call me a friend despite that..."
"Hmph... This whole conversation isn't like me at all."
"I could do with a change of mood. Have a battle with me!"
"I'm sure that's what you were expecting from me in the first place, anyway."
Friendship Story - A Special Day with Silver: Part 2
"Oh... <player>."
"I just got finished with a team battle..."
"But this time, I didn't feel as much like the others were holding me back."
"Just thinking about what you told me–that I can be myself–must have taken some of the pressure off."
Were you able to trust your teammates?: "Hmm... Well, at the very least, we managed not to annoy each other."
But you still don't like team battles?: "Hmm... Well, at least I didn't hate it this time."
"As long as I'm here on Pasio, I can't exactly avoid team battles."
"And I can't just go on allowing it to be a weakness of mine."
"I guess I should thank you. So...thanks."
"You're willing to help anyone out, even someone like me."
"You and Ethan and others who make friends easily are all really strong as well..."
"and I think I'm beginning to understand why."
"I bet if I keep spending time with you all, I can become a lot stronger myself."
That's what it means to be friends.: "Being able to be myself with you... Huh."
"So, are you saying you're my friend, too?"
You mean as friends?: "Hmph... Who's to say?"
"Think whatever you like. Just as I'll think whatever I like about you."
"Just so you know, I don't plan on staying on the same level as you forever."
"Try not to fall too far behind."
