Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum

Victory Road

"...I'm Marley. ...You are? Oh... <player>, will you help me, please? I want to get through this tunnel. Will you let me go with you?"

"...Pokémon shouldn't be hurt... I'll heal them..."

"...You're going back... Too bad... Bye-bye..."

"...You took so long... Please don't make me wait... I felt a little forlorn waiting..."

"...Oh! This is it. There's a stone tablet ahead... I wanted to see the Pokémon that visits, that's all... ...I appreciate your escorting me... ...Just a little..."

• When walking

"... You're very chatty..."

"...The Pokémon among flowers..."

Route 224

"I... I don't like to talk... I choose my words carefully, but they may still hurt someone accidentally... When I think of that, I clam up... That's why I think this certain Pokémon is so wonderful. It's a Pokémon that conveys the feelings of gratitude in a nice way..."

"That stone tablet... It has a strange feel to it..."

"Thank you... That must have been the Pokémon that conveys the feelings of gratitude... You made it so I could see it... So, I'll have to convey thanks in my own words, too..."

"To you, too... Thank you..."'

"...If you won't battle, I might not come back..."

Yes: "...OK. I... won't lose...!"

• During battle

"...My time with you is drawing to a close."

"I wonder if I can stop worrying about it so much when I get more comfortable talking..."
