Gladion/Quotes

These are Gladion's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon Sun and Moon

Route 5

"Are you even taking this seriously?"

"...Enjoying it?"

"You can enjoy Pokémon battling when you put everything you have into it... which clearly you haven't."

"You're <player>?"

Yeah, that's me: "Hmph. Not very cautious. Even some Pokémon have a better sense of self-preservation than you apparently do."

Nope, not me/Who?: "Hmm. So you have enough sense to be wary. Not bad..."

"I'm Gladion. I battle for my partner, Null, to make it strong. Though most of our time gets used up doing small jobs for Team Skull."

• Before battle

"Battle me. I won't take no for an answer."

• Upon being defeated

"How annoying!"

• After battle

"Hmph... It's not like me to slip up like that. I've got to keep fighting stronger opponents. Looks like I'm still not ready..."

Regardless of choice: "That kid there. His Pokémon aren't weak."

"And sure, it's fine to enjoy battling..."

"But this brat... he's just using that as an excuse not to try hard because he can't beat the kahuna. Because he can't beat Hala when he's serious!"

"Just give it up already."

"You know you can't beat me. You'll just get your Pokémon hurt for no reason."

"They're good Pokémon."

Royal Avenue

"Hmph. Why do I do this... Every time something brings me down, I end up coming right back here again..."

"Come on, Null. Let's go bury our sorrow in the crowd."

Battle Royal Dome

"Because Null and I have to make it on our own. And I don't ever want to forget that."

Akala Motel - Route 8

"Get out."

Route 13

"You only have one volume, don't you? Haven't you ever heard the expression that silence is golden?"

"Listen, Team Skull is looking for a Pokémon called Cosmog... Do you two know anything?"

"So you do know something. Look... Cosmog isn't even a strong Pokémon. But it has the potential to summon Pokémon so terrifyingly strong that you don't even know. If something like that happened, it would be a disaster for Alola..."

"Protect it! If you do know where Cosmog is or if you do find anything out...just keep it safe! I know I might be working for Team Skull right now, so you may not trust me or care but... I'm going to tell you this just once. You have to protect Cosmog... no matter what!"

"I still don't even understand how Team Skull found out about Cosmog in the first place..."

Aether House

• Before battle

"Did I hear that right? It was Lillie who took Cosmog?!"

"And you all are so useless and weak that now Cosmog is... Lillie is... Arghhh! I'll show you how angry you make me!"

• Upon being defeated

"Hmph... How annoying."

• After battle

"That was wrong of me... I shouldn't have dragged you into a meaningless battle like that..."

"But I told you both! I told you that Cosmog would bring disaster to all of Alola! I have to get it back from them!"

"We'll leave from the ferry terminal. You're coming with me whether you like it or not, so the only question is, are you ready to come now or not?"

Yes: "Good... Then let's go."

No: "I'll wait for you near the Ula'ula ferry terminal. Don't make me wait long."

Malie City

• Before battling Nanu

"Hrmph..."

"So, we're waiting for Hau?"

Regardless of choice: "Yeah, I guess so... He's a pretty interesting kid. I'll give you that."

"Growing up in the great kahuna's shadow and still trying to stand up to Hala as an equal? ...I couldn't do it."

"Officer Nanu?"

• After defeating Nanu

"Don't you dare say a word about this being fun."

"Hmph... So you're not quite as dumb as you are naive."

"It'll be Aether Paradise."

Aether Paradise

B1F

"Aether Paradise's harbor... We made it this far without running into trouble. But I don't like how quiet it is. You two...stay alert."

"She just will be."

"I guess...we take the elevator."

• If talked to before using the elevator

"The air is already growing heavy... I have to do something!"

• If talked to after attempting to use the elevator

"Hmph. Just like I thought..."

"Looks like outsiders can't use the main elevator to reach the lower levels."

"I was afraid this might happen. But still... What a pain."

"We don't have any choice. We'll have to go up."

1F

"Like you don't know why. You of all people should know everything that happens in the Aether Foundation. Isn't that right, high-and-mighty Branch Chief?"

"Hey, <player>."

"You know why being a Trainer is so great? Because when you're battling, it doesn't matter if you're a kid or an adult. Everyone's equal in Pokémon battle!"

• After defeating Faba

"So... As I said, Faba. You of all people know what I'm here for."

"We're in a bit of a hurry, Faba. A lift would be nice."

"<Player>. Hau. If you're ready, let's head down."

"Are you ready?"

Yes: "...All right. Let's go."

No: "...Don't make me wait too long."

B2F

"...Everything looks the same. I guess it's only been two years, though."

"Don't get too excited, Hau."

"Though I guess it's better than freezing from fear or nerves."

"There are two labs up ahead. I'll check the first lab, Secret Lab A. You two check out Secret Lab B. It's the second lab, down the hall."

"...Just focus, Hau. Think you can do that? We can't trust Faba. I'm sure he's already told half the foundation all about us."

• If talked to in front of Secret Lab A

"It's not here..."

"Don't even think about getting in here."

"Me and Null... We're more alike than we might look. We're both what we were made to be..."

"I was like an ornament to my mother. Wearing whatever she told me to wear, acting however she wanted me to act..."

"Null was crafted just as carefully. It was made just to battle the beasts. In this room...right here..."

• After searching Secret Lab B

"Did you find anything?"

"If you stress it... If you hurt it—is that what you mean? Was that why she ran away with it?"

"Yeah... Faba probably knew this would be a dead end."

"Darn... Did he outsmart us?"

1F (after clearing B2F)

"Hmph... Even beaten down, old Faba doesn't change, does he?"

"Beat whoever stands in our way. What other choice do we have?"

• After defeating the first pair of Aether Foundation Employees

"That's what you get when you go through the trials of the island challenge. Now that you understand...how about you get out of our way?"

"Let's go."

"You know... I know we aren't friends. But I'm glad you two are here... I remember what you said at Battle Royal Dome that day, Hau. About how people can achieve more if they do something together. Looks like maybe you were right."

"What's happened to Lillie? Do you know anything?"

"Then that's where I'm going. That's all I need to know."

"Yeah, she's real nice...as long as you mean nothing to her."

"That's not stopping me."

"We don't have time for this. Help me out here, <player>."

• After defeating the second pair of Aether Foundation Employees

"Maybe helping one another out isn't so bad..."

"<Player>! Hau! I leave Faba to you!"

Outside

"Ngh! So I'm still not strong enough."

"All the days that I struggled alone and lonely... it was all for nothing? Is that it?"

• If talked to again

"Please...help Lillie... and save Cosmog! I'll be right behind you..."

Trophy Room

"Will you listen to me at least? You mustn't open the Ultra Wormhole. You cannot let the beasts run wild!"

"I'll stop the beast!"

"My partner Null was born to be a beast killer!"

"Hau, you take Guzma!"

"<Player>! Stop the president!!! If we don't, Alola will be flooded with beasts!"

• After defeating Lusamine

"What is it?"

"Come on. Let's get out of here. Nothing good can happen here."

Lusamine's room

"Yeah, maybe. But there is still a ton we have to do..."

"There's the president and Guzma, who both disappeared into the Ultra Wormhole..."

"Not to mention Cosmog and why it stopped moving like that..."

"Even if she is...like that, Lusamine is still our mother. We can't just leave her in the beast's world."

"We might be able to reach other worlds if we had Alola's Legendary Pokémon on our side. The people of Alola worship it, but I don't know if it's even real..."

"We'll take you up on that."

Outside (the next day)

"So this is where you were."

"I found this downstairs."

"It's the Moon^S/Sun^M Flute. It's apparently an artifact from Alola's past. They say it's to be played under the moon's^S/sun's^M light."

"The Sun Flute and the Moon Flute. When sounded together, it's said that they can call the Legendary Pokémon... That is, if you believe in old myths, anyway."

"Looks to me like that woman was even planning to add the Legendary Pokémon to her little collection here."

"Here. Take this with you."

"It's a Master Ball. It can catch any Pokémon without fail."

"I'm counting on you to help Lillie. This is the least I can do."

"Deal with this mess. I've got to clean up Aether Paradise."

"I'd wanted to get as far away from this place as I could, together with Null... but in the end, it looks like I ended up right back here again..."

"What was that?"

"Sorry for dragging you into our family mess."

"Yeah. Our mother does like to do things on an... extravagant scale."

"I can get you to the next island at least. Poni Island. I'll wait for you at the docks."

B1F (the next day)

"Ready to go?"

Yes: "All right."

No: "Then I'll wait here."

Seafolk Village

"Poni Island... Almost no one lives on it, but you'll find a whole lot of nature to explore here."

"Go. Find the kahuna. The kahuna of Poni Island also protects the shrine where Alola's people worship the Legendary Pokémon. Maybe they will know something that might help you."

"I'm sorry... I wasn't there for you when you needed me. All I could think about back then was finding a way to save Null... That was the battle I was fighting. But now you've found your own battle to fight. I know you can handle it."

Mount Lanakila

• Before battle

"I've been waiting for you. To thank you. For what you did for Lillie. For our mother. I appreciate it. Maybe more than you know. And the only thing I can offer you in thanks is a great battle. So I'm going to show my full power... My real full power this time! With the Z-Ring that old man gave me!"

• Upon being defeated

"Hmph. There's nothing more to say."

• After battle

"You've got a good/good Pokémon. I know what kind of Trainer you are now. And what kind of journey you've been through."

"Lillie wanted me to tell you something. She's looking after our mother at the foundation."

"She wanted me to tell you...that you're the best Pokémon Trainer in the world, <player>."

"She gave me this. For you."

"Hau's working hard to get stronger, too."

"Hmph... If you two are going to get even stronger, then I guess I can't let down my guard yet."

"I know we aren't friends. But we aren't enemies anymore either. Keep winning. Maybe I'll see you again if you do."

Akala Motel - Route 8

• Letter

"Mother— I apologize most sincerely for the actions I took in taking Null and running away. Yet I cannot regret these actions. They were for the sake of the greater good. So, until we meet again..."

Aether Paradise

2F

• After becoming Champion

"So you came..."

"I guess I've got to thank you again for all you've done for my family... Especially...for Lillie. I never knew she could smile like that."

"My mother's desires to reach Nihilego... and what she did in order to achieve that goal... I know she was completely out of control. But that doesn't mean I can't understand it."

"It was my father who started it. He was the one who first confirmed the existence of Ultra Wormholes and Ultra Beasts."

"But my father... He disappeared during an experiment. Trying to connect to an Ultra Wormhole. All that he left behind was a weakened Cosmog and his papers about Nihilego..."

"Lusamine's obsession with Ultra Wormholes... and her obsession with the Ultra Beasts... I think it was all basically her way of trying to reach him again. That's what I had to believe. To get through it."

"It's not an apology or anything, but... I hope you'll take this fellow."

• If the player's party and PC Boxes are all full

"You can't even take Type: Null? How many Pokémon have you collected? I can't even believe you... Fine. Come back when you're ready to take it."

• After receiving Type: Null

"And I'll give you all the memory drives that let its Evolution, Silvally, change its type..."

"This is a different Type: Null. Not the same one that I ran away with... It was kept in Secret Lab A. Its very existence was a secret."

"But I think I know you well enough. I think I can trust you to show it the world."

"Hmph... Maybe it's time I see a bit more of the world myself... and starting with that Pokémon League, I think. I hear that Alola's got a real strong Champion."

Pokémon League

First challenge

• Before battle

"What does a Pokémon Trainer really need to be successful? I guess everyone might have their own answer. But for me... I want the strongest rival for myself."

• Upon being defeated

"All I have to do is avoid making any more mistakes... After all, I have Silvally with me."

• After battle

"Losing can teach you a lot, you know. I learn a lot from it... Losing just helps you see how to get stronger. So I'm glad we did this. That I had a Champion to help me get stronger."

Subsequent challenges

• Before battle

"You just use your best moves and see who is left standing at the end, right?"

• Upon being defeated

"All I have to do is avoid making any more mistakes... After all, I have Silvally with me."

• After battle

"Phew... I'll be back again. You can count on that, Champion!"

Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon

Route 5

"Are you even taking this seriously?"

"...Enjoying it?"

"You can enjoy Pokémon battling when you put everything you have into it... which clearly you haven't."

"You're <player>?"

Yeah, that's me: "Hmph. Not very cautious. Even some Pokémon have a better sense of self-preservation than you apparently do."

Nope, not me/Who?: "Hmm. So you have enough sense to be wary. Not bad..."

"I'm Gladion. Me and my partner, Type: Null, are training to get stronger... We have to get stronger! Though most of our time these days goes to working for Team Skull as their muscle."

• Before battle

"Battle me. I won't take no for an answer."

• Upon being defeated

"How annoying!"

• After battle

"Hmph... It's not like me to slip up like that. I've got to keep fighting stronger opponents. Looks like I'm still not ready..."

What?/Strong opponents?: "That kid there. His Pokémon aren't weak."

"And sure, it's fine to enjoy battling..."

"But this brat... he's just using that as an excuse not to try hard because he can't beat the kahuna. Because he can't beat Hala when he's serious!"

"Just give it up already."

"You know you can't beat me. You'll just get your Pokémon hurt for no reason."

"They're good Pokémon."

Royal Avenue

"Hmph. Why do I do this... Every time something brings me down, I end up coming right back here again..."

"Come on, Null. We'll beat everyone who stands before us. We're going to be strong enough to protect them this time..."

Battle Royal Dome

"I'm not here to play. I'm here because you can't protect anything when you're weak."

Akala Motel - Route 8

"Get out."

Route 13

"You only have one volume, don't you? Haven't you ever heard the expression that silence is golden?"

"Listen, Team Skull is looking for a Pokémon called Cosmog... Do you two know anything?"

"I still don't even understand how Team Skull found out about Cosmog in the first place..."

Aether House

• Before battle

"Did I hear that right? It was Lillie who took Cosmog?!"

"I still couldn't protect them...? Then what was the point of me even leaving home in the first place?! I can't stand this... This useless feeling... I'll blow it away with everything I've got!"

• Upon being defeated

"Hmph... How annoying."

• After battle

"That was wrong of me... I shouldn't have dragged you into a meaningless battle like that..."

"But I told you both! I told you that Cosmog would bring disaster to all of Alola! I have to get it back from them!"

"Hrmph..."

"So, we're waiting for Hau?"

We should wait/He'll come: "Yeah, I guess so... He's a pretty interesting kid. I'll give you that."

"Growing up in the great kahuna's shadow and still trying to stand up to Hala as an equal? Not just that, but trying to become even better than Hala, too? ...I couldn't do it."

"Officer Nanu?"

• After defeating Nanu

"Don't you dare say a word about this being fun."

"Hmph... So you're not quite as dumb as you are naive."

"It'll be Aether Paradise."

• If the player leaves Aether Paradise and talks to him again

"This is it. Aether Paradise. Are you ready for this?"

Yes: "Hah... Then here we go."

No: "Fine. I'm waiting for you, though."

Aether Paradise

Trophy Room

"Listen to us. Please! Don't open the Ultra Wormhole! We can't lose anyone else... Not like we lost Father!"

"Mother, if you disappear, too—!"

• After defeating Lusamine

"Wait! Let me go! My partner Null was born to be a beast killer! I've trained it all this time to be able to battle on the other side of that Ultra Wormhole!"

"What is it?"

"Come on. Let's get out of here. Nothing good can happen here."

Lusamine's room

"Yeah, maybe. But there is still a ton we have to do..."

"There's the president and Guzma, who both disappeared into the Ultra Wormhole... Not to mention Cosmog and why it stopped moving like that... Even if she is...like that, Lusamine is still our mother. We can't just leave her in some unknown world on her own, even if it is to defeat^US/capture^UM Necrozma. And if she doesn't come back..."

"What was that you just said?! You said you were going to send someone back to your world? Do you know some other way to open an Ultra Wormhole?!"

"We'll take you up on that."

Outside (the next day)

"So this is where you were."

"I found this downstairs."

"It's the Moon^US/Sun^UM Flute. It's apparently an artifact from Alola's past. They say it's to be played under the moon^US/sun^UM's light."

"The Sun Flute and the Moon Flute. When sounded together, it's said that they can call the Legendary Pokémon... That is, if you believe in old myths, anyway."

"It's like the members of the Ultra Recon Squad said, right? If the Legendary Pokémon really does exist, we might be able to reach that other world where Necrozma is."

"Here. Take this with you."

"It's a Master Ball. It can catch any Pokémon without fail."

"I'm counting on you to save my family now. This is the least I can do."

"Deal with this mess. I've got to clean up Aether Paradise."

"All I wanted was to be able to protect everybody, together with Null... Maybe I couldn't do that, but I'll make sure that this place at least stays safe. The foundation that our mother loved..."

"What?"

"So our family drama ended up changing the kind of Trainer you want to be... Sorry for getting you dragged into our mess."

"I guess... She's always convinced that what she's doing is right, and she's really kind of selfish, but... But...I think she really just wanted to find our father, who disappeared into an Ultra Wormhole."

"I can get you to the next island at least. Poni Island. I'll wait for you at the docks."

"Last time I saw Lillie, she was heading up to Mahalo Trail... It seemed like she had something on her mind."

"She's...she's gentle enough to be able to feel how much pain Pokémon go through. I guess that's a kind of strength, too."

"Here. Take this. She wanted me to give it to you."

"You know, I tried battling Hau, too... He's really changed. I'm not surprised anymore that he managed to beat even Kahuna Hala."

"Hmph... If you two are going to get even stronger, then I guess I can't let down my guard yet."

"I know we aren't friends. But we aren't enemies anymore either. Keep winning. Maybe I'll see you again if you do."

Pokémon League

First challenge

• Before battle

"What does a Pokémon Trainer really need to be successful? I trained for a long time trying to figure that out. I guess everyone might have their own answer. But at least for me... I want the strongest rival for myself."

• Upon being defeated

"All I have to do is avoid making any more mistakes... After all, I have Silvally with me."

• After battle

"I didn't beat you, but it was still worth it... Going to train in Kanto, I mean. At the very least, I can appreciate your strength a lot more now than I could've before. Thanks, Champ. You've helped make us stronger."

Subsequent challenges

• Before battle

"You just use your best moves and see who is left standing at the end, right?"

• Upon being defeated

• After battle

"Phew... I'll be back again. You can count on that, Champion!"

• Opened Gate to Other Worlds

"Let's go."

"You were born to be a beast killer..."

"If you see a path in front of you, take it! The further you go, the stronger you become!"

• The Family's Request

"Hey! We've been looking all over for you. Got a favor to ask."

"Lillie went and entered us into this family battle competition that's coming up soon..."

• A Family against All Odds

"Did you see how in sync they were? How could there be that much of a gap between us..."

"All right."

Gladion was on fire!: "Yeah. I feel like my reaction time's getting quicker."

"Hmph. We've got this."

"Come on, Lillie! Let's finish 'em together!"

• A Family Divided

"We did some more training after that first session with Koga..."

"but the three of us are still struggling to get in sync with each other as a team."

"You're right. Our strategy should be more than enough to defeat most of the teams here."

"We're gonna win this!"

"Brendan? I didn't know you were gonna be competing today."

"What?!"

"... ... ..."

"Hey... We need to change our strategy."

"Did you see who we're matched up against? There's no way we're gonna win against a powerhouse team from Hoenn like this."

"If we wanna win, we've gotta give up trying to get in sync with each other. It's just not working."

"Our only chance is to throw everything we've got at them individually!"

"If we want our team to win, that's just what we're gonna have to do."

"Huh?! What's the matter with you? There's no point in competing if you're not trying to win!"

"We're running out of time. Come on, we need to start preparing."

• A Two-Way Street

"What do you mean you're removing yourself from the team?!"

"... ... ..."

"Did you forget why we started practicing for this in the first place?"

"This is a FAMILY competition. We wanted to win it together as family!"

"If you won't even be on the team, I'd rather just withdraw altogether!"

"We did it. We defeated Brendan's team."

"When I heard our family would be fighting as a team, I had no idea how things would turn out."

"But I'm glad we did it."

"Hmph."

• Lost and Found

"Clefairy had just about given up on waiting for you."

"Unbelievable... I see your sense of direction is as bad as ever."

• Gladion's Predicament

"Hey, <player>."

"Do you know any Pokémon that can make string?"

"My clothes got ripped while I was training. Some string should suffice for a quick fix."

• If spoken to

"Let me know if you see any."

• After tapping the second rock from the right

"Oh, great! If we could just get a little string..."

"Uh-oh! Let's get out of here!"

"Phew. Looks like we got away safely."

"Oh, come on..."

"You can't get your own clothes ripped trying to help fix mine. That defeats the purpose!"

"Hmph. Looks like he still has a long way to go in his training."

• After tapping the second rock from the left

"Hm? Are you hungry or something?"

"Hmph. Guess I have no choice. This is Silvally's, but I'll share some with you."

"What? I'm not giving away all of it! I'll save some for you!"

• When spoken to after smashing the two rocks that trigger cutscenes

"This is shaping up to be a tough search."

"Hey! Isn't that..."

"All right. This should be enough."

"I'll fix your ripped clothes. Come here."

• Off-screen

"OK. All done."

• On-screen

Thanks!: "Hmph. It was no big deal."

What about your clothes, Gladion?: "Hmph. My clothes can wait."

"I'm used to having a few rips in my outfit."

• Gladion the Gladiator?

"Hapu, who's this guy you want me to meet up with? Just spill it already!"

"You can teach me things that'll take me to even greater heights as a Trainer! I'll be stronger than ever!"

"G-Gladiator?! Not exactly the nickname I had in mind..."

"Sure... Yeah..."

• Pasio's Elegant Ladies

"Lillie used to be so shy and reserved, always taking things slowly at her own pace..."

"Hmph. Now she's like a totally different person."

"Hmph. Right."

"(These two sleepyheads seem to have grown pretty powerful, slow pace or not... Could that actually be the secret to their strength?!)"

"(I guess it would've been possible for Lillie to grow stronger in a similar way, even if she'd continued to take things slow...)"

"(But as her brother, I kind of like this new Lillie... It's good to see her working hard and doing her best.)"

• Sibling Advantages

"It's crazy how much people's personalities come through when battling tag team."

• Off-screen

"You move like you have twin telepathy, Tate and Liza. It seems like you always know what the other is gonna do."

"In a battle format where teamwork is key, that's a huge plus to have."

• On-screen

"Lance and Clair, I know that you two are cousins..."

• Off-screen

"Compared to Tate and Liza, you two seemed to move pretty independently of each other."

• On-screen

"But that just proves how much you trust each other and respect each other's skill."

"You don't need me to tell you how strong you are."

"It was?"

"Wha—"

"W-well, what else was I supposed to do..."

"An advantage, huh."

"Seems like having a sibling on your team may not be a bad thing at all."

• Past vs. Future
• Off-screen, as "???"

"Silvally doesn't hate you."

• After appearing, as Gladion

"Silvally's not the type to dwell on things that happened in the past."

"When it destroyed its control mask, it let go of all the pain and hatred it felt with it."

"Now, Silvally's focused on the future more than anything else."

"Yeah. And when it thinks about the future, I'm sure you and Pheromosa are there right along with us."

"As our allies, fighting right there beside us."

"You should try it sometime, too, Mother..."

"Focusing on the future, I mean."

• A Family of Rivals

"Just thinking about something that's been nagging at me..."

"You and Pheromosa basically have limitless potential when it comes to your strength. Who really knows what you're capable of?"

• Off-screen

"Any way you look at it, you two are a lot stronger than Silvally and me..."

• On-screen

"I don't plan on leaving it that way, Mother. I'll show you that Silvally and I can become stronger than any other sync pair!"

"Because...I want to protect you and Lillie."

"I want to protect my family."

"Hmph. That sounds like a challenge. Let's see which one of us can become the strongest!"

"We may be family..."

"but we're rivals, too!"

"So you already knew. Guess I should have seen that coming."

"... ... ..."

"Yeah... I'll do everything I can to help you out, too."

Story Event - Revel in Rivalry

"Yeah. What she said."

• The Starting Line

"You're not getting away!"

"These punks were gonna take advantage of this tournament."

"They were planning to wait until we were all tired..."

"then swoop in and steal all of our Pokémon!"

Story Event - Mechanized—Love and Solitude

• The Unclaimed Antique

"Isn't that a Mythical Pokémon that was constructed by humans over 500 years ago?"

"So...we need to find whoever this Magearna was meant for?"

"OK. You can count on us."

"Let's go, Lillie."

• Contrary Thoughts

"I didn't think that it'd be easy..."

"but zero progress at all is pretty rough."

"Study it..?"^[sic]

"Get lost."

"I won't let you lay a single finger on Magearna."

"If you don't get why, I'm not gonna waste my breath explaining it."

"If you really want Magearna, you'll have to take it from me by force."

"You—!"

"... ... ..."

• A True Family

"...Yeah."

"Cosmog and Silvally were treated terribly when they were used for research at the Aether Foundation..."

"We can't let that happen again."

"That's why Colress's attitude made me see red... He only sees Pokémon as research subjects."

"I was there for Silvally, and Cosmog had Lillie."

"But at this rate, Magearna's gonna be all on its own."

"That's why I want to help deliver it..."

"to the Trainer who's supposed to be its true family."

"No."

"I know how terrible it feels to be separated from family, which is why I know I can't replace that."

"But...we can't just trust any old stranger with it, either..."

"Which is why Magearna should be reunited with its real family."

"Let's go, Magearna."

• A Luxurious Party

"No leads today, either..."

"Don't worry, Magearna."

"I'll definitely find your family."

"Lillie. What's up?"

"What...?"

"Yeah..."

• Wearing his sygna suit, off-screen

"A moment of your time, if I may?"

• After appearing

"Allow me to introduce myself. I'm Gladion."

"This is my younger sister, Lillie."

"We heard that you're all familiar with antiques..."

"Do you happen to know anything about a Trainer who got separated from this Magearna?"

"No, I'm just taking care of it for now."

"Do you have any other acquaintances who might know something?"

"That's OK. Thank you for your time."

"Should've known it wouldn't be that easy..."

"Magearna..."

"Hmph. I should be cheering YOU up, really..."

• Gladion's True Feelings

"Do you happen to know Magearna's Trainer—"

"What?!"

"Team Break?!"

"(So, they're after Magearna...)"

"Yeah, I know..."

"Now, Magearna!"

• Off-screen

"This way!"

• On-screen

"Sorry, but I can't hand Magearna over to the likes of you."

"Because..."

"I want to protect it, that's why!"

"Even if it's just temporary..."

"Until Magearna is able to reunite with its true family..."

"I'll support it as its family—and I'll protect it!"

"Especially from people like you who only want it because it's so rare!"

"I'll even protect it from the unbearable loneliness! And I—"

"What was that?!"

"Wh-what? What are you saying?"

"Hmph... So that's what this was about?"

"That's low, Mom. Putting on an act like that..."

"And that's what happened, so..."

"I can't give you Magearna."

"But..."

"If you want to come around and say hi to it every once in a while, you're welcome to do so."

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Gladion

"All bark, no bite. Seems they've still got a ways to go... Hm?"

"Oh. It's just you... Did you see some weirdos come through here?"

They went that way.: "I see. I guess there's no reason to keep chasing after them."

They ran off somewhere.: "I see. Those Trainers were weak, but perhaps their real strength is in running away."

"Those fools ambushed me while I was walking and demanded that I hand over my Pokémon."

"And if that weren't bad enough, they thought they'd sell it for a high price because it's rare. Just what do they think Pokémon are?!"

"Though...I may not have been so different once. But that was a long time ago."

"I used to run with a group just like those guys."

"Hmph. I know what's important, though. No use looking back on what can't be changed. I need to look ahead to the future I can still shape."

"A future for all Pokémon..."

You must really love Pokémon.: "Hmph... I guess that's one way of putting it. But it's more personal to me than that."

You can't ignore injustice?: "I'm not what you'd call a great guy or anything. My reasons are actually pretty selfish."

"When you get right down to it, I just really hate people who exploit others to benefit themselves."

"My Pokémon, Type: Null, was created by people who wanted to use it for their own ends."

"And as long as they got what they wanted, they didn't care about any of the terrible things that Type: Null had to endure."

"They didn't care at all about how Type: Null felt!"

"People change when they're chasing a goal. Some people change for the better, and some just end up turning bad..."

How sad...: "I suppose it's normal to feel that way. But those people were too far gone to feel the same."

What happened?: "Nothing you need to worry about."

"I just couldn't sit by and watch Type: Null be so unhappy anymore, so I took it with me."

"And I decided I'd get stronger to protect it."

"But...after my battles with a certain Trainer, I realized I was just making excuses to bury my loneliness."

"Silvally and I, we take care of each other. It's a mutual arrangement, not one-sided at all."

"We're equal partners. That's what it means to be a sync pair."

"Hmph..."

You must really care about Silvally.: "Hmph... That goes without saying."

You two make for a unique sync pair!: "Hmph... If you say so. That suits me just fine."

"We've stood here talking long enough. Let's get going, Nu—"

"Hmph. Sorry. Old habits are tough to break."

"You're not Type: Null anymore. You're...no, we're different from the way we used to be."

"Let's go, Silvally."

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Sygna Suit Gladion

"No leads today, either..."

"Don't get discouraged, Magearna. We'll find them..."

"<player>... What a coincidence running into you here."

Are you shopping?: "No, not really. I'm looking for someone..."

You're interested in antiques?: "I mean...kind of, but that's not why I'm here today. I'm looking for someone..."

"Magearna's true Trainer."

"For some reason, Magearna was delivered to an antique shop in Alola."

"We don't know who the sender or recipient were... And we couldn't find that recipient anywhere in Alola."

"It was taken in by the Aether Foundation, and now I'm looking after it."

"That said... I'm sure it wants to be with whoever was supposed to receive it, if possible."

"A lot of people from various regions have come to Pasio, so I thought I might find a clue here..."

"Magearna...I'll definitely find the person you were meant to be delivered to."

"I'm just filling in for now so you don't feel lonely..."

It seems to be saying no, though...?: "I see... You think so, too?"

What's it saying?: "This might be my own ego talking, but I think it was disagreeing with me."

"I've heard that Magearna can understand human speech..."

"If so, that means it really does want to be with me?"

"...Hmph."

"Maybe we were destined to be a sync pair all along."

Destined?: "Yeah. Believing in fate isn't so bad every once in a while."

I think you make a great team!: "Yeah? That means a lot, coming from you..."

"Just like you and your partner Pokémon..."

"People and Pokémon sometimes seem to find each other by a strange twist of fate."

"I'm not gonna let that stop me from searching for whoever Magearna was supposed to be sent to."

"But if we do find them..."

"I'll let Magearna decide whether it wants to stay with me or be with them."

"For now, I'll do my best to be someone it wants to choose, and to convince that other Trainer, too."

"Until then...stay by my side, Magearna."

Sync Pair Story - Brionne's Evolution

• Before battle

"Silvally and I have continued to polish our moves here on Pasio..."

"but I wonder just how strong we've become since we left Alola."

"Elio. I want a battle with you. You OK with that?"

"Hmph. You never change."

"Let's go. We're coming at you with all we've got!"

• After being defeated

"You really have a good Pokémon. And you've gotten a lot stronger, too, Elio."

"Heh. Looks like we both were able to strengthen our bonds with our partners."

Pokémon Center

• During sync background preview

"I'm going to show my full power... My REAL full power!"

• During sync background preview (Sygna Suit)

"I'll definitely find your family."

• Random conversation

"I used to work as hired muscle for an organization called Team Skull."

"They were a bunch of small-time punks who had nothing better to do than make trouble for others."

"Not that I was any different, though."

"Back then, I didn't care what I was doing. All I wanted was for us to get stronger."

• Random conversation

"I have a little sister."

"She's pretty soft-spoken, and she used to hate even the thought of Pokémon battling each other. She's sweet like that."

"So sweet, in fact, that it worries me. A lot."

• Random conversation

"Pokémon are invaluable companions, but don't expect to be all buddy-buddy with them right away."

"It takes a lot of time and effort to build up trust with Pokémon."

"Don't even think about trying to force them to do what you want. That's a recipe for disaster."

• Random conversation

"I want to become a stronger Trainer. That's why I came to Pasio to continue my training."

"The way Pokémon battles are conducted here is interesting. I've never seen anything like it before."

"I also feel like the style of battling as sync pairs suits me to a T."

"Maybe because battles here foster a clear sense of battling side-by-side with Pokémon as equals."

• Random conversation

"You know, <player>... You and your partner Pokémon make a good sync pair."

"Watching how you two battle, I can tell what kind of journey you've been through."

"Hmph. I guess I still have a long journey ahead of me."

"I'm glad I have this opportunity to fight alongside you two on the same team."

• Random conversation

"Someday my training journey will end. I don't know what I'll do afterward just yet. It's not like I haven't thought about it, though."

"I want to protect everyone with my partner Pokémon—especially my family. That much I do know."

"Hmph. Look at me opening up to you like this."

"Must be something in the air here that's making me soft. It's not so bad, though, to be honest."

• If spoken to again

"Do you plan to continue your training? Have you thought about what to do afterwards?"

"There's no need to rush things. Just keep blazing forward with your partner and making your own path."

• Random conversation

"Hey, <player>. Your clothes are getting a little tattered."

"I bet you've been so caught up in your battles that you didn't even notice, huh? Hmph. Typical."

"I've seen this kinda wear and tear before. Nothing that a little needlework won't fix."

"What are you looking at me for? I'm not gonna fix your clothes for you. That's all you."

• If spoken to again

"What? You want me to teach you how to sew?"

"I guess I can show you the ropes. Or threads, in this case."

"I'm self-taught, though. Don't come crying to me later if my methods don't work for you!"

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"Hm? I look different than usual...but it's a good look on me?"

"Heh. I see..."

"I guess I should make sure a Pokémon doesn't rip this outfit, then."

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"It's not bad, battling by your side..."

"But we're also competing with each other to be the best sync pair."

"If you and I ever do face off, I'll come at you with my full power."

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"I'm used to taking care of my outfits... What, is that a surprise?"

"It's a sign of me and my partner's trust in each other—I have to make sure it lasts."

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"Did you know Magearna is an artificial Pokémon that was built by humans a long time ago?"

"Maybe this is fate..."

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"<player>... What do you hope to achieve by becoming strong?"

"I wanted strength so I could protect my sister, even if it meant I had to beat up everyone else."

"But my sister taught me about another type of strength—the strength that comes from kindness..."

"You're a bit like her, with your empathy and kindness towards Pokémon."

"I'm looking forward to seeing what path you'll end up choosing."

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"A new antique shop opened the other day."

"I think Magearna's interested in it."

"But it's hard for me to enter a shop like that by myself. If you could come with me, I'd appreciate it..."

• If spoken to again

"I have to buy a present for Lillie and my mom."

"That said, I don't know what to get them..."

"I can't even pick a present for my family... How pathetic..."

• Random conversation (Sygna Suit)

"You're always so busy, running around all over the place."

"It's fine if you like to explore, but be sure not to wear out your partner Pokémon."

"Though...I'm sure I don't need to worry about you doing that."

Friendship Story - A Special Day with Gladion: Part 1

"... ... ..."

(Suggest doing something else for a change of pace.): "Are you saying I should take a break for once?"

(Suggest going somewhere for fun.): "Right now?"

"Heh. Sorry to make you worry."

"... ... ..."

(Ask if he's not having a good time.): "No, that's not it..."

(Ask if something unpleasant happened.): "No, not necessarily..."

"Hmph. I feel so pathetic."

"Apparently, I'm easy to read when I'm with you..."

(Let him know you can tell he's trying to act cool.): "Hau said something like that to me once."

(Tell him that he should share what's really on his mind.): "Sorry. I appreciate you saying that..."

"But this a problem I need to face on my own. I don't want you to get involved."

"Let's head back."

"You have nothing to gain right now by staying here with me."

"It'd only waste your time."

"You don't mind and you want to hang out again?"

"Hmph. You're stubborn, just like some other people I know."

"OK, then. Just let me know when and I'll be there."

"If that's what you want, I guess."

Friendship Story - A Special Day with Gladion: Part 2

"The ocean, huh..."

"It reminds me of Alola..."

(Shout out your feelings.): "W-what's wrong?"

(Shout out your worries.): "H-huh? What's going on all of a sudden?"

"You're saying it's easier to open up if you talk at the ocean?"

"Heh. I'm no match for you, huh?"

"All right. I'll say what's really on my mind."

"Just don't laugh at how cowardly I am..."

"I'm scared of losing people in my life!"

"No matter how strong of a bond I have with someone, one day, it could all crumble in an instant..."

"When I think about how that could happen, I get so anxious!"

"Have I talked to you about my father before?"

"He suddenly disappeared one day after getting sucked into an Ultra Wormhole..."

"From then on, my family started to fall apart."

"I managed to repair the bond between my family members and things returned to how they used to be..."

"But the possibility of it all happening again keeps crossing my mind."

"And it makes me wonder if the bond I have with you all here will disappear one day, too..."

(Tell him that a bond can be repaired over and over.): "You never hesitate, do you? That's one of your strengths."

(Say that even if a bond does break, it'll never disappear.): "Heh. You're really strong, <player>."

"Sorry for being so fainthearted. Let's start fresh and enjoy the rest of our day."

"I'm feeling a bit more optimistic now thanks to you."

"Maybe there's no such thing as an unbreakable bond."

"But even if our bond is broken someday..."

"We can definitely piece it back together as long as we etch into our hearts..."

"all of the precious memories you and I have together."
