Melony/Quotes

These are Melony's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series games

Pokémon Shield

Circhester Stadium

• Before battle

"I am Melony. As you can clearly see, I've assembled a team of all Ice-type Pokémon. You! You aren't sore all over from falling in a hole or two, are you? Even if you are, I'm not going to hold back! / Well, fancy that! You made it all the way to me without falling in a hole. If I'm not careful, you could sweep my feet right out from under me. All righty, I suppose we should get started. You won't be able to escape when I freeze you solid. And after that... Well, you'll see. I think you'll find my battle style is quite severe. "

• In battle

Upon sending out her last Pokémon: "Even if it cracks, ice is still ice! I'll show you what I mean!"

Upon Gigantamaxing Lapras: "Come now—go on and Gigantamax. I'll let you freeze everything solid."

Upon first using Lapras's G-Max Resonance: "My partner's signature move invites you to a subzero world!"

Upon being defeated: "I just want to climb into a hole... Well, I guess it'd be more like falling from here, right?"

• After being defeated

"You... You're pretty good, huh? Of course seeing my Pokémon lose is sad, but to meet someone so young with such ability is quite grand. Here, take this sparkling Ice Badge!"

"For some reason, I can't help but imagine my son challenging you after you become the Champion. If that time comes...give him a right thrashing, would you?"

Wyndon Stadium

• During the Champion Cup

• If talked to in the locker room

"I won't be putting on a showy battle for the crowd. I'll show everyone what a severe battle truly is."

• During Champion Cup rematches

• Before battle

"So what are your top 10 favorite Pokémon?... That's just how I break the ice. Are you ready for a Pokémon battle now?"

• In battle

Upon being defeated: "I think you took breaking the ice a little too literally..."

• After being defeated

"It helps inspire my Gym Trainers if I participate in this tournament from time to time! My only choice is to keep aiming for that grand victory!"

Circhester Stadium

• In the post-game

"Get to safety, you three!"

"Oh, it's you three. I was a little too into things and didn't notice right away, I'm afraid."

"There appear to be no less than four Dynamax Pokémon. I was just going over a plan on how to handle things. With all these strong Trainers together, I'm sure we can work something out here! Are you all ready, then? Let's head to the pitch!"

• After defeating Dynamax Froslass

"Phew! Is everyone feeling all right?"

"Ohoho! Of course you had no problem, <player>! You really seem like a reliable Trainer, too, Hop!"

"I'll take care of the Pokémon we battled. No need for anyone to worry. <player>. It's not much of a reward, but have a copy of my League Card."

"Give me a call if anything happens! Don't overdo it out there!"

Isle of Armor

• When first spoken to

"Goodness, fancy meeting you here! Curious about my top-secret training regime, are you?"

"Well, that's a shame, because I can't let you see! You'll have to wait just a tad longer."

• If found in the Fields of Honor

"I got an Armor Pass from someone I know, so I thought... why not take the chance to raise my Pokémon in some fresh scenery?"

• If found in the Forest of Focus

"It's so damp in here and the heat's unbearable! Perhaps my Circhester outfit was a touch too heavy after all."

• If found on Challenge Road

"Quite the view up here, isn't it? Look how far you can see! A shame you can't make out Circhester, but I suppose that's only reasonable."

• If found in the Courageous Cavern

"Just now I slipped and fell on my rear, but I wasn't a bit hurt. Thank goodness I layered up properly!"

• If found on Challenge Beach or the Training Lowlands

"Ahaha! The moment we get near the water, Lapras looks ready for a swim. Perhaps it's time for a break from training."

• If found in the Potbottom Desert

"Whoever named this place was spot on—it's like standing in the bottom of a curry pot! A fine place to train oneself to face the harshest of environments with a stiff upper lip!"

• During harsh sunlight or clear skies

"It gets so hot in the Isle of Armor sunlight—it makes me break out in sweat! I just want to spend the daytime clinging to my nice, cool Lapras."

• During overcast conditions

"It's quite gloomy with all these clouds, isn't it? Take care you don't trip over a rock or a Slowpoke lying around."

• During rain or thunderstorms

"What a cool, refreshing rain! Lapras is loving the chance to soak in it, too!"

• During a sandstorm

"Goodness me, <player>! Isn't this sand something? Thanks to my hat and muffler, though, it's nothing too awful."

• During foggy conditions

"I suspect you might find some unusual Pokémon in mist-erious weather like this!"

Wyndon Stadium (Galarian Star Tournament)

• In the lobby before the invitational tournament

"Having you battling beside me would be very heartening, of course... But I'd rather face you as a rival, Champion."

Partnered with Melony

• If talked to in the locker room

• Before the first round

"Looks like someone needs to chill. You want the power of my ice to slide to victory? Don't worry-- we'll have these weak opponents trembling before us!"

• Before the second round

"Just what I'd expected of you, Champion! This is going to be fun, battling with you. Let's bring the temperature down even lower. I won't lose here, so take care you don't freeze!"

• Before the final round

"You've done well, battling so many times in a row. One more match till we win the whole thing! You sure you have it in you? I won't let you live it down if you drop the ball because you're too tired!"

• On the field

• Before the first round, randomly selected

"Come on, <player>! Let's win this, nice and cool!"

"Come on now! Back straight! Chin up! Yes, that's the posture of a Champion!"

• Before the second round, randomly selected

"They may be all fired up for battle, but we'll freeze them solid—passion and all."

"Now, which Pokémon do you think I should knock out first?"

• Before the final round, randomly selected

"You and I, we can do this! One of them's all yours, love!"

"One more battle, and we've got this in the bag! We can do this together!"

• Upon winning the tournament

• First time

"What a strong performance all around! This victory was a true team effort. Now, just remember—even if we're on opposite sides next time, don't you hold back one jot!"

• Subsequent victories

"Hee! Looks like we went and won again! Seems like you might grow rather attached to having me as a partner if this carries on, hmm?"

Facing against Melony

• In battle

After sending out first Pokémon

With Allister: "What better team-up to make our opponents shiver than Ice and Ghost types?"

With Avery: "Oh, you'll embarrass me with that "Lady" talk. Anyway, I'll leave the Fighting types to you!"

With Nessa: "What say we give this stadium a nice cooling off, Nessa, dear?"

With Raihan: "Hello there, Raihan! I look forward to battling alongside such a mighty Gym Leader!"

Upon sending out her last Pokémon: "The final freeze is the deepest! Get ready to shiver down to your bones!"

Upon Gigantamaxing Lapras: "Looks like an ice age is looming... How many minutes do you think you'll last?"

Upon first using Coalossal's G-Max Resonance: "Now watch how your partner Melony uses her ice, and feel the chill creep in!"

Upon being defeated: "What a powerful team! It gives me the deepest of chills."

Field conversations (invitational tournament, against the player)

• With Allister

"Allister! No whining! Now's the time to stand tall—understood?"

Field conversations (subsequent tournaments, with or against the player)

• Against Allister

"Hello there, Allister! Guess we're on opposite teams this time."

• Against Raihan

"I think it's best if I focus on your dragon Pokémon, Raihan."

• Against Shielbert

"Well, aren't we silver-tongued! But don't think you can sweet-talk me into going easy on you!"

• Against Nessa

"A battle with you, Nessa? I'd better brace for a long haul..."

"Since we're both Ice-type users, we get along well."

"since a certain someone is too busy with Rock types..."

"You're all practicing cooking, right? Do your best so your feelings reach those who are special to you!"

"Now, I should get going so I don't get in the way."

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Melony

• Off-screen, as "???"

"Oh my—both of you are exhausted already?"

• After appearing, as Melony

"That's not enough to become a Gym Trainer at my Gym!"

"We'd only just started. They lack tenacity."

"Hmm? Oh, it's you, <player>. Are you here to train, too?"

Yes! I'm gonna do my best!: "I like your determination!"

Yes! But it's kind of cold...: "That's what makes it so great!"

"Ever since I arrived on Pasio, I've been training here every day."

"Training in a harsh environment will make us even stronger."

"Thanks to that, I think I've become even more disciplined than before."

"I want to teach everyone on Pasio what a severe battle truly is."

"Of course, I'm thinking of teaching you too, <player>!"

Bring it on!: "That's an answer I like to hear!"

Please go easy on me...: "I'm not going to hold anything back, you know."

"Anyways, when I see a young Trainer with potential like you, I remember my son."

"His name is Gordie."

"I trained Lapras so I could eventually pass her on to him."

"But instead of becoming an Ice-type Trainer, Gordie chose Rock type."

"We had a huge fight when I found out. It was quite a mess."

"Ever since, I haven't talked to Gordie much."

You're not gonna reconcile?: "Well, we did fight, but we don't hate each other."

Oh, I see.: "But I don't really mind it much now."

"Plus, if that's what he's decided, I don't plan to deny the path he's chosen."

"But as his mum—and his coach—I do think about some things."

"I'm planning to train a talented Ice-type Trainer and have them battle Gordie."

"But I haven't found the right Trainer yet."

"Wait a minute..."

"Would you be interested in becoming an Ice-type Trainer?"

"It'll be fine! The training might be hard at first, but you'll gradually learn to enjoy the chilling freeze of ice."

"I'm joking, dear... *chuckle*"

• During sync background preview

"My partner's signature move invites you to a subzero world!"

• Random conversation

"Being on a three-person team is a new experience for me. It's pretty fun, but I'm having trouble getting used to it."

"The other day, I almost froze my team member."

• Random conversation

"There's a lot of young talent here. It feels great to be around!"

"All righty! I wonder if anyone here can compete with how tough I am."

• Random conversation

"I like teaming up with other Ice-type Trainers. It lets me battle without holding back."

"But even if a Flying-type or Dragon-type Pokémon Trainer is on my team, I'm not going to hold back!"

• Random conversation

"I think my battle style is quite severe."

"I don't just attack—I use tactics too, when needed."

"My battles may not always be the flashy kind that audiences seem to like... But it is what it is."

• Random conversation

"You must be getting used to what a severe battle is like, <player>."

"But don't push yourself too hard. Being disciplined is one thing, but overworking yourself is quite different!"

• Random conversation

"Ice-type Pokémon have powerful attacks, but they're not so good at defending."

"Even if you think you're in a battle you're sure to win, the tables could turn in an instant if you let your guard down!"

"It may sound severe, but I enjoy battles like that."

• If spoken to again

"If you were to visit my Gym, you seem like the type to walk right into its pitfalls."

"I want to teach the importance of keeping your guard up at all times. That's why my Gym is full of traps!"

• Random conversation

"My son Gordie is a Rock-type Gym Leader. He's a bit of a rebel, that one."

"Ever since we had a big fight, we haven't had the chance to talk much."

"But I'm still his number-one fan, and I'll always be watching over him."

• If spoken to again

"If there's something you want to do, just believe in yourself and do it."

"Don't worry about failing. For some things, you'll never know the outcome unless you try."

"If you're in trouble, you can always let me know."
