Quotes

Pokémon League

• Upon entering Flying Chamber

"So, here you are... Why don't we see who the winds favor today, you...or me?"

First battle

• Before battle

"My name is Kahili. A few years ago, I was a champion of the island challenge, too. Just like you. I've been traveling the world to improve my skill as both a Trainer and as a golfer. When I heard that they'd made a Pokémon League in my own home region, I came flying back to serve Alola. Have a look at my fantastic Flying-type team!"

• Upon being defeated

"It's frustrating to me as a member of the Elite Four, but it seems your strength is the real deal."

• After being defeated

"You know...I think you'll bring a breath of fresh air to the Alola battle scene. I was honestly annoyed when Kukui kept pestering me to come here, but I'm glad I did."

Rematch battle

• Before battle

"So, you came to battle me again! If I beat you, the number one ranked Trainer in Alola, then I’ll be ready to take on the world! I’m coming for you, <player>!"

• Upon being defeated

"This feeling of frustration that is swelling within me... I will use it to propel my growth!"

• After being defeated

"That battle was worthy of being number one in Alola... Maybe even number one in the world! But next time, I’ll win. You’ll see!"

• General afterword

(If chosen first) "There are three more members of the Elite Four. And every one of them is a top-class Trainer."

(If chosen second) "There are two more members of the Elite Four... And I wouldn’t be surprised if you have a hard time deciding which one to take on next."

(if chosen third) "There is just one member of the Elite Four left. I hope you enjoy the transcendent kind of battle you only find at the top of the Pokémon League!"

(If chosen last) "Do you wonder what lies beyond the Elite Four? Go. See with your own eyes what awaits you."

Entering Hall of Fame

"Now we’re all going to be aiming for your seat. I hope you’re ready for some rivals."

Hano Grand Resort

"<Player>? What are you doing at my place?"

"Oh, my dad owns the Hano Grand Resort, so... Anyway. You’re the Champion now, right? So are you out there training every day?"

Of course!: "Just what I would expect of a Champion! That is very wise thinking. I’m a top-ranking player in the golf world, and that is because I still practice every day."

Uhhh...what?: "You’re the Champion, aren’t you? I’m a top-ranking player in the golf world, and that is because I still practice every day!"

"I think it’s important to keep training every day, even if it’s for just a bit. I’ll give you this. It should help you aim for even loftier goals!"

"Many Flying-type Pokémon are fast, right? That’s why I use Trick Room to up my handicap. It forces me to train in battles where the slower Pokémon get to move first. I should get going, though. I’ve got to get back to my daily training regimen. Ten more hours to go today."
