"I'm Snorlax. No, no! I'm the Planner! I don't mean to butt in, but the item Leftovers is important, isn't it?"
Pokémon Black 2 and White 2
  • Before battle
"I'm Snorlax. No, no! I'm the Planner! I don't mean to butt in, but the item Leftovers is important, isn't it? It's pretty useful in battle. Do you want to battle and test it?"
No: "No?! Really? My Pokémon are pretty, though..."
Yes: "I like to win using my favorite Pokémon!"
  • Being defeated
"Ah... I see... That was quite well thought out."
  • After being defeated
"Awww! What great Pokémon! The great number of steps seems to have increased their trust in you... I hope we can battle again tomorrow."
