Tabitha/Quotes

These are Tabitha's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon Ruby

Meteor Falls

"Hehehe! With this Meteorite, Mt. Chimney will..."

"Heh?"

"Hehehe! Even Team Aqua joins us! But it's too much trouble to deal with you all... Heh, it doesn't matter! We've got the Meteorite, so off to Mt. Chimney we go! Hehehe! Be seeing you, you Team Aqua dingbats!"

Mt. Chimney

• Before battle

"Hehehe! So you've come all the way here! But you're too late! I've already delivered the Meteorite from Meteor Falls to the Boss!"

• When defeated

"Hehehe... So I lost... I'm sure glad I never took you on back at Meteor Falls."

• After being defeated

"Hehehe! You might have beaten me, but you don't stand a chance against the Boss! If you get lost now, you won't have to face a sound whipping!"

Magma Hideout

• Before battle

"Hehehe... Got here already, did you? We underestimated you! But this is it! I'm a cut above the Grunts you've seen so far. I'm not stalling for time. I'm going to pulverize you!"

• When defeated

"Hehehe... So, I lost, too..."

• After being defeated

"Hehehe! While I was toying with you, our Boss got through his preparations!"

"Hehehe! Our Boss has already gone on his way to some cave under the sea! If you're going to give chase, you'd better search the big, wide sea beyond Lilycove. But will you find it then? Hehehe!"

Pokémon Emerald

Meteor Falls

"Hehehe! With this Meteorite, Mt. Chimney will..."

"Heh?"

"Hehehe! Even Team Aqua joins us! But it's too much trouble to deal with you all... Heh, it doesn't matter! We've got the Meteorite, so off to Mt. Chimney we go! Hehehe! Be seeing you, you Team Aqua dingbats!"

Mt. Chimney

• Before battle

"Hehehe! So you've come all the way here! But you're too late! I've already delivered the Meteorite from Meteor Falls to the Boss!"

• When defeated

"Hehehe... Even though I've lost, if our leader awakens that thing...

• After being defeated

"Boss, hurry! Give it the Meteorite's energy! Hehehe..."

Magma Hideout

• Before battle

"Hehehe! You made it this far, so I'll tell you! That's right! Up ahead, Groudon is sleeping! Maxie went to Groudon just seconds ago! It's going to awaken real soon! Hehe! Hehehe!"

• When defeated

"Taken down again... Hehe..."

• After being defeated

"...And while you wasted time with me, Maxie should have awakened Groudon..."

Mossdeep Space Center

• If talked to before battle

"Hehehe! We come all the way here to get some fuel, and we're interfered with again! If you're going to mess with us too, we'll take care of you at the same time!"

• When defeated

"I'm with our leader..."

Pokémon Omega Ruby

Meteor Falls

• Before battle

"Hyuh? What have we here? Why has this child suddenly appeared?"

"Ahyahyahya! Isn't this amusing?! Is it really your intention to oppose me, a Team Magma Admin, just the two of you? Mmm... Very well then! I'll show you how terrifying adults can be! Ahyahyahya! I'm going to give you some very thorough coaching!"

• When defeated

"Hyuhn?"

• After being defeated

"Hyuhn?! An unexpected development?!"

"You children! I would like you to stay out of my way! Team Magma's scientific prowess, Mt. Chimney's energy... And the hidden power of the Meteorite! If we combine them all, a super-ancient Pokémon..."

"Hyahya! Even Team Aqua is making an appearance! The odds do not appear to be in my favor..."

"You there! I'll have the Meteorite now!"

"Ahyahya! The Meteorite is in the palm of my hand! Well, well, well... Adios to each and every one of you! At long last I'm off to Mt. Chimney!"

Mt. Chimney

• Before battle

"Hyahyahya?! It's you! You're the one who tried to interrupt me, Tabitha, at Meteor Falls! D-d-do you intend to get in my way once more? Unngh! You're really... really, really, really, really, really, really... really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really... reeeallllyyyy... an obnoxious child, aren't you?! Ahh... Ah... I will...crush you. So that you..never get in my way...again."

• When defeated

"Yet again? Hyuhn!"

• After being defeated

"I knew you would be strong. What a shame, though! The Meteorite we got from Professor Whoever is already in our Boss's hands! Where's the Boss, you ask? Ah, yes, yes, right this way! Oh, I do hope that you can be shown Team Magma's true power! Ahya! Ahyahyahyahya!"

Weather Institute

"Just...what...is this... D-d-did Leader Maxie know that it would happen like this?!"

"Oh, shut it!"

"Just what is going on around here?! Ahyahya! Even I, Tabitha, am feeling all discombobulated. Leader Maxie! What are you trying to do?! ...To the world. ...To us. ...To Team Magma. This can never, ever be forgiven!"

• Before battle

"Ahya. Are you one of my fans? You're that same kid who's always popping up! I can't believe you're even following me around in my private life. Ahyahya! Well, that's all right! Maybe I'l just clear up this intensely unpleasant feeling I have welling up inside of me... By beating you to a pulp!"

• When defeated

"Ahyahya!"

• After being defeated

"Hah... Hah... Ahya... Ahya... Good grief... Today has been absolutely nothing but stress! I can't take it... It's so unpleasant! You better listen, you stress-inducing child. When Leader Maxie's plan has been executed, twilight will fall upon the world. The Primordial Sea will be changed to Desolate Land. In other words, all life... Child! What do you think you can do in the face of that which is to come? I'm looking forward to seeing you rush into action! Ahya! Ahyahyahyahya!"

"The Leader should be headed for Mt. Pyre... Which means I..."

Slateport Harbor

"We are in accord, Leader Maxie... You Grunts, here! Until our Leader and I, your Admin, have made our escape in the submarine, stay here and buy us some time!"

"This way, Leader Maxie... We should make haste."

Seafloor Cavern

"Wait! Maxie!"

"Do stop that now... Please! Maxie! You just don't understand! What Groudon will bring about upon awakening is an end to the world!"

"Ohh... What have you done... Boss... What..."

"Boss?! Maxie?! Just what's happening on the surface?!"

"So the information we received from the Weather Institute was true... Boss Maxie! We'll never get anywhere just standing around here like this! There isn't a moment to spare! We must confirm the situation on the outside!"

"Child! You're coming, too! Hurry up!"

Route 128

"What..."

"Boss... Maxie..."

"Let's go. Boss Maxie..."

Sootopolis City

"Leader Maxie...to that child...?"

"We had actually been preparing that in anticipation of making contact with Groudon... But at this point, it doesn't look like there's any hope of that for us... There's nothing we can do except leave it to you."

"That's true. It is very possible that its energy could be far greater than our calculations show."

"All right! Now is the time for us to carve out a new future with our scientific prowess! For the pride of Team Magma, we will struggle ferociously!"

• After confronting Groudon

"It's as if the uncertainty and fear from moments ago never even existed. My heart feels like it's been softly set at ease..."

"Leader... Without a doubt, you have committed an offense that can never be forgiven. You have wronged not only Team Magma but all living things on this planet, whether great or small. However, that is precisely why you must now set things right. You must continue to atone for the sins you have committed, even at the risk of your own life... To set right the wrongs you've done, without running away in fear—isn't that how an adult accepts responsibility?"

"... Should you find the resolve to do so inside yourself, then I... Team Magma Admin Tabitha... I will serve at your side as counsel forever."

Delta Episode

Team Magma Hideout

"Leader Maxie! Please compose yourself!"

"Could it be?! The child?!"

"Le-leader?!"

"Wh-wh-wh-wh-What is going on here?! Who does she think she is, messing up our base and then giving us the slip?! That can never be forgiven!"

"Leader?"

"What did you say?! I-is that all right?!"

"Acknowledged"

"Cameruptite. Make sure your Camerupt holds on to it tightly."

After completing the episode

"Uwaahhh! This conversation isn't proceeding as expected!"'

"If it has come to this, then I, Tabitha, shall handle this myself! Courtney!"

"Apologize to Leader Maxie!"

"Hurry up! OK?! Just say "Sorry!""

"Ahyahya! And that settles that! Ahyahyahyahya!"

Subsequent visits

"Ahyahya! Listen up, child! Chief Admin will be the title that I, Tabitha, am referred to by in our newly reborn Team Magma!"

"I've successfully made my way past being just any old Admin!"

"Ahyahya! Capable people are quick to succeed! Ahya! Ahyahyahyahya!"

Pokémon Alpha Sapphire

Battle Resort

"Ahyahya! Very well then, Leader Maxie. The time has come for us to..."

"Hummph! Sir?!"

"Hey! I, Tabitha, have only just turned 27! How old do you think I am?! I shall never forgive you!"

"Leader? Is this that child..."

"Ahyahya! So very intriguing!"

"Ahya! And with that, we bid you adios!"

Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Special Demo Version

First adventure

• Before battle

"You there! Oversized brute! Clear the path! We, the mighty Team Magma, will be the ones to obtain that Mega-Evolving Pokémon!"

"Wh-wha-what?! I have never been so humiliated! You compare ME, Tabitha, the next Chief Admin of Team Magma, to a Makuhita?! You'd better at least make it a Hariyama!"

"... I don't understand this brute at all... Frightening... It looks as though I have no choice. I'll give you a good taste of the overwhelming power an Admin wields!"

"Huh? Who is this?!"

"Hm, hm. Seems like that child's here to get in our way. ...Making this no time for me to be picking fights with oversized brutes. My friend, I suggest we call a temporary truce. Let's work together to wipe out this meddling child!"

"...This one is proving to be quite a handful. Let's crush this impudent child!"

"Ahyahya! I pray you don't underestimate me! Admin Tabitha of Team Magma is not about to fall for any last-minute trickery!"

• When defeated

"Hyuhn?!"

• After being defeated

"Ahya! How could this be? For an Admin like me to lose to some child and a silver-haired pretty boy... M-my evaluation from Leader Maxie will surely go down if he learns of this!"

"Remember this moment, child! And you there, pretty boy! Someday, I'll pay you back for this! Ahyahyahya!"

Secret adventure

• Before battle

"You! You're that fool child from before! And now you've found yourself a girl?"

"Why must you always get in my way? You infuriating little pests! This time, I'm going to crush you good and proper!"

• When defeated

"Yet again?! Hyuhn?!"

• After being defeated

"Hah... Hah... Ahyahyah... You are most unpleasant children, indeed. You cannot seem to get enough of making my plans fail... I will retreat for the moment. But I will repay you for this."
