Spikemuth
  • Before battle
"*sigh*... So you're finally here, huh?"
"See, I'm...I'm really not a great Gym Leader. Figured that's why nobody was comin' to challenge me."
"I have good ears, so I overheard the whole thing about the city bein' shut up. When I was alone, it was like my soul was weepin'."
"This is a simple Gym Stadium. We can't even Dynamax our Pokémon, but well... I still hope you enjoy the battle."
"Now then..."
"I'm the Gym Leader of Spikemuth, Piers, the Dark-type user!"
"You wanna challenge me, even though you know you'll lose? Then this song's for you, foolish Trainer!"
"Get ready for a mosh pit with me and my party! Spikemuth, it's time to rock!"
"Everyone, cheer on my Pokémon! Let's do it, Scrafty! Intimidate the opponent!"
"Malamar's gonna mess you all up with its Contrary Ability!"
"Everyone's gonna stink, but who cares! Go, Skuntank! Use your Sucker Punch and Toxic!"
"Time to meet another member of my crew! Face the proud, high roar of my Obstagoon!"
  • Before sending out his last Pokémon
"I don't do encores, get it? Not songs... Not moves... Not Pokémon!"
"Here's a number I had saved just for this! You lot in the stands better cheer me on!"
  • Upon being defeated
"Me an' my team gave it our best. Let's meet up again for a battle some time..."
  • After being defeated
"I'm glad we were able to battle. Seems like my Pokémon feel the same way."
"Here's your Dark Badge."
"Here's a uniform, too... I’ve actually been thinkin' about just sellin' them at my concerts."
"My little sis Marnie's gonna challenge me next, I bet."
"Do you want to go back to the reception area?"
"So you were watchin', Sis... You won't learn anythin' from seein' me lose."
"That right? That reminds me. Marnie, there's somethin' I wanted to tell you."
"I want you to take over the Gym here in Spikemuth as its Gym Leader."
"Good point. In that case, let your big bro see if you have the skill to be a Champion!"
Wyndon
"Kid's sure got a mouth on him, huh? If you were that noisy durin' battle, you'd unleash a whole new level of power, you know."
"Judgin' by appearances? No wonder you lost to your mate."
"If you're lookin' for the Champion, I saw him headin' to Rose Tower."
"Dunno what he's up to, but I ran into him at the monorail platform. He said to tell you that he had somethin' to do at Rose Tower, so he'd be late to your dinner."
"Sheesh... What rude siblings, always so demandin' of others."
"Though I s'ppose... It's a real problem for me, too, if the Finals are held up for any reason. And I don't really hate the two of you little runts. You were good enough to beat me, after all."
"So I think I'll invite Team Yell along, and we'll all have ourselves a bit of fun. Shall we?"
  • Outside the hotel
"We decided that Team Yell will cheer you on, <player>. Let's help out together."
"Tch. This isn't good! But I got this one!"
"<player>! Team Yell's yellin' will handle this!"
"For now, we should try to head to the plaza together, right?"
Yes: "All right, let's all work together and head for Rose Tower."
No: "Hmm. You should be able to get to the plaza yourself, right?"
  • Upon arriving at the plaza
"Let's find Oleana's League staff member. That bad one was wearin' those lame shades, right?"
  • If talked to before finding the League staff member
"That bad League staff member was wearin' some awful shades. And the key to findin’ anyone is to just ask everyone you meet!"
"Seems like nobody's seen that bad League staff member anywhere else. I bet they're hidin' somewhere nearby."
  • After defeating Eric for the second time
"Makes sense for a cornered person to seek out the tightest hidin' place, I guess. Don’t s'ppose you got a box lyin' around?"
  • After defeating Eric for the third time
"Guess that wraps up Oleana's little game. Course, I’m not one to talk, I guess. Team Yell did their fair share of lame tricks... Anyway, let's head to the station."
"Team Yell, go find Hop! We'll corner that League staff member at the station together!"
"You did a crackin' job of cornerin’ that bad League staff member, <player>. Let me sing you a song fittin' of your rockin' deeds!"
"The only thing a humble singer can do is sing a humble song. ♪"
"Maybe I can't cheer someone on just with the tunes I play. ♪"
"Maybe my songs don't make anyone happy. Maybe I can't help. ♪"
"But still the only thing I can do is sing—sing my humble song. ♪"
"<player>! Hop! Now’s your chance! Go! Get outta here!"
"Times like this—when tension and passion run high—remind me of Spikemuth in the old days. Some right wild concerts we had back then. But no encores!"
"Wait, you're still here?"
"You better get goin'! I'll send some support your way with a yell!"
Wyndon Stadium (Champion Cup Locker Room)
"I'd say I aim to win this thing... And I'll do it without usin' Dynamax, to help everyone in Spikemuth reclaim their pride... and to see'em smile once again."
Wyndon Stadium (Champion Cup Locker Room)
"Sis. You shouldn't be forcin' your way in here."
"You got it wrong, Sis. Raihan's just that strong. But I was able to show everyone in the audience how amazin' a proper battle without usin' Dynamax can be."
"Sorry to come in for a chin-wag just before the final match. Raihan's waiting for you on the pitch. We're lookin' forward to a right good battle."
Turffield Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"Hm? You're..."
"What's going on here?" : "Hah! How carefree can you be? You're the new Champion. You're bigger than a Dynamax Pokémon right now."
"The audience and staff already took shelter."
"I'll lend a hand, too. I don't blame the Pokémon, of course, but I'm still just a bit miffed they upstaged me. You come too, bro of the old Champion."
"I don't really know the guy, but I don't think Leon'd be all lost about this. Though he does get actually lost a lot... You comin'?"
"This Dynamax stuff... No matter how many times I see it, I still don't like it."
"Seems there was some discord in the harmony between Trainer and Pokémon."
"Who are these guys? Spectators and staff should've been evacuated."
"What?"
"You think I'd put ay faith in words from rude little punks like you?"
"Calm down, Hop. You don't gotta act so hard."
"Yeah, and they could be leadin' us to a trap. It's a bad idea to run in unprepared."
"Good. Let's all calm down for a sec. Thanks to them runnin' their mouths, we know their goal is to force Pokémon to Dynamax."
  • If talked to again
"How're those two makin' Pokémon Dynamax without any Dynamax Bands? "
Turffield (Sordward and Shielbert)
"I'm an ex-Gym Leader. I can be wherever I want. It's not that weird! More importantly, you said there were Dynamax Pokémon at other stadiums?"
"I'm worried about Marnie!"
"Ah... I see."
"Heh. That's the spirit, Champion."
"We'll leave the researchin' to this, er... Sonia, was it? We should get to the other stadiums and help out."
  • If talked to again
"I'll catch up to you in a bit, so head out first. I'll leave it up to you to decide which stadium we handle first."
Hulbury Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"We know the situation. Are the staff and spectators all right?"
"Tch. Leave us alone."
Motostoke Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"Don't think we really got the time for a friendly chin-wag."
"Yeah. That'd be why we're here."
  • After receiving a phone call from Sonia
"What're those two doin' goin' after Wishing Stars?"
"He really doesn't think anythin' through... Sure does make him seem a proper fool. Nah, guess the word would be "reckless." We're headed to the Pokémon Lab next, right? Guess I'll stick by you till we see this through."
Wedgehurst (Sordward and Shielbert)
  • Inside of the Pokémon Lab
"That's right! You lost a battle, but don't lose that rockin' spirit!"
"Oi. The two of you teamed up, too."
  • After Sonia's assistant handed over the Wishing Stars to Sordward and Shielbert
  • If talked to again
"I think she's gonna need some cheerin' from her real friends."
  • Outside of the Pokémon Lab
"We were tryin' to be considerate, but..."
"Heh. Hehehe... You've got some guts."
  • If replied "That's awful!"
"Indeed. What an awful thing to do to Pokémon."
  • After detecting more Dynamaxing at the stadiums
"If there's trouble at the stadiums, then Marnie could be in a real bad way!"
"*ahem* Righto..."
Stow-on-Side Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"Eh, somethin' like that. How're things lookin'?"
"Things'll probably get even tougher from here. We still got three more stadiums where there's some Dynamax Pokémon runnin' wild. Let's up the tempo."
Ballonlea Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"What an obnoxius Gym Leader. The next Gym Challenge is shapin' up to really be somethin'."
"Yeah, yeah. As expected of a wise 88-year-old granny, I guess."
  • After defeating Bede
"If you both are gonna keep talkin', how 'bout I fetch you a nice cuppa?"
"Looks like there's two Pokémon Stadiums left to check."
Circhester Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"Who d'you think you're talkin' to, then? We're here to help, not be helped."
"Looks like he ain't used to compliments. Look, he's got a grin wider than a Meowth."
"There's only one Pokémon Stadium with Dynamax trouble left. Let's finish this already."
Hammerlocke Stadium (Sordward and Shielbert)
"Seems Wishing Stars power is bein' used for some evil purpose."
"Things might actually go better this time if we split up our little band."
"All that's left is to catch those sword and shield weirdos."
"Wasn't Professor Sonia s'pposed to be lookin' into where those two might be?"
  • After receiving a phone call from Sonia
"We're already at Hammerlocke Stadium... The door to the Energy Plant should be right down the hall. Guess we should get goin'."
Energy Plant (Sordward and Shielbert)
"What's with these weirdos? They really creep me out."
"I get it... So all those sudden Dynamax Pokémon from before were just your little experiments."
"Should we head up?"
  • At the Tower Summit
"I was hopin' we could just calm it down like we did with the others. But our opponent is a Legendary Pokémon. If you're thinkin' about catchin' it, think again."
"As expected of the Champion... You took complete control of the situation. Plus it looks like that Pokémon is waitin' for you."
"Ugh... Why should I go expectin' those two to start learnin' some manners now?"
"If you really wanna atone, what's with that posh, superior attitude? Ah, whatever..."
"<player>, I think I understand why you became the Champion. But...please don't go callin' me anymore. Seems like I'm only gettin' called out when you're in some sticky situation."
Slumbering Weald (Sordward and Shielbert)
  • After defeating Hop
"They didn't get the chance to properly apologize yet."
"Oi! Don't go runnin' off on your own."
Wyndon Stadium (Champion Cup Rematch)
  • Before battle
"I'll get the audience pumped up, even without usin' Dynamax!"
  • Upon being defeated
"That's it?! Piers doesn't do encores, but I admit I'm tempted right now!"
  • After being defeated
"Battlin' you makes me wanna try out a new battle style. Maybe a Pokémon battle and a gig combined. What do you think, huh? Could sound battles be a thing?"
Isle of Armor Random Encounters
  • When first spoken to
"Gah! When I run into you, it's usually a sign things are about to get sticky..."
"I've got my own business to take care of, so I won't be hangin' around with you this time."
"Seems like a lot of different Pokémon make this place their habitat — just like the Wild Area."
"I'm no Leon, but I'm really gettin' turned around in this forest. Might just call a Flying Taxi, if it comes to that."
"That red tower's dead cool lookin', innit? But it's givin' off a real Fightin'-type vibe, so I'm keepin' my distance..."
"It's so dim and cool in here... Feels perfect! Sounds get pretty muffled, though. Not the greatest concert acoustics."
"Look at this — a deep blue ocean of pain... I'm sure if Marnie were here, she'd be whinin' about wantin' to have a swim. Me, though, I don't like swimmin' much. I hate gettin' sunburnt."
"Alone we stand, Obstagoon and me, with these silent sands for company... Heh. Think this place just gave me the idea for my next song."
"It's just too sunny out today. I'm not havin' it. I don't mind the humidity, but the heat's all the way up to eleven."
  • During overcast conditions
"You'd think the moves of Dark types would get wicked strong on gloomy, gray days like this, yeah? But you'd be wrong."
  • During rain or thunderstorms
"Look at you. All full of beans, even in this soakin' wet rain. Hope Marnie brought an umbrella if she's out and about..."
"Seein' a sandstorm takes me back to battlin' Raihan in the Finals."
"We could take cover in the fog, then lash out suddenly with Sucker Punch... I'm thinkin' up ways we could win without needin' to Dynamax."
Wyndon Stadium (Galarian Star Tournament)
Partnering with Piers
  • In the locker room before the first round
"Wantin' to partner with someone like me... I won't pretend like I know what you're up to. Dynamaxin' my Pokémon's still off the table, but I'll do whatever else I can in this battle."
  • In the locker room before the second round
"I'm not even a Gym Leader anymore or anything. But thanks to you, it seems like I'm still gettin' in plenty of tough battles, huh?"
  • In the locker room before the last round
"Well. Looks like we made it all the way to the end. So what? Nothing to worry about. This'll be a walk in the park for you and me."
  • On the field before the first round battle
"Hope you're ready to fling that Poké Ball."
  • On the field before the second round battle
"Time for round two."
  • On the field before the last round battle
"I guess the top of the pile ain't a bad spot to aim for."
  • Winning the Tournament
"Hey, winnin' with you's not bad. D'you think the crowd wants an encore? I wouldn't mind makin' an exception to my rule, just this once."
