"What?"

"Never."

"Foolishness!"

"I'll battle you. You can thank me later."

"What idiocy! You need to learn a lesson."

"Right!"

"You there!"

"Hear my words!"

"Ugh..."

"How dare you!"

"Impossible..."

"Congratulations, I suppose."

"Don't let me down!"

"Incredible!"

"Hmm."

"Ohoho."

"I've had enough."

Main Story Chapter 5 - The High-Flying Girl

• Dead Set on Victory

"What do you know--another win for me. Now, hand over that badge."

"How can you praise your Pokémon after a crushing defeat like that?! Pokémon aren't friends--they're tools. No wonder you lost."

"Winning is all that matters! How can you just smile and accept defeat like that?! You should feel terrible!"

"<Player>... You again..."

"Why must the universe conspire to irritate me... What are you doing here?"

"Don't tell me you amateurs are trying to enter the Pokémon Masters League..."

How did you know?: "You can't be serious... Of all the ridiculous, insolent, pathetic--! I knew you'd be a pain the moment I saw that hat of yours..."

You got a problem with that?: "Excuse me?! Of all the ridiculous, insolent, pathetic--! I knew you'd be a pain in the neck the moment I saw that hat of yours..."

"Never mind that... It doesn't matter anyway. I shall crush you under my heel here and now!"

"A one-on-one battle, just you and me. None of you interfere!"

"I shall teach you a lesson even a fool like you will remember."

"What's wrong? Is that all you've got? I didn't even get to enjoy myself!"

"Bow before the victor, amateur... And don't forget, I always win!"

"Bwahaha! See? I win, you lose, and all is right in the universe."

"Obviously failure begets failure... You amateurs belong together! We're done here. Let's go."

Main Story Chapter 19 - Rematch vs. Lear!

• More Precious than Victory

"Well, well! Look who decided to show up. I thought you'd get cold feet, but apparently you have some guts after all."

"Stop! I won't hear it! You're the ones who tried my patience in the first place!"

"This is the end of the PML for you! My...uh...Staraptor and I will make you wish you'd never signed up to compete!"

"And what a sad Krookodile it was! To let that battle end in a draw... I have no need for a Pokémon too weak to follow my commands!"

"The only Pokémon suitable for me is one that can follow my commands without question and WIN!"

"Silence! How dare you judge my decisions! You have no right to lecture me. Now prepare to fight!"

"Huh? What is it?"

"Just who do you think you're talking to right now?"

"I never asked for your advice or your support! I shall stomp these weaklings all by myself!"

"Is that understood?! Don't let me hear you try to advise me on this subject again!"

"Now, it's time we start this. Or end this, rather..."

"Ugh! Bonds... Teamwork... You still have the nerve to speak about that nonsense in front of me?!"

"Fine! I'll show you once and for all how ridiculous all of it really is!"

• Until Next We Battle

"Th-this is ridiculous..."

"This is NOT happening! Unbelievable! It's pure nonsense! How could I lose?!"

"Not once...but twice! That pest in the red hat was one thing, but to be beaten by...by a bunch of amateurs..."

"My commands were more precise, my Pokémon was stronger... I had the upper hand in practically every way! How...how did this happen?!"

"How in the world did I loooooose?!"

"How...how can stupid things like that make a difference to who wins and who loses? It doesn't make sense!"

"?!"

"Silence!"

"None of that is of any use to me! With my skill and unrivaled discipline when it comes to training, there's nothing I can't do!"

"That goes for the PML, too! I and I alone will crush every last incompetent weakling in the running!"

"That's why I founded this entire tournament in the first place--to prove that the power of one man is stronger than any stupid bond!"

"And yet..."

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"N-no... You can't be serious!"

Main Story Interlude 3 - The Truth about Pasio

• King of Solitude

"Same... Those wretched Team Break thugs! Where'd they manage to hide it?!"

"I had no choice! If our...secret friend...falls into the wrong hands, the PML will be the least of our worries."

"Besides, if I'd been there, all that sappy talk of bonds and friendship would have made me gag."

"No! Never you mind! And where in the world is Sawyer, anyway? He should have been here by now!"

"You had better be! Those goons could be summoning all sorts of terrible Pokémon as we speak! Do NOT keep me waiting again!"

"Let's go! We've got to head to the next hideout!"

"It's time to take Hoopa back from those Team Break thieves... We cannot let them get away with this!"

"You there! Whoever you are--come out and show yourself!"

"You! Aren't you--?"

"Yes, I'm aware. What is he doing here?"

"Ugh!"

"Tsk! You think you know everything, don't you?"

"Silence! I told you not to bring that up!"

"Whatever. I don't have to stand here and listen to this twerp! Rachel, Sawyer, we're done here! Come on!"

"Enlist...help, you say?"

"How dare you! Just because of what happened in that last battle, you DARE insinuate that I am weak?!"

"That was a fluke! A FLUKE, I tell you! I have no need for help--I have more than enough strength to handle this alone!"

"The last time I checked, I was the one in charge here. Everyone else can simply shut their mouth and do as I say!"

"I am in line to become king, and what a king says is absolute! No one is above a king!"

"Do you think I'm a fool? What does it matter what I would or wouldn't do? If I don't become king, I'll never gain recognition."

"If I can't become king, then why am I even here?!"

"Hmph! It's as if you all live to infuriate me! Rachel, Sawyer, we're leaving! Do NOT make me say it again!"

Main Story Interlude 4 - The Once-Charming Prince

• Rachel, Sawyer and Lear

"You nitwits don't really think you stand a chance against me, do you?"

"Donphan, go! Wipe the floor with these--"

"Save it! You two would only get in the way!"

"Gaaah! Enough already!"

"Go, Donphan! Now!"

"Hmph. That's right! Come at me with whatever Pokémon you like--you'll lose just the same!"

"Did you not hear me the first hundred times, Sawyer? I'm--"

"Hmm?"

"Ugh! That Goody-Two-shoes again?"

"I'm going on ahead. You two stay here and deal with him!"

"Don't you dare follow me!"

"Bwahahaha! What a bunch of weaklings! I can see why you called yourselves Team Break!"

"Ugh. Still hovering around, are you?"

"Well, since you're here, take a look at my work!"

"See?! Look how many sync pairs I took down all on my own!"

"No sync moves, no outside help--just me and my own power!"

"Has it finally sunk in that I'm fine without your precious teamwork?"

"In fact, I'm BETTER without it! Having others around would just hold me back!"

"What's with you, changing the subject all of a sudden?"

"Well, I'm in a good mood, so I'll deign to answer your question!"

"What kind of king will I be? The strongest king of all!"

"I'll be so strong, I'll put down all the little upstarts like you!"

"Just wait and see! Once I grow even more powerful, there'll be no one who can defeat me!"

"Not <player>, and not that twerp with the red hat! I'll clean all their clocks and become the Champion of Pasio!"

"Then I'll claim my crown to go with my title as the strongest Trainer around!"

"Bwahahahaaa!"

"Rachel! Sawyer! Time to march! Hoopa wasn't here, so we're off to the next hideout!"

"What, did I stutter? Get a move on!"

"What did you say?!"

"Why, you..."

"Do you understand what you're saying?"

"Wha--?!"

"Rachel... Sawyer..."

"F-fine! Do as you like! I never needed you two anyway!"

"... ... ..."

Main Story Interlude 5 - What Makes a King

• Cheren's Intervention

"If you're that concerned, why don't you turn back around and go see for yourself? I'm sick of you following me around!"

"Fool! It doesn't matter how strong they are--I'm more than enough to handle them!"

"I never needed you in the first place! That goes for Rachel and Sawyer, too!"

"Hmph. Big words from a pipsqueak running on borrowed power."

"You stay out of it! I'll take this trash out myself!"

"Guh! You put up a real fight for a pipsqueak."

"But too bad--victory's mine!"

"Hmph! What a pathetic battle. I can't stand looking at those losers!"

"Obviously! That guy was strutting around all high and mighty and couldn't even face up to the fact that he lost!"

"That's nothing if not pathetic!"

"What did you say?!"

"Shut up! I'm nothing like those vermin. They just scurry around in packs and get up to no good!"

"Those around me? What are you talking about?"

"Wha--?!"

"Ngh!"

"You're wrong! I've gotten to where I am by doing everything myself..."

"and that's not about to change now!"

"I'll stick with the only partner I can trust--myself!"

"And I'll become the strongest king there is--all on my own!"

"I--"

"... ... ..."

"It's been a long, long time since anyone dared insult me so brazenly."

"You and I will battle right here, right now! I'm going to crush you so completely, you'll never dare open that upstart mouth at me again!"

"Don't forget--you're dealing with the man who will become the strongest king of all!"

"Don't you fail me, Donphan! Put them in their place!"

"I-impossible... How can this be?"

"I lost? I lost...again?"

"And to you, of all people?!"

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"What truly matters, huh..."

"Rachel... Sawyer..."

"And..."

"What?!"

"Huh? What's this?"

"You'll return Hoopa?"

"The crown..."

"... ... ..."

"... ... ..."

"Quiet."

"I'm going to be king! If I can just do that, then there'll be no need for me to change!"

"Just you wait, Team Break!"

Main Story Interlude 6 - Royally Alone

• A Less-Than-Perfect Reunion

"I'm going to be king. Everything I've done is for that purpose. If I could just become king, I could have everything that I desire! Status! Prestige! Power! Loyal Pokémon! Retainers! Whatever I want! There's no need for ME to change! Yes...that's right. I just need to become king. Then all will be mine. Even what "truly matters," like that kid was blabbering about..."

"Ugh! What am I saying? I've gone and let that brat get into my head. All I have to do is become king. That will solve all my problems. If I could only become king!"

"Ah, there you are. The rude peasant with no respect for royalty who called me out here. Let's battle and get this over with already so I can take back my Hoopa."

"Tsk! I should have known this was nothing more than a trap!"

"I don't need them! I can just command three Pokémon at once! What are you waiting for? Bring it on! I'll show you that you pip-squeaks are no match for me—no matter how many of you there are!"

"Impossible!"

"No! This isn't right..."

"Oof! I...lost again? To these fools? I'm supposed to become...the strongest king of all..."

(several years earlier)

"*sniffle* *sniffle*

"I don't wanna do this anymore! All of this hard training and studying every day is too much! I don't even wanna be king if this is what it takes. Why are you making me do this, Father?"

"*sniffle* *sniffle*"

"Where is everybody? Rachel...Sawyer... Mother..."

"Wh-what?! Who's there? I don't see anyone... Was it my imagination?"

"Ahhh!"

"Wh-who are you?! What do you want with me?! I'm royalty, you know! A prince! If you do anything bad to me, my family will hear of it!"

"They'll come running... to save me..."

"... ... ..."

"Ahhh! Wh-what are you doing?! Silly tricks like that aren't enough to scare me! I'm..."

"Ahhhhhh!"

"That's enough! I won't be scared by your tricks anymore, OK?!"

"Wow... What a beautiful stone."

"What? You want to give it to me?"

"I guess you aren't a bad Pokémon after all."

"Hey... Would you be my..."

(back to current)

"Ugh... I was...dreaming? Why would I dream of my past at a time like this? I'm not a weakling anymore. Wait... Where am I?"

"I know that voice... You're the one who set up this ridiculous kidnapping!"

"Tsk! Does he think he can get away with this?! I can't believe I lost to those fools... I'm supposed to become the strongest king of all! ... ... ..."

"Who's there?! Show yourself! What?! That's... Hoopa!"

Main Story Interlude 7 - Shining Bonds

• The End of the PML

(several years earlier)

"Is that...Rachel and Sawyer?"

"Rachel... Sawyer..."

"Right..."

"*pant pant*"

"I...I know, but—"

"I..."

"But this is where Hoopa—"

"... ... ... Yes, ma'am..."

"... ... ... I won't be able to see Hoopa anymore... I'll be all alone... Again... Why does it have to be so hard? Why won't anybody help me? No one understands. Not Rachel... Not Sawyer... Who am I supposed to depend on? ... ... ... No one's ever been there for me. I'm alone. Maybe...maybe I don't need anyone's help! There's only one person in this world I can truly depend on— Me! And only me!"

(back to current)

"Ugh... I've been stuck stewing here so long. I'm starting to dredge up the past. This is all your fault, you know! You just had to go and get yourself kidnapped by those fools, didn't you?"

"Tch. Nothing to say for yourself, huh? These buffoons must have worked you hard to have stamped out that eternal cheekiness of yours. I won't feel sorry for you! It's your own fault for letting them capture you!"

"Tsk... S-seriously! You won't get any sympathy from me! If you hadn't disobeyed me and run off unprotected, this never would have happened. But no—you never listen to a word I say! You never have!"

(flashback)

"I think this is it...the beach where we first met. After all these years, I hope it still lives around here..."

"Ow! What was that?!"

"Hoopa! You're actually here! You... Wait—did you just drop that on my head?! I'm a prince, you know! You can't just go around hitting me with things! That sort of behavior could be considered a crime! Inexcusable!"

"As punishment for your rude conduct, you will cooperate with me on a new project I'm starting. I'm calling it the Pokémon Masters League!"

(back to present)

"Remember that day in the forest?

(flashback)

"Hmph. Where I found it is irrelevant. Starting today, this little trickster is going to help us ramp up the excitement for the PML! Hoopa, show these two a taste of your power! I know just who to summon first—that pesky upstart with the stupid hat! I'm going to crush that kid on the battlefield this time!"

"Hnnnn..."

"HOOPAAAA!"

(back to present)

"Every. Single. Time! You've caused nothing but trouble for me with your cheeky little tricks! After all we've been through, you haven't changed a single bit! If you'd just obeyed my orders for once, none of this would have..."

"... ... ..."

"No... That's not why any of this happened. The problem isn't that you haven't changed... It's that...I have. I wanted to grow stronger—I wanted to protect myself. More than anything else, I wanted to become king. Instead, I got crushed battle after battle, I distanced myself from my retainers, and I wound up getting captured by Team Break. I probably don't deserve to be king anymore."

"You again..."

"... ... ... I'm not interested in hearing your sob story. Why don't you just get to the point? You're not here to chitchat, are you?"

"... ... ..."

"...What?"

"... ... ..."

"... ... ... It sounds like this is the end of the PML no matter what I choose. I couldn't even participate in my quarterfinal matches yesterday, so my chance to win the tournament is gone. I called myself the strongest Trainer of all and then got completely crushed by you lowlifes. And on top of all that, I ruined things with my retainers. My father will probably never hand down the crown to me now. I have nothing left. Nothing. ... ... ... All right."

"I'll do what you asked. Let's hurry up and get this over w—"

"Hoopa? Wait! Hoo—"

Battle Villa

• Special Battle Villa intro

"Hahahaha! Welcome to the magnificent halls of my Battle Villa, new guests!"

"Oh... It's you, <player>. I should have known you and your foolish friends would show up here eventually."

"Hmph! Participate in the challenge, if you like. You have no chance of winning, so I really couldn't care less what you do!"

"IF by some miracle you do end up climbing the ranks, I'll give you a reward... A prize more grand than the likes of you could even imagine!"

Story Event - Summer Superstars

• One Summer's Day

"Hmm... The sync pairs seem to be less motivated lately. Maybe the heat is getting to them..."

"Pathetic fools! What's the point of me rising to the top if all the sync pairs are weaklings?!"

"Hmph. So be it. I'll just have to come up with something else to make Pasio famous that isn't Pokémon battles."

"Some new attractions ought to bring in strong sync pairs!"

"I've got to come up with something special that'll breathe new life into Pasio and generate a bunch of publicity!"

"Rachel! Can't you see I'm trying to think? Knock off that humming already!"

"We're surrounded by water! You can play in it whenever you want! And festivals? Singing? Utter nonsense!"

"It's that kind of ridiculous carefree attitude that's making all the sync pairs--"

"Wait a minute... Maybe it's not so ridiculous after all!"

"Excellent work, Rachel! Ha ha ha ha!"

• The Sync Pair Music Festival!

"Ladies and gentlemen! I'm glad to see you all enjoying yourselves at the Sync Pair Music Festival!"

"But...need I remind you?"

"Pasio was created to determine which sync pair is the strongest of all!"

"With that in mind, I hereby declare that a contest will be held..."

"A contest to decide which sync pairs reign supreme as a musical act! I present...the Pasio Superstar Competition!"

"You'll all form teams and compete for first place by playing music with your partner Pokémon!"

"Those who rise above the rest in the categories of musical sense and group composition will be crowned Pasio's Superstars!"

"And since I'm such a nice guy, I've prepared a prize to make things more exciting!"

"In addition to prize money, I will graciously appoint the winning team to act as my official Pasio promo reps!"

"This is your chance to be the face of Pasio! You better show some gratitude!"

"In fact, since I'm such a nice guy, I've even prepared a prize for the second-place team!"

"That takes care of that! Now, let's start things off by separating the wheat from the chaff in the preliminaries!"

"If you want to make it to the finals, beat out the competition and prove you've got what it takes!"

"Ha ha ha ha!"

• Festival Fans and Superstars

"Looks like you're all done with your little chat. All right, then. Let the final competition begin!"

"The audience will decide which team wins!"

"I expect you all to deliver performances worthy of the Pasio Superstar Competition!"

• Endless Summer!

"Hmph. I've reached a decision."

"Both teams were equal in terms of skill, but the winner by a slim margin is..."

"<Player>'s team!"

"Now then, let's start the awards ceremony!"

"We'll start by handing out the prizes for the team that took first place. Try to show some gratitude, will you?!"

"To think that the Champion of Hoenn has become the poster boy for Pasio..."

"I guess this competition was a good idea after all!"

"Next is the second place team! Your prize is..."

"a statue of yours truly sculpted from a rare ore!"

"Put this symbol of your team someplace where everyone can get a good look at it!"

"Hmph. They don't know what they're giving up! But no matter..."

"The Sync Pair Music Festival isn't over yet!"

"Get out there and enjoy summertime on Pasio to the fullest!"

Story Event - Champion Time

• Exhibition Match Kick-Off

"We will now commence exhibition matches celebrating the arrival of Leon, Champion of the Galar region! This event will feature three exhibition matches! The first match: Gloria and Alder! The second match: Marnie and Karen! And to top it all off, we'll have a showdown between Blue and Leon! These elite Galar Trainers are the best of the best. Feast your eyes on these matches!"

• A Champion Time for All

"Well done! I expected no less from the best of Galar!"

Solo Event - Town Square Street Fair

• A Masked Face-Off!

"Bwahahaha! I heard everything!"

"I've decided to make this Battle Royal the main event of our street fair!"

"Sawyer! You take that last spot!"

"I won't let you say no! In fact, I even have a mask ready for you to use!"

"We will now commence the Pasio Battle Royal!"

"Fight to the very end with all you've got! May the strongest Trainer be victorious!"

"Ready... Fight!"

Story Event - All Aboard the Victory Train

• Full Speed Ahead

"I'm impresssed that the two of you managed to make it all the way here."

"I'm so impressed, I'll overlook the fact that you ignored Pasio's rules about three-on-three battles!"

"You mentioned some kind of request, didn't you? Let's hear it."

"Oh, is that all? I don't mind. Do as you wish."

"However! I will not accept any injuries or accidents, understood?"

"That being said, you're not cleared to begin construction just yet."

"There's someone else you need to talk to first."

"His name is..."

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Lear

"First, I suppose I should thank you for accepting this battle."

"I would have preferred to do it during the finals, but as we both know, that's not how things worked out."

"But I will have my rematch! Let's settle this once and for all!"

"Battle me, Red!"

"So we still lost..."

"I commend you on your win, Red."

"But just because we lost doesn't mean we haven't improved! We almost had you this time!"

"It's just a matter of time. Mark my words, we WILL beat you."

"... ... ..."

"What a strange feeling. I lost, but I feel somehow...liberated."

"Let's go, Hoopa."

"Hm? What, you're feeling down now? That's not like you at all!"

"But I guess if it makes you quiet, I have no complaints."

"H-hey... Come on, this is too much, even for you. You're starting to make me feel bad!"

"Cheer up! Go back to how you are when you play tricks on us."

"Whoa!"

"Hoooopaaaa!"

"<player>?! How long have you been watching us?"

From the very beginning.: "What?! Then...you saw my match with Red."

It was a great battle.: "Wait, you saw us?! From the very beginning?!"

"Tch! No matter. I did nothing that would embarrass myself anyway."

You get along well with Hoopa.: "Are you kidding? We've just known each other for a long time, that's all."

You two were really in sync!: "Well, we've known each other for a while. I can pretty much tell what Hoopa's thinking."

"Hey. Why don't you go play with them, since you called them here?"

"Hoopa's been like that ever since we met. Always playing tricks and making things hard on me."

"But...that also helped me a lot."

"Especially when I was all alone."

"We used to have fun back then, when I think about it."

"Once, he teleported some Exploud when everyone was asleep, and they made such a huge ruckus that..."

"Er... That's a strange memory, I suppose."

"Oh, and there was this other time..."

"We were playing, and he teleported some Tauros, which started to chase after us in a horrible game of tag..."

"No! What I want are mischief-free memories!"

"Well...guess I can't use that one... Um... Hmmm..."

"Hoopa! All of the memories I have of us together are of you causing trouble for me!"

"You don't see me as a prince at all, do you."

"You know what? I guess that's fine."

"It's time for us to leave. See you around."

"But let me say this."

"Between you and Red, only one of your teams can become the first champions of the PML."

"As the host of the PML, I expect nothing less than the finest battle between you two."

Got it!/I'll do my best!: "Hmph."

"But it's different if we're just talking about individual sync pairs!"

"Whichever one of you wins and becomes champion is the one I will challenge!"

"In the end, my plan is to win and become the ultimate number one!"

"I look forward to our next match! Hahahahaha!"

Pokémon Center

• Upon being summoned in sync pair scout

"Sync pairs of Pasio! Show us the finest battle we've ever seen!"

• Random conversation

"Creating the PML was my idea, but I let Rachel and Sawyer run it."

"But now, I also help them out a bit, of course."

"And why wouldn’t I? Checking the work of my retainers is my job!"

• Random conversation

"Hear my words! I’ve thought of the perfect item we can sell here on Pasio as a souvenir!"

"Of course, I mean these sunglasses! Everyone will want a pair!"

"If we add a few more color variations, they’re sure to become a big hit! Bwahahaha!"

"Hm? Why are you looking at me like that?"

• Random conversation

"That Hoopa played another trick on me!"

"How dare it wake me up by dropping things on my head!"

"Hoopa, just you wait! You’ll feel my wrath and regret you ever messed with me!"

• Random conversation

"Pasio is still a work in progress...and I don’t think I’ll ever consider Pasio’s development complete."

"After all, we keep adding new construction whenever we find new ways to battle and enjoy the island."

"One day, Pasio will be the best paradise in the world for people to enjoy! I guarantee it!"

• Random conversation

"Tell me, <player>, do you have people who are important to you?"

"Whoever you thought of just now, be sure to take care of them. Consider it some advice from me to you."

"You never know when you won’t be able to see someone anymore...so be sure to live without regrets."

• Random conversation

"Team Break was Pasio’s biggest disgrace. All they did was try to take out their own anger and frustration on others."

"But...I also failed to listen to their problems as the host and creator of this place."

"That was a disgrace for me as well. "

• If spoken to again

"My actions have an effect on others."

"That doesn’t apply just to me. Your actions can affect others, too."

"You should keep that in mind if you don’t want to repeat my mistakes. "

• Random conversation

"Everything I do here on Pasio is reported to my father back home."

"He’s a very strict man. If I go home as I am now, he wouldn’t allow me to take the throne."

"But...I don’t plan on keeping it that way."

"I will definitely find a way to make him recognize my greatness and allow me to succeed the throne!"

• If spoken to again

"As long as I give it my best effort and have Sawyer and the others on my side, I can do anything!"

"One day, my team will challenge you to another battle!"

"When that time comes, it’s my team that will win, so be prepared!"

• Special log-in conversation (generic)

"You’re here again today, I see. I suppose that deserves some credit, <player>."

"Pasio is my creation! Battle here to your heart’s content!"

• Special log-in conversation (morning)

"Bwahahahahaaa! There! Now I can TRULY start my day!"

• Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"Pokémon battles can happen anytime, anywhere. So come on! I’m challenging you to a match, here and now!"

• Special log-in conversation (evening)

"Rachel and Sawyer escorted me the entire day without a complaint. I should thank them when I return home for the night."

• Special gift conversation

"Rejoice, for I have something for you!"

"It’s a present from me! Make it your family treasure."

• First Meeting

"Hey you. You, in the shoddy hat. You have got some serious nerve, waltzing in here wearing an eyesore like that."

"Ugh... Apparently I was wrong. It's not just him/her---the whole group is a dingy eyesore."

Who are you?: "Did you just---?! I can't believe there are still people on this island who don't know who I AM!"

"I am Lear! It was I who created Pasio, the magnificent island you now stand on---and I who founded the Pokémon Masters League!"

"And it is I who shall be it's champion!"

"You would do well to remember my name."

"Hah! Don't bother. I doubt these amateurs will be around long enough to cause us any trouble. Hahaha! Bwahahaha!"

• Special Time Trial intro

"Hmph! So we meet again, <player>!"

"Even though it's beneath me...I suppose I'll tell you!"

"I have created a new kind of Pokémon battle here on Pasio."

"I call it...the time trial!"

"It's more than just a Pokémon battle! You compete with other Trainers to take down your opponents as fast as you can!"

"Speed will be crucial for these battles. You can't win solely by defeating your opponents!"

"I've even prepared some prizes, not that you and your pathetic lot stand a chance at winning them! Feel free to waste your time trying, though!"

• Special Lear Takes the Lead Solo Event conversation
