Marley/Quotes

These are Marley's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum

Victory Road

"...I'm Marley. ...You are? Oh... <player>, will you help me, please? I want to get through this tunnel. Will you let me go with you?"

"...Pokémon shouldn't be hurt... I'll heal them..."

"...You're going back... Too bad... Bye-bye..."

"...You took so long... Please don't make me wait... I felt a little forlorn waiting..."

"...Oh! This is it. There's a stone tablet ahead... I wanted to see the Pokémon that visits, that's all... ...I appreciate your escorting me... ...Just a little..."

• When walking

"... You're very chatty..."

"...The Pokémon among flowers..."

Route 224

"I... I don't like to talk... I choose my words carefully, but they may still hurt someone accidentally... When I think of that, I clam up... That's why I think this certain Pokémon is so wonderful. It's a Pokémon that conveys the feelings of gratitude in a nice way..."

"That stone tablet... It has a strange feel to it..."

"Thank you... That must have been the Pokémon that conveys the feelings of gratitude... You made it so I could see it... So, I'll have to convey thanks in my own words, too..."

"To you, too... Thank you..."'

"...If you won't battle, I might not come back..."

Yes: "...OK. I... won't lose...!"

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Marley

"... ... ..."

"Do you want me for something?"

You startled me.: "I didn't think anybody would be out here."

What are you doing out here?: "I was talking with my partner Pokémon."

"I just wanted some time alone with Arcanine."

"It's noisy outside of the forest... We can't talk if it's noisy."

Sorry to bother you./I'm probably distracting you. Sorry.: "No, it's OK. Rather..."

"Thanks."

What? Why?/Uh...: "I mean...thank you for being considerate..."

"I try not to apologize too much."

"You feel better being thanked than being apologized to, right?"

"Do you...understand what I'm trying to say?"

Yeah, I get you.: "Good, that's a relief."

I kinda don't get it.: "*sigh*...Words are difficult."

"I'm...very scared of conveying my feelings in words..."

"Even if I don't mean to, I end up hurting people."

"But I have so many things that I want to tell them."

"That's why I want to take as much time as I can to talk with Arcanine."

"Arcanine..."

"I can't... The words don't come out."

You can do it!/You don't have to push yourself!: "This is still too fast for me."

"I'm not confident that I can communicate well."

"But..."

"I know what I have to do in these situations."

"A certain Pokémon taught me..."

"that all you need to do is say thank you and give a flower to somebody you love."

"It told me that that would be enough."

"I was thinking of going to find some flowers, but what do you think?"

"Am I expressing myself all right? *giggle* I'm glad."

"I really appreciate you following me. Thank you."

"One of these days, I'll make sure to thank you properly."

"I love you, Arcanine. Please stay with me always."

Sync Pair Story - Ponyta's Evolution

• Before battle

"...You're Blaine, aren't you? I hear you're pretty famous in Kanto..."

"I heard that you were a strong Fire-type user, and I wanted to challenge you... Have a battle with me."

"I'm going all out. I'll show you what I'm made of!"

• After being defeated

"It's a shame I lost... But that was a great battle. I feel like I can get even stronger. Thank you, Blaine."

"Wha...? Even your Ponyta looks energized..."

Pokémon Center

• Random conversation

"I depend on my Arcanine a lot..."

"Since I was little, I've held him while I'm going to sleep..."

"He's fluffy and warm... It's a strange feeling, but he makes me feel at ease."

"I want to be with him forever."

• If spoken to again

"No matter how far away he is, he'll always come if I call him..."

"My Arcanine is truly dear to me..."

• Random conversation

"Weavile is a Pokémon you can find in the Sinnoh region..."

"And a friend of mine... We traveled together."

"It has sharp claws, but it's actually quite sweet and playful. I think it's adorable!"

"If you ever come across a Weavile, it would make me happy if you'd show it some affection, too."

• If spoken to again

"It's nice to touch the cool body of Weavile when it's warm out."

"But it doesn't like it if you touch it too much..."

• Random conversation

"If a Trainer doesn't give good commands, Pokémon get hurt in battle..."

"That's why I want to get better at battling."

"And it's fun for me and my Pokémon when we battle with you."

• If spoken to again

"What I can do is just a little..."

"But I used that little bit of strength and got here."

• Random conversation

"I... I don't like to talk because I'm afraid I will accidentally hurt someone with my words."

"That's why I choose my words carefully... But then my responses take too long."

"But I don't mind talking to you like this."

"I think it's because you listen to me..."

• If spoken to again

"Perhaps you're interested in me?"

"If so, I'll share a little bit more about myself."

• Random conversation

"I think I like Pasio... There's so much good food and fun things to do."

"Most importantly, I get to battle with so many Trainers..."

"Being close to you, I feel like I can get stronger..."

"I might have said some embarrassing things."

• If spoken to again

"It's truly difficult to say what you mean..."

"That's why I think it's wonderful to be able to be genuine with your words."

• Random conversation

"Arcanine is always with me when I go on an adventure."

"He has taught me so much."

"That's why...I want to give him something special..."

"If I win the PML, will that be a good gift for him?"

• If spoken to again

"I've been with my Arcanine since he was a Growlithe..."

"He comforts me. I don't feel lonely on adventures if I'm with him."

• Random conversation

"I don't like to talk, so I've always kept my distance from people."

"But...you've always been there for me, even when I kept my distance..."

"And I started to enjoy talking...just a little..."

"I want to get better at talking because I want to know more about you."

• If spoken to again

"I've always chosen my words carefully so as to not hurt anyone."

"I wonder if I can stop worrying about it so much when I get more comfortable talking..."

• Special log-in conversation (generic)

"<player>... Good to see you again..."

"I hope we can enjoy our time together..."

• Special gift conversation

"Here, this is for you. Please take it."

"I thought you might like it... That's all."

"I don't need anything in return."

"It's just a thank-you for always being there..."
