Introduction

"Cliff’s my name. Battling’s my game."

"You got a lot of nerve for a loser!"

"Pfft... You wanna fight?"

"Do you think you can beat me?"

"Why stop the inevitable? Team GO Rocket will always win!"

"Why do you fight us? Team GO Rocket gave so many of us a community—a purpose. What’s wrong with that?"

"The boss has ordered that we crush all of you, and the boss’s order is above all!"

"FINALLY. You’ve got some nerve, showing up late. I’ve been waiting an entire 45 seconds!"

"Thought you’d be better at this teamwork business, considering how much time you spend yakking with Professor Willow and that kid with the funky goggles."

"Don’t waste our time apologizing. And don’t bother introducing yourself. We’ve met enough times to skip the pleasantries."

"Let’s get down to business. Our bosses want us to check out a few locations where Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon have appeared."

"Huh? What do you mean, Professor Willow’s not your boss? Whatever. You got the gist."

"Time to get moving. Less talking, more walking!"

• 3/6 (if the player is a member of Team Mystic)

"Huh. These are decent snapshots."

"What do I need ’em for? Hah! That’s the smartest question you’ve asked all day."

"These’ll help us understand Primal Reversion—the phenomenon where Kyogre and Groudon return to their primal forms. I’ve heard Arlo say it’s kind of like Mega Evolution, but powered by nature’s energy."

"Now you can go give Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon the smackdown."

"What’s that? Of course I’m coming with you. We’re a team today."

"“Can’t leave a partner out to dry.” That’s what we used to say back on the ranch."

"Didn’t know I had a ranch? Guess you wouldn’t. Those days are long gone, anyhow."

"OK, enough chitchat. You and your Pokémon are gonna lead the way, “partner.”"

"You’ve kept up so far. Now show me you’ve got what it takes!"

• 5/6 (if the player is a member of Team Mystic)

"You’ve calmed Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon a few times now."

"Not bad! I’d promote you if you were on my team. I know good work when I see it."

"In fact, I’m getting the hang of it by watching you. "

"Which means Team GO Rocket’s got no more use for you! "

"So long, “partner”! "

"Don’t tell me you thought we were all best buds now? Pfft... Hahaha!"

"Nothing will shake my loyalty to Team GO Rocket. And don’t you forget it!"
