Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow
Pewter Gym

  • Being defeated
"I took you for granted. As proof of your victory, here's the BoulderBadge!"
"That's an official Pokémon League Badge! Its bearer's Pokémon become more powerful! The technique Flash can now be used any timeRB/anytimeY!"
  • After being defeated
"Wait! Take this with you!"

"There are all kinds of trainers in the world! You appear to be very gifted as a Pokémon trainer! Go to the Gym in Cerulean and test your abilities!"RB
"There are all kinds of trainers in the world! Some raise Pokémon for fights. Some see them as pets. I'm in training to become a Pokémon breeder. If you take your Pokémon training seriously, go visit the Gym in Cerulean and test your abilities!"Y

Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal
Pewter Gym
  • Before battle
"Wow, it's not often that we get a challenger from Johto. I'm Brock, the Pewter Gym Leader. I'm an expert on Rock-type Pokémon. My Pokémon are impervious to most physical attacks. You'll have a hard time inflicting any damage. Come on!"
  • Being defeated
"Your Pokémon's powerful attacks overcame my rock-hard defense... You're stronger than I expected... Go ahead--take this Badge."
  • After battle
"<Player>, thanks. I enjoyed battling you, even though I am a bit upset. That BoulderBadge will make your Pokémon even more powerful."
"The world is huge. There are still many strong trainers like you. Just wait and see. I'm going to become a lot stronger too."

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen
Pewter Gym
  • Before battle
"So, you're here. I'm Brock. I'm Pewter's Gym Leader. My rock-hard willpower is evident even in my Pokémon. My Pokémon are all rock hard, and have true-grit determination. That's right - my Pokémon are all the Rock type! Fuhaha! You're going to challenge me knowing that you'll lose? That's the Trainer's honor that compels you to challenge me. Fine, then! Show me your best!"
  • Being defeated
"I took you for granted, and so I lost. As proof of your victory, I confer on you this...the official Pokémon League BoulderBadge."
"Just having the Boulder Badge makes your Pokémon more powerful. It also enables the use of the move Flash outside of battle. Of course, a Pokémon must know the move Flash to use it."
  • After being defeated
"Wait! Take this with you."
"A TM, Technical Machine, contains a technique for Pokémon. Using a TM teaches the move it contains to a Pokémon. A TM is only good for one use. So, when you use one, pick the Pokémon carefully. Anyways... TM39 contains Rock Tomb. It hurls boulders at the foe and lowers its speed."
"There are all kind of Trainers in this huge world of ours. You appear to be very gifted as a Pokémon Trainer. So let me make a suggestion. Go to the Gym in Cerulean and test your abilities."

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver
Pewter Gym
  • Before battle
"Wow, it's not often that we get a challenger from Johto. I'm Brock, the Pewter Gym Leader. I'm an expert on Rock-type Pokémon. My Pokémon are impervious to most physical attacks. You'll have a hard time inflicting any damage. Come on!"
  • During battle
"Ow ow ow ow ow..."
  • After sending out last Pokémon
"Ah ha ha! It itches! It itches!"
  • Being defeated
"Looks like you're the stronger one..."
  • After being defeated
"Your Pokémon's powerful attacks overcame my rock-hard resistance... You're stronger than I expected... Go ahead—take this Badge."

"The world is huge. There are still many strong Trainers like you. Just wait and see. I'm going to become a lot stronger, too."
Pokégear Registering (Diglett's Cave)
"Small spaces surrounded by rocks make you feel peaceful, don't you agree? By the way, do you want to exchange numbers?"
Yes: "I would like to have a Pokémon battle against you! Give me a call on Saturday nights!"'
Pokégear Phone
  • Calling the player:
"This is Brock. Oh hey, how are you doing? There are so many different types of Pokémon in the world. As you could guess, I like Rock-type Pokémon best. They're solid and rough, and yet somewhat brittle at the same time. Once you've really gotten to know them, they're quite cute. What do you think?"
  • Calling him:
"Hello... What's up? I'm doing great! I can take a break on Saturday evenings, if you want to give me a call again then."
  • On Saturdays:
"Hello... What's up? I'm doing great! Hey, you called at just the right time! I'm free right now. Want to battle me again?"
No: "Is that so... Well, I suppose you must have a lot of things to do yourself..."
Yes: "All right, all right! I'm looking forward to it! I'll meet you at the Fighting Dojo in Saffron City! I won't be at the Pewter Gym, all right? Don't get confused!"
Fighting Dojo
  • Before battle
"All right! Time to fulfill our promise!"
  • After being defeated
"I've lost again... You aren't adventuring around for nothing!"

  • Before battle (final round)
"I'm Brock! I'm an expert of Rock-type Pokémon. My Pokémon are impervious to most physical attacks. You'll have a hard time inflicting any damage."
  • Being defeated
"Your Pokémon's powerful attacks overcame my rock-hard resistance... You're stronger than I expected..."
  • If the player is defeated
"The best offense is a good defense! That's my way of doing things!"
  • After being defeated
"I really enjoyed the battle with you. Still, the world is huge! I can't believe you got past my rock-hard defense."
  • After winning
"I really enjoyed the battle with you. I guess my rock-hard defense works in top-level competition as well!"
  • In the lobby, after the tournament
"Awesome... That was a really great battle. I compliment you on your victory!"

Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!
Pewter Gym
  • Before battle
"So, you're here. I'm Brock, Pewter City's Gym Leader. You can see just by looking at my Pokémon how rock hard my willpower is. My Pokémon are all hard as rock and have true-grit determination! That's right! My Pokémon are all Rock types! Fwahaha! You're going to challenge me even knowing that you'll lose? That's what a Trainer's honor demands! So be it! Show me your best!"
  • Being defeated
"It seems I underestimated you."
  • After being defeated
"As proof of your victory, take an official Pokémon League Badge—a Boulder Badge!"
"With a Boulder Badge, Pokémon up to Lv. 20 from other Trainers will listen to you without question! Oh...and wait! Take this with you, too."
"If you use a TM, or Technical Machine, you can teach your Pokémon the move within it. A TM can be used as many times as you like, so use it on any Pokémon you want. TM01 contains Headbutt. It deals damage to your opponent's Pokémon by ramming them with a head as hard as rock."
"There are all kinds of people in this huge world of ours. Some have their Pokémon battle—some just like to raise them... I'm hard at work here to learn how to become a Pokémon Breeder, who helps raise Pokémon. You're aiming to become a strong Trainer, right? Then you should challenge all the other Gyms!"
Celadon City
"Hey! I didn't expect to run into you here. I'm on my way back from visiting the Celadon City Gym. Keeping in touch with other Gym Leaders is part of our duties, after all!"
"The girls at that Gym all turned me away for some reason, though... Actually, have some Pewter Crunchies! I'd brought them as a gift to the Gym here."
"Oh, and you're probably going to want some tea after eating them. Pewter Crunchies can make you thirsty."
"Ah! I don't have enough left to give to that thirsty guard now..."
"Anyway, it looks like you've been visiting the Gyms in other cities! I wish you the best!"
Rematch
  • Before battle (first rematch)
"...You sure look different from when we first met! I have a request for you, since you're now the Pokémon League Champion. The truth is, Gym Leaders have the right to challenge the Champion! ...Please allow me the privilege of facing you in battle once again! Allow me to show you the true rock-hard strength of my Pokémon!"
  • Before battle (subsequent rematches)
"No matter what kind of opponent you may be, my Rock-type Pokémon will take you on! That's the promise of my rock-hard will!"
  • Being defeated
"I knew you were strong, but this..."
  • After being defeated
"I've chosen to postpone my dream of becoming a Pokémon Breeder just for a little bit longer. Right now I'm more interested in training to grow strong enough to one day face and defeat you! Please, battle me every day so I can grow even stronger!"

In the side series

Pokémon Stadium 2

"Here! <Pokémon> is leading off!"
  • Sending out a new Pokémon
"<Pokémon>, go for it!"

"That's good, <Pokémon>!"
"Well done! <Pokémon>, come back!"

"Aack! That hurts!"

  • Player's Pokémon lands a critical hit

"Arrrgh..."

"I was done in... I didn't know about that style of battling..."
  • After winning
"It's been a while since I had a battle like this."
"Defense is crucial, after all."
"Your Pokémon are good, too."
"Wouldn't you agree that defense is essential?"
  • If the battle ended in a draw
"A draw? How is that possible?"
  • If the player runs from the battle
"It's not like you to run."

In the spin-off games

Pokémon Puzzle League
  • Before battle
"Hi, Ash! It's good to see you again. It looks like I will be your first official battle. I hold the Boulder Badge. If you defeat me, then I will give it to you. Have you heard anything about the Puzzle Master? I hear no one has ever defeated him. Oh well, are you ready? Let's go."

Main Story Chapter 1 - New Adventure, New Goal
  • Trouble in Centra City
"This is Centra City, the biggest city on Pasio. You might be surprised to know that Pasio is a completely artificial island!"
"Now then, I have a sync pair in mind that might be willing to join our team, so let's go look for them."
"What's going on over there?"
"Hey, you two! Cut that out! Don't you see you're bothering them?"
  • Cynthia and Rosa
"So that's what was going on... All in all, I'm glad nothing bad happened."
"Oh, I should introduce you two. <player>, this is Rosa. She's a famous Trainer from the Unova region."
"We were looking for you because we wanted to talk to you, but..."
"Imagine our surprise when we saw you with the Sinnoh Champion. Who would have thought you'd be here, too!"
"There she goes..."
"But she was right to be impressed. You were great in battle, <player>!"
"Right, we had something we wanted to talk to you about, Rosa."
"We're looking for people to join our team for the PML. What do you think?"
  • The More the Merrier
"OK, that sounds good. As they say, the more the merrier!"
Main Story Chapter 3 - Rise beyond the Flames
  • Volcanic Panic!
"I see you've made your way to Pasio as well, Blaine. Didn't think I'd see you here."
  • Fiery to the Core
"What do you mean, the full situation?"
"I see. If that's the case, leave it to us!"
"Despite what he says, Blaine must be worried about Flannery."
  • Kindling Friendship
"We'd be more than glad to have you on our team, Flannery. What do you say?"
Badges?/I don't think I have any.: "Oh, right. Badges. This might be a good time to start collecting them."
"We need to collect five badges to officially compete in the PML."
"And each badge is held by a PML Leader."
"Now that you mention it..."
"A Gym Leader friend of mine from Kanto, Erika, might've said something about being a PML Leader."
Main Story Chapter 4 - From Bud to Blossom
"Hunting for Badges'
"Let's get going. The forest should be just ahead of this road, and Erika should be somewhere in the forest."
"From what I hear, we have to prove that we're worthy to each of the leaders."
"Standing around here isn't gonna give us the answer to that. Come on. Let's find Erika and ask her ourselves!"
Miss Popularity
"Man, there sure are a lot of female Trainers around here."
"Sure does make me nervous..."
"Uh... Is she talking to me?"
"You know Erika?! Could you tell us where—"
Identity Crisis Averted!
"All right, will you just calm down a second and hear us out? Misty and I are actually friends of Erika's."
"Well, you didn't really give us a chance to explain. Anyway, as long as we're clear now..."
Wake-up Call
"<player>, meet Erika. Erika, meet... Erika...? Are you asleep?"
"This is <player>. We formed a team together to compete in the PML."
"You guessed it. Uh, what exactly do we have to do to get our hands on one of these badges, anyway?"
A Blossoming Flower
"Well, that's pretty flattering and all...but wouldn't it be weird for a PML Leader to join a team?"
"Huh, I see... Guess I have no objection, then. What do you think, <player>?
"Right! Time to hunt for the next badge, then!"
Main Story Chapter 6 - A Telling Aura
  • A Newfound Confidence
"Thanks, Korrina! Thanks, Brendan! Thanks to you guys, I feel more confident."
"I think we can get back to focusing on collecting badges now."
"That'd be great! Thanks!"
Main Story Chapter 10 - A Matter of Pride
  • The Final Badge
"Well, team, it's been a pretty eventful journey so far, but I think I'm ready to get back to collecting badges."
"The only one we're missing now is the Pride Badge. Once we get our hands on that, we'll be able to compete in the PML!"
Can't wait to meet the next PML Leader!: "Hahaha! You really do love Pokémon battles, don't you, <player>?"
It's been pretty challenging so far.: "It sure has...but we're in the final stretch now! Come on—let's give this our best shot!"
"From what I hear, she's still a young child."
"But supposedly, she's got some serious talent, despite her age. Rumor has it she's a kahuna on one of the Alolan islands..."
  • Out of the Frying Pan, Into the Fire
"Paulo! Are you all right?"
  • Paulo Conflicted
"Why are you so worried about Paulo, anyway? We'll see him again real soon, like he said."
"And when we do, I'm sure he will have grown into a powerful rival for us to compete against."
Looking forward to it!/We'll grow even more powerful than that!: "Hahaha! I like your enthusiasm!"
"All right! Let's head out as soon as this rest stop is over. Final badge, here we come!"
  • A Reason to Battle
"In any case, the rest of us came here to challenge you to a battle. You're still ready to rumble, right?"
"Is that...a Pride Badge?! But we haven't even battled yet!"
"This isn't exactly the way I imagined things would go in the end...but hey, we did it! Congrats, <player>!"
"Well, You heard the little lady. What do you think, <player>?"
Of course we'll battle you!/Let's do this! No holding back!: "I was hoping you'd say that!"
  • Minds Made Up
"Wow, <player>. You've really come a long way, haven't you."
"And you're only getting stronger... You remind me of Red and Blue when they first beat me."
"Wh-what's so funny, all of the sudden?!"
"L-listen...I..."
"... ... ..."
"Uh... Say, <player>...I just remembered I've got thing thing I need to do..."
"You guys go on ahead! I'll meet you back in Centra City later."
Main Story Interlude 1 - Brock's Grit
  • New Look
"I'm over here."
"I've been waiting for you guys to arrive...with my Tyranitar here."
"It's my sygna suit."
"A fashion designer here on Pasio saw some new kind of potential in my Pokémon and me and designed it for us."
"It's proof of how much we've grown and accomplished as a sync pair since coming here."
"It's more than than, Rosa."
"Up until now, my intention was to watch over <player> like a mentor Trainer."
"But you've all grown into such incredible sync pairs. Even island kahunas and other Gym Leaders have acknowledged your strength."
"When I see how much you've all grown, I can't help but want to battle with you myself."
"Not as a teammate...but as another Trainer!"
"Well now you do! Come on, <player>! Let's battle!"
I accept!: "I had a feeling you might! Thanks!"
I won't hold back, Brock!: "I wouldn't want you to! Thanks!"
"Come on, <player>! Show me how strong you've become!"
  • The Journey Begins Anew
"... ... ..."
"You did great! Look at how strong you've become, <player>."
"I'm glad I was able to battle you. Now I know for a fact that you're much stronger than I originally thought."
"I don't think there's anything left for me to teach you."
"<player>'s already become a fine Trainer."
"He/She doesn't need anybody to watch over him/her anymore."
"I'd like to rejoin the team. Not as a guide or a coach but as a proper teammate... Is that all right?"
Of course!: "I'm glad. Thank you."
Let's get to work, then!: "Definitely! Let's get even stronger together!"
"I'm counting on you to help push this team to the top. All right, <player>?"
  • Let the Tournament Begin!
"Sounds like the tournament matches will be starting soon. I wonder what sort of battles await us..."
"I see Blue and Red, too, but I suppose that's to be expected as well."
"You're right. But we went through the same trials and tribulations that they did. We belong here just as much as they do."
"If we unite our hearts as a team, we can defeat any opponent! I believe in us."
"Oh, it's you..."
"Word of advice, Lear: <player> is a lot stronger that the last time we met."
"If you let your guard down, you might be surprised at the results."
I'll make him regret it next time we battle!: "Good answer. We sync pairs should settle our scores with Pokémon battles"
Right now, I'm more focused on getting stronger.: "It's great to be humble and all...but all of us here are full-fledged sync pairs. That's something we should be proud of."
"If we keep winning, I'm sure we'll eventually have to face him. When the time comes, let's show him what we're made of!"
"Paulo!"
"It's good to see you again! And if you're here, that must mean..."
Main Story Interlude 2 - A Stubborn Obstacle
  • Stand Up as a Team
"Looks like the tournament matches are ramping up!"
"That being said, I'm still amazed that you've gotten this strong, <player>."
"Who said that?!"
"Lear!"
"Give it a break, Lear!"
"You heard <player>! We're a team! We all worked together to make it this far!"
Main Story Chapter 19 - Rematch vs. Lear!
  • More Precious than Victory
"Our team has worked really hard to make it this far in the tournament. We finally qualified for the second half—for the finals!"
"But now what? Lear has challenged us to a battle we can't refuse. If we lose, he's gonna kick us out of the competition."
"You're right... I'm not happy about the fact that we're being forced into a rematch when we're so close to the finals."
"But it might be a good opportunity for <player> to show off his/her skills. Better be in top shape, though!"
"Lear totally crushed us."
"Let's beat him!" to Rosa: "Yeah. It's important to the team that we win this battle, but it's more important that we—"
"I know." to Rosa: "I think <player> realizes that even though winning is important for the team, it's even more important that we—"
"But he's still a Pokémon Trainer, just like us. Part of me wants to believe that deep down he feels the same way we do."
"I think you're the one who's going to have to help him realize that, <player>. He's stuck on you, for whatever reason."
"It's not going to be easy, but one way or another, we have to get through to Lear during our battle."
"We've got to show him that there's more to Pokémon battling than victory alone!"
"There he is."
"Take it easy, Rosa. He's just trying to rile us up."
"Lear, battling is one thing, but threatening to disqualify us because of your personal feelings is wrong. Is that the kind of PML you want to run?"
"<Player>... This isn't the end of the PML for us. There's no way we're giving up now."
"Sometimes battling is the only way to get people to see eye to eye with you."
Regardless of choice: "Yeah! Let's show Lear how strong our team's bond has become!"
  • Until Next We Battle
"Lear... You're extremely powerful—there's no doubt about that. Your skills as a Trainer might even surpass <player>'s."
"But he/she has a few things that you don't."
"He/she has the capacity to have FUN in a Pokémon battle...and real friendship...and, most importantly, a real bond with his/her Pokémon."
"Sync stones are what turn the bond between Trainers and Pokémon into power."
"If Lear can't use sync moves, then that means--"
"Lear, you have friends who care about you. Friends who have stuck with you all this time."
"All you have to do is reach out a hand—"
"Maybe we should just give him some space for now..."
"Come on, team. Let's go."
"Hm? What's wrong, <player>? Aren't you coming?"
"You really have grown a lot, haven't you?"
"Let's head back."
Main Story Chapter 21 - Face the Fight!
  • Face the Fight: Part 1
"Yeah! Do you think we might have time to take a—"
"break? Heh, I guess not. Shall we?"
"What's wrong, Rosa? We have to get going."
"Paulo? He must have made it to the finals, too, then. That's great news!"
"I'd like to say hi to him as well, but first we have to line up! Let's go find him after the ceremony."
"Lear's not doing the opening announcement? What's going on?"
"I didn't think I'd see Sawyer being master of ceremonies."
"Could he still be moping around because of our battle? Either way..."
"our first match is about to start! Let's focus on the tournament for now."
You bet!: "That's the spirit! Let's go for the win!"
"We have to focus if we want to have our rematch with Lear, right?"
I wonder if Lear is OK.: "It's probably best if we put Lear out of our minds for now—for his sake as well."
"We have to focus if we want to have our rematch with him."
"It's time!"
  • Face the Fight: Part 2
"Yeah, not only was their coordination impeccable...but they looked like they were having a lot of fun during that battle, too!"
"To think our first opponents were that strong... Goes to show you that the finals are no joke!"
"Ha ha! If that's your first reaction after battling, we'll be fine!"
"It's already time to announce the next matches! Let's see. Our new opponents are..."
"No way!"
Main Story Chapter 22 - Rival Face-Off!
  • Rival Face-Off! Round 1
"The day's finally come, Paulo."
  • Rival Face-Off! Round 2
"For us to have won against Paulo..."
We've got to do our best for his sake, too!: "Right! We've got to fight even harder than before!"
We're going to win this thing!: "That's right. We've still got some rough road ahead of us. No matter what strong opponent we face, we can't afford to lose."
"That's your duty, as Paulo's rival."
Main Story Chapter 25 - A Glorious Gambit
  • A Glorious Gambit: Part 1
"All right. Time for round four of the finals... Looks like we're going up against Will and Karen's team."

"You teamed up with Will and Karen?"

  • The Quarterfinals: Part 2
"... ... ..."
"Do you know which teams advanced, Cynthia?"
"Red and Lance, huh?"
"Lear!"
"And we finally get to face off against him next!"
"Now we can pick up where we left off in our battle with him, <player>!"
We'll win this time!: "We sure will! But I bet Lear is far stronger now than he was before."
"We're going to have to give it all we've got if we want to win."
Main Story Chapter 28 - Change of Heart
  • Moments from the Semifinals
"We're only a few moments away from our third battle with Lear..."
And we're going to win!: "I'm sure Lear's thinking the same thing right now."
Let's have some fun with it!: "You two never change a bit, do you."
"Where in the world are they?"
"Team Break?! Cheren, do you know something you're not telling us?"
"I'm worried about him, too, but right now our first priority is stopping Team Break!"
"Come on, everyone! It's up to us to protect the PML!"
  • Help Arrives!
"Tch!"
"Lear!"
"Uh-huh. And he still looks as smug as ever."
"All right! Let's give this everything we've got!"
  • A Match to Remember
"That's it! We've finally crushed all of Team Break!"
"I wonder how the people who've been waiting for this match are going to feel..."
"Yeah. I actually realized something about Lear when we were battling together."
"He's gotten so much stronger that I hardly even recognize his battle style anymore."
Main Story Chapter 29 - Semifinal Showdown
  • Semifinal Showdown: Part 2
"<player>'s grown a ton since he/she first came to Pasio!"
"Not if we crush your team first!"
  • Semifinal Showdown: Part 3
"But now you know what it's like to have that kind of fun, too."
"Don't you?"
"Lear sure was tough, wasn't he."
"At any rate, we should all give ourselves a pat on the back. We made it to the finals!"
"Whether we win or lose, we made it all the way to the end!"
Main Story Chapter 30 - The Road to Victory
  • The Road to Victory: Part 2
"Today's the day, <player>!"
"That's probably better than getting cold feet!"
"OK, <player>. We're up against Red and his team."
"Come to think of it, did you know that I'm the first Gym Leader they ever challenged?"
Really?!: "Yup. There's a Gym in Viridian City, which is between Pallet Town and my Gym, but the Gym Leader there was absent at the time."
"So instead they faced me in their first battle for a Gym Badge."
"What I noticed about Red wasn't that he was just strong but that he was gifted as a Trainer."
Were they strong?: "Well... I'd like to say yes, but actually, they had just become Trainers at the time."
"With Red, what really stood out to me wasn't that he was strong but that he seemed very gifted as a Trainer."
"I felt the same when I first met you, too."
"Red, Blue, and Leaf are from Pallet Town, and they're all excellent Trainers."
"But no need to worry. You're one of Pasio's finest Trainers—or rather, finest sync pairs!"
"Use everything you're learned on Pasio and bring it to the final battle, <player>!"
"Red never wavers when it comes to his love of battling, does he."
"All right! It's time for our final challenge!"
  • The Road Goes Ever On
We tried harder than anyone else!: "It's true. We saw you give it your all every time we battled."
"And that pushed us to do our best, too!"
"I guess I wouldn't put it past him, but this really isn't the time or place..."
"Lear, I see where you're coming from, but..."
I wanna battle you all this time!: "It goes without saying that you've become a rock-solid sync pair..."
"Given the chance, I'd like to battle you, too—as a rival I've grown stronger beside!"
Legendary Event - Lurking Shadow
  • A New Plot
"I think this is the area Trista was telling us about."
I've got a bad feeling about this.: "You, too, <player>? I'm glad it's not just me."
"Something tells me this could get a little dangerous... We should keep our guard up."
"Hm? Wait a sec—these might be our guys..."
"What?!"
"Hey, you! Is what you just said true?!"
Who's Giovanni?: "There used to be a group called Team Rocket in Kanto. They did all sorts of mean, evil things, and Giovanni was their leader."
"If Giovanni's really here, we're in for a world of trouble."
"Well, there goes any doubts I might have had! We can't let Giovanni follow through with whatever he's planning!"
"Come on, Misty! <player>! We've gotta stop him!"
  • Mysterious Stones and Hidden Power
"Somewhere in this cave, we're gonna run into Giovanni."
"Keep an eye out for trouble, everyone."
"Agreed. But who knows what a guy like Giovanni could be getting up to in a place like this."
"Giovanni!"
"Huh? What's that supposed to mean?"
"Care to elaborate on that?"
"I feel like it's staring into my soul... That's a powerful Pokémon right there, no doubt about it."
  • Unfathomable Strength
"I doubt it. I don't even think he treated that last battle as a serious fight."
"Ergh! He got away."
  • A Questionable Alliance
"Looks like this is as deep as the cave goes."
"You've got nowhere left to run, Giovanni!"
"What are you getting at? Don't tell me you expect us to get involved in your evil schemes. That's never gonna happen!"
"... ... ..."
"To be honest, I'd trust a Liepard before I trust Giovanni. But if he's on our team, we can keep an eye on him..."
"and maybe prevent him from carrying out more of his no-good schemes. What do you think, <player>?"
"You're gonna have to stop getting involved with Team Break, too, all right? If you conspire with them to sabotage the PML, it's over."
"I guess we have a deal, then. Don't forget your promise, Giovanni."

Time Trial Event - Eternal Rivals
  • Hear Me Roar!
"I guess Tyranitar is a better training partner for Steelix than Onix after all."
"It seems like Steelix is better at taking hits and counterattacking than trying to quickly dodge them."
"If we can train your Steelix to withstand Tyranitar's attacks, you'll be able to go toe-to-toe with any opponent!"
"Uh... Who are you again?"
"Ah, I see."
"Well then, let me formally introduce myself! I'm Brock, a Rock-type Gym Leader!"
Were you training with Jasmine?: "Yeah, we're training for the time trials, too! I'll let my training partner here introduce herself."
What about Jasmine?: "Whoops! You're right. She needs to introduce herself, too!"
"All right, Raihan. Shall we get started?"
"Tyranitar is unusually worked up right now. I haven't seen him like this in a while."
"My Tyranitar isn't from Galar, though. I guess it's just the nature of our Pokémon!"
"Here we go, Tyranitar!"
  • Someday, Somehow!
"He's fast... Slow him down with rocks!"
"You're not getting away that easily! Bombard the area with rocks, Tyranitar!"
"What?!"
"Well done! I can tell you've been training for speed!"
"Sure thing!"
"Hey, I have an idea. Why don't you battle Jasmine next?"
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Brock
"Where's a good, open space around here..."
"Hm? Oh, hey, <player>! Are you out shopping?"
No, just wandering around./I was just taking a stroll.: "Really? If that's the case, could you help me out?"
"I was looking for a good place in town where I could train."
Nice! Let's go find one!/How about the forest?: "Thanks, <player>! All right, then. No time like the present! Let's go!"
"I'm glad you knew this place! You're a lifesaver!"
"Onix is bigger than most Pokémon, after all."
"It can be pretty difficult for us to train unless we're outside or in a Gym."
Oh, interesting!/I'm glad we found this place, then, Onix.: "Onix seems happy. He must like this place."
"Onix has been my partner for a long time."
"So it's my duty as his Trainer to give him a space where he can move around freely."
"But now, it's about time we got to Training!"
You're going to train, too?: "Yeah! I want to make sure that I'm completely in sync with Onix during our battles!"
But training is for Pokémon...: "It can be for Trainers, too! I want to ensure I'm completely in sync with Onix during our battles!"
"By training and working out with Onix..."
"I naturally get to see what he's good at and bad at, how he fights, and what his abilities are. That tells me how to best use him in battle."
"It's because I do this that Onix and I have won countless Pokémon battles."
Do you think I can get stronger, too?/Do you think I can be more like you?: "Of course! As your personal coach, I guarantee it!"
"That's right! I'm the rock-solid Pokémon Trainer Brock!"
"And uh... Can I help you?"
"Wow, that's definitely flattering!"
"Then, <player>, why don't we try out what we were talking about earlier?"
"I'm sure it would be good training for these fellas, too!"
Oof, I can't feel my arms.../What a workout!: "Yeah, those hikers look tired...but satisfied, too!"
Thank you!: "Of course! I meant to work out myself!"
You really helped me out.: "No worries! I meant to work out myself!"
"You know, you have a really good sense for Pokémon battles, <player>."
"You're definitely destined to become a great Trainer in the future."
"I want to be there when it happens!"
You're making me blush./You're overestimating me.: "Ha ha! Well, life's most fun when you have lofty goals, right?"
"Take me, for instance. I have Trainers that know me now, sure."
"But at one point in time, I was a rookie just like you."
"From there, I focused on experiencing as many things as possible. Like that training."
"And after a long time of doing that, I became a Gym Leader."
"So I know that you can do the same, <player>."
"That workout we did today was strictly what I developed with Onix"
"If that workout and training session can inspire you, that would make me happy."
"Onix is cheering you on, too."
Thanks. I'll do my best!: "Yeah! That's the spirit!"
Well, I'll do what I can.: "Good! That's the spirit!"
"If there's anything I can do to help, let me know!"
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Sygna Suit Brock
"Hey! Perfect timing, <player>!"
"Now, I want an honest answer. Do you think this outfit suits me?"
Yeah.: "I'm glad to hear you think so, too."
Well, it's not bad...: "Hm. When you say "not bad", that means that it's somewhat becoming, right?"
"I'm rather fond of this suit myself."
"But...I also kind of feel it's a little...too much."
"While I do like it, it's a little embarrassing at the same time."
You look like Tyranitar./You look like a Pokémon.: "Ah, you noticed, too!"
"Apparently, this sygna suit was designed to give Trainers a stronger connection to their Pokémon."
"I'm not familiar with fashion, but some so-called famous designer was very insistent that I wear this suit."
"And here's the weird thing: when I'm wearing this outfit, I feel like I've become Tyranitar."
"I've been training with Tyranitar for a while now. I would trust him with my life."
"And before I started wearing this suit, I thought we perfectly understood each other."
"But once I put on this outfit..."
"I feel like I can feel the exact same things he does. Like I know exactly what he wants me to do with incredible clarity."
"At least that's how it feels."
"If I can focus on honing this sensation to perfection, Tyranitar and I should be able to reach new heights!"
"This sygna suit made me feel the possibility of becoming even closer to my Pokémon."
That suit seems pretty cool.: "As a fellow Trainer, I agree."
I want to wear it, too!: "As a fellow Trainer, I can understand the sentiment."
"Tyranitar is known as the Armor Pokémon."
"This sygna suit is my armor! Now, Tyranitar and I can fight even closer than ever!"
"Listen up, <player>!"
"Now that I have this sygna suit, don't think we are the same as we were before. We are stronger than you could imagine!"
Sync Pair Story - Servine's Evolution
  • Before battle
"Rosa, I'm confident your Servine still has plenty of room to grow. So come on! Let's battle it out and see what he can do!"
"I've been wanting to fight in an all-out one-on-one battle with you for a long time! Come on—let's do this!"
"Just see if you can get past the impenetrable wall of my rock-solid willpower and my Onix's rock-hard armor!"
"Don't hold back! Come at me with everything you've got!"
  • After being defeated
"Man! Your power smashed right through our rock-solid defense!"
"It was fun for us, too. We should do this again sometime."
Pokémon Center
  • Random conversation
"Other than being a Gym Leader in Kanto, I also help on fossil excavations."
"I become more familiar with all sorts of regions by digging in the earth and mountains."
"I wonder what kind of Pokémon there were a long time ago. What kind of geography was it?"
"Whenever I think about ages that we don't know about, I can't help but get really excited."
  • If spoken to again
"If you ever come to Pewter City in Kanto, come visit my Gym."
"I'll show you around the Gym—and the museum we have nearby, too!"
"If you have any interest in old Pokémon fossils, I can't recommend it enough."
  • Random conversation
"My Onix is my best partner."
"He specializes in withstanding any attack and dishing out a powerful counterattack."
"He just fits with how I do battles as well."
"There aren't too many Pokémon that can stand after getting counterattack by Onix!"
  • If spoken to again
"Onix can get around by digging into the ground."
"He's big and heavy, but you'd be surprised at how nimble he is."
  • Random conversation
"I've been going to the mountains and the ruins on Pasio."
"Of course, I'm participating in the PML as well."
"But as long as I'm here, I might as well enjoy myself, right?"
"Don't get me wrong, I'm not slacking off!"
  • If spoken to again
"The Trainers that gathered here are from all over the world and know all sorts of geography, history, and Pokémon."
"It's great that I not only get to battle them but also get to talk to them."
"Not to mention, I'll have stories to take back to Kanto."
  • Random conversation
"Pokémon battles are the hardest for the Pokémon themselves."
"That's why I train as much as my Pokémon— so that I can empathize with their hardships."
"How tough it must be to take that kind of damage... If I could experience it with them, victory would be that much more satisfying."
  • If spoken to again
"Pokémon support their Trainers by using their powers."
"That's why I wanted to be able to support my Pokémon as well!"
"And as I trained, I became a lot stronger."
"Now, I can run with a Geodude on my back."
  • Random conversation
"I wonder what kind of Trainer you will become, <player>."
"As a Gym Leader, I've seen a lot of different Trainers."
"But all of the Trainers that were able to beat me had a glint in their eye."
"No matter how strong you become, I want you to remember what it was like when you began and enjoy Pokémon battles in the same way."
  • If spoken to again
"Even the strongest Tainer was a beginner once."
"You don't have to hold anything back. Find Trainers more experienced than you, and challenge them to Pokémon battles!"
  • Random conversation
"I've fought a lot of Trainers up until now."
"So, believe me when I say that you are an excellent Trainer."
"You can hold your head high and take on more battles!"
  • If spoken to again
"You need a strong will for battles. Wanting to win, wanting to not lose--that willpower will lead you to victory."
"So believe in yourself. Believe that you're an amazing Trainer."
"Believing in yourself with a rock-hard will--that is the secret to winning!"
  • Random conversation
"You're becoming stronger than I could have imagined. It's like I found a diamond in the rough!"
"Don't worry—that's a compliment. I'm just saying that it's like finding an unexpected gem."
"In other words, it's rare to see a Trainer as good as you are!"
  • If spoken to again
"One of these days, I want to have a serious battle with you."
"Battling a rare gem like you would probably be a lot more intense than I can imagine!"
"I can already hear the sound of our clashing wills!"
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Some designer gave me this outfit when I came here."
"I usually don't have too much of a preference with clothes..."
"But I feel like this outfit helps me focus and makes it easier to battle. Maybe that's just proof that I like it."
  • If spoken to again
"This outfit will be perfect for serious battles."
"Especially if I'm going to battle a strong Trainer like you."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"I usually let my Tyranitar go wild in important battles."
"He has high defense, like I prefer--and raw strength for awesome attacks, too."
"Tyranitar is the best of both worlds!"
"If we ever have the chance of battling together, I'll show you Tyranitar's power."
  • If spoken to again
"Each Pokémon has things they're good at and bad at."
"It's the Trainer's job to identify them and use their strengths well."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"If you're tired from a battle, it's important to take breaks."
"If you want to get stronger, it's crucial to not exhaust yourself."
"Good Trainers are very good at resting up. Always keep that in mind, too."
  • If spoken to again
"I make sure to take ample breaks, too."
"It might be mundane, but it refreshes you like after a good night's sleep."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Tyranitar and Onix have completely different fighting styles."
"It's still a work in progress, but I think it's fun to try to fine-tune your strategies with your Pokémon."
"The more you know about your Pokémon, the stronger you'll be, after all."
  • If spoken to again
"My Tyranitar is usually docile."
"But when it comes to battle, I can trust that he'll go berserk on the opponent."
"It makes me glad when I see him battle as much as he likes."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"If you ever find yourself in battle, don't hesitate to call me."
"I'm starved for battle right now. I want to have one as soon as possible!"
"Maybe it's because of my new outfit, but I am really feeling motivated."
  • If spoken to again
"Don't you ever feel more motivated when you wear new or different clothes?"
"I guess it's true that the clothes make the man."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
"Defending well means less damage to what you're protecting."
"Whether it's for yourself or your friends, good defense is the strength needed for victory!"
"That's why I pride myself on how sturdy I am."
  • If spoken to again
"All the Pokémon with me are the same way. They are proud of their sturdiness, too."
"Trainers and their Pokémon work together to reach a goal. That's what Pokémon battles are."
  • Random conversation (Sygna Suit)
