Personalities and characteristics

Ampharos is the chief of the Expedition Society, and also refers to himself as the "Dashing Wanderer". With an extremely bad sense of direction, he is very careless and prone to getting lost when traveling on his own. Ampharos is also laid-back, and will even overwrite his own rules on a whim.
Mawile is the archaeologist. She spends her time studying the history of the world. She is also one of the most powerful members of the Society, as noted by Archen.
Jirachi was born in Star Cave. He is the astronomer, and a self-proclaimed genius capable of fixing the Pokémon Nexus. He sleeps most of the time and is not easily awakened.
Buizel is the marine explorer. He is brave, but also reckless, willing to challenge powerful opponents even when instructed not to.
Archen is the aerial explorer, despite his inability to fly.
Dedenne transmits signals between Exploration Society members.
Bunnelby is the on-foot and underground explorer.
Swirlix is the steward who prepares dinner for the Society every night. However, she is a glutton with an extremely ravenous hunger, so she eats much of the food she makes. She also thinks of almost nothing but food, even in the most inappropriate times.

Quotes

Ampharos

If spoken to while en route to the harbor with Archen:

"Oh? You managed to rope Archen into your adventures today, hm?"

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"No, I fear he will go. Entei was after the culprit behind these turning to stone incidents. Perhaps that is also why he was on the Air Continent. As long as he doesn't believe it's a prank, Entei will go."

Mawile

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"Dedenne? Were these warnings only scattered over Lively Town?"

Close to Showdown Mountain's summit:

"Let's pick up the pace. ...? Who's there?!"

After Cave of the Deep:

"It would be faster to just have <partner's name> read it. Could you?"

"If what's written here is correct... then this Dark Matter is responsible for all the turning to stone incidents."

"I don't know... It's the first I've heard of it, too."

"Maybe something happened to them as they were writing..."

"Well, it does say to look out for them."

Jirachi

When the player and partner go to wake him:

"Yeah...you got me...ugh..."

"I’m Jirachi… *mumble mumble*"

"Yeah? OK… but I’m still far too sleepy to deal with all that right now. Sorry… *snore*"

"One more thing… I apparently toss and turn a lot while I’m sleeping… So if you two are standing right there… I might just up and attack you… If I do, sorry… *snore*"

"Here I go. *snore*"

After the player and partner wake him up:

"Whoa-a-a-a! Hey now! My eyes are wide open! I woke up from that dream so suddenly!"

"Huh? Who are you two? I just saw you in my dream! In my dream you two were… engaged in a heroic battle. At least I think so."

"Whoa! That’s so strange… The Pokémon I just saw in my dream are standing here right in front of me."

"Wait a minute. Are you two… fairies?"

"The Expedition Society…?"

"Oh! Are you saying you’re new recruits?"

"I see! You should’ve said something sooner!"

"Very well, as is my custom, allow me to introduce myself! Here I go!"

Introducing himself:

"I was born in Star Cave! Here I observe the movements of the stars and the sun! And while I’m at it, I make everyone’s dreams come true...maybe. ♪ I’m the Expedition Society’s astronomer, Jirachi—the genius!"

Buizel

When Krokorok tries to mug the player for the second time:

"What do you think you're doing, Krokorok!"

"You wouldn't be trying to extort our newest members, now would you? Not that I would expect anything else from you."

"Somehow, I doubt that. Regardless... If I do find you picking on these two... You will live to regret it!"

"Krookodile!"

"..."

"I could hardly leave you alone in that situation. Those two are serious trouble. Krokorok's not much of a threat on his own, but Krookodile... He's the worst thing that ever happened to Lively Town. And he's strong, to boot. You'll want to be careful around him."

Afterwards:

"That Krookodile is a real villain. You kids should be careful out there."

After clearing Fire Island Volcano:

"Oh, hey, <partner's name>! Looks like it opens up a bit over there."

"Who's there?!"

"<player's name>! <partner's name>! Here he comes!"

After defeating Magmortar and the four Magmar:

"Heh, well... I couldn't have done it without you... or maybe I could have. Heh..."

"N-no! Trust me, I know nothing! Nothing! Hahahahaha! I mean, I don't really know what's going on... But I'm sure the chief knows what he's doing. We'll probably figure it out if we just go a little farther. Anyhow, let's get moving!"

At Fire Island Volcano's summit:

"Yes... It appears it is."

"So you're Entei, huh?"

"Buizel, from the Expedition Society! Depending on what you say next... I'm ready to take you down, Entei!"

"Is that your answer, Entei?! All right, if that's how it is! All that remains is for us to take you out! Get ready!"

"Ughh..."

"<partner's name>...<player's name>...don't try it. There's absolutely no way you can beat him."

After the player and their partner are defeated by Entei:

"Uhhnn..."

"<player's name>!"

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"THAT Entei?!"

"Were you even listening to what Dedenne was reading?! You'll be solid stone with your face full of snacks!"

After Cave of the Deep:

"It's really you!"

"Hey! Jackpot! The gang's all here!"

Archen

At dinner the day the player first meets Krookodile:

"You two sure have some good appetites on you! ♪ I like to see that! Eat up so that you have plenty of energy to take on some grand adventures!"

"Oh, across the sea."

"That's right. But I can't actually fly myself, so I have to ride on Lapras to get there."

"The Lapras Travel Liner, of course. It leaves from the port here. What, you guys haven't been? Do you want to come with me?"

"If you're really going to fill out that World Map of yours, I think you've got to. Shouldn't you get it out of the way?"

"All right. If that's what you want, come along with me tomorrow. And eat up well tonight! You're going to need your energy!"

The next morning:

"All righty. Shall we make for the harbor?"

If spoken to while en route to the harbor:

"We should get to the harbor."

At the harbor:

"Hmm. I'd rather it was just for fun. But I'm afraid it's just another day of work."

"Don't ask me why, but the boss approved it this time."

"But I'll go along with you this first time, just in case. First we'll have to get you some passes, and then..."

"Huh? Me?! Guess I have to say yes here..."

At the Kecleon Shop*:

"And that's all there is to it. I don't care where we go. Just give us the cheapest passes you've got."

"Ha...ha ha..."

When woken up by Lapras:

"Huh? What?"

"I feel like I've been sleeping for hours... Where did we end up, anyway?"

"*yawn* I guess my brain is still sleeping, because I've got no idea where we are... I'm completely lost. Why don't we fire up the Expedition Gadget's map and have a look? What in the— Th-the Air Continent?! Wait... What? We...we came all the way to the Air Continent?!"

"All you had to do was take us to some little island near the town! How could you dump me here, Lapras?!"

"Urk! I did? I never even looked at the passes that I bought... Sorry, kids. And this is your first trip overseas and everything... Look at me, ruining your first big trip because I wasn't paying attention..."

"Erm... Just for a little bit then. Well, this is Baram Town, anyway. It's got a café and shops and all, just like back in Lively Town. You can go exploring dungeons from here, too. All the dungeons from the Air Continent can be reached from right here, in fact. But we're not going to any of them today. You got that? We'll have a quick look around the town and then get you two back home safe."

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"How are they gonna turn HIM to stone?!"

"This warning was in the plaza... I can't imagine Entei losing..."

After Cave of the Deep:

"Mawile! Dedenne!"

Dedenne

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"Turned to Stone Warning The next target has been decided! The volcanic Entei, one of three Legendary Pokémon! Consider yourselves warned: I will turn Entei to stone!"

"The place will be Showdown Mountain, on the Water Continent! All are welcome to bear witness... as long as they, too, are prepared to be turned to stone! That is all!"

After Cave of the Deep:

"Oh, there are ancient writings over there, too!"

"Dark Matter?"

"What does it mean?"

"There's something written over there, too!"

"It looks like whoever wrote that was in a big rush..."

"What in the world are Void Shadows?"

"It's not all bad."

"...Yeah... Yup! Right nearby! What a relief!"

"Yeah, that sounds right! That way!"

Bunnelby

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"What?!"

"That warning could just be a prank. Maybe Entei won't show up. That's a possibility, too, right?"

Close to Showdown Mountain's summit:

"I think we're finally getting close to the summit..."

"That's it. Let's go. Yup. No doubt about it. Once we get through here, we'll be at the summit."

"Hey! Wait right there! Was that...Krookodile?"

"Yeah."

Swirlix

If spoken to while en route to the harbor with Archen:

"Oh, you're adventuring with Archen today? I know Archen is the suspicious type, so I'm just going to go ahead and say it... I wasn't stealing any food to eat! R-really... I wasn't!"

The morning of the first day in Chapter 15:

"I wanna take some snacks and go watch!"

Trivia

Jirachi mentions being born in Star Cave, the location in Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky where Jirachi is found.
- Jirachi's behavior while asleep further parallels the Jirachi encountered in Star Cave; it groggily warns the player and apologizes before attacking in its sleep, and it causes the surrounding area to tremble as it emits a burst of light before it finally springs awake, though with no recollection of any interactions it had while asleep.
