In the core series games

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet

Caph Squad's Base
  • First encounter
"You're pretty skilled."
"Not many Trainers can shrug off my Pokémon's attacks like that."
"Watch your mouth."
"I'm here because I don't want to risk anyone else getting hurt, that's all."
"Who are you?"
"Carmen!"
"Are you OK? You're not hurt, are you?!"
"No. I won't back down... I can't!"
"Until the big boss comes back, I have to protect all of you in the Caph Squad..."
"And everyone else in Team Star, too"
"As the boss of this squad, I...I just can't."
"Fine...I'll go."
"I'm sorry Carmen!"
"H-hasta la vistar! ☆"
  • Before battle
"OK...I'm ready."
"Doesn't matter who you are. I'll bury anyone who tries to take down Team Star!"
"This time, I won't run away..."
"RAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
  • In battle
After sending out first Pokémon: "This base is precious to us! I won't let this raid of yours go any further!"
After first directly dealing damage to the player's Pokémon: "I give as good as I get—that's a promise! We'll see who's left standing in the end!"
Upon first using Annihilape's Rage Fist: "HYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
Upon sending out the Caph Starmobile: "I...I refuse to lose! So please... lend me your strength."
  • After being defeated
"I'm so sorry, everyone..."
  • In a flashback after being defeated
"I'm so sorry... I think I went a little too far..."
"Yeah, but..."
"Hehe. Come on, quit being silly!"
"Ah, I'm sorry! You all really should take a break. I'll go for a run while you rest up!"
"Thank you for your concern, Atticus."
"But lately...I feel like I can take anything. Even if I'm really tired or feel like crying."
"Remember that time we all got together and riffed on the Gym Badge designs to create our very own Star Badges? Well, I don't know what it is, but just by looking at my Star Badge makes me feel so strong... Like I want to give it my all!"
  • After the flashback
"I gave it my all, but it wasn't enough—I wasn't enough..."
"You showed amazing strength."
"Even if the code didn't require me to give it to you, I'd want you to have this."
"I'd like to see you try out my trademark move, too! Here—this one's for you."
"... ... ... ... ... ..."
"I know you're part of Operation Starfall..."
"But I could tell from our battle that you're not a bad person."
"The way your Pokémon look/looks at you with such trust gives it away."
"Do me a favor and look away for a moment? This is a bit much for me to take..."
"I just r-really..."
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
Team Star flashbacks
"Nice! You'll come up with a great code for us, won't you, Giacomo?"
"You've earned our trust many times over. Without you, Team Star just wouldn't work."
  • After Mela is defeated
"Welcome back, Mellie!"
"That's not true, Ortie."
"The girls at the academy have always been jealous of how cute Mellie is. She just puts on a surly attitude so they'll stop picking on her. Although...I guess you're not wrong to say that her surly attitude is what people know her for..."
"Yes, Operation Star... It's finally happening."
  • After Atticus is defeated
"This outfit is everything I imagined it would be. Thank you so much!"
"Yeah, don't listen to the haters, Atticus. I think you're really cool!"
"That's such a shame... I wanted to see the looks on our bullies' faces once we got it moving."
"That's easy to say, Mellie. Do you have an actual plan?"
"Mellie, wait!"
"But we didn't even fight them in the end. We didn't do anything wrong!"
"Stop right there, B.B.! Why are you talking like we'll never speak again?"
NaranjaS/Uva AcademyV
  • In the schoolyard, after Penny is defeated
"We've found you at last... You've no idea how worried we've been!"
"Hasta la vistar, Cassiopeia! ☆ And hello, Penny!"
"Woo-hoo! Penny, isn't this great? Now we can all stay together!"
"Sorry for making you worry, B.B. We're all OK now."
"We can go to school together too! That way if anything happens, we'll be there to protect you!"
  • In the art room
"Wow, this Staraptor is incredible! It looks just like it's about to attack with Close Combat!"
"Oh, knock it off, Mellie!"
"Being shy is one thing, but you can't go around threatening people to cover it up!"
"Yes! Isn't it great, Mellie?"
"I can't wait to see what Mellie paints! I bet it'll be something amazing, huh?"
"Wait, were you supposed to be hiding?"
"I was wondering what was going on—you were just kinda hanging out in the open over here..."
"But you don't need to worry anyway. Mellie's been too nervous to notice you."
"Trying new things is scary for everyone. That's why I came with her for moral support. But you know? I think she'll be just fine."
"And she's not the only one doing something new! Carmen and I have started up a wrestling club"
"Mellie will have a blast here, I'm sure, so I gotta keep up with her! I'll enjoy the time I have left at the academy as much as I can!"
"Anyway, it was nice bumping into you both! Hasta la vistar! ☆"
"For sure! We're not in the same grade as <player>, either, so it's lucky we bumped into him."
Who might you be?/I feel like I know you...: "Oh, that's right! I forgot we're not wearing our usual outfits today..."
"Eri here! But I'm sure that was obvious."
"Our Team Star outfits aren't all that practical for tests and things, so we came in our new school uniforms today."
"Hey, that's right! Great idea, Giacomo!"
"Geez, one step at a time! Maybe we should start by explaining what's going on?"
"You remember Mellie, Ortie, and Atticus, right?"
"But it didn't go well. At all."
"And I'm only good at teaching people if it's to do with sports or exercise..."
Yeah, I'd be happy to help!: "Thanks so much, <player>! You really are the best!"
I dunno if I'd be good at it...: "No, you'll be GREAT at it. I just know you're the one for the job, <player>!"
"This'll be our little secret, OK? We'll be right here, so come let us know when you're ready to start!"
"Are you free right now to help us with some tutoring, <player>?"
Yes: "Fantastic! Come on, then—we'll show you to the classroom."
No: "No problem! We're fine hanging out here for as long as it takes!"
  • In the classroom, after completing The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero DLC
"If only that focus were helpful for your studies, Atticus... Sorry I keep distracting you."
"...Hey, Ortie? <Player> kindly agreed to come here and help us out. So talking to him with that kind of attitude... I S U N A C C E P T A B L E . . . R I G H T ?"
"S O R R Y , * W H O * ?"
"Hey guys? We seem to have lost Mellie... Where'd she go?"
"I hate to say it, but I guess that's probably true..."
"Sorry to keep relying on you like this. I hope you find Mellie without much trouble!"
"Mellie! Welcome back! And <player>—thanks so much for finding her."
  • When tutoring Atticus
Yeah, I guess they don't→That's right!: "Don't even think about it, Atticus! You can't just abandon an entire subject!"
"Hey, <player>... I don't mean to criticize, but could you try not to encourage these three to neglect their studies? It's really not in their best interest..."
"Well, it looks like Atticus is a bit more motivated to study than before... But he seems so sad, it doesn't exactly fill me with confidence that he'll do well on his tests. That's a real shame..."
Yeah, I guess they don't→Hold on a sec: "Atticus! You're making this into a bigger issue than it needs to be. We all have things we're bad at, and life will always throw challenges our way. But, uh...that doesn't mean we should just quit! For me, there's nothing more inspiring than someone who tackles their problems head-on and finds a way through!"
"Sorry I kinda butted in on your tutoring just now, <player>! I'm glad it all worked out though. Thanks to you, Atticus seems really inspired to study! He's the type that gets totally absorbed once he's fired up, so I'm sure he'll be just fine!"
No, you'll need numbers: "I think I know what <player> is getting at. It's like with our Team Star outfits, remember? We ended up spending a lot of money on them."
"But we had reams of fabric left over after the outfits were made. Don't you think we could have saved more money there?"
"Sorry I kinda butted in on your tutoring just now, <player>! I'm glad it all worked out though. Thanks to you, Atticus seems really inspired to study! He's the type that gets totally absorbed once he's fired up, so I'm sure he'll be just fine!"
  • If interacted with during the tutoring
"I hope everyone tries their best!"
"Yes, great effort all around! Does everyone feel like they made progress today?"
If the player answered all questions correctly: "Oh, that's brilliant, everyone! Well done! It sounds like this was our best session yet! It must've been thanks to your expert tutoring!"
If the player answered one or two questions incorrectly: "Hm, it looks like we had some mixed results. But we should be OK for the makeup tests, at least!"
If the player answered all questions incorrectly: "So no one made much headway, huh? Oh dear... That doesn't bode well for your tests..."
"<Player>, it really was kind of you to help us out. We prepared a little thank-you gift from all of us, so here you go!"
"And let's do Team Star's pose together, too! Here, I'll teach you how to do it."
"It's not what you think, Penny! Hear us out!"
"We would never! That's what it must've looked like though, huh. Sorry we made you worry."
"What?! That's a terrible idea!"
Caph Squad's Base
  • Upon initiating a Star Barrage rematch
"Your goal is to defeat 50 Pokémon in 10 minutes! I'm sure you can do it! And Caph Squad—listen up! Get your heads in the game, because the battle starts...now!"
  • Upon losing or forfeiting a Star Barrage rematch
"The Caph Squad is pretty formidable, right? They train every day, and it really shows."
  • Upon winning a Star Barrage rematch
"It seems you defeated 50 Pokémon in... <number> minute(s) and <number> second(s)."
"That's earned you a total of <number> LP! Thanks again, and hasta la vistar! ☆"
  • When approached
"Hey, <player>!"
  • If spoken to
"Great to see you, <player>! Did you come to train with me?"
Yes: "I'm always ready to battle! Let's see if you can handle my full power!"
No: "OK, gotcha! Come back whenever you want!"
  • In battle
After sending out first Pokémon: "Right then, <player>! Hope you're ready for a good, proper battle!"
Upon first using Annihilape's Rage Fist: "When facing down a foe, there's only one thing to do—push for victory with everything you have!"
Upon sending out her last Pokémon: "I focus best when I'm in a tight spot! I'll show you I can still win!"
Upon being defeated: "I don't like losing...but you're a strong one!"
  • After being defeated
"That was a great battle! Thanks so much for sparring with me today! Hasta la vistar! ☆"
  • If spoken to again on the same day
"Sorry, <player>. I'm all tired out, so I won't be training any more today."

Academy Founding Chapter - Great Infernal Arrival
  • A Run-In from Paldea
  • Off-screen, as "???"
"Stop this match at once!"
  • Pasio's New Pro Wrestling Star
"RAAAAAAAAAH!!!"
"I'm...Eri!"
"I'm a Trainer from Paldea, and I love pro wrestling!"
"I'm always happy to help!"
"Plus, I'd love to learn more from you—from your perspectives as wrestlers AND as people with such amazing life experiences!"
"Oh, by the way! I didn't know you were interested in pro wrestling, Penny!"
"If you want to learn more, I can teach you some things!"
"Happy to see you've made new friends, Penny!"
"You seem to be enjoying life on Pasio!"
"A school on Pasio, huh!"
"Sounds like a great idea. What's the problem?"
"I see. So this is the problem you were talking about."
"OK! I'll help you out!"
"I'll reach out to a bunch of people and hype them up about our new school!"
  • Thoughts on Founding the School
"Thank you!"
"Do you all know about the school that's going to be built on Pasio?"
"Pasio is already an amazing place where sync pairs can connect and interact."
"But imagine how much more exciting it'd be if we had a school!"
"We could make more friends and learn so much!"
"So, I just wanted to say, let's all come together to make this school happen!"
"Um, Professor... Is your Incineroar OK?"
"We hit him with a pretty strong move yesterday, so..."
"Huh? Y-yeah. I was worried, so I came to ask you..."
"Oh—OH, BECAUSE..."
"I heard the Masked Royal asked YOU to look after his Incineroar... Ahaha!"
"Aaanyway, I overheard you talking about the new school—"
"Oh! They're talking about it, too!"
"Sounds like it's on everyone's mind!"
"...Is that really how I come across?"
  • Taking One for the Team
"... ... ..."
  • Off-screen
"Oh, hi, Professor Kukui..."
  • On-screen
"Yeah..."
"I've been trying to figure out how to get everyone on board with it."
"Have you had a similar experience, Professor Kukui?"
"I see. And after all that effort, you finally made it happen."
"Thanks so much for sharing! I won't hold back anymore. I know exactly what I need to do!"
"...Of course not."
"(But it's the only way I can think of to bring everyone together!)"
"Yeah! I've made up my mind and want to share my idea with you two."
"So, I'm thinking that if we want everyone to come together on this, we need a strong motivator!"
"Like anger!"
"Remember how it motivated us before?"
"Our anger about all the bullying is what brought Team Star together."
"So, that's why I think I should play the villain!"
"Like a heel in pro wrestling. There's always gotta be a bad guy to take down, right?"
"Let me think... Oh, maybe I could pretend to be a really mean honor student."
"Everyone will want to come to school just to show me up!"
"Everyone's working tirelessly to set up the school, so it's no big deal—"
"Penny?"
"You're both right. I'm sorry."
"I guess I was letting myself run wild, huh."
"It's better to be sincere than to pull tricks, right?"
"Be fair and honorable, like a good Pokémon battle!"
"You're right!"
"Let's be open and honest with everyone about how we feel!"
  • I Want to Stay Strong
"We're not done just yet!"
"...And it's now time for a quiz!"
"Pokémon attack moves can be divided into two categories!"
"What are they?"
"Correct! And to share a bit of advice: it's important to make your strong points stronger—that goes for both people and Pokémon!"
"And Annihilape is good at..."
"Physical moves—it can imbue its fists with power!"
"Actually, the reason I was able to get out of that pinch..."
"was my knowledge gained at Paldea's academy!"
"Exactly! I learned so much there with my friends—while having a great time together!"
"But actually, I only started going back to school very recently."
"I refused to go for a while."
"All because I was being bullied at that academy."
"But I overcame the bullying with the help of my friends."
"I know school isn't always fun. At the time, I was so sad and frustrated."
"I faced many difficulties."
"But looking back, I can confidently say I'm glad I went!"
  • Off-screen
"If you just want to study, then maybe you don't really need school."
"But school provides a space where you can learn and grow alongside others."
"You'll have fun times, treasured moments, challenges, and setbacks..."
  • On-screen
"Your precious time at school can lead to so many good things!"
"I had once-in-a-lifetime experiences—and met friends who helped me when I was in trouble."
"Those are the "treasures" I gained from the academy!"
"I want Pasio Academy to be that for others!"
"In fact, I'll make sure it is!"
"Let's create a school together from scratch—and make it a place everyone will enjoy!"
"I'd like a place in the school where students and Pokémon can go totally wild."
"Somewhere that's spacious—like a gymnasium or a field!"
"Thank you!"
"All right, then! Let's head off to our training!"
Academy Founding Chapter - Explosive Art, Ninja's Craft
  • Two Team Star Bosses Appear!
"Right? It's because Trainers from all sorts of regions come here."
"We managed to make a ton of new friends, too, didn't we."
"The director and Lear would be thrilled!"
"He's a big deal on this island!"
"Yeah! And Mela's a member of the art club, so it should be a good fit for her, too!"
Academy Founding Chapter - The Bratty Mechanic
  • The Team Star Bosses Assemble!
"Please enroll!"
  • I Wouldn't Mind Teaching!
"Is there anything else we can help with?"
"Teachers, huh..."
  • Hasta La Vistar! ★
"Of course! Let's brainstorm!"
"After talking amongst ourselves, we all realized we want to try teaching, too!"
"We HAVE reached a milestone, though!"
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Eri
"Oh hey, <player>!"
"Want to join us for training?"
"There are so many strong and kind sync pairs on Pasio. We've gotta get stronger so we don't fall behind!"
Can you even get any stronger?: "Yeah!"
How far are you planning to push yourself?: "As far as I can!"
"I want us to encourage each other and grow stronger together!"
"If we keep growing stronger, we'll be able to do things we never could before."
"For me, that means learning more wrestling moves—"
"Oh, no need to fear."
"Annihilape's energy is fueled by his anger."
"People say that when an Annihilape's anger rises beyond a critical point..."
"it gains power that's unfettered by the limits of its physical body."
"When someone I care about gets hurt..."
"I guess my anger rises beyond a critical point, too."
"Intense anger can be tremendously powerful."
"But anger can also be dangerous if you let it control you."
"That was the case when we of Team Star carried out Operation Star to get revenge on our bullies."
"The operation was a success, but it came at a heavy cost."
"Both Team Star and the bullies lost their place in the academy..."
"That's why I think acting out of anger is dangerous."
"But that doesn't mean we have to bottle up our feelings."
"Sometimes, feeling sad or angry for someone can make you stronger and help you protect others!"
"The key is in how you control your emotions."
"That's why Annihilape and I are training not only our bodies but also our minds and emotions!"
"Keeping a cool head, hiding our fiery hearts, and attacking when the opponent lets down their guard..."
"It'd be cool if we could battle like that."
"That kind of mindset would make a powerful weapon!"
