Quotes

Pokémon League

• Before battle

"Hiya! Acerola here, bringing an old royal touch to the Pokémon League!"

"Nanu said maybe he can't refuse a tapu choosing him to serve as kahuna... But he'd be darned if he had to serve as one of the Elite Four just because some guy asked him! So I guess I'll just have to battle hard enough to make up for his not being here!"

• Upon being defeated

"I'm...I'm speechless! You've done me in!"

• After being defeated

"Phew! Well, there goes my hope of beating you to smithereens and becoming Champion myself!"

• If talked to gain

"You've made it to third base! Now you've just got to bring it home! Or would this be second base? I don't really get baseball metaphors..."
