Maylene/Quotes: Difference between revisions

These are Maylene's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon Diamond, Pearl, and Platinum

This section is incomplete. Please feel free to edit this section to add missing information and complete it. Reason: Missing quotes; what does she say between giving out the Cobble Badge and TM60 in Platinum, does she have different text if beaten fourth in Diamond/Pearl? Also, Masters quotes are missing

Veilstone Gym

• Before battle

"Hello. I'm pleased to meet you. I'm Maylene, and I'm the Gym Leader. I don't really know what it means to be strong, or how I got to be the Gym Leader. But I will do the best I can as the Gym Leader. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"

• After the opponent sends out their last Pokémon

"Oh! But this isn't the end, my friend!"

• When the opponent's last Pokémon is at critical health

"I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"

• Upon being defeated

"I shall admit defeat... You are much too strong."

• After being defeated

"...OK. You win. That was a tough loss. I learned a lot from it. Please, accept this Gym Badge."

"Um... I should explain about that Badge. If you have that official Pokémon League Badge, you can use the hidden move Fly outside of battle. Oh, and please take this as well."

"That TM60 contains the move Drain Punch. Um... That move inflicts damage, and it robs the target's HP."

• If talked to again

"Gee, I'm hungry... Oh, sorry, it's nothing. I didn't say anything. <Player>, I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"

Route 217^Pt

"Oh, <player>!"

"Um, are you maybe on your way to Snowpoint City? That's where I'm going, too. If I use Fly, I can get there instantly, but I'm walking for my training. I have no problem with this. I'm used to the cold because I go barefoot and lightly dressed. ...Achoo! Oh, that was nothing. Really, I'm not cold at all. I'll be going now. Please take care!"

Snowpoint City^Pt

• Before defeating Candice

"Brrr... Oh, hi, <player>! Are you taking the Gym challenge now? I'm hoping to see Candice soon, but I'm staying put until I warm up again first. Oh, you should know that Candice is a user of Ice-type Pokémon. I really admire Candice. She's so studious. She wanted to practice against me to learn about the Fighting type. It's because the Ice type matches up badly against the Fighting type."

• After defeating Candice

"Oh! That's the Icicle Badge! You must have beaten Candice. With that Badge, aren't you allowed to use the hidden move Rock Climb? Rock Climb can be learned by Rock-type or Fighting-type Pokémon, I think."

Resort Area^Pt

"...Um, your Villa... Would it be OK if I took a look around?"

Yes: "Oh, thank you."

No: "Oh... It makes me a little sad..."

Villa^Pt

• Any of the following

"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, it doesn't feel so cold to be in deep snow! Well, just a little..."

"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, my handwriting has improved tenfold! ...Yes. It has absolutely nothing to do with how strong I am as a Gym Leader."

"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, I can tell how strong my opponent is beforehand. Oh, yes, <player>, you're ridiculously tough."

"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Thanks to my training, I'm beginning to understand the feelings of Pokémon. It lets me choose moves with much more confidence!"

"<Player>, please hear how my training is going. Lately, my father has been overseeing my training! Well, only when he wins at the Game Corner, but... I'm still delighted he does this with me!"

• When Candice is at the Villa

"What makes a Gym Leader a good one?"

"...You know those Accessories for Pokémon? Would it be funny if someone were to wear those?"

"...! Th-thank you so much!"

"...Candice?"

"Oh, sorry, it's nothing! I didn't say anything!"

"Candice, what does it mean to be strong?"

"Yes, please!"

"...This is delicious!"

"Yes, please."

Battleground

Scenario 1

• Before battle

"I think it's OK if I were to keep losing to the same Trainer. Battling that person tells me how much my Pokémon and I have changed. That's why I would like to challenge you for a rematch now, <player>."

Yes: "OK! Rei! Oh, that's my bow before a match. <Player>, I'm throwing everything I have at you!"

No: "Sigh... I braced myself for a battle. This is a little deflating..."

If talked to again after the player answered "No": "Yes, what is it, <player>? Would you maybe like a battle?"

• When the opponent's last Pokémon is at critical health

"This is like back at the Gym, isn't it? I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"

• Upon being defeated

"I'm forced to admit defeat again... You are much too strong."

• After being defeated

"I love visiting here. Buck's grandpa cooks for us, and it's all delicious. That's not all! We can eat all we want. Isn't that amazing, <player>?"

Scenario 2

• Before battle

"Being together with Pokémon gave me the strength to keep going. Please, <player>, accept my challenge!"

Yes: "OK, here we come, <player>!"

No: "OK! Got it! We'll train much harder so we can battle with you, <player>!"

If talked to again after the player answered "No": "<Player>! I know I'm being a pest, but please, accept our challenge!"

• When the opponent's last Pokémon is at critical health

"This is like back at the Gym, isn't it? I'm in a bit of a bind, aren't I?"

• Upon being defeated

"I'm forced to admit defeat again... You are much too strong."

• After being defeated

"Hello, <player>! I've heard that it's more healthy to go barefoot. Come to think of it, the Pokémon are all barefooted."

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver

Celadon City

"Munch munch munch... The eatathon contest! I never dreamed of such a wonderful thing. After a strict diet during training, I can eat like a HIPPOWDON. The winner eats for free, too. That's just a dream come true!"

Pokémon Black 2 and White 2

Pokémon World Tournament

• Before battle (first round)

"I'm pleased to meet you. Whenever you're ready!"

• Before battle (second round)

"Nice to see you again. I will do the best I can as a Trainer. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"

• Before battle (final round)

"Nice to see you again. I don't really know what it means to be strong. But I will do the best I can as a Trainer. I take battling very seriously. Whenever you're ready!"

• Upon being defeated

"I shall admit defeat... You are much too strong."

• If the player is defeated

"Thank you very much. I learned a lot from it."

• After battle (if the player won)

"I can't explain what it means to be strong. I don't know how much effort goes into being strong... But being with Pokémon lets us keep making the effort, doesn't it?"

• After battle (if the player lost)

"Learn from your foe by winning, and learn from your foe by losing, too... Everything is an experience... Yes. Pokémon made me realize that.... That is how I feel."

• In the lobby (after the tournament)

"Looking at the way you battle, I learned something! You like your Pokémon! I think it's wonderful!"

"Same! I'm not thrilled about losing, but I feel like I got some great experience from that fight!"

Pokémon Center

• Random conversation

"Whenever we do yoga training, my Meditite helps me out like an instructor!"

"Although now that I think about it, I really just copy whatever she does..."

"Meditite’s a pretty tough instructor, though! She’s always on hard mode, even when she knows I’m trying to copy her."

• If spoken to again

"Pokémon have their own personality quirks, just like we do."

"Treasuring those unique personality quirks is our job as Trainers!"

• Random conversation

"You can tell a lot about a person by the way they fight using martial arts."

"You can figure out what they're fighting for, why they learned the moves they did..."

"and whether they aim to protect or hurt."

"The same is true for Pokémon battles. I can just sense it..."

"I know what my opponents are fighting for."

• If spoken to again

"I practice martial arts and train for Pokémon battles to better myself."

"I know it's kind of selfish. I wish everyone would push themselves to achieve something great."

• Random conversation

"I've done a lot of rigorous training, so the cold and the heat don't bother me at all."

"I mean, the training itself can sometimes be pretty grueling..."

"but in the end, I can make it through all of that because my Pokémon are there beside me."

"If I complained all the time, I'd feel bad for my Pokémon."

• If spoken to again

"Sometimes my training regimen is so tough that I just want to give up."

"When that happens, my Pokémon and I take a break and play to our hearts' content."

"Letting go and having fun for a while recharges my energy for next time!"

• Random conversation

"I really want to fight against you in a martial arts match, <player>!"

"Not an actual fight! You know what I mean, right? A standard match with a set of rules."

"I've been trying to figure out why I want to fight you so badly, and I think it's because I want to get to know you better."

"I'm pretty sure that's gotta be the reason."

• If spoken to again

"I'm not really all that great with words, but what I'm trying to say is..."

"I always get this warm, happy feeling when we battle each other, <player>."

• Random conversation

"I've thought a lot about what makes a good Gym Leader and how I can be better in the future."

"I've never been able to find a good answer, though... I still don't really have a clue."

"But I feel like the longer I'm with you, the closer I'll be to finding that answer."

• If spoken to again

"When I look at you, the way you always give 110 percent of your effort to everything, especially Pokémon battling..."

"you make me want to get up and take action rather than worry and overthink things."

"I still don't really know what makes a good Gym Leader, but you know what? I'm just gonna do the best I can!"

• Random conversation

"One of my best friends is actually a Gym Leader, too, like me!"

"She gives me a lot of advice, and we have a lot of Pokémon battles."

"Oh! Of course you're my friend, too, silly! I care a lot about you both!"

• If spoken to again

"I'm really glad I decided to team up with my Pokémon. We've really put our hearts into training."

"Without Pokémon battling, we never would have met you or any of the other amazing people we've gotten to know."

"If I'd stuck with martial arts alone or only focused on Pokémon battling, none of this would have been possible."

"All of my memories and experiences up until now have become my greatest treasure!"

• Special log-in conversation (generic)

"Oh! Hi, <player>! Maylene here, reporting for duty!"

"Let’s fuel up with some healthy food and get right to training today!"

"Morning! I like to start my day off with some jogging!"

• Special log-in conversation (morning)

"Good morning. Gee, I’m so hungry, I could eat a whole Berry tree!"

• Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"Yo! I recommend weight training for an afternoon workout!"

• Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"Maybe I’ll splurge and have some snacks today! Nah. I gotta stick to my training regimen!"

• Special log-in conversation (evening)

"I discovered that if I do stretching at night, I end up sleeping better!"

• Special log-in conversation (evening)

"If I’m hungry before I go to sleep at night, I dream about food. You can pig out all you want in a dream, after all!"

• Special gift conversation

"I got you something! It's yours if you want it."

"You should use items if you have them! They're no good if you hoard them forever."

"Sometimes I feel bad if I have to use my items..."

"and because of that, they just end up in a big pile... It's bad—I know."

• Special The Isle of Armor promotional conversation with Bruno

"Thank you so much for helping me train, Bruno!"

"Yeah! I'll make sure to keep training hard!"

"Oh, speaking of which, I overheard somebody talking around here that there's a Pokémon battle dojo on the Isle of Armor in the Galar region."

"I'd love the chance to train in Galar someday!"

"Thank you, Bruno."

"Yeah! I'm gonna keep right on training, then! Look out, Galar—here I come!"
