Valerie/Quotes

These are Valerie's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon X and Y

Laverre Gym

• Before battle

"Oh, if it isn't a young Trainer... So you've flown all the way through my Gym, fluttering down to me on a fortunate wind. Then I suppose you have earned yourself the right to a battle, as a reward for your efforts. I am Valerie, who leads this Fairy-type Gym. I hope your visit will prove entertaining to you. The elusive Fairy types may appear frail as a breeze and delicate as a bloom, but they are strong."

• Upon being defeated

"I hope the sun is shining tomorrow... That would be reason enough to smile."

• After being defeated

"Yes... That was a fine battle. I shall reward you for this great victory. This is the Fairy Badge. It is yours now. Its beauty is captivating, is it not? ... ... ... ... ... ... Ah... Do forgive me. I was so captivated, I forgot for a moment that it is yours."

"This captivating Fairy Badge will endear any Pokémon up to Lv. 80 to you... Yes, even those Pokémon that you may receive from others will obey you. I also wish to award you this TM... Please consider it a personal gift from me, not simply the winnings of a battle."

"Oh? My, what a curious feeling... I can't seem to recall any longer which move is contained in that TM. I hope you might forgive me. My designs are said to be rather mystifying. Do you agree with that? I've always wanted to be a Pokémon, you see. That desire is my inspiration and what I try to achieve by designing. And yet...the only time I feel I am truly one with Pokémon is when we are embroiled in desperate battle. I wonder why that is... Hmm... Could it be-- Never mind. It is nothing, kind Trainer."

• Post-game

"What do you think it is exactly that separates humans from Pokémon? Is there even need for such a thing? Why should they be separate from one another?"

Battle Chateau

• Before battle (first battle)

"Oh, if it isn't my young Trainer... It is lovely to get to meet you again like this. Then I suppose you have earned yourself the right to a battle, as a reward for your efforts. The elusive Fairy may appear frail as the breeze and delicate as a bloom, but it is strong."

• Before battle (rematch)

"Oh, if it isn't my young Trainer... We seem to keep meeting like this, don't we? Then I suppose you have earned yourself the right to a battle, as a reward for your efforts. The elusive Fairy may appear frail as the breeze and delicate as a bloom, but it is strong."

• Upon being defeated

"I hope that you will find things worth smiling about tomorrow..."

• After being defeated

If giving the player an item: "I hope you will accept this gift from me... Please consider it as a personal gift from me, not simply the winnings of a battle."

"That was truly a captivating battle. I might just be captivated by you."

• If the player is defeated

"Oh goodness, what a pity..."

• The Maiden from a Land with History

"Oh! Is that you over there, Erika?"

"I'm glad we ran into each other."

"I'm Valerie. A pleasure to meet you."

"That's right. In Kalos, I'm known as the maiden from a land with history."

"Ah... You two..."

"No. It's actually your clothes..."

"They pair so well with your partner Pokémon. I think they're wonderful."

"Really? That'd be wonderful. I'm still not quite used to things here on Pasio. I hardly know my left from my right."

• To Be a Pokémon

"It's not the price that matters. It's how good it looks on the wearer that's important."

"That's right. Clair, Koga, your outfits really match the two of you well."

"The two of you have such a charming style. I'm sure even your clothes are happy to be worn by you two."

"Something I'd like to do?"

"That sure would be a big help."

"In that case..."

"I'd like to become a Pokémon."

What do you mean?: "Well, I mean exactly what I said. I'd like to be a Pokémon."

What?! Me too!: "Really? Oh, I'm so happy to hear that, <player>."

"My fashion designs are all about that feeling of becoming a Pokémon."

"After receiving a sync stone, I thought I'd be able to..."

"... ... ..."

"Oh! I'm sorry. I was caught up in the beauty of my sync stone for a moment."

"And...well..."

"Sorry. I completely forgot what we were talking about before."

"Ah, that's right. So, what do you think? Would it be possible?"

"What? Really?"

"Oh, goodness. What a pity..."

"Hmm. Let me think for a minute..."

"Oh! Well, there is someone I want to meet."

"Elesa?"

• A Fellow Fashionista?

"Hey, you. You said you know Elesa?"

"Really? Could you tell me where you saw her?"

"I've heard that Elesa is on Pasio, and I've actually been wanting to meet her."

"I've been wanting to meet her for a while now. She's really stylish."

"I want to know how she thinks and lives--and how to become like that."

"I feel like meeting her would really get my creativity going."

"Ah."

"Huh?"

"My, how nice..."

"Thank you! I can't wait!"

• Leaf's Idea

"Wha--? You've heard of me, Elesa?"

"Me too. I'm really happy."

"Say, Elesa..."

"One day, I really hope you'll wear one of the dresses I make."

"Huh? Of course I was. I absolutely want to be a Pokémon."

"You mean it? Can I really, really be a Pokémon?"

"Hmm. I still don't really understand, but I'm up for it if you are, <player>."

"The elusive Fairy types may appear frail as a breeze and delicate as a bloom, but they are strong."

• The Stage Awaits

"I lost, but..."

"How do I put this...? When I used my sync move..."

"it felt like I was one with Sylveon."

"What was that feeling?"

"That's what it means to become a Pokémon..."

"I see. On Pasio, you and your Pokémon can unite your hearts and minds, and when you do, it feels like you've become your Pokémon."

"My, that's wonderful. Just wonderful. I'm really interested in Pokémon battles on Pasio now."

"I'm in your debt, everyone. Thank you."

"It might be a bit too soon, but I'd like to get even closer with Sylveon right away."

"Elesa, would you please do me the favor of battling me?"

"So, your team will get to battle with Elesa next, <player>?"

"Oh my! I suppose I'll just have to join your team then, won't I?"

"That way, I can have a battle with Elesa on the greatest stage imaginable!"

"Oh, well, only if that's all right with everyone else."

"Really?"

Let's do it, Valerie!: "<Player>..."

"Thank you. Sylveon and I will do our best!"

I'm counting on you, Valerie!: "<Player>..."

"I'm counting on you, too, <player>..."

"Hee hee. I think we'll get along quite well."

"Me, too. I'm really looking forward to the coming battles."

"I want to go all out, too, so let's be sure to give it everything we've got."

Main Story Chapter 24 - A Shining Spotlight

• A Dazzling New Stage: Part 1

"By the way, where's Elesa? Is she still getting ready?"

"Oh goodness, Elesa. What lovely and elegant clothes you're wearing!"

Pokémon Center

• Random conversation

"Battling together with my Pokémon partner helps us unify our thoughts and feelings. It feels like I'm growing closer to becoming a Pokémon."

"But something is still missing for me to become a Pokémon."

"Oh, what about you and I becoming a sync pair, <Player>?"

• If spoken to again

"I think we could make for a good sync pair, but..."

"But if we were, we wouldn't be able to battle each other anymore. It's too bad--I really thought it was a good idea."

• Random conversation

"My partner Pokémon is truly elegant, don't you think?"

"Back when he was an Eevee, he was so round and cute."

"I cared for him every day, and we were always together."

"The day Eevee evolved into Sylveon was a clear and beautiful one. Sylveon was sparkling in the sunlight."

• If spoken to again

"When things aren't going well and I'm feeling down on myself..."

"Sylveon comes over and wraps his feelers around my arms."

"Sylveon does this because he can understand my feelings."

"In that moment, I think I was able to understand Sylveon's feelings of kindness, too."

• Random conversation

"I'm the Gym Leader of the Laverre Gym in Kalos. The badge I give out is called..."

"the Fairy Badge. It's a really beautiful badge, too."

"The interior of my Gym is really cute. Just looking at it is sure to put a smile on your face."

"The Gym is made up of several little rooms... It's made to look like a dollhouse!"

• If spoken to again

"The Trainers in each room are dressed accordingly. It's like one big fashion show."

"Trainers who challenge the Gym have to use warp panels to move from room to room."

"I would be glad to use those warp panels with you someday."

• Random conversation

"I've been feeling a bit different ever since I arrived on Pasio."

"It's a bit hard for me to explain, but it's like the refreshing feeling of putting on a new dress."

"A change of environment can really change how you feel, you know?"

• If spoken to again

"You can get used to anything, but there is such a thing as getting too used to something..."

"I suppose that's difficult to explain with words."

• Random conversation

"I've been thinking."

"Every Trainer shares something in common with their partner Pokémon, in one way or another."

"I wonder if Sylveon and I are a sync pair because we're similar to each other."

"The Trainers here on Pasio all seem to have come with Pokémon that share similarities with them."

• If spoken to again

"If you became a Pokémon, I wonder which one you'd be, <player>."

"I think you'd be a compassionate Pokémon that gives everyone a reason to smile."

"If I ever did become a Pokémon too, I'd be happy if we would keep being friends as Pokémon."

• Random conversation

"I designed the clothes I'm wearing with my desire to become a Pokémon in mind."

"Whether in design or in Pokémon battles, learning from the strengths of others is the way to grow into the ideal you."

"Recently, I've been observing your techniques in battles, <player>."

• If spoken to again

"Watching other people, you start to see their good and bad points."

"I wonder how we Trainers look to our partner Pokémon..."

"If I were your Pokémon, I think I'd see a lot of good things about you, <player>!"

• Special log-in conversation (generic)

"Oh, <player>. How nice to see you today."

"I hope that you will find things worth smiling about today."

• Special gift conversation

"Oh, if it isn't a young Trainer... You've come at quite the appropriate time."

"This is a gift from me to you. Be sure to use it well, OK?"

"I hope you like it. I'll try to find something else for you soon."
