Bianca (Japanese: ベル Bel) is a rival character in Pokémon Black and White.

In the games

Role

Like the player, Bianca lives in the starting town of Nuvema Town, and is also a childhood friend of the player (and soon-to-be-rival). She is described as being 'flighty' by Professor Juniper and Cheren; though she also has a strong side, as shown when she embarks on a Pokémon journey despite her father's strong opposition. This is emphasized in Nimbasa City, where her father disallows her to become a Pokémon Trainer. With the help of Nimbasa City Gym Leader Elesa, Bianca convinces her father to let her follow her dream.

In keeping with the theme of truth and ideals often seen in Black and White, Bianca represents those who pursue truth—this is highlighted when N comments, "Poor Bianca has faced the sad truth that not everyone can become stronger". She often admits that she is not a strong Trainer compared to the player and Cheren; and thinks about what she can do in life (whereas Cheren is seen to ponder about what he should do). Later in the game, she decides to research and learn more about Pokémon with Juniper.

Like the player and Cheren, Bianca receives a starter Pokémon as a gift from Professor Juniper at the start of the game; she chooses the Pokémon with a type disadvantage to the player's starter Pokémon. The player encounters Bianca on several occasions, where she often challenges the player to a battle.

Quotes

Pokémon Black and White

At Nuvema Town

• At player's house

"Am I a little late again? So-oooo-orry!"

"I know. Sorry, <player>. Sorry, Cheren. So, where are the Pokémon? They were delivered to <player>'s house, so <player> gets first pick."

"Ooh! What kind of Pokémon could they be?"

"OK, I'll take this Pokémon! Cheren, that one's yours!"

"Everyone has chosen a Pokémon! ...So that's that! Hey, I know! Let's have a Pokémon battle!"

"Don't be a worrywart! These little ones are weak, like you said. We have to let them battle so they'll get stronger."

"It's settled, <player>! Get ready for a Pokémon battle!"

• After first move

"Eek! Ouch! I won't let you get away with that!"

• After defeat

"The Pokémon on both sides did their best!"

• After she loses

"Wow! <player>, you're gonna be an awesome Trainer someday, I can tell! No doubt!"

• After she wins

"Wha... I got so absorbed in having my Pokémon use moves, I won before even realizing..."

"Wh-whoa! What happened?! Wow! Pokémon are amaaaaazing!! So little, but so strong! I'm so glad that I get to have a Pokémon! ...Oh. Um, sorry about your room, <player>."

"Hey, Cheren! How about you battle, too? With all you know, I'm sure you can battle without turning the room into a disaster area like I did!"

"Oh! I'd better come, too!"

"Well, um... We can clean up."

"Oh! Wait! I've gotta go home first. Thanks for having us over!"

• In her house

"But, I'm... I'm a good Trainer who got a Pokémon and everything! I can totally go on an adventure!"

"Oh... It's OK. ...It's fine! I'll be waiting for you in front of the lab, OK?"

• Outside lab

"...That's a secret, OK?"

• In the lab

"Pokédex?"

"OK! I mean... Yes, professor!"

"S-since the professor asked us, it's OK to go on an adventure, right? I can explore and maybe find out what I want to do in life. I think I'd like that."

"For some reason, my heart is pounding, <player>. What are you and <player's starter> going to do?"

• Outside Lab again

"Heeey! <player>, wait up!"

"Th-thank you so much!"

"Let's go, let's go! <player>, hurry and come too, OK?"

• Near Route 1

"<player>... It's this way!"

"Hey, <player>! Let's all take our first step on Route 1 together!"

"One, two!"

At Route 1

"Oh! I wonder what will happen! Isn't this so exciting?!"

"I think I'll go, too. I'm looking forward to the next town so I can go shopping for Poké Balls!"

"Wait a minute! Hey, listen! <player>, Cheren, I thought of something fun!"

"Would you just listen a sec? Seriously! Why don't we see who can catch the most Pokémon? The person carrying the most Pokémon, including the one received from Professor Juniper, is the winner!"

"Me and <her starter> will do the best for sure!"

"How about it, <player>? Do you want to compare which one of us has the most Pokémon with them?"

Yes; if player has 1 Pokémon: "What? What? What? You only have <player's starter>?! If you don't catch any Pokémon, won't <player's starter> get lonely?"

Yes; if player has 2 Pokémon: "Seems the number of Pokémon <player> has is... Two! We all have the same number, then!"

Yes; if player has more than 2 Pokémon: "Wow, <number>?! That's awesome! Are you excited to have that many Pokémon with you?"

No: "Hmm... Guess I'll be waiting here, then."

• On XTransceiver

"Oh! Professor!"

"OK! The Pokémon Center, right!"

At Accumula Town

"Ooh, wait for me!"

"All you need to do is give her your Pokémon, <player>."

"Professor... It says "Someone's PC" on the screen. Who is Someone?"

"Ooh! What should I buy? Potions and Poké Balls are definitely important. Ummm...thinking..."

At Route 2

"Ohhhh! Hi, <player>!"

"Hey, listen! Let's have a Pokémon battle! Pleeeease? The Pokémon I caught have become a little stronger! Ready or not, here I come!"

• After first move

"B-both my Pokémon and I are gonna give it our all!"

• Sending out last Pokémon

"OK! This little one is up next!"

• Last Pokémon low on health

"Uh-oh... Am I in trouble?!"

• After defeat:

"Aww... I couldn't win!"

"Woo-hoo! You are a tough cookie, <player>. I'm gonna work hard on training my Pokémon so we won't lose anymore! OK, bye-bye!"

At Dreamyard

"Hi, <player>! Are you looking for the mysterious Pokémon, too?"

"Hey! Did you hear a sound coming from the other side of that wall? Come on! Let's go see!"

"Oh! Wait!"

"Huh? Who are you?! What are you doing?"

"You're kicking a Pokémon to make it give off Dream Mist? That's mean! Why? You're Trainers too, right?"

"Whaaat! Don't hurt <player>!"

"Knock it off!"

"...What was that just now? That person called Ghetsis appeared all over the place, and it wasn't real, right?! ...Could it have been a dream?"

"And that Pokémon..."

"Oh, Fennel. Well, you see, Munna was here... But Team Plasma and Munna... And Musharna came... And it showed us something like a dream? And then, Team Plasma..."

"Phew. How random was that? <player>, why don't you go to Fennel's house? Me? Well, I'm going to go look for the Pokémon we saw just now."

At Route 3

"Hey! Where were those people headed?"

"Oh, seriously! They run so fast!"

"It'll be OK. It'll be OK. Don't cry."

"You have to hear this! Those people stole this girl's Pokémon!"

"Please, <player>. Team Plasma took that Pokémon. Get it back!"

"<player> thank you so much! The two of you got her Pokémon back! I'm lucky to have friends like you two!"

"Ooh! Those are Heal Balls! They completely heal the captured Pokémon on the spot! How sweet of you!"

"I'm going to see this girl on her way, so see you later, <player>. Bye-bye!"

At Nacrene City

"Oh, hi, <player>! What's everybody doing here?"

"Oh! Oh, <player>! Take this with you! Fennel gave me this Dowsing Machine to give you."

"Now, what did she tell me? Um... You can use the Dowsing Machine to find places where items are hidden. So you can find stuff you can't even see!"

"Hey, wait for me!"

• In the museum

"I won't forgive those thieves!"

• After player encounters Ghetsis in Relic Castle

"Whoa. Isn't that the...stone... found in the Desert Resort?"

"But, you know, we're lucky... 'Cause what if Team Plasma, like, noticed that old stone that time..."

"Ooh. Sounds real serious... Um, that's about all I got out of it. <player>, do you know Opelucid City? When you leave from Icirrus City and, like, cross the Tubeline Bridge, it's on the other side. Umm... I'm not that great with directions, so if you need more, check your Town Map, OK?"

At Castelia City

"<player>, is there anything we can do? My Munna... Team Plasma took it..."

"Iris..."

"Oh, Munna, I can't believe it. Here I am, a Trainer, and I can't even protect my own Pokémon... I'm sorry..."

"W-wait! <player>, you come too!"

"Th-thank you! Munny, I'm so glad to see you again!"

"It's just... I'm...I'm so happy that my Munna is safe."

"It's OK. Thank you, Iris! No one was hurt. More than anything, I got my darling Pokémon back again!"

"Oh, it would be sensational to look around Castelia City, but..."

"Iris..."

"Wha... Waaait!"

• On XTransceiver, after winning Insect Badge

"Hey there! Where are you now? Could you do me a favor? Let's have a Pokémon battle! Iris has trained me, and I've become a little stronger. I should be able to protect my own Pokémon now. Let's meet at the gate to Route 4! OK, see you later!"

At Castelia Gate

"Heeey, <player>! You remember the promise you made on the Xtransceiver, right? So, let's get right to our Pokémon battle! But, before that..."

"They said we can have a Pokémon battle in the gate as long as we're careful not to break the electric bulletin board. I'm the new-and-improved version of me! It's gonna go great this time! Let's start up our Pokémon battle again!"

• After first move

"My Pokémon and me! We trained and got tough!"

• Last Pokémon low on health

"Ooohhh... Am I in trouble?"

• After defeat

"I trained with Iris... But I still couldn't win..."

"I'll never be a strong Trainer like you or Cheren or Iris, but... You know, since we left Nuvema Town, I've met a lot of people and I've been thinking about what I want to do in life! When you look at it that way, Pokémon have given me a lot of new experiences."

"Having my Pokémon stolen was just really hard, and I felt really unsure... Still, I gotta say I'm really glad I went! I've learned so much on this journey. And I also learned that being with Pokémon is really, really important! OK, well, I hope to see you again soon! Bye bye, <player>!"

At Nimbasa City

"Hey, <player>! Yoo-hoo!"

"The professor told me Nimbasa City has a lot of things to see and do-- the amusement park, Big Stadium, Small Court, and the Battle Subway! I'm going to go see the Pokémon Musical! See you later!"

"Ooh, <player>! Are you interested in musicals? Then, let's go in together!"

"A. Mazing. Isn't it?"

"Oh, I don't know what to do! Doing the musical would be totally cool, but there's other stuff I wanna do. OK, that's it! I made up my mind! I'm going to see the sights in Nimbasa! See ya, <player>!"

"Daddy?! What are you doing here?"

"No way! I'm going to keep traveling with <player> and my Pokémon!"

"Is that so? Then, how about you do things your way, and I'll do things mine!"

"Please! I know there's gonna be painful stuff like you're worrying about! I know! Really, I get it! But, like, listen... There'll be tons of nice people, too. Know what else? Since I've been traveling with Pokémon, I've already gotten tougher, I can totally tell. So...please?"

"Papa, I'll come home after I find out what I really want to do!"

"She's so cool! Hah! I want to be a totally cool woman like Elesa! Mm. I wonder how I'll get there. Well, before that, I guess I need to discover what I really want to do! See you later, <player>!"

At Route 6

"Oh, hi, <player>!"

"Hey, were you at the Gym just now? Oh, hey! That's Driftveil's Gym Badge! Oh, that's totally cool. That's amazing."

"No, no, no! I can't get distracted being all impressed with your shiny new Badge! I'm also a Trainer! At times like this you battle, right?"

• After first move

"My Pokémon can take that! I'm sure! Well, probably..."

• Last Pokémon low on health:

"Ummm... This is kinda bad, right?"

• After defeat:

"Aww. I lost."

"I haven't had a Pokémon battle with you in a while, <player>. You've become totally strong, huh? I'm not that strong, so I don't know how to say it, but I think you're way tuned in to how your Pokémon feel! Oh, you know what! I want to share this HM with you, <player>!"

"My papa gave it to me after he tried to take me home that time. I'm sure it's so I can come home anytime he wants, though... Oh, hey, I have to share this with Cheren, too... See you, <player>! Buh-bye!"

At Chargestone Cave

"Heeey!"

"<player>, did you know this? The floating stones move when you touch them! Right, Professor?"

"I'm the professor's bodyguard! Well, that's probably not necessary, but you have to protect important things!"

"Know what, <player>? Pokémon are mysterious! I wonder why these amazing little guys stay by our sides."

"I plan on staying here and catching Pokémon! Traveling is about encounters, you know!"

"<player>! Just a little further to Mistralton City!"

"Umm, <player>! I'm gonna go with Professor Juniper now 'cause I'm her bodyguard!"

At Icirrus City

"Hey, hey. Cheer up, Cheren... Isn't it nice to see everyone?! <player>! Know what? This time, I'll go to the Pokémon Fan Club. I'm really searching... for what I want to do and what I can do!"

"Who? Us? I'm Bianca, and this is Cheren..."

"Whoooooa! Whoa. Wh-what should I do? F-for now, I have to go to Dragonspiral Tower... OK! I'm heading north!"

At Dragonspiral Tower

"Hey, <player>!"

"Nice to meet you, professor! Thanks to Professor Juniper, I got to go on a journey and start figuring out possibilities for my life. I'm very, very grateful to her!"

"Professor, what's the Dragonspiral Tower?"

"Don't worry! <player> and Cheren are both really, really strong, and they've beaten Team Plasma before. But...I'm not all that strong, actually. I admit it. I'm not very strong, so I was thinking... It would be nice if, maybe, I could... Stay here and be your bodyguard?"

"<player>...Please don't do anything crazy."

• After N flies off

"Huh? There are two legendary Template:Type2 Pokémon?"

"H-huh?! Isn't it dangerous to bring back a Pokémon that powerful?"

"<player>, this has turned into a big deal. So confusing... I dunno what to do... Are you gonna go to the Relic Castle, <player>? Past Route 4, in the Desert Resort... I hear that's where the Relic Castle is..."

At Route 8

"<player>!"

"As I've been traveling lately, I've been thinking about things. Things like what I can do with my life, and what I want to do, but... I'm thinking how cool it would be to be a model like Elesa. And then, how cool it would be to do research on Pokémon like Professor Juniper. If that's what I want to do, I'm gonna have to know a lot about Pokémon. Sooooo...would you please battle me?"

• After first move

"Oh! So, you chose that move!"

• Last Pokémon low on health

"Every time I watch my Pokémon battle, it ends like this..."

• After defeat:

"The Pokémon on both sides tried sooo hard, didn't they?"

"Yep! <player>, you're amazing! I'm really, really, really impressed, and that makes me want to give this to you!"

"In Castelia City, my precious Pokémon was stolen by Team Plasma. So I really, really understand! If Team Plasma forces everyone to liberate their Pokémon, there will be nothing but sad people! <player>! Stop Team Plasma! Don't allow Pokémon to be stolen from Trainers who love them! I think that's the truth--or ideal--that you've been pursuing, <player>..."

"Oh dear, here I've come all this way, and I'm afraid I'm bothering you when you're going through so much. All I wanted was to help you relax, <player>. Knowing you, you'll be fine! Definitely! You'll totally be fine! I guarantee it! Anyway, you know what I mean... Yeah... So, bye bye!"

At Route 10

"<player>... There's not much I can do to help you, but I want you to have these!"

"Still, it's kind of funny. Everyone's so different."

"Come on, Cheren. Could you smile just for once? Taking everything so seriously all the time isn't going to change anything. You know... Since we've met our Pokémon and walked the same roads together, a lot has happened... We've all changed a lot! We found out that the things we want to do and the things we can do are different for each of us, right? That's what's made our journey so worth it. Somehow, all this just makes me happy."

"He's gone. <player>! Me, too! I'll do my best to help if I can! So... Um... I wish I could say something, like, totally inspiring, you know? Umm... OK... Best foot forward!"

At Nuvema Town (post-game)

"...I'm sorry. By the time I went to get the Striaton City Gym Leaders, everything was over..."

"...Ghetsis? The Shadow Triad?"

"You know what? You know what! I'm gonna go to Black City^{Wrong template. See Template:Sup/doc.}/White Forest^{Wrong template. See Template:Sup/doc.}!"

"Wow, the National Pokédex... It looks like there are tons of Pokémon I don't know yet! Oh! Ooh! I want to show Mom and Dad my Pokédex! I gotta go! Let's meet again somewhere, OK?!"

• In her house

"I was just looking over my Pokédex again and thinking... I sure have met a lot of different Pokémon."

• In the lab*

"Professor Juniper is letting me help out. When I was looking at my Pokédex, I realized something... I met so many Pokémon during my journey. I just want to learn more and more and more about the little darlings! Oh yeah! That's right. <player>, do you know about massive outbreaks of Pokémon?"

Yes: "I knew you'd know, <player>! I'm sure you also know that lots of a certain Pokémon appear in the grass all over, and that if you look at the electric signs in the Route gates, you can see where the mass outbreaks are happening in the Unova region!"

No: "Tee-hee! OK, then, I'll tell you about it. First of all, lots of a certain Pokémon appear in the grass all over. If you look at the electric signs in the Route gates, you can see where the mass outbreaks are happening in the Unova region! Isn't that amazing!"

• Before first rematch with her

"I have to study lots of Pokémon research, but I don't mind. This is the answer I found during my adventure! It's actually a lot of fun! And I have an idea! Every now and then, come have a Pokémon battle with me, OK? 'Cause by doing that, I'll learn a lot more about Pokémon!"

• After first rematch (Monday to Friday)

"<player>, did you know this? If you give a Pokémon called Feebas a Prism Scale and trade it with someone, apparently it evolves. Isn't that amazing? Pokémon sure are mysterious beings, aren't they?"

"<player>, did you know this? In Pinwheel Forest, there is a rock that's covered in moss. It might be related to the rock, I dunno, but there is a Pokémon that evolves when it levels up in Pinwheel Forest! Pokémon sure are mysterious beings, aren't they?"

"<player>, did you know this? Deep in Twist Mountain, there's an ice-covered rock. There is a Pokémon that evolves when it levels up near that rock. Pokémon sure are mysterious beings, aren't they?

"<player>, did you know this? There are Pokémon that evolve when they level up knowing a certain move! Pokémon sure are mysterious beings, aren't they?

"<player>, did you know this? There are Pokémon that evolve when you give them a certain item and they level up at night! Pokémon sure are mysterious beings, aren't they?

• On Saturday/Sunday

"Oh, <player>! Would you have a Pokémon battle with me today?"

Yes "Great! <player>! We're battling indoors, so don't get too worked up!"

No "Whaaaaat! Wait... No, I'm pretty disappointed..."

• After declining to battle her

"Oh, so you will have a Pokémon battle with me, then?"

Yes "Great! <player>! We're battling indoors, so don't get too worked up!"

No "Whaaaaat! Wait... No, I'm pretty disappointed..."

• After first move

"I see... You choose that move?!"

• Sending out last Pokémon

"S-s-still... That's fine. We're just fine!"

• Last Pokémon low on health

"Wh...at a time like this, I am supposed to do...what?"

• Upon defeat

"Thank you for having a battle with me! I definitely learned something!"

• After battle

"Phew! I'm totally sure, <player>. You're really a strong Trainer. I love your style of Pokémon battling, <player>. Somehow your Pokémon look like they're having so much fun!"
