Quotes
Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal
- To Silver
- "You are indeed skilled as a trainer. As promised, here is your HM. But let me say this: You should treat your Pokémon better. The way you battle is far too harsh. Pokémon are not tools of war..."
- Before battle
- "So good of you to come here! Sprout Tower is a place of training. People and Pokémon test their bonds to build a bright future together. I am the final test. Allow me to check the ties between your Pokémon and you!"
- Being defeated
- "Ah, excellent!"
- After being defeated
- "You and your Pokémon should have no problem using this move. Take this Flash HM."
- "Flash illuminates even the darkest of all places. But to use it out of battle, you need the Badge from Violet's Gym."
Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver
- To Silver
- "You showed us what you've got and it's indeed good... Take this Technical Machine. However, you should care more about your Pokémon. The way you treat your Pokémon can be too harsh... Remember, Pokémon are not tools of war..."
- Before battle
- "So good of you to come here! Sprout Tower is a place of training. People and Pokémon test their bonds to build a bright future together. I am the final test. Allow me to check the ties between you and your Pokémon!"
- Being defeated
- "Ah, excellent!"
- After being defeated
- "Hmm...The way you battle is quite elegant. You should be able to stand up to Falkner. And you should be able to make good use of this... It is a Technical Machine called Flash. Take it with you!"
- "When a Pokémon learns Flash, you can illuminate caves no matter how dark they may be. You can try it on Bellsprout for example..."
- "I hope you learn and grow from your journey."
