Noland/Quotes: Difference between revisions

These are Noland's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon Emerald

Initial battle

• Before battle

"Hey, Hey! Get a move on!"

"Hey, my name's Noland! I'm basically in charge of this place, which is why I'm the Factory Head! I had a look at your Battle Swap data. You seem to have the right idea, but you're still square in your head! Listen up, okay? Knowledge isn't only about reading books or doing desk work. Just doing that sort of thing... It may as well be useless! You have to experience things with your heart and your body, understand? I'll take you on under the same conditions as you. I'll be using rental Pokémon too! Shake out every last bit of your knowledge and bring it on!"

• Being defeated

"Good job! You know what you're doing!"

• If the player is defeated

"Way to work! That was a good lesson, eh?"

• After being defeated

"Smart going! Let's see your Frontier Pass."

"Heh... You're a pretty bright spark... Next time, I'll come after you hard. No holds barred, understand? You keep up your studies!"

Rematch

• Before battle

"Hey, hey! Get a move on!"

"Hey, hey! How's it going? You keeping up with your studies? ...Oh? You've taken on a harder look than the last time I saw you. Now, this should be fun! I'm getting excited, hey! All right! Bring it on!"

• Being defeated

"What happened here?"

• If the player is defeated

"Hey, hey, hey! You're finished already?"

• After being defeated

"What the... You're getting out of my league! Sheesh! Let's see that Frontier Pass!"

"Pfft, man! That's absolutely the last time I lose to you! We have to do this again, hey!"

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Noland

"Yo! If it isn't <player>! Workin' hard, or hardly workin'?"

Workin' hard!: "Good answer, kid!"

Hardly workin'.: "Ha ha ha! I like your honesty, kid!"

"You're going around, seeing the sights on your own, right?"

"It's best to see, hear, and experience things for yourself! Especially if it's somewhere new!"

"You could get the information from a book that you can read in the safety of your room, sure."

"But you wouldn't experience anything that way. It's the experience that becomes real knowledge."

"You can't say you've studied until you do that."

Maybe.: "You look like you don't exactly believe me."

That sounds like a lot of work.: "You got that right! It's always easier said than done."

"All right, here's a special treat. I'll tell you how I met my Pinsir!"

"Clean those ears out and listen up!"

"It happened a while back, when I was searching for Berries in the forest for my research."

"I came across a Berry I had never seen before. That's when this guy showed up in front of me."

"I'm guessing he wanted to eat the Berry!"

"Well, from there, it was a conversation between my fists and his horns."

"But here's the thing. See these horns? They're hard as anything! We weren't getting anywhere!"

"So we entered a war of attrition."

"See, I knew that Pinsir can't move as quickly on cold nights."

"And just as I planned, Pinsir finally forfeited to me!"

"And ever since then, we've been best buddies!"

That was wild!: "Nah, just a day in the life of a guy who can let himself stay curious."

I'm surprised you got out of that OK.: "Well, you can't move forward if you're afraid, ya know?"

"I want to test what I know, and I want to know what I don't already know."

"But in order to do so, I have to be physically strong."

"So what do you think? You feel like you got stronger already, don't ya?"

Uh, I'm not sure about that.: "Come on! You're wasting your life away with that kind of attitude!"

Yeah!: "Good answer! Ha ha!"

"Earnest people get strong! They can absorb a lot more that way!"

"Whether you can use my story to make yourself stronger is all up to you."

"But don't just think about it, because that's not enough. You have to experience it yourself, too."

"If there's something you want to do, try it. It doesn't matter if you're nervous about it or if you're crummy at it."

"Being able to do that is the most important quality you can have!"

Sync Pair Story - Treecko's Evolution

• Before battle

"Well if it isn't Brendan! I heard your tail is on fire right now!"

"You know what I mean. But how about it? You want me to test how strong you've gotten?"

"All right, then! Let's see what you got."

"You'd better not disappoint me!"

• After being defeated

"Yeah! You get it, don't you? I learned a lot from that battle!"

"Of course it bothers me! But I'm more happy than frustrated! This defeat is great experience!"

"I gotta go home and reflect on this before I forget anything!"

Pokémon Center

• Random conversation

"Pinsir is my bro. We've communicated—him with his pincers and me with my fists—so many times we understand each other perfectly!"

"Clashing with body and spirit will allow anybody to understand each other."

"Even if we can't talk to each other, Pokémon are humanity's best friend!"

• If spoken to again

"If you want to be friends, you gotta butt heads a few times!"

"So if you got something on your mind, don't hold nothin' back. Come at me!"

• Random conversation

"I'm the Frontier Brain that tests your knowledge."

"I know it's hard to imagine with me lookin' like this."

"But knowledge ain't just somethin' you get by studyin'."

"In order to experience everything, you need to have a honed mind and body to handle it!"

• If spoken to again

"Everything is connected. Nothing you do is ever a waste!"

"You gotta know what you're good at. That is what's gonna lead you to winning."

• Random conversation

"Looks like there are a lot of areas that we still don't know about on Pasio."

"I gotta study up if I want to keep my title of Frontier Brain!"

"If you find any area information, let me know. I wanna go with you."

"I can't stand not knowing something!"

• If spoken to again

"And there are still plenty of things I don't know out there."

"That's just frustratin', ain't it? That's why I want to know more!"

• Random conversation

"Back at the Battle Frontier where I'm from, you fight each other with Pokémon that you rent."

"So you and your opponent are on an even playing field! If you can't think outside the box, your opponent will read you like a book!"

• If spoken to again

"Even if you're usin' Pokémon that you're not accustomed to, as long as you know about 'em, you can be strong!"

"If you can know your partner Pokémon's moves, characteristics, and how it fights, that alone gives you a connection to it!"

• Random conversation

"These guys on Pasio sure are fun! They battle in ways I've never seen before!"

"There are so many things I would never have been able to experience had I stayed in Hoenn."

"I gotta take this opportunity to study up!"

"You should do the same, <player>!"

"If you ever need help, you can count on me!"

• If spoken to again

"I'll never be cheap with knowledge! Watch and learn as much as you can!"

"I promise you won't regret it!"

• Random conversation

"Whoa, whoa, what's wrong? You're gonna go win a Pokémon battle, ain't ya?"

"If you ever need my advice, you just gotta ask!"

"With our knowledge and experience combined, there's nothin' we can't handle!"

• If spoken to again

"If you ever get stuck, don't just stop!"

"Try everything, and build up your experience! Then use that knowledge to get results!"

"All I can do is help. You need to find your own resolve to get those results!"

• Random conversation

"I see that all your efforts, big and small, are definitely making you stronger."

"Once we're done with Pasio, come by the Battle Frontier!"

"With your skill, you'll make it far. I know it!"

• If spoken to again

"Most don't make it through the Battle Frontier with force alone. "

"But you? You might even be able to win the entire thing!"

"If you're gonna challenge us, though, you'd better be ready to go wild!"

• Special log-in conversation (generic)

"There you are! I was waiting for you, <player>!"

"We can't get this party started without you! I'm counting on you today, too!"

• Special log-in conversation (morning)

"Morning! Time to start the day off with a spark!"

• Special log-in conversation (morning)

"You're looking a little sleepy there. C'mon! I'll wake you up!"

• Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"Hey hey! You look like you're doing good. Keep it up, and keep it going!"

• Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"Hey! C'mon! Let's get out there and do something!"

• Special log-in conversation (evening)

"Just 'cause it's late doesn't mean I'm out of energy. C'mon! Try to keep up!"

• Special log-in conversation (evening)

"You look like you're still ready for more. C'mon! Let's keep at it!"

• Special gift conversation

"Here. This is for you!"

"You probably need this more than me. Use it well!"
