"My name is Ivor. I speak to you today on behalf of the Fist of Justice. Thank you for your time and attention."
"Now, let me ask you—if the people of Lumiose truly wish to coexist with wild Pokémon, why not get rid of wild zones and let Pokémon run free?"
"Some of you might wonder why I would suggest such a “dangerous” thing. Your concern is understandable. After all, wild Pokémon are strong. They can be scary."
"But please! Put your worried minds at ease! Simply join the Fist of Justice and watch your Pokémon battle prowess skyrocket! Once you reach our upper ranks, you’ll even be able to take on Pokémon in hand-to-hand combat!"
"The Fist of Justice is here to help all the good citizens of Lumiose train and grow strong! Once we are joined in strength, then we can finally make wild zones a thing of the past!"
"If I may be so bold as to ask, are you participating in the Z-A Royale?”
”Unbelievable!”
”I feel there must be some secret to the strength you displayed just now…and I can think of but one explanation. You must have mastered having your Pokémon learn moves!”
”You mean you are unfamiliar with the concept…? No, no—I must have misunderstood you.”
”My knowledge on the matter is that Pokémon can remember four moves at a time. Cultivating a set of four moves rich in power and variety is what leads a Pokémon to grow stronger!”
”Oh! But perhaps I should not be speaking too freely about tactics. We may face each other in battle before long, after all.”
”Out of respect for your display of strength, I will take my leave for today. But should we meet again in the Z-A Royale… I’ll hit you with the full force of my justice. Victory WILL be mine! I will reach the highest rank, spread my influence far and wide, and abolish ALL wild zones!”

Justice Dojo

Gwyyyyyynnnn!!!”
”Gwyyyyyynnnn!!!”
”Where are yooouuu?!”
”So she's not here either, then?”
”Oh? You're the Trainer who defeated Josée outside Wild Zone 3, no? Wait, don't tell me! You're here to join the Fist of Justice, aren't you?”
”Ah, I see. Well, I don't have a Rotom Phone, so I’m afraid I cannot verify any of that right now.”
”I’ve tried using Rotom Phones in the past… But for some reason they always break as soon as I so much as press a finger to them. So I rely on my younger sister, Gwynn, to handle everything smartphone related. But I haven't seen Gwynn since yesterday!”
”My apologies, <player>... I’m just so worried about my poor sister, I can't think of anything else. I’m heading out again to search for her. I’d be honored if you would face me in battle…after my sister and I are reunited!”
”Now, if you'll excuse me.”

Looker Bureau

”Well met once again, <player>. As I mentioned before, I’m searching for my sister, Gwynn… But this detective says she cannot help me.”
”Ah, I understand. Ask me anything! I'll answer to the best of my ability!”
”That would be city hall.”
”Understood! I'm on it!”

Jaune Sector 9

”Emma, <player>... I looked all over, but Gwynn's not here either!”
”I climbed this ladder to see if I could spot Gwynn from above, but no such luck…”
”Understood! I'm on it!”

Nouveau Café

”Emma, <player>... There's no sign of Gwynn here, either!”
”The name isn't ringing any bells… Where can I go to meet this Canari?”
Racine Construction, eh? I’m on it!”

Racine Construction

”Where’s Gwynn?”
”It would seem there's no sign of Gwynn here, either…”
”Please! You simply must tell me where she is.”
”I hope you'll take my refusal to back down as proof of how worried I am about Gwynn.”
”Of course! That would be Chandelure, the Luring Pokémon. Its types are Ghost and Fire!”
”Great! So we should look for a Clawitzer, yes? I'm on it!”

Bleu Sector 7

”Emma! <player>! I only see a fountain here. There's no sign of Gwynn anywhere!”
”You mean we should go down? Into the sewers? But there's all this water in the way.”
”I don't think anything could vaporize this much water. Even after extensive training.”
”The skills I've honed in the Fist of Justice can surely help us solve this problem…”
”Aha! I have it! I'll just smash the fountain! That would cause the water to shoot upward, yes? Then the water pooling below will drain away! Yes, a perfect solution! Go, Falinks! Use—”
”Then I shall use my martial arts after all, and—”
”Marvelously done, <player>.”
”Look! All the water’s draining through the sewers!”
”As long as the fountain stays frozen, we won't need to worry about getting flooded. Quick, then! Let's search the sewers! I shall go on ahead!”

The Sewers

”Wild Pokémon, you say? But…will Gwynn be safe down here, then?”
”Understood! I'm on it!”
”Then let us power through with pure strength! Shall I smash through this barrier so we may proceed?”
”Well, that Pokémon had some keys.”
”Then I shall go ahead and catch it! The Poké Balls I throw reach speeds of over 100 miles per hour. This does, unfortunately, mean there is a chance of Klefki being knocked out as it's caught, but that's just a risk we'll have to take.”
”I feel I have witnessed the very essence of a masterful capture.”
”We’re counting on you, Klefki!”
”How about this, then, Madam Detective. If we are truly stuck, perhaps we might try out my plan?”
”If there is no gimmick or mechanism to open this lock, then it must be opened by a key! But there is no guarantee that said key can even be found in these sewers.”
”Since we cannot obtain the key we need, we must let my honed fist BECOME the key! Our path will be opened, thanks to my power!”
”JUSTICE PUUUNCH!”
”With that, our way is clear. Let's press on!”
”It may be the very same Chandelure that Gwynn has as her partner!”
”And no sign of that Chandelure, either.”
”If it is indeed Gwynn's partner, then maybe it vanished to wherever Gwynn is?”
”In that case, the only course of action is to act!”
”Strength is power! Strength is justice!”
”JUSTICE PUUUNCH!”
”Hm? That's odd…”
”I have smashed countless walls in my life… This is the first time I've punched a wall and had my fist go straight through without breaking it. It felt like my hand went inside the wall itself!”
”I see… Clearly I must undergo even more diligent training if I wish to smash illusory walls. But for now, let us proceed! I am sure Gwynn is waiting for us on the other side.”
”So you're saying that a Ghost-type Pokémon is attempting to deceive us?”
”I need to be able to smash walls of any kind… Then I can finally tear down the barriers that separate the people and Pokémon of Lumiose! Yes! The wild zones will separate us no more, and everyone will be the happier for it!”
”I do believe that Chandelure must be Gwynn’s partner.”
”Wait, Chandelure! Please help us find Gwynn!”
”Gwynn!”
”Where’s the villain who trapped you down here?”
”What are you saying, Madam Detective? Gwynn was trapped here—we saw it with our own eyes!”
”Do you know these two, Gwynn?”
”I see… And what did you mean when you said “well deduced”?”
”I had no idea I was causing the Fist of Justice and my own sister so much trouble…”
”It's true, then? <player> is my opponent for my next promotion match?”
”There it is, plain as day! Well, it seems I must prepare for our bout! I hope you will all excuse me…”

Justice Dojo

”At last you've arrived!”
”Gwynn has made her feelings on the matter clear, but even so, I must grow stronger.”
”As I said before, if we are to live in harmony with Pokémon in this city, then Pokémon must be afforded the same freedoms that humans enjoy. And for both sides to enjoy those freedoms, what we will need is incredible strength. Strength cannot solve everything for us. But it will at least allow us to protect what we hold dear. I will prove the truth of my words by rising to the very top of the Z-A Royale. Rank A will be mine.”
”Now, <player>... Shall we begin our match?”
”Gwynn, please lend me your phone. I promise I will do my utmost not to break it.”
”There are places in life you cannot reach without climbing over strong opponents to get there.”
”Strength is power! Strength is justice!”
  • During battle
”Time to Mega Evolve, Falinks! Justice WILL win the day!”
  • Upon defeat
”Defeat… How incredibly unjust!”
”My justice…didn't prevail. It is clear I must train even harder.”
”*sniffle* Understood…”
”It's true that I act before I think, and that I’m terrible at controlling my own strength. I don't even know how many smartphones I’ve broken at this point… Perhaps if you assisted me as my coach, we could work on fixing these things together?”
”Uh—please, one moment, Gwynn. I want to give <player> my thanks.”
”As a token of gratitude for our fine battle, please accept this small gift from me.”
”It was a good match, <player>. I would be honored if would face me again! Next time, my power will surely open my path forward! Now, if you will excuse me…”

Hotel Richissime

”A quick word, please, <player>. I feel you should know that Lebanne here was the reason I started my strict training regimen. She beat me in a fight when we were children, and after that, I…”
”Hm. On second thought, never mind all that. I should focus on our match. Let's have a fair fight, yes?”
  • During battle
”Falinks! Let us break through the bounds of justice with Mega Evolution!”
  • Upon defeat
”Defeat… How incredibly unjust!”
”Your power was too great for my justice to crush. Now that I am stronger, I thought I could defeat Lebanne and thus heal from my past trauma… But it seems I still have more training to do. On the plus side, though, that means I have room to grow! I have high hopes for my future self.”
”I wish you all the best in your upcoming battles, <player>.”
”Is that man a fan of <player>’s, perhaps?”
