Pokémon X and Y

Frost Cavern

• First meeting

"This Abomasnow is a fine specimen! It's absolutely brimming with energy. The more we agitate it, the stronger its Snow Warning Ability becomes, making the snow fall even more furiously. Let's catch it swiftly and get out of here."

"What does it look like? We're catching Pokémon. Why else would we have grabbed all of those Poké Balls? It was all so we could catch powerful Pokémon like this Abomasnow. It's full of potent energy!"

"You're not the brightest one, are you? Whoever has the most Pokémon and the most energy will come out on top! Lazy people who just wait for things to be handed to them don't get to have these resources!"

"Allow me to spell it out for you! It's so Team Flare--and only Team Flare--can survive! After all, why should we care about saving people who aren't on our side? Anyway, I don't mind a healthy curiosity, but I'm afraid I just don't have any more time for you."

"You two--hurry up and send these kids packing!"

• Before battle

"Hmm... You're more powerful than you look. I wonder how much energy there is inside you."

• Being defeated

"Not just strong... TOO strong! Not ordinary, indeed..."

• After being defeated

"Hrmph! I've no patience for losing. Let's get out of here!"

Lysandre Labs

• Before battle

"Oh, oh, oh, oh? You're that kid from the Frost Cavern... On your lonesome this time?"

Yes: "Oooh, that's cold! Colder than that cavern! ♪ Your Pokémon don't even count for anything?

No: "Oh! Well, of course you're not! You have your Pokémon, huh?

Either way: We gather data all about the Trainers in the region through the Holo Caster, so we know all about you guys. And you know how the Mega Ring is used to awaken a Pokémon's power, right? Just like how the ultimate weapon can max out a Pokémon's power. Heheh... Looks like you and me are practically after the same thing, yeah?"

• Being defeated

"Oooh, you are strong! You and your Pokémon are most certainly not ordinary!"

• After being defeated

"Ding-ding-ding! Yup, you did it! To the victor goes the spoils! Here! An elevator key for you!"

"The power of the Legendary Pokémon... The power to grant life to all around it...^X/The power to steal life from all around it...^Y It's a mysterious ability that even scientists like us haven't been able to really decode. What d'you think will happen to the world if we fuel the ultimate weapon with something like that?"

Pokémon Legends Z-A

Pokémon Research Lab

• When entering the Pokémon Research Lab for the first time

"That shortsighted NITWIT!"

"That stupid mayor's poured even MORE money into this ridiculous urban redevelopment plan??! Sure, great -- more Pokémon! Love it! But you can't just throw em in a wild zone and call it a day! No, you've got to have scientists SURVEY and STUDY these things to figure out what's safe! But who can keep up with all the work when they keep adding wild zones every time I turn around?!"

• When approached by the player

"Oh, oh, oh? Looks like we have a visitor."

"You here on your lonesome?"

Yeah, it's just me: “Oooh, that’s cold! Your Pokémon don’t even count for anything?”

No, I'm not alone: “Well, of course you're not! You have your Pokémon, huh?”

"I'm the acting director here. Call me Mable."

"And if you came all this way to see me... then I guess you must be here about the prize?"

"Of course that's why. So let's see what you've managed to accomplish."

"So far, you've caught... Oooh, [number of Pokémon caught] whole species! Look at that!"

"I've been hoping someone like you would turn up."

Someone like me?:"

What do you mean?:"Oh, you want to know, do you? Then I'll explain the whole mess.

See, for whatever reason, we've been seeing this influx of wild Pokémon within Lumiose City lately.

"That's what led to the construction of all these wild zones -- so they can live safely in the city. But I can't keep up with all the work -- I couldn't even tell you what species are on the rise lately."

"But now you've shown up!"

"You had what it takes to complete our challenge! Because you're clearly curious about Pokémon!"

"You're just the type we need to help with our survey work! And you WILL help. Right?"

I guess:"

Uh... Yes?:"So kind of you! Somehow I knew you'd agree."

"Since I'm Mable, we'll call this Mable's Research, hm?"

"And starting now, I'll be sending you all kinds of research requests. Understood? Good."
