"Thank you for finding it. Truth is, I want to come pick it up right away, but... Right now I'm very busy with work, and I'm not in a place where I can stop and come get it. If you don't mind, could you hang on to it for a little bit?"

"Really? You don't mind? Thank you so much. My name's Na... Er... sorry... Yancy. And you are?"

"<Player>? OK. When work calms down, I'll come pick it up, so please take care of it for me! Also... I'm sure you'll want to keep in touch until I can pick up my Xtransceiver. So I'll call your Xtransceiver often. Bye, then. Thanks again."

Nimbasa City

"No! I'm not who you think!"

"...What? You're <player>? I'm so sorry! I thought you were someone else. Well, uh...It's nice to meet you. I'm Yancy! You were different than I imagined, so I was a little surprised. Ah ha ha... ..."

"I suppose so! We can just talk normally! Hee hee! <Xtransceiver returned to her>. Thank you, <player>. I'm sorry I couldn't find the time to pick it up earlier. But I really enjoyed talking with you, so maybe I was a little lucky! Ah ha ha..."

"Um... If you don't mind can I still call you sometime? ... Phew. I was really scared you might say no. <Yancy's Reregistered in Xtransceiver>. Can I ask you one more thing? I called you on the Xtransceiver too often, and Ma... I mean one of my coworkers... Got really mad at me... So, <player>, could you call me? ..."

"What? Really? Thanks... <player>, you're really nice. Hee hee..."

Whenever the male player calls her

"Ah, <player>! Yeah I can talk right now. You know..."

"Thanks, <player>. Talk to you later."

Twenty-Second Call

On Television (as Nancy)

"Ok! Hello everyone! Nancy here! Today, we're visiting Aspertia City's Gym Leader, Cheren! So, let's start with the big question. Could you please tell us why you became a Normal-type Gym Leader?"

"Wow! That's so deep! Cheren, I've heard that you travelled all over the Unova region. I hope you're able to share what you learned from your experiences. OK! This was Nancy reporting!"

"Ok! Hello everyone! Nancy here! Today, we're visiting Virbank City's Gym Leader, Roxie! So, let's start with the big question. Roxie, do you have a rival?"

"But, Roxie! I think feeling like you don't want to lose is important! If you try to make a song better than the ones before it, everyone might enjoy it more! Oh! Ahaha! OK! This was Nancy reporting!"

"Ok! Hello everyone! Nancy here! Today, we're visiting Castelia City's Gym Leader, Burgh! So, let's start with the big question. Burgh, when you paint, what are you thinking about?"

"Ok! Hello everyone! Nancy here! Today, we're visiting Mistralton City's Gym Leader, Skyla! So, let's start with the big question. What do you feel like when you soar through the sky?"

"Ok! Hello everyone! Nancy here! Today, we're visiting Opelucid City's Gym Leader, Drayden! So, let's start with the big question. Why do you spar with your Pokémon?"

"Ah ha ha! I don't quite get it, but you're very passionate about it! Okaaay! This was Nancy reporting!

"Ok! Hello everyone! Nancy here! Today, we're visiting Humilau City's Gym Leader, Marlon! Marlon, you're famous for your amazing jumping ability! How can you jump like that?"

"That's amazing! I guess if you don't realize something is impossible and you just try, sometimes you can actually pull it off! OK! This was Nancy reporting!"

"Ha ha... Please go easy on me!"

"I like tennis! My mom's hobby was tennis, so we used to play together often and go see matches at Small Court! I might not look like it, but I'm actually pretty good at sports!"

"Ha ha... Please go easy on me!"

"My days off? I often go on a walk for a change of pace! Simply walking around is good exercise, you know! But... I tend to eat any delicious-looking things I see along the way... Ah ha ha..."

"Here I go, everyone!"

"I love you, everyone!"

"Thank you for having me!"

"What? Really? I-I'll do my best, so no trick questions, OK?"

"Hello! This is Nancy, reporting from Big Stadium. It looks like the athletes are in the middle of practice right now. When they have a break, they are having Pokémon bttles with fans. Everyone looks like they're having fun! It's a good reminder to always show affection to my fans!"

"Thank you very much! These Pokémon are very important to me--they're my partners! We're always practicing our lessons very hard, so it's really nice to be complimented like that!"

"Yes! Today, we're going to put on an exciting show!"

"Well... I've been so busy that time off is hard to come by. But my job is so much fun, so I'm doing fine!"

"Wha-?! Ah ha ha. Does it show? I had so much fun the other day! But... It's probably best not to say anything."

"That's right! This <Pokémon> was traded to me by a very dear friend. It's just so cute!"
