Petrel/Quotes

These are Petrel's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series games

Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal

Team Rocket HQ
  • Before battle
"What? Who are you? This is the office of our leader, Giovanni. Since disbanding Team Rocket three years ago, he has been in training. But we're certain he will be back some day to assume command again. That's why we're standing guard. I won't let anyone disturb this place!"
  • Being defeated
"I… I couldn't do a thing… Giovanni, please forgive me…"
  • After being defeated
"No, I can't let this affect me. I have to inform the others…"
Goldenrod Radio Tower
  • Before battle
"Y-you! You came to rescue me?"
"Is that what you were expecting? Wrong! I'm an imposter! I pretended to be the real thing to prepare for our takeover. Do you want to know where we hid the real Director? Sure, I'll tell you. But only if you can beat me!"
  • Being defeated
"OK, OK. I'll tell you where he is."
  • After being defeated
"We stashed the real Director in the underground warehouse. It's at the far end of the Underground. But I doubt you'll get that far."

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver

Team Rocket HQ

  • Disguised as Giovanni
"Muhahaha, we've been waiting for you. So, you are <player>… Me? You don't know who I am? It is me, Giovanni. The majestic Giovanni himself! Wahahaha! …Huh? I don't sound anything like Giovanni? I don't even look like Giovanni? How come? I've worked so hard to mimic him!"
  • Before battle
"I am a Team Rocket Executive! You must be trying to sneak into the radio-transmitter room. Well, that's not going to happen. That room is protected with a special password. The password is "Hail Giovanni". Surprised to hear it from me? Knowing the password won't help you though. The door won't open unless I say the password. It only reacts to my voice."
  • After sending out last Pokémon
"Hey, you're good!"
  • Last Pokémon low on health
"Wow, strong!"
  • Being defeated
"I… I couldn't do a thing… Giovanni, please forgive me…"
  • After being defeated
"Since disbanding Team Rocket three years ago, our Giovanni has been missing. But we're certain he's been waiting for the right time for our revival... Wahahaha! Losing to you won't change the fact that you are unable to get in the radio-transmitter room! You need my voice to unlock it!"

Goldenrod Radio Tower

  • Disguised as the Director
"Ahem, do you hear me? ...I am the Director. We have decided to broadcast wonderful shows to praise Team Rocket! Everyone, I don't want to hear you complain. Just do a good job to... Yikes! I am busy impersonating the... Who are you? ...Oh no, it's you again, <player>?"
  • Before battle
"No, no, no! I was pretending to be the Director to influence the entire region to support Team Rocket! This time I won't hold back! Give me all you've got!"
  • After sending out last Pokémon
"What? Am I losing?"
  • Last Pokémon low on health
"Hey, wait, are you serious?!"
  • Being defeated
"OK, OK. I'll tell you where he is."
  • After being defeated
"Listen carefully. We stashed the real Director in the underground warehouse. It's at the far end of the Goldenrod Tunnel. I am a nice guy. I will give you the Basement Key to get to the underground warehouse. Take it with gratitude!"
"Hahaha... I doubt a child like you'll get that far."

"What's the secret to a good disguise? For starters, you gotta observe your target and take note of their habits!"

"Now THAT'S real dedication! That Pokémon is my role model—a true inspiration!"

"Hey <player>, are you interested in joining Team Rocket?"
"No, huh? Well, you're no fun. And to think, I was gonna take real good care of you as your boss!"

"When I look at you, I'm reminded of that kid who came to squash Team Rocket..."
"If I pretended to be one of you kids, do you think I'd get a lot stronger?!"
