Kiri

Kiri (Japanese: キリ Kiri) is a young girl living in Sootopolis City who gives out two Berries each day the player talks to her: one from among Pomeg, Kelpsy, Qualot, Hondew, Grepa, Tamato, Cornn, Magost, Rabuta, or Nomel Berries, the other from Figy or Iapapa specimens.

Quotes

• If the player hasn't talked to her previously that day:

"Hi, what's your name? ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ... Okay. That's nice! My name is Kiri. My mommy and daddy named me that so I would grow healthy and warmhearted. That's what they wished. You can have one of these."

"Kiri will give you this Berry, too! I really like it lots!"

"I wonder what kind of wish is included in your name."

• If the player has talked to her previously that day:

"Spring, summer, autumn, and winter. If you're born in springtime, do you like the spring, and if you're born in the summer, do you like the summer?"

Yes:

"Then Kiri was born in the autumn, so I love the autumn! Which season do you like?"

No:

"Oh... It doesn't matter... There's so much that I want to know..."

• During the battle between Groudon and Kyogre

"A big Pokémon is fighting with another big Pokémon! Please, someone make them stop!"

• After Rayquaza appears

"A pretty Pokémon came down from the sky..."
