Oleana/Quotes

These are Oleana's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series games

Pokémon Sword and Shield

Hulbury
  • First encounter
"Our sincerest apologies! The chairman is quite busy at the moment... Everyone, please disperse! Please leave now!"
"Fans are very important, of course. That's why you need to keep doing your work—for their sake."
"Chairman, we should really be going..."
"The chairman will be heading to this town's seafood restaurant. Win the Gym Badge and join him there at once. Do not keep him waiting."
"I believe the chairman was quite clear. Get your Water Badge at once."
  • After the player defeats Nessa
"Do not keep the chairman waiting. Head to the seafood restaurant—the Captain's Table. So you will not forget the chairman's face, I will give you one of his League Cards."
"Chairman Rose is the kind of man who gets downhearted if he doesn't take care of things he needs to right away... Go to the seafood restaurant as soon as possible, so as not to keep the chairman waiting."
  • At the Captain's Table
"Understood, Chairman. I will arrange a meeting with Ms. Sonia."
"However, I believe it is about time we get going, Chairman."
Hammerlocke
"Good work, Bede. I'm glad you haven't forgotten that it was the chairman who endorsed you."
"Challenger Bede, there is something I wish to discuss with you. Do you have a moment?"
Stow-on-Side
"Challenger Bede!"
"I wondered what you were up to when you asked to borrow Chairman Rose's Copperajah... I can't believe you'd try to use the chairman's Pokémon to destroy a historical site!"
"Challenger Bede. I will be taking those Wishing Stars that you have gathered."
Wyndon
"What a beautiful display of sibling love! However, it is entirely unnecessary."
"Chairman Rose is with the Champion in a very, very important meeting..."
"There is no way I will let anyone interfere!"
"After all, only authorized personnel with the proper key can ride the monorail to Rose Tower."
"That means as long as Chairman Rose is in the tower, no one can disturb him!"
"I have hand selected a member of the League staff and given them a key. Chairman Rose does enjoy these kind of menial games after all."
"Do you think you can tell the difference between normal League staff and the one I chose?"
Rose Tower
  • On 1F, via intercom
"Intruder alert. Intruder alert. All staff are ordered to help remove the intruders from the premises at once."
  • At the top floor
"Welcome to Chairman Rose's exclusive space. Here, nearly a thousand feet above the earth!"
"So, you got through all of the special staff that I had ordered to stop you. I would expect nothing less of the Trainers handpicked by Champion Leon himself."
"But I am afraid it is now time for you to go home."
"Because..."
"I will not allow anyone to disturb the great Chairman Rose!"
"You shall be the first, <player>! If I beat you to pieces, then the Champion will have no one to battle and will thus lose heart. In that state, he will listen to anything the chairman says!"
  • In battle
After the player first lands a hit: "My, how cheeky. To do such a thing as to hurt my partner!"
Upon sending out her last Pokémon: "This is my last Pokémon? Seriously?! Oleana's gotta finish this!"
Upon Gigantamaxing Garbodor: "I think I'll treat you to something truly spectacular. A Gigantamax at Rose Tower."
Upon first using Garbodor's G-Max Malodor: "Here is a move I was good with even before I changed my image."
Upon being defeated: "*sigh* I wasn't able to win... Oleana...you really are a hopeless woman."
  • After being defeated
"Arghhh! This is inexcusable... What was I thinking... Any Gym Challenger who's made it this far would be no pushover..."
"Under normal circumstances, I would have tried to delay you further. However, all the necessary Wishing Stars have been collected. Do as you wish. There is nothing to be done now."
"Everything I did, I did to further the chairman's own goals..."
Hammerlocke Stadium
"G-Gym Challenger! You must help me! I-I mean, please, help me!"
"My Pokémon suddenly Dynamaxed for some reason and started running amok in the stadium..."
"Raihan...I mean, Mr. Raihan was able to subdue the Dynamax Pokémon in the stadium, but..."
"If other Pokémon also Dynamax and go on a rampage...the underground power plant would collapse! Mr. Rose is down there right now!"
"I know this is selfish of me, but I must beg your assistance! I want you to head into the underground power plant and stop Mr. Rose!"
"Mr. Rose has awakened a Pokémon known as Eternatus... Apparently, the energy emitted from its body is what causes Dynamaxing."
"At this rate, all the Pokémon in the Galar region will Dynamax and go berserk! If that were to happen—"
"Please, you must save Mr. Rose! You can take the lift over there to reach him. I've enlisted the help of the Champion's younger brother, too, but who knows what is going on..."
"Oh no... Eternatus is— Oh, Mr. Rose..."
Galar Mine
"Oh... Champion. I never thought I'd run into you in the mines."
"I've been doing some voluntary community service on Mr. Rose's behalf."
"Mr. Rose... A long time ago he used to work in a coal mine, you know. That's why I'm actually happy with doing this kind of work. Yes! I'm so happy, I think I'll give you one of my prized League Cards!"
"You don't need to worry... I have a hundred copies of Mr. Rose's League Card. They're all signed, too!"
"Champion... Thank you for stopping Eternatus. I know Mr. Rose feels the same way... But he was just so worried about the future..."
Old Cemetery
"Where...? Where are you?"
"Where, oh where, could you be, my...?"
Ms. Oleana?!: "Oh my. Champion? I didn't expect to find you here."
A ghost?!: "I beg your pardon? There is no ghost here—only a now-mildly-peeved Oleana."
"But what a stroke of luck. You may just have the information I need."
"Word has reached me that Chairman Rose has supposedly been seen in these parts. I know full well that cannot be true, but I could not help but come and investigate."
"Would you happen to know anything about Mr. Rose somehow being here in this tundra?"
I think I might...: "You do?! What do you know? Tell me straightaway!"
Sorry, I don't: "No, I suppose you would not. Things are never as simple as that..."
"M-Mr. Rose?!"
"You... You're not Mr. Rose at all!"
"But there is a slight resemblance. Could you be Mr. Rose's...?"
"Looking closely, I can see you do indeed lack his intelligence and grace... Not that a particularly close look is needed."
"*gasp* Does this mean the 'Mr. Rose' seen here was...?"
"I am now one extremely peeved Oleana!"
"You may be Mr. Rose's brother, but ultimately, you and he are nothing alike!"
"Well, now that I know Mr. Rose is not here, I see no reason to linger."
"Farewell, Champion. And likewise to...that man over there."
"Hello? Have I reached the Flying Taxi service? I need a pickup from the Crown Tundra, please."

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Oleana
Are you cleaning up?: "Oh, hello, <player>."
"I suppose you could say that..."
Are you doing volunteer work?: "Oh, hello, <player>."
"I guess it could look like that."
"But no, I'm not volunteering—nor just cleaning up."
"I'm feeding garbage to Garbodor, my partner Pokémon."
Is it OK for her to eat garbage?!: "Oh? Do you not know Garbodor biology?"
"Garbodor can convert the garbage she eats into poison."
Are you doing that for the poison?: "That's correct. I expected you'd know a lot about Pokémon."
"This makes Garbodor stronger, so actually, we're training."
"Anyhow...it's been a while since I trained with Garbodor like this."
"Since I work as both vice-president and a secretary, I don't often get a chance for serious battles."
That's unfortunate.: "The adult world can be complicated."
What do you mean?: "Maybe one day you'll understand."
"But while I'm here, I can battle without having to worry about "grown-up matters.""
"Pasio is a great place."
"I gained strength from training even before changing my image—and by using that strength, I'll continue to be of service to Mr. Rose."
You changed your image?: "Ah, curious?"
What did you do before?: "You shouldn't be nosy and ask about a grown-up's past."
"My past before I changed my image is top secret. I cannot tell you."
"But..."
"If you want to see a move I was good at even back then, I'd be happy to show you anytime."
Are you talking about Dynamaxing?: "Dear oh dear. You haven't studied enough..."
People from Galar are good at...: "*sigh* You haven't any clue, have you."
"Allow me to explain! What you've been seeing on Pasio are Dynamax sync pairs!"
"However, they're different from the Dynamax phenomenon in Galar."
"Furthermore, what my Garbodor uses is Gigantamax, and—"
