Professor Sycamore/Quotes

These are Professor Sycamore's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon X and Y

Intro

"Welcome to the world of Pokémon!"
"I am Augustine Sycamore, the Kalos region's very own Pokémon Professor."
"This world of ours is widely inhabited by creatures known as Pokémon!"
"These mysterious creatures can be found in every corner of our world..."
"Some run across the plains, others fly through the skies, and others yet swim in deep oceans..."
"We live together with these Pokémon, lending our strength to one another to live and prosper."
"Let's get started with some quick questions... Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?"
  • Either choice
"And what do you look like?"
  • Any choice
"Oho, I see. Would you tell me your name?"
"So it's <player>, then? Did I get that right?"
Yes: "<player>... Très bien! What a fantastic name!"
No: Returns the player to the 'Your name?' screen.
"<player>! Your adventure begins now! You are about to enter the beautiful Kalos region!"
"Go and meet many Pokémon and people, and fill your life with rich experiences!"
"Now let's go visit the world of Pokémon!"

Lumiose City

"So, we finally meet!"
"Fantastic! You're here! Come this way, won't you?"
"Many thanks for coming all the way from Vaniville Town! I'm Professor Sycamore! It's a pleasure to finally meet you! How is your Pokémon journey going so far? Have you met many different Pokémon? Fantastic! Let me have a quick look at your Pokédex and see!"
Uses the line depending on how many Pokémon have been seen in the Central Kalos Pokédex.
"Well now, you DO have a certain je ne sais quoi! I have a good feeling about you! At first, I was thinking of choosing only one child from a town when I was deciding who to give a Pokémon to. In Vaniville Town, it was going to be the child of a Veteran Trainer I know. About then, I learned that the Rhyhorn racer Grace and her son/daughter were moving here. Here in the Kalos region, you're far away from everything you used to know... That really hit me right here... Then it hit me--I should give you a Pokémon and have you travel around Kalos!"
"Fantastic! Now, let's all have a Pokémon battle! Your opponent shall be me!"
  • Before battle
"Shall we start the battle?"
Yes: "Just so you know, I'm not that tough!"
No: "No problem at all! I'll wait! I'll wait as long as I must!"
  • Being defeated
"Ha ha! You're too much for me! You're really something, aren't you?"
  • After being defeated
"I think I've about figured it out!"
"<Player>! You are an interesting Pokémon Trainer indeed! It'd be fantastic if you took another Pokémon with you! Here! Pick one!"
"You picked Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle, then! I see. That's simply wonderful!"
  • If the player's party is full and the player declines to send a Pokémon to the PC
"Oh! So you don't want it right now? Come back and get your Pokémon once you've organized your PC Boxes."
  • If the player has or makes room in their party
"Would you like to give your Pokémon a nickname?"
Yes: "So, you've decided its nickname will be <nickname>?"
No: "Oh, I see. You're not going to give your Pokémon a nickname, then."
"Since you chose Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle, I'll give you this Mega Stone."
"Come now, you two. Pick your Pokémon."
"Well, I've got a feeling everyone else will show up soon."
"See. Wonderful! Everyone's all here! So now that we're all here, I'd like to say a few words. Be the best Trainer you can be! At the same time, remember to have fun traveling with your Pokémon! Also, I want to ask for your help in solving the Kalos region's biggest Pokémon mystery: the secret and potential of Mega Evolution, a new kind of Evolution that occurs in battle! That's why I gave you that Mega Stone just now. It's an important clue!"
"Trevor, my lad, if that's what "best Trainer" means to you, then I want you to go out there and complete that Pokédex!"
"If you're investigating Mega Evolution, why don't you check out Camphrier Town? That town has a lot of history--you might find a hint there! Now listen. If you visit many different places to complete the Pokédex, you will probably see Pokémon with many ways of living and meet people with many ways of thinking. First, accept the ways of living and thinking that sometimes conflict with your own. And think about what's really imporant--this will truly broaden your horizons."
  • If Bulbasaur/Charmander/Squirtle was previously left with the professor
"Why hello! Nice to see you! Here's the <Pokémon> you chose! Take good care of it, OK?" (If accepted, afterwards he asks about giving it a nickname, the same as above. Whether accepted or not, he concludes with his last four lines above.)

Coumarine City

"Why hello, <player>!"
"Congratulations! I see you finally obtained everything you need for Mega Evolution! A Mega Stone for the Pokémon, a Mega Ring for the Trainer, and a strong bond with your Pokémon."
"It's only a hypothesis, but I think the bond between Pokémon and Trainer is the key to this new Evolution. But what is this bond, exactly? And why are there examples of Mega Evolution only in the Kalos region? There's still so much we don't know..."
"Oh! What an excellent point! Indeed! The more you know, the more there is to research! The excitement never ends, does it?"
"Oh, that's right! I came here to give you this!"
"Use the HM Fly to pop right over to Pokémon Centers of places you've already visited! Well then, <player>..."
"Diantha, I hope to see you both again soon!"

Lumiose City (Lysandre Café)

"Over here!"
"I was just having a conversation with Lysandre about Mega Evolution."
"Actually, Lysandre himself is of royal ancestry... He truly is a chosen one."
"By the way, <player>... Do you know where the Holo Caster is made?"
Yes: "That's right! They're made in Lysandre's lab."
No: "Oh really? Well, they just happen to be made in Lysandre's lab."
"Lysandre is a great man. He supports Trainers and Pokémon research with some of the profit from the Holo Caster."
"What a passionate person. He's just like a blazing flame. Perhaps his pride in his lineage is what makes him burn so intensely."
"That being said, what Lysandre says is only one way to looking at things... It's not necessarily the truth. <player>! What's truly important is the time you spend together with others! Treasure these moments spent traveling the Kalos region with your Pokémon!"

Couriway Town

"Hello..."
"I have to apologize to you about Lysandre... I'm very sorry for the trouble he caused..."
"And I'd also like to thank you! I'm sincerely grateful for what you did for all of the Pokémon and people of this world. And by stopping Team Flare, you also saved Lysandre. I always knew that he desired a beautiful world..."
"And maybe someday the population of people and Pokémon will actually increase to where resources become very scarce. If someone acts out of greed in such a world, surely some will go without. If all living things keep acting that way, there will be nothing left at all in the end. Why, there won't even be anything left to steal, will there?"
"But what I really wanted was for him to put his ego aside and lead everything to greater heights. I never had this discussion with him, though. So I'm partially responsible for this."
  • Before battle
"Well, enough of that. <player>! I want you and your Pokémon to take everything you learned from your journey and hit me with your very best shot!"
  • Being defeated
"You are really something! You and your Pokémon have developed strong bonds by spending time together and by caring about one another. That's why you and your Pokémon are so strong."
  • After being defeated
"The strength you've found is simply marvelous! And... You truly love and trust your Pokémon! <player>! A treasure of mine is hidden in this town! If you'd like, try to find it. Well, I'll be off then! I have many preparations I must attend to! I have a little surprise planned for all of you to thank you for fighting Team Flare and saving Kalos!"

Parade at Lumiose City (after entering Hall of Fame)

"What an amazing turnout! All of these people are here to celebrate your achievements. I'd like to present you with the Honor of Kalos for the bravery you showed battling Team Flare! I'm so proud of you all! On behalf of the entire Kalos region, I'd like to say... Thank you!"
"His Pokémon was waiting all this time... Waiting for him to return to the man he was. The man who loved Pokémon with all his heart."

Lumiose Station (post-game)

"How did you like your parade, <player>? So the reason I asked you to come here is... I wanted to give you a pass to Kiloude City!"
"Doesn't ring any bells? Kiloude City is a city in the southern part of the Kalos region. And it's the perfect place for Trainers looking to sharpen their skills! So here's your pass for the super high-speed rail to Kiloude City!"
"Use it to ride the TMV super high-speed rail! Take your pass to that scanner over there. It's an orange machine. Have the machine scan your pass to board the train. Have a fantastic time!"

Anistar City (after defeating Calem/Serena in Kiloude City post-game)

"Why, hello, <player>!"
"Running around all over Kalos is actually rather tiring, is it not?"
"Oh yeah, I'm the one making you do that, aren't I?"
"Terribly sorry about that!"
"Well, Calem/Serena may have already told you, but I found a way to power up the Mega Ring!"
"Before we get to that, however..."
"Let's talk about Mega Stones briefly."
"My theory is that they're special stones irradiated by the light--the energy of the Legendary Pokemon YveltalY/XerneasX--fired from the ultimate weapon 3,000 years ago."
"And that's what I think they are."
"It's even possible that stones like Fire Stones were what turned into these Mega Stones."
"So, what's the Mega Ring you are holding?"
"That mysterious stone transforms feelings felt towards Pokemon into some kind of wavelength."
"The Mega Ring works in a similar way to how this object over here works."
"It's an object that changes sunlight into a mysterious light."
"For one hour starting at 8 pm, this sundial starts emitting light."
"This mysterious object has towered over the city here for over 3,000 years."
"It's[sic] relationship to the Mega Ring isn't understood at all yet."
"Now, let's get down to the heart of the matter!"
"<player>! Try touching the sundial!"
  • After touching
"You were exposed to the Legendary Pokemon's energy in Team Flare's secret HQ."
"And the Mega Ring has absorbed the power of the sundial."
"These two powers have combined to upgrade your Mega Ring."
"Now, it will react to underground Mega Stones, but only when the sundial is emitting light."
"I'm sure these stones hide in every corner of Kalos! Use this power to find them!"

Pokédex evaluation

  • Before evaluating the player's Pokédex in person:
"Well now, let's have a look at your Pokédex!"
  • After evaluating the player's Pokédex in person:
"Your Pokédex must be jam-packed with all the memories of your journey... I hope you treasure it always!"
  • After evaluating one of the Kalos Pokédexes via a PC after all three have been finished or National Pokédex when it has been finished:

  • After evaluating the National Pokédex in person after it has been finished:
"You're encountering Pokémon at a really good clip, aren't you?"

  • 20-39 Pokémon:
"It's so interesting to look at the differences between the Pokémon that live in each area!"
  • 40-45 Pokémon:
"I'll bet the Pokémon you can find in the mountains and caves are tough and rugged!"

"Congratulations!"
"This is such an emotional moment! I'm so lucky to have met you! This Pokédex could not have been completed without the sweat and hard work you put in as a Pokémon Trainer... It's a one-of-a-kind treasure chest packed full of your dreams!"

If the player has already obtained the evaluation for the completed Pokédex once, subsequent evaluations skip the sentence stating the number of caught Pokémon altogether and simply say:

"Incredible! You've already completed the National Pokédex!"

Legendary Adventures - Give and Take
  • A Shadow Chasing Eternal Life
"Hey there! You're <player>, aren't you?"
"I'm Sycamore, the Pokémon Professor of the Kalos region."
"Actually, I have a favor to ask of you..."
"Have you heard the rumors that the Legendary Pokémon Xerneas showed up on Pasio?"
"A Legendary Pokémon appeared out of the blue... I'm sure there's a reason why it came here."
"I may just be mistaken, though."
"That said, would you be willing to help us look into whether the rumors are true?"
"I'll send the location of where we're meeting up to your Poryphone. I hope to see you there!"
  • Research Request: Xerneas
"There you are! I'm glad you came, <player>!"
"I've heard a lot about you from Serena and Calem."
"You have a splendid spark in your eyes!"
"I think you'll be able to contribute a lot to this research I'm working on!"
"I have a great idea! Why don't we have a battle so I can see what you can do?"
Sure!: "Great answer! Then I choose you, Bulbasaur!"
You want to battle me?: "Yup! Here's my partner Pokémon!"
"Ready? Here we go!"
"Wow, you got me! You're even better than I expected!"
"I'm so moved right now by you and your partner Pokémon! You looked great battling together!"
"I'm a Pokémon Professor, so I'm more interested in Pokémon and sync pairs than battles!"
"With that kind of skill, we should have no trouble unveiling the mysteries of Xerneas!"
"Xerneas is the Life Pokémon. They say when the horns on its head shine in seven colors, it can share eternal life."
"I can't wait to see what kind of Pokémon it is!"
"Let's start searching for clues, shall we?"
"Most of the sightings sesem to be happening near the forest and mountainous areas..."
"Oh?"
"I need to take this call. Why don't you go on ahead and start looking? I'll catch up to you once I'm done."
  • Off-screen
"Hello?"
"Yes, I just had a battle with him/her. He's/She's a great Trainer, just like you said!"
"So, about that thing I asked you about before..."
"Understood. Thanks for your help!"
  • On-screen
"If he's really here, I have to make sure I take care of things the right way this time."
  • A Beautiful World
"I heard that these woods have been bearing more Berries than before–and that the plants have been looking healthier, too."
"And that was information from Ramos, the Grass-type Pokémon expert. He's been keeping an eye on these woods every day."
"Yup. That's why I thought that if there were a spot where plants are looking extra healthy, that might lead us to where Xerneas is."
What a Professor-like answer!: "Thanks! But we're not sure yet if my knowledge still applies when it comes to Legendary Pokémon."
Think we'll encounter Xerneas here?: "Wouldn't it be great if we did? Thought I suppose we should also apologize for bothering it so late at night."
"Did you hear that?"
"Wonderful! I'm so glad we were finally able to encounter it! Easy now–let's slowly approach..."
"Wait... Doesn't it look like it's on guard?"
  • As Friends...
"Lysandre, please listen to us! We–"
"How could you?"
"Lysandre!"
"Isn't it our job to change those things that seem impossible to do?"
"We strived to enrich the lives of people and Pokémon!"
"We work in different fields, but we're both researchers! That's why we became friends!"
"I...understand your struggle, Lysandre."
"But I can't accept your answer!"
"If all you see in the future is despair, then it is my duty as your friend to give you hope!"
"Urgh!"
"I'll be fine! You all take Xerneas and get away from here!"
"I didn't expect him to have Yveltal on his side. Go... Get help from everyone else here on Pasio!"
"No, I need to speak with Lysandre..."
"This time, I need to fulfill my duty...as his friend!"
"Xerneas, what are you doing?"
  • Message to the Future
"I can breathe better now... Was it thanks to you?"
"Thank you! I'm OK now. Please go and help the people of Pasio!"
"Xerneas, are you trying to stop Yveltal?"
"It seems we're on the same page."
"Then...will you lend me your power?"
"That's right, Lysandre. There's no way to predict the future."
"Lysandre, when you were just a child, what did you imagine when you thought of the future–of where we are now?"
"I couldn't predict anything at all. I didn't even really know what I wanted to be in the future, either."
"That's why I wrote myself a message–a message to my future self–asking if I've become what I wanted to be."
"Yes, I guess Serena's found it, too."
"Today, I might be someone different from who I imagined I'd be when I was younger."
"But I can say this with pride! I am having fun and living my life to its fullest!"
"There are many paths in front of me. Now, I'm a Pokémon Professor..."
"But it was challenging myself and giving up on other things that shaped my future!"
"Those changes weren't always bad–they made me who I am today!"
"That's why it's impossible to predict the future! You said so yourself, remember?"
""The future isn't decided.""
"You made the Holo Caster, didn't you?"
"In the past, it was just a figment of our imagination, but you were able to make it in real life! It's an amazing invention!"
"I think that those endless possibilities are what change the future. It's not just the power of one person."
"That's why I do what I do, Lysandre."
"And it's why I look forward to sending these children off on their adventures with Pokémon."
"They always come back with wonderful dreams and discoveries–things that surpass my imagination!"
"We need to stop being so proud and put more effort into helping these children reach their potential."
"We can't decide the future just from how you think it'll turn out!"
  • Flames of Conviction
"Lysandre! You don't have to rush to a conclusion! We can still find a way to save everyone!"
"Looks like they made it just in time."
What was that call about?: "Clemont and the others were able to stop the weapon from activating!"
Was that Clemont's voice I heard?: "Yup! I had him gather some sync pairs that know a lot about machines! They worked together and defused the weapon!"
"I secretly had Clemont and the others working on things so that we could stop your plan, Lysandre."
"Actually, I knew you were here on Pasio, though I had no proof of it."
"<player>, you know..."
"No matter what Lysandre did on Pasio, for any reason..."
"I knew that your shining and boundless potential would allow us to get Xerneas to understand us."
"Not only that–I had a feeling you'd be able to help us change Lysandre's mind and change the future into something new."
"But now...I suppose I should take responsibility, given the situation."
"Lysandre, we were able to change the terrible future you thought was going to happen."
"But it wasn't just the power of one person. We all worked together to make it happen."
"Your convictions would reduce these infinite hopes and possibilities."
"Don't you think so?"
"That's unfortunate."
"Yes, I know. I'll remember that."
"I definitely won't let that happen to any of us."
"Even if he doesn't understand it now, I'm sure he'll change his ways eventually."
"Because his dream is to make the world a better place, just like ours is."
Legendary Adventures - Howling Shield of Eternity
  • A Massive Impact
"I'm currently looking into a new hypothesis I've formed–that sync stones have some kind of connection to Mega Evolution."
"Well, we already have some Pokémon here on Pasio that Mega Evolve when they use their sync moves."
"The energy within sync stones is known to have an effect on Pokémon."
"It's still a work in progress, but I'm looking into the energy that these sync stones emit."
"And now that Eternatus is here on Pasio..."
"I'm making tremendous progress on proving my hypothesis! It's all so very exciting!"
"Either way, the fastest way to solve this problem would be to catch Eternatus!"
"But I think that might change now that Eternatus is here."
"With Eternatus around, I believe there's a chance other Pokémon might start to Dynamax!"
"And if that happens all of a sudden here on Pasio to sync pairs who don't expect it..."

  • Team Flare's Mission
  • Off-screen, as "???"
"Everyone!"
  • After appearing, as Professor Sycamore
"Lysandre's behind this? No, that can't be..."
"Team Flare's boss, Lysandre..."
"He became disillusioned with this world because people fight over limited resources..."
"And he wanted to rid the world of strife by reducing the number of human and Pokémon lives in it."
"But he also promised here on Pasio that he'd watch us to see if we could change the world..."
"No, his beliefs burn strong in his heart."
"It won't be easy to change his mind."
"Indeed. Even if we couldn't completely understand each other, we were getting closer, little by little."
"Did something happen, Lysandre?"
  • Hidden from Sight
"Got it! Please be careful, you two!"
"Of course!"
"You have each found your special ways to interact with Pokémon through your journeys in Kalos!"
"If you all work together, there's no Pokémon you can't–"
"Whoa!"

"And we should probably think about what to do—even if it is about the distant future."
"Hold on, I don't agree with everything he said..."
Story Event - Hearts United
  • Two Regions, Two Legends
"You're right. How very intriguing!"
"It is said that Reshiram and Zekrom were involved in Unova's creation..."
"whereas Xerneas and Yveltal are said to have had a hand in Kalos's destruction."
"Good observation! You're a clever one, aren't you!"
"I think it would be interesting to investigate how the myths of Unova made it over to Kalos in the first place."
Special Event - A Strange Specimen
  • Something Strange on Pasio
"Hey there, <player>. Sorry to call you here all of a sudden."
"The thing is, I've received reports that people have spotted some strange, unidentified specimens all over Pasio."
"Have you seen anything like that lately?"
"Apparently, they look like Pokémon in some ways but absolutely alien in others... In any case, they're strange."
"It'd be great if we could search the areas near where they've been spotted and maybe even get a sample of them."
I think I saw one!: "Oh, you did?"
I haven't seen any, but I wanna help!: "Really? That'd be much appreciated!"
"Then why don't we team up and go on a little hunt to find these strange specimens?"
  • Sycamore's Speculation
"Hm..."
"It seems to be alive... But what is it?"
"Based on its cell-like appearance, it could be part of a larger Pokémon."
"OK. I'd like to take this sample and examine it even more..."
"How about I call you if I figure something out? Then we can–"
"Whoa! What's wrong, Xerneas?"
"That's odd... Are you concerned about something?"
Story Event - Verdant Guardian
  • Sycamore's Suspicion
"Hey there! Thanks for showing up!"
"The reason why I called you here is because I need your help searching for something!"
"Take a look at this strange specimen that was delivered to the Pokémon Center."
"Doesn't it look a bit like a cell? I'm thinking it might be part of a Pokémon."
"Fascinating, right? I think we should do more investigating to figure out what it is!"
"This may have something to do with the rumor that Hoopa has brought Pokémon to Pasio."
  • The Third Legendary
  • After speaking to the Youngster
"Certainly! We can look for the lost Pokémon while we search for the sparkly green things."
  • After tapping on the tree on the far left twice
"If you're smart, you'll learn from this lesson and leave Team Break for good."
  • After speaking to the Youngster again
"It seems Growlithe found what we've been searching for."
"We found another one of these sparkly green things..."
"No doubt about it. This must be—"
"Zygarde?!"
"Doesn't look like it wants to attack us."
"It's not aggressive... And the fact that it's not leaving your side must mean it wants to follow you."
"Why don’t we head back into town for now?"
"Zygarde..."
"First, Xerneas and Yveltal showed up on Pasio, and now Zygarde's here."
"That makes the third Legendary Pokémon from Kalos..."
"Hi! Thanks for coming."
"There are a few new things I've learned about Zygarde that I'd like to share with you."
"Those sparkly green things we were looking for are actually cells. They come together to form Zygarde’s body."
"Depending on the number of cells it has collected within its body, it can transform into different forms."
"So if we're able to collect more of its cells than it has now, that should theoretically give Zygarde an immense amount of power!"
"I'm talking even more power than Xerneas and Yveltal!"
"According to legend, Zygarde monitors the ecosystem, neutralizing those who harm it."
"I suspect that's why it needs so much power—so it can ward off those threats."
"Not exactly. In a pinch, it's able to gather its cells together if it needs to."
"Hm... Like I said earlier, Zygarde is a Pokémon that has great power hidden within itself."
"I'm not sure what would happen if it did collect all of its cells together in one place..."
"All right. I can see how determined you are."
"I'll leave figuring out what Zygarde wants to do to you three."
"As for me, I'll stay here and try to find as much info as I can!"
"I'll ask some Champion-class Trainers for their help, too, just in case something does happen."
"But I believe in you three! Just be sure to stay safe, all right?"
  • Guardian of the Ecosystem
"Looks like you were able to collect quite a number of cells!"
"Oh my. It went and scattered its cells again."'
"I'm not entirely sure, but why don't we follow it?"
"You can go with Zygarde. I'll take care of things here."
"Both the Pokémon and its Trainer are in good hands now."
"Huh. That must be why Zygarde sent its cells all over Pasio again! It was looking for that Trainer and his Pokémon!"
"A human tried to protect his partner Pokémon, and a Pokémon worried more about its partner than its own well-being..."
"As the guardian of the ecosystem, Zygarde must have realized how much they cared for each other."
"True. You've learned from Zygarde what it means to be strong enough to protect others..."
"And I'm sure Zygarde learned from your compassion and willingness to help others, Serena!"
"In collecting all of Zygarde's cells, you earned more than just a glimpse at its complete form..."
"It brought your hearts together."

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Steven (Anniversary 2021)
"Morning, you two! Do you need help with anything? You look a little troubled."
"Ahh... Curious about Rayquaza, are you?"
"Well, theoretically, Mega Evolution should only be possible through the use of two special stones by a Trainer and Pokémon who share a strong bond."
"But it would seem that Rayquaza, a super-ancient Pokémon, requires a different sort of power to accomplish this."
"If it's a battle you're after, I'm more than happy to participate. Give us everything you've got!"
Sync Pair Story - A Day with Sygna Suit Serena
"Apologies for the commotion, you three."
"There's a reason they call Zygarde the guardian of the ecosystem."
"Its origins are in the Kalos region, but I've heard of sightings in Alola as well."
"Maybe all the Legendary Pokémon gathered here on Pasio have put it on alert."

Friendship Story - A Special Day with Sycamore: Part 1
"Hmm..."
"Thank you, <player>! Just as I thought–your Poryphone had just what I wanted:"
"plenty of battle records with Mega-Evolved Pokémon."
"Hm? You want to know what I'm studying right now?"
"I suppose you'd say it's...the influence that Mega Evolution has on Pokémon, perhaps?"
"Based on previous research, it's actually been reported that Mega Evolution has negative effects on Pokémon."
"So I've been wondering why Pokémon change this way at all."
"Is Mega Evolution a type of Evolution that Pokémon really don't want for themselves? Or is there some reason they do want it?"
"What would you think if you had such a power, <player>?"
I'd push myself, out of love.: "So you think they're doing it for their Trainers, with whom they have such deep bonds of friendship? What a passionate perspective!"
I'd do whatever it took to help.: "Yes, that's what I was thinking, too."
"I think Pokémon may push themselves too far sometimes, trying to get even stronger so that they can help their Trainers."
"So I feel my role now is to find a way to lessen the burden that Mega Evolution puts on Pokémon."
"Thanks so much for giving me your honest opinion, <player>!"
"I suppose I may have been overthinking it."
"I'd like to thank you... Do you have some time later, <player>?"
"You're always helping me out with your extensive Pokémon battle data and your creative ideas."
"I do hope you'll allow me to return the favor!"
Friendship Story - A Special Day with Sycamore: Part 2
"I've visited cafés all over Kalos, but this coffee is my favorite yet. What do you think?"
I like it!: "I'm so glad you approve!"
"I really love the deep and bitter taste."
It's not for me." "Haha, no need to force yourself to drink it, then! Instead..."
"Here! Follow that up with a sweet treat!"
"Everyone has different tastes in coffee."
"But sometimes tastes change with age, and not just about coffee."
"In a few years, we may have very different opinions about the things we like the most now."
"So I think it's a good idea to try out a lot of flavors in life for the sake of your own future self."
"I hope you continue to change and evolve as well, <player>."
"Whether it be through your travels, adventures, or café hopping, like me..."
"Go out and experience the sweet, sour, bitter, and all other flavors in life so you can choose what works best for you."
"And then you'll become a truly discerning adult!"
