|-
|Paulo
|''It's my win.<br>Who's the weakling now?''
|-
|Masked Man
|''Hmph! Don't get full of yourself!<br>You're just relying on other people's Pokémon, too!''
|-

|-
|Paulo
|''Yeah... I know that.''
|-

|-
|Paulo
|''(But building deeper bonds with your Pokémon doesn't always mean you'll get the strength you need.)''
|-

|-

|''(How am I supposed to know what's right, anyway?)''
|-
|???
|''Paulo!''
|-
|Paulo
|''Oh... Tina.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Tina appears)<center/>
|-
|Tina
|''I haven't seen you use those Pokémon before. Are they new friends of yours?''
|-
|Paulo
|''They're from Lear. He started loaning out Pokémon recently.<br>He says it's an experiment he's doing to explore the potential of sync pairs, but the Pokémon he's loaning out are actually pretty strong.''
|-
|Tina
|''Oh... So where's Rockruff?''
|-
|Paulo
|''I won't be battling with Rockruff anymore.<br>He can't win.''
|-
|Tina
|''Wait... seriously?''
|-
|Paulo
|''You heard me.''
|-
|Tina
|''Paulo, are you still hung up on what happened? That was ages ago!<br>I thought Rockruff was important to you! He's your partner!<br>Don't tell me you're starting to think like all those bad guys!''
|-
|Paulo
|''I can't protect anything if we keep losing! I have to get stronger!<br>You know what happened last time! I don't have the luxury to care about how I do it!<br>Of course I want to battle with Rockruff... But I can't!<br>Also, it's not like I'm the first one to make a new sync pair by teaming up with stronger Pokémon.''
|-
|???
|''Precisely! We must make Pokémon stronger, no matter what it takes.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Colress appears)<center/>
|-
|Paulo
|''Um... Who are you?''
|-
|???
|''Oh, excuse me!''
|-
|Colress
|''My name is Colress, and I am a scientist. The theme of my research is, "Bringing out the potential of Pokémon."<br>If there is a plateau that interacting with Pokémon cannot reach...<br>then that ability must be brought out with only a scientific approach—even one without a conscience.''
|-
|Paulo
|''Uh... OK...''
|-
|???
|''There you are, Colress!''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Looker walks up)<center/>
|-
|Looker
|''I asked you so many times not to stray too far!''
|-
|Tina
|''Looker!''
|-
|Paulo
|''Um... Do you know this person?''
|-
|Looker
|''Sure do! This is Colress.<br>He's a former Team Plasma scientist.''
|-
|Paulo
|''Team Plasma?!''
|-
|Looker
|''Wait! He's not an enemy!<br>He's helping us research sync stones here on Pasio.''
|-
|Colress
|''I am fascinated by this mysterious power that relies on the strength of a connection between hearts.''
|-
|Tina
|''Er... Mr. Colress, could you maybe explain what you meant just now?''
|-
|Colress
|''Why, certainly!''
|-
|Tina
|''You said "even one without a conscience."<br>Why are bad people also able to use sync stones?''
|-
|Colress
|''I believe there is no distinction between good and evil when dealing with connections of the heart.''
|-
|Tina
|''What do you mean, no distinction?''
|-
|Colress
|''Pokémon thoughts don't have the same complexity as human thoughts.<br>However, Pokémon will trust their Trainers and do their very best for them.<br>Thus, if a Pokémon obeys the orders of a Trainer who has evil ambitions, that Pokémon will commit evil deeds!<br>Even if that Pokémon is being used as a tool, its power can still be drawn out!<br>That's what I mean when I say there's no distinction between good and evil when it comes to connections of the heart.<br>Furthermore! Humans, just like Pokémon, also have many different types of connections with each other!''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Flashback to Rosa, Hugh, and Nate)<center/>
|-
|Colress
|''Friends...rivals...mentors...students...''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Flashback to Gladion, Lusamine, and Lillie)<center/>
|-
|Colress
|''A boss and their subordinates... Even family.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Flashback to N and Ghetsis)<center/>
|-
|Colress
|''Some of those relationships can become twisted.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Flashback to Ariana, Giovanni, and Archer)<center/>
|-
|Colress
|''Those whom we call "evil" have connections of their own, fueled by purpose and their own brand of justice.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(End flashback)<center/>
|-
|Paulo
|''So there's no such thing as good or evil when it comes to strength.''
|-
|Tina
|''How could you say that?!''
|-
|Colress
|''Both of your perspectives are valid!<br>There are far more questions in this world that don't have any answers!''
|-
|Paulo
|''... ... ...''
|-
|Colress
|''I battled a certain Trainer...<br>And when I did, they showed me the splendid power that can be brought out by humans and Pokémon understanding each other!<br>However, that doesn't mean any of the questions from my research have been answered.<br>For in order to understand the good and evil of bonds and to further deepen my understanding of sync stones...<br>I require aid! Please consider lending me a hand.''
|-
|Looker
|''How about it? Would you be willing to help Colress with his research while also acting as his bodyguard?''
|-
|Tina
|''His bodyguard?''
|-
|Looker
|''Yup. Team Rocket has been targeting folks like Pokémon Professors who have specialized knowledge in certain fields.<br>There's only one of me, so I can't spend all my time guarding just one person!''
|-
|Paulo
|''I guess I could help with that.''
|-
|Colress
|''Thank you!<br>No time to waste. Show me your Pokémon in battle!''
|-
|Tina
|''Wha—?! O–OK, let's go over there, where there's more space...''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Tina and Colress leave)<center/>
|-
|Looker
|''Hey, Paulo.<br>I may not understand complicated stuff like Colress, but hear me out on this one thing.<br>Be sure to treasure your friends...including your Pokémon.''

|-

|-

|''Ack!<br>Bleh... Sand!<br>Hey! Cut it out!''
|-
|Lear
|''I told you to be careful. Hoopa may look harmless, but its powers are special!''
|-
|Tina
|''Oh, really? That's kinda hard to believe.''
|-
|Colress
|''Hoopa has a true form, which allows it to unleash an extraordinary amount of power.<br>However, it appears more content to stay with Lear in its current form.''
|-
|Paulo
|''So...it's holding back the rest of its power on purpose?''
|-
|Colress
|''No, not quite.<br>Hoopa seems to prefer to stay as it is now, so from a sync pair perspective, this is probably its optimal state!<br>If, for example, Hoopa was forced to assume its true form and battle unwillingly...<br>I don't think we could consider that optimal for drawing out its full potential!<br>Fascinating, isn't it?''
|-
|Paulo
|''(Its true form...)<br>(If I have to decide between being strong or doing things the right way...)<br>(It doesn't matter which is the real me. All I have to do is make the best decision I can.)''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Flashback to Maxie and Archie)<center/>
|-

|''(Even if it means <player> and Tina—and even everyone else on Pasio—turn against me...)<br>(I have to stay true to my beliefs.)''

|-
|Colress
|''Oh, I forgot to report my research findings!''
|-
|Lear
|''Of course. Let me hear it.''
|-
|Cheren
|''Hey, Paulo. Got a moment?''
|-
|Paulo
|''What is it?''
|-
|Cheren
|''What's your plan once you get stronger?<br>It seems you're in a bit of a rush.''
|-
|Paulo
|''I don't want to lose the things that are important to me. When you lose, you lose everything.''
|-
|Cheren
|''That's not true, Paulo.<br>Of course, losing is painful, and it does involve some sacrifices. And there are some battles that you can't afford to lose.<br>But—''
|-
|Paulo
|''You can all speak in lofty ideals like that because you're strong.''
|-
|Tina
|''Paulo!''
|-
|Paulo
|''I couldn't get as strong as you, so I couldn't make a difference...<br>I couldn't protect anyone...<br>That's why I can't afford to care about how I get there anymore.''
|-
|Cheren
|''That's a misconception, Paulo. In order to get stronger, you have to—''
|-
|Ace Trainer
|''Master Lear!''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Ace Trainer runs in)<center/>
|-
|Ace Trainer
|''We've gotten reports that Team Rocket is causing trouble in the city!''
|-
|Lear
|''What?!<br>Sawyer and Rachel are on their way to take care of Team Break! We're short on staff at the moment!''
|-
|Paulo
|''I'll go.<br>That's what this power is for.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Paulo brings Alakazam out)<center/>
|-
|Cheren
|''Paulo, stop!''
|-

|''Dummy...''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Tina leaves)<center/>
|-
|Colress
|''Oh, my. It's hard to tell who's the bodyguard now, isn't it.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Colress leaves)<center/>
|-
|Blue
|''There's things you can gain from losing, y'know... And it's possible to get back some of the things you've lost.<br>But if you throw something away... It won't always come back, Paulo.''
|-
|Lear
|''He's on my radar, too.<br>His eyes had the same look mine did, back when I trusted nobody but myself.<br>Could you look after him, Cheren?<br>Putting aside any personal feelings, as the ruler of Pasio, I'd find it a shame to see a Trainer like that self-destruct.''
|-
|Cheren
|''Sure. I'd be happy to, Lear.<br>It's kind of my fault, too. I was so caught up with rounding up villains that I didn't notice his cry for help.''
|-
|Blue
|''Let me help, too. I've got a lot to say to that kid.''
|-
|Cheren
|''OK. Let's hurry and head after him—''
|-

|-
|Ace Trainer
|''What?! Team Rocket is going after Professor Bellis again?''
|-
|Blue
|''I can handle that. Cheren, can you check on Paulo?''
|-
|Cheren
|''Wait. It might be faster if we take care of it together. We don't know what we're dealing with yet.<br>Also... I think hearing what you have to say will be better for Paulo, anyway.''

|-

|''Oh, right. Well...<br>It happened back when Paulo and I weren't even Trainers yet. There was this wild Dratini we were secretly taking care of, and...''

|-
|Collector
|''Hahaha! Gotcha!''
|-
|Young Paulo
|''Hey, hold on!<br>Please... Take good care of that Dratini.''
|-
|Collector
|''Pffft. Don't be silly.<br>Dratini are tricky to raise. Like I'd waste my time carefully pampering it.''
|-
|Young Paulo
|''Then why did you even—''
|-
|Collector
|''Let me teach you something, kid. The skins Dratini shed can be sold for good money.<br>With one in hand, I could be rich!''
|-
|Young Paulo
|''You only caught it for the money?!''
|-
|Collector
|''Hmph. If you've got a problem with that, you'll have to stop me yourself—with force!<br>Not like you can do that anyway. You scrawny runts aren't even Trainers yet!''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(The Collector leaves)<center/>
|-

|-
|Young Tina
|''B-but...''
|-
|Young Paulo
|''Let's get stronger.''
|-
|Young Tina
|''Huh?''
|-
|Young Paulo
|''He's right. Let's get stronger, Tina.<br>So that we never, ever...<br>have to lose anything important to us again.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(End flashback)<center/>
|-
|Tina
|''Since then, we got older.<br>Paulo and I got our Pokémon and left the town where we grew up.<br>But I think that incident still hurts him to this day.''
|-
|Colress
|''I see. But that raises a question.<br>Why didn't you, like Paulo, develop a fixation on becoming stronger to protect others?''
|-
|Tina
|''I do think that the strength to protect things is important.<br. And I don't want to say good-bye like that ever again.<br>But...<br>I know that the time I can spend with my Pokémon is limited, so I want us to spend it together, making all sorts of memories.<br>Once, on my travels, I saw a Pokémon graveyard.<br>Some Trainers who came to visit graves told me their stories. That's when I started to think this way.<br>There's no point in getting strong if it means you forget about the connection you have with your Pokémon.<br>That's why I don't like how Paulo's been thinking lately.<br>He can't be as strong as he wants, and that's really weighing on his mind...<br><player>! Colress!<br>I don't think Paulo's gonna listen to me anymore.<br>He didn't even try to listen to what Blue and Cheren were telling him, either.<br>So...I need your help—to save him!''
|-
|Colress
|'''Leave it to me!''': ''I'm curious to see how my scientific methods can help you achieve your goals!''<br>'''That's a big responsibility!''': ''Indeed it is! I'm curious to see how my scientific methods can help you achieve your goals!''
|-
|Tina
|''Thank you, both!''
|-
|Colress
|''This is just my opinion as a researcher, but...<br>Pursuing victory and cherishing memories together are both important.<br>That's why you musn't get too caught up in one or the other!<br>Maintaining a neutral view of matters is what draws out potential!''

|''*pant pant*''

|-
|Ghetsis
|''Arrrgh! All of these insolent, little...<br>There is nothing more unpleasant than a simple tool that tries to work against you!<br>How dare you defy me, you powerless nothing!''
|-
|Paulo
|''Rockruff?''
|-
|Ghetsis
|''What?''
|-
|Paulo
|''Rockruff? Where did you...''
|-
|Ghetsis
|''Oh, how odd... That Pokémon disappeared.<br>Could it be that perhaps...<br>Kyurem's attack blew it away, leaving no trace?<br>Myah-ha-ha-ha! I love the look on your face when you've lost all hope!<br>So powerless—yet you dare defy me? That's why you met this fate!<br>My plans to use Hoopa's power to utterly rule this world remain unshaken!<br>Before such immense power, all Trainers will be forced to bend to my will!<br>Hoopa's power can become a weapon that will give me control over anything and everything!<br>So, naturally, only I should be able to use it!''
|-
|Paulo
|''You...''

|-

|''Mwahaha! So this is your true form, Hoopa!<br>It seems that Trainer's anger is controlling you... with the power of that sync stone!<br>Very well! Lose all sense of reason and become a monster! That makes you much easier for me to control!''
|-
|Paulo
|''Shut up.''
|-

|-
|The Shadow Triad
|''What?!<br>Sir! That Pokémon is far too strong for us to—''
|-
|Ghetsis
|''Nonsense!<br>With the power to summon ANY Pokémon from different dimensions and worlds...<br>This time, I, Ghetsis, shall rule the world!<br>No matter what they try, no one will be able to stop me!<br>Why are you just standing there?!<br>Grab the girl, she's our leverage!''
|-

|''Eeep!''
|-
|Ghetsis
|''Could it be—yet again?!<br>My plans won't be foiled by a child with such feeble power!<br>There's just no way!<br>It simply can't be!''
|-
|Paulo

|-

|-
|Tina
|''P-Paulo...<br>Thanks for saving me. Let's go look for Rockruff... OK?''
|-
|Paulo
|''Where?''
|-
|Tina
|''Huh?''
|-
|Paulo
|''Rockruff is gone.''
|-
|Tina
|''Wait... Don't tell me you seriously believe what that guy said?!<br>A Pokémon can't just disappear! There's no way that would happen!<br>I'm sure—''
|-
|Paulo
|''Even if he's still alive...<br>I can't go back to being Rockruff's Trainer.<br>Trusting and loving your Pokémon won't make you any stronger.<br>I wasn't fully prepared for that, and that's why Rockruff...<br>I'll use Hoopa's power.''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(Flashback to Lysandre)<center/>
|-
|Paulo
|''I'll use it to drive the selfish people who only steal from everyone else out of this world—to enforce what I believe in!''
|-
|colspan =2|<center>(end flashback)<center/>
|-
|Tina
|''But Hoopa's power isn't yours! You gotta give Hoopa back to Lear!<br>You know more than anyone else how much it hurts to be torn away from a Pokémon you care about!''
|-
|Paulo
|''I'm done having the things I care about taken away from me.<br>I'll become the "last evil."''
|-
|Tina
|''How could you say that?! That's ridiculous!''
|-
|Paulo
|''If you think I'm wrong, then try to stop me, Tina.<br>But...<br>At this point, I don't think you can. You don't have that kind of power.<br>Lofty ideals can't stop or protect anything.<br>That's just reality.''

|Tina
