I'm this town's gym leader and I'm also a model
 
...or something like that.

The games feature interesting dialogue from many different characters. Ranging from N's "let me hear the voices of your Pokemon" to Elesa's very inspiring line about being a model.

Has any of it proven to be amusing to you or stood out in general? Inspiring even? Share your favourite pieces of dialogue within the games. :) And do you think certain parts of dialogue weren't needed? If so, discuss!

Shadow March 22nd, 2011 7:40 PM

I had to read every one of Clay's lines aloud in the voice of the Rich Texan. Does that count?

luke March 22nd, 2011 8:00 PM

The model line is gold. PURE GOLD. Seriously, favorite line in the games ever.

Though in all seriousness, some of the translations is pretty poor. A lot of phrasing and word choices are very awkward sounding.

Hahaha... I used to read Professor Birch's lines (sometimes out loud) in Professor Farnsworth's voice! xD

Anyway, back on B/W topic... Cheren has some weird lines sometimes. "My goal is to defeat all of the Gym Leaders and then the Champion... then maybe people will admit that I am a strong trainer."

He's only in it for the fame. :/

PokéSwimmer March 22nd, 2011 8:29 PM

Over by the Marvelous Bridge there is a sign that (if I remember correctly) reads:
"Truly marvelous, and also a bridge."
This isn't really a character, but it was one of the few lines in the entire series that made me laugh.

Esper March 22nd, 2011 11:10 PM

There's a socialite trainer I faced on the battle subway who said, in the Japanese version: "年上のレディはいかが、とってもジューシー熟れ熟れよ". Which means: "How would you like an older lady? I'm very juicy and ripe." Or something along those lines. I haven't played the English version so I don't know if they decided to keep this line in, but I doubt it.

インフェルノの津波 March 22nd, 2011 11:12 PM

I remember someone when I first met N, and he said "More! Let me hear more of your Pokemon words(or something along those lines)!" And I was pretty creeped out.

Actually, most of what N says is really strange.

tjb90 March 23rd, 2011 1:39 AM

There are some cool and strange things said in the game. I like how Clay talks, he is very funny. When N says stuff it is usually pretty weird, I am like, okay......

lamby101 March 23rd, 2011 4:02 AM

I found Clay pretty amusing, it's the first time I've noticed in a Pokemon game where someone has been given a specific accent which has been tried to be portrayed through the dialogue.

I also liked how they made N look as though he spoke quicker than other characters, it gave the NPC a bit more character.

EJ March 23rd, 2011 7:01 AM

Definitely the male toddler that screamed "RAH HYPER BEAM!" You just can't beat that even though the Model one was damn good.

Captain Fabio March 23rd, 2011 8:38 AM

Got to be the model line.
Pure Gold!


CrowSama March 23rd, 2011 9:11 AM

When you are on the ferris wheel, and you picked the male character, you would go on the ride with a hiker. "It's getting kinda hot in here isn't it? I'm all sweaty." Kinda creepy. Also on that note, the female character rides up the ferris wheel with a maid. "Yes... Oh? Oh... wow!" Things along those lines. I like the ferris wheel :3

HAHAHAHA, I've had the Maid one happen to me. I was totally caught off-guard. XD

Bluerang1 March 23rd, 2011 9:22 AM

OMG She actually says she's a model! I love her even more now =3

Platinum's text is pretty funny, but it seems like Black and White will be just as funny if not funnier. I've learned to read all text slowly so when I see coz gems, I'll post it. And lol Scarf xD

Wait, Nimbassa's a city not a town. Is that the funny? Dumb model? xD

TheMarkCrafter March 23rd, 2011 9:24 AM

i feel'd strange when Cheren said to Bianca that she is late for ten years. :D

Yeah I also thought it was amusing. I was getting high hopes on her character before the game but then she came and said that...

Another thing I found amusing was how quickly Bianca's dad changed his mind after Elesa talked to him lol.

Same. There's quite a lot of lines that can be interpreted in a ecchi way in this game xD.

Daydream March 23rd, 2011 10:42 AM

Anything N says is worded... Oddly. I spent most of the story parts with him literally shouting to my DS "WHAT ARE YOU ACTUALLY EVEN SAYING?"

And then there's that maid on the battle subway. Something along the lines of how people like her for her outfit. I took this in a pervymenlikedirtymaids kinda way. o_o

LOL. XD
I loved the model line, but one thing that cracked me up was on the way to the top of the Dragonspiral Tower, you would hear Reshirams voice (only in white) followed by this:
"Burn, baby, burn!"
o_O I thought that I might've gotten a fake game or something. XD

I face palmed at that line. I mean, seriously? Does she need to announce to random people that her side job's a model?

Actually, I don't like the dialogues in this game much. It's much too short, unless it's N, which is much too long. :(

I laughed at that too, In my mind I was "no duh it's also a bridge why would it be called that xD"

Dawn March 23rd, 2011 11:13 AM

Near the end of the game, the things the Shadow Triad say about N's room. I found that very interesting, especially when you go in the room and look around. That coupled with the way he spoke to you after beating Ghetsis were probably the speech parts I liked best. Oh! And I just wanted to give Bianca a hug and make her feel better at least half a dozen times throughout the story. >w<; (Why... do I feel like the only person who didn't hate her sometimes?)

A couple of things I found on the contrary, were when plasma grunts screamed plasma. That broke immersion for me and I was like ew. When you hear Burn baby burn near the top of Dragonspiral tower, it just left me feeling weird. Without any imagery to accompany it, that line just didn't fit, I found. I don't think Cheren got enough character development... but none of these things came remotely close to ruining the game for me.

DPooch March 23rd, 2011 12:13 PM

I hated just about everything Cheren said. Seemed like kind of a jerk to me.
Bianca never really made all that much sense, but I liked her.

Some of the stuff N said was cool, but anything else was a bit confusing.

Oh. But I did find it funny that Bianca was everyone's bodyguard.

dieter57 March 23rd, 2011 12:24 PM

"Burn baby, burn!"
first was like 0.o
then was like :/
then last XD

ISA56 2.0 March 23rd, 2011 12:29 PM

Pretty much ANYTHING anyone says to you on the Ferris Wheel is hilarious if you have a perverted enough mind.

Oh, yeah, and the Marvelous Bridge. "It's marvelous.....and also a brige! XD

d3lv March 23rd, 2011 2:19 PM

Also not a character, but I love how the bookshelves give the notice that "All the books are neat and orderly" and something like that. It makes me think of subliminal messaging to get kids to clean their rooms. xD

Nakuzami March 23rd, 2011 2:27 PM

I love the dialogue in these game. It's much better than previous games, without going into detail.

Also, "Burn baby, burn!"? I completely missed that when I played. NOW I MUST FREAKING RESTART WHITE JUST SO I CAN HEAR THAT XD

Oryx March 23rd, 2011 2:34 PM

I can't find the dialogue for the French trainers anywhere online :/ I wanted to show the text to my boyfriend and translate it, but I can't find it at all. Is there a site where I could find that kind of thing? I know both their names and where they're found, just not what they say.

Kokuo March 23rd, 2011 2:38 PM

There's a youngster in the football stadium who says something like: "I'm not wearing shorts! They're half-pants!"
I thought it was funny.

iRoyBoy March 23rd, 2011 2:53 PM

I have no idea the exact wording of it, but the fact that Team Plasma wants to liberate the pokemon, and make all of them free, and yet Ghiest[sorry for the incorect spelling] states that only Team Plasma will be allowed to use pkemon. If anything pokemon should be liberated from them.
I also know it's not a line in the game but the fact that it actuly shows plasma members kicking Muna. Sure Team Rocket did bad things, like alledegly killing a marowak, but they never shown pokemon abuse like they did in this game. In a way it's brutal, and I got a kick out of it.

Skapocalypse March 23rd, 2011 3:00 PM

Battle subway multi team/ A biker says: Im a biker that doesn't ride a bike, while he is sitting on one. And then he drives a motorcycle onto the seat of a train.

He is a heartbreaker... His name is Charles...

Another good Battle Subway one was the preschooler that says "A hero never dies" when he loses. It threw me off...that's deep, kid.

Woobat March 23rd, 2011 3:14 PM

There was another guy (I think he was a biker) on the Battle Subway who says something like, "I'm stupid and bad, but I'm very enthusiastic about Pokemon." Good for him.

Sasuke. March 23rd, 2011 3:18 PM

Just check my sig. It was amazingly deep for a pokemon game.

Man, when Plasma was kicking Munna, I near freaked out. I was sitting at a coffee bar with my boyfriend and he was all, "Calm down, it's a game."

But yeah, all of Team Plasma's nonsense is really hilarious, they sound like a ignorant, self-righteous [insert any demographic or institution, really] group.

TaurusFire March 23rd, 2011 9:11 PM

I'm not gonna do spoilers but i really really enjoyed talking with cheren after the main story, back near where you first meet alder and the preschoolers.

Pwnyta Jockey March 23rd, 2011 10:09 PM

I've only liked the "Plasbad" comment and the Undella Bay swimmer girl that said I must only be here to see Cynthia in a bathing suit. She later said Cynthia only swims when noone is around.

Personally, I just like some of the Pokedex entries.

Rawrinism March 23rd, 2011 11:01 PM

There was some preschooler in route 3, "Go, Hyper Beam!" Well something along those lines. I kinda liked that kid. :')

Yes, I do, Idk if anybody has said this, or maybe you quite enjoy it. But from what i think is a line that i could live without it would have to be this line..

"Professor Juniper word's echoed.. TRAINER! There's a time and place for everything! But not now."

Idk.. Lol i know that im pressing the wrong item! why does it have to just insult me?! lol only joking.. but im sure you get my point.

AND ALSO A MODEL BECAUSE THAT IS TOTALLY RELEVANT TO THE CURRENT SITUATION KTHX

Really, Elesa cracked me up with that. It was kind of disappointing, actually, because she was #1 on the list of characters I wanted to meet.

I remember a very philosophical preschooler near the daycare on Route 3, though I can't actually recall what he said. :( It was pretty deep for a toddler, at least.

Also when the gym caretaker asks for a cut of your winnings in exchange for all the Fresh Water he gave you. I didn't think he was serious for a moment, but it was still funny.

Oh, and Marvellous Bridge, of course. Dear Lord.

You're Gonna Go Far Kid! March 24th, 2011 1:52 AM

Two bits really inspired me....
The city were Elesa reigns (Nimbasa? I think...) Where Biana gets scolded by her dad. She was saying something about how he worries about all the bad people she may encounter, but she mentions all the great people too. I really related since my parents are so overprotective.

Another was something a Plasma grunt said. It was like, "I don't accept any views different from my own!" I liked it cause it's teaching kids that only bad guys think like that, and you should be accepting :))

pieguy259 March 24th, 2011 8:22 AM

"She's only a model."
"Shhh!"

And thus ends this thread's obligatory Holy Grail reference.

Drekin March 24th, 2011 2:00 PM

A trainer somewhere in Twist Mountain said "I'm the second best trainer in this mountain" (or something close to that) before you battle him.

I think he is the reincarnate of a super duper good trainer. (Or Red from Silver/Gold)

I would've loved a Fallout reference though....

"Pokemon, Pokemon never changes....."

Aquacorde March 24th, 2011 2:17 PM

"Truly marvelous, and also a bridge." and "Plasbad!" have been mentioned, but...

I was battling through Celetial Tower, and came across a lady who said "Battle with me, I have a strong Pokemon!" So I defeated her, of course, and then she said...

"Oh that's right, that Pokemon is no longer with me."

It just about broke my heart. ;-;

d3lv March 24th, 2011 3:14 PM

Oh, so there's some kid in a house and another one on Route 2 (i think?) who says something about something then goes "I know that!"
I'm reading Jonathan Safran Foer's Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close and that's what the kid who's narrating the book says. My geek spheres are touching each other, weird O_o (book geek and game geek)

Pochama95 March 24th, 2011 3:22 PM

Skyla's entire speech at Tower of Heaven, it just had me loling the whole time telling her to shut up. I swear she's into the boy trainer u start with in that case me.

Hoohking March 24th, 2011 3:24 PM

Though I've noticed a few instances of awkward grammar, some random trainers I've come across say some pretty profound stuff. Anybody else notice these guys and their oddly deep philosophizing?

Hey, you don't want her, I'll take her.

I agree that the dialogue seems a bit clunky at times- I heard that this is a new translation team, so that might explain it. It's often difficult to write dialogue that sounds natural without constantly thinking it. Despite that, I think this game has an excellent script, and all the characters have distinct voices when I read their lines. Bianca sounds like a teenage girl, Clay's accent is great, and N does genuinely make me believe he's an intelligent, well-meaning guy that just isn't good with people (makes sense given how little human contact he had growing up). I've also noticed lots of NPCs talking about how much they love their Pokemon, and discussing ways that humans and Pokemon benefit each other. It's a good way of showing how Team Plasma's got the wrong idea.

I'm greatly looking foward to the E4 and final battles, since I'm only now at Opelucid in Black. I can't wait to see the endgame conflicts and actually be able to read some text along with it...

Ho-Oh March 29th, 2011 12:25 AM

I love all these quotes jsyk.

Buuut, I just came across something that made me lol:
"Yeah. The world is connected."

From some dude in Driftveil. It's like... yeah... you think I don't know that? XD;

Damn. I was gonna put that one :/ It made me go WTF? though, because I was playing the female character, it would only really make sense if you were playing as the dude? :L

Also Ghestisis' whole speech about how N is heartless :( It made me feel for the guy! What a meanie! :(

For the most part, I notice that most of the spellings are American and as a total spelling Nazi, and being from across the pond, this irritates me xD

For me, she says funny stuff like, "so he said he liked me...blah blah turns out it was a lie!" Maybe she's talking about the male character lol.

I loved the Marvelous bridge sign. I thought it was supposed to be a joke. A lot of the random stuff people have said about different ideas is interesting. Some random hiker guy was like "people in different cities can have such different ideas about things! It makes life interesting."

Poliwagged March 29th, 2011 5:37 PM

I thought the Marvelous Bridge one was an allusion to internet memes where people would be like "YEAH IT'S AWESOME MAN" "AND IT'S A FISH"

but I laughed nontheless.

I can't remember if anyone else posted this, but I agree! It's...so awkward he reveals it there, I kinda felt sad for my character, trapped on there with the king of the evil team. XD

Her sprite? Jeez, have you seen her official artwork? She's skinny as hell there haha. Lookin' like a model indeed.

The ferris wheel has some very awkward moments lol.

Or something along those lines. I haven't played the English version so I don't know if they decided to keep this line in, but I doubt it.

Yes it is in the English Version. My friend was doing the battle subway and I was watching and we laughed FOR HOURS!

I think it was cool how the former team rocket member with bad english from HG/SS (I think its in these games) goes off to start team rocket in a far-away region, and ends up quoting about being married in Black/white.

anyone else catch that?

I thought the reason he put my character on the Ferris Wheel was, so that when he tells me he is the King of Team Plasma, I wouldn't run away. XD
In real life, I would be like
" What is wrong with you, creep?"
Then just run away.

During that scene I was surprised that a ! mark didn't appear on our player character...it's almost as if he always knew that N was the king...

I was quite surprised with Brycen's dialogue. The Gym Leader battle with him was initiated immediately after I pressed A infront of him; he barely said anything at all. I was expecting some kind of philosophical mini-speech about Ice-type Pokémon but all he said was:

"You appear ready to face a Gym Leader.
Then...
Bring it!"

I like how concise his vocal mannerisms are & I enjoyed the comment by the Gym Caretaker after Brycen is defeated:

"From Brycen, I've learned how to say more with fewer words."

Pretty much sums him up.

Pebblycone April 9th, 2011 1:09 AM

I think this was in Chargestone Cave, and I was battling the Team plasma members, and one, when they noticed me, comes up to me and said: "Show me your strength!"
It made me laugh, because it instantly reminded me of Captain Falcon and his "Show me your moves!"

Idk.. Lol i know that im pressing the wrong item! why does it have to just insult me?! lol only joking.. but im sure you get my point.

Picture is so awesome.

"Senior trainer mom, off!" made me laugh. I even imagined the main character saying "MOM STOP EMBARASSING MEEEEEEE"

I really love Clay's lines. :D

"Doesn't this entire room kind of smell like Patrat?" - in one of the houses on Village Bridge.

1. Wtf.
2. Yes because we can smell through the DS...

That text is just awkward & really random imo.

Bluerang1 April 16th, 2011 1:03 AM

The baker that's part of the audience at the PokeMusical. She says our performance changed her life...

Seriously? Her life must be lame then if automated dancing Pokemon who wear awkward looking things and can only appeal with two items change her life.

NatureKeeper April 16th, 2011 10:58 AM

"Burn baby, burn!"
I was like... summarizing it up... WTF?

"Plasmaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!"
...

Ghetsis saying N has no heart. Actually, he has more heart than Ghetsis, that sick minded old sage.

The horoscopes on TV. Seriously, WTF?

Bloo April 16th, 2011 3:40 PM

Elsa is the most sexually suggestive person in the entire game, just so you know. Seriously, just look at her character design :/

Also, the Daycare Man says "I don't know how it got there". No, you know exactly how the egg got here. What a liar.

Mahtale April 16th, 2011 3:59 PM

There was a line spoken by Cheren that said something along the lines of "I must become the Champion to prove that I am really alive". I thought it was humorous given that nobody usually says that sort of thing aloud.

This isn't really a character, but it was one of the few lines in the entire series that made me laugh.

Omg, that made me laugh too! I thought it was hilarious.

When I was in Cold Storage, one of the workers there said, "Wear clothes when you are cold. Only humans could have come up with something so clever!" For some reason that made me laugh really hard x3

Seeds Horizon April 21st, 2011 10:33 AM

Crap..I had one that was super funny, pretty sure N/Bianca/Cheren said it..I was like O..O...? Because it was just..weird. The model one was awesome though..Go Elesa!<3.

"My team is always DYNAMIC"

"I... I am a Policeman!
Why has justice failed?"

"Bad for Team Plasma! Or Plasbad for short!"

"I'm a heart breaker....my name...Charles"

"NOOO! I LOOOOOOOST! PLASSSSSSMAAAAAAAAA!!"

Cynthia is so dirty:
"Ha ha. You prefer to take things slowly and rationally, am I right? When you're ready, come talk to me. I'll be happy to see you."

I just ride the feris wheel with the rich boy for the first time. Why would someone who feels sick ride a ferris wheel?

Seeds Horizon April 21st, 2011 2:15 PM

Ah! The guy in Marvelous Bridges lobby! By the fountain thing. He looks like a scientest and says " Why do people drink from vending machines?TO keep checking that..Is my dream" XD totally random dude staring intently at a vending machine? Win.

Female swimmer in Undella Bay: "Did you come here to see Cynthia in a bathing suit?"

My response: HELL YES.

"What?! I created Team Plasma with my own hands. I'm absolutely perfect! I AM PERFECTION! I am the perfect ruler of a perfect new world!" Ghetsis' speeches were so moving, I felt the storyline was made by him and N. The storyline of these two characters was truly Magnificent.

Neiko Star May 3rd, 2011 12:44 PM

I battled this veteran in the Nimbasa stadium. When I beat her, she said, "No matter how much we grow up, we'll always be trainers!"

:'D

These are all great xD I laughed every time a Team Plasma member went PLASSSSMA!!! It just cracks me up.

Charles was also hilarious.

Oh wow, I hadn't seen it (and don't recall it being mentioned here). I think it's a really nice quote, because it seems as if it's aimed at older players (which the game is trying to attract -back- to Pokemon, by making the protagonists older etc), who may have played Pokemon as a kid and then grew up and now are returning to playing. It's so adorable ;___;

(Yeah I said it. A quote from B/W is adorable).

I don't know why, but I have a feeling he's going to be a breakout character in the fandom from here on out. He's gonna be like Bruce Ironstaunch or Strong Bad.


Somehow, this needs to end up in the third version.


I had a sudden "No More Heroes" moment there. I was like... does that make my Excadrill a beam katana? And then I thought that that was pretty cool.


Hey, you don't want her, I'll take her.

I agree that the dialogue seems a bit clunky at times- I heard that this is a new translation team, so that might explain it. It's often difficult to write dialogue that sounds natural without constantly thinking it. Despite that, I think this game has an excellent script, and all the characters have distinct voices when I read their lines. Bianca sounds like a teenage girl, Clay's accent is great, and N does genuinely make me believe he's an intelligent, well-meaning guy that just isn't good with people (makes sense given how little human contact he had growing up). I've also noticed lots of NPCs talking about how much they love their Pokemon, and discussing ways that humans and Pokemon benefit each other. It's a good way of showing how Team Plasma's got the wrong idea.

I'm greatly looking foward to the E4 and final battles, since I'm only now at Opelucid in Black. I can't wait to see the endgame conflicts and actually be able to read some text along with it...

Homestar Runner Reference!!

Back On Topic, I Always Find It Sort Of Weird That If You Beat A Trainer, Leave That Route/Cave/Mountain/Building/Etc And Come Back, Talk To Them, And Repeat, They Always Say The Same Thing. I Know They're Pixels, But Still.

Count May 4th, 2011 1:49 PM

Something I came across today. When you battle Bianca on the bridge between the 7th and 8th gym towns, and you get to her last Pokémon, she says something like "Every time I watch my pokémon battle, it ends up like this!" And it kind of touched me. I was actually overwhelmed by the fact that it touched me xD

I've also gotten kind of bored, I guess, by the dialogues of Cheren and Bianca. They say the same thing OVER AND OVER AGAIN. Cheren will always say something in the sense of "What does it mean to be strong?" and Bianca will say "I've been thinking about what I want to do in life". Really Bianca, I know that by now!

Other than that, Bianca is really sweet.

"There are bad ways to win-- and good ways to lose. What's interesting and troubling is that it's not always clear which is which. A flipped coin doesn't always land heads or tails. Sometimes it may never land at all..."
I always make sure I hit Grimsley before the last one during my E4 runs, just so I can hear that line again. I love it :D.

I can't remember the exact quote, but Grimsley says something like:
"Contests like this are proof we are really living..."
That's just...weird :\

And a few of the Roughneck's in the Battle Subway who call themselves losers and stuff :(
