Professor Birch/Games/Quotes/ORAS

Intro

 * "Hi! Sorry to keep you waiting! Welcome to the world of ! My name is . But everyone calls me the . And this…is what we call a "." This world is widely inhabited by creatures known as Pokémon. We humans live alongside Pokémon, at times playing together as friends, and at times helping one another out. And sometimes, we just like to have fun battling others like us! But as close as we are, we don't know everything about Pokémon. In fact, there are still many, many mysteries surrounding Pokémon. I do research to try to unravel those Pokémon mysteries. But that's enough about me!"
 * "What about you? Are you a boy? Or are you a girl?"
 * Either choice: "Will you give me your name, too?"
 * "So you're ?"
 * Yes: "Ah… I see! You're THAT ! You're the one who's moving to Littleroot Town, where I live! Are you ready? Your very own adventure is now about to unfold! Be courageous and leap into the world of Pokémon where dreams, adventures, and friendships await! I expect we'll be meeting again soon. Come see me in my Pokémon Lab!"


 * First time
 * "H-help me!"
 * "Halloo! You over there! Please! Help me out! In my Bag! There are some Poké Balls!


 * If the player attempts to leave
 * "Wh-where are you going?! Don't leave me like this!"


 * If the player attempts to run from his fight against
 * "Y-you're not just going to leave me here, are you?!"


 * After the fight against
 * "Whew… I went into the tall grass to survey wild Pokémon when I was suddenly jumped! You saved my hide. Thanks a lot!"
 * "Oh? But you're Norman's /, ! I didn't even realize who you were at first. You've grown into quite the young /. This isn't the place for a chat, though. Come along to my lab."


 * First time after entering the Hall of Fame
 * "H-help me!"
 * "Oh! Why, if it isn't again! H-help a professor out! I've got some Poké Balls in my Bag there!"
 * "My, my! Good thing that Shroomish wasn't as fierce as it seemed! I sure do appreciate your trying to help me out, though. In fact... Why don't you keep that Pokémon? Yes, that one from the Johto region! Well, I hope to see you later. I somehow get the feeling that I will, if I stick around here!"


 * First time after completing the Delta Episode
 * "H-help me!"
 * "Oh! Why, if it isn't again! H-help a professor out! I've got some Poké Balls in my Bag there!"
 * "My goodness, I sure misread that situation, didn't I? I thought that Machoke from the Pokémon Postal Service was a wild Machoke! My, my, what a slipup... I sure do appreciate your trying to help me out, though. In fact... Why don't you keep that Pokémon? Yes, that one from the Unova region! Well, I hope to see you later. I somehow get the feeling that I will again, if I stick around here!"


 * After entering the Hall of Fame a second time
 * "H-help me!"
 * "Oh! Why, if it isn't yet again! H-help a professor out! I've got some Poké Balls in my bag there!"
 * "Oh my! I sure did misread that situation, now didn't I? I assumed it was a Pokémon chasing after me, but it was just my own wife! My, my, what a slipup… I sure do appreciate your trying to help me out, though. In fact… Why don't you keep that Pokémon? Yes, that one from the Sinnoh region! Well, I hope to see you later. Stop by the lab anytime. Always happy to see you!"

Pokémon Lab

 * First time
 * ''"So, ! I've heard so much about you from your father. But he said you don't have your own Pokémon yet. If that's true, that was quite the performance back there! Looks like you really are your father's /! Oh, yes! To say thanks for rescuing me out there, how about I give you that Pokémon you used earlier? While you're at it, why not give a nickname to that ?"
 * Yes: "Yup! That's the spirit! So what kind of name will you go with?"
 * No: ''"Oh, so that's how you like to do things? Not even going to give it a nickname, are you?


 * ''"You know, if you work with your Pokémon and gain experience, I think you'll make a pretty excellent Trainer. My /, /, happens to be out on right now, surveying Pokémon for me. It might not be a bad idea for you to head out that way yourself. What do you think?
 * Yes: "Great! I'm sure /'ll be happy to hear that, too. / can help teach you what it means to be a Trainer. Oh, yes! And if you're ever lost along the way, just use the on your PokéNav Plus! You can use use it to see how to get to, where / ought to be. And if you or your Pokémon get tired, get some rest back at your new house."
 * No: "Oh, don't be that way! You should go meet my kid."


 * If talked to again
 * "Oh, yes! And if you're ever lost along the way, just use the on your PokéNav Plus! You can use use it to see how to get to, where / ought to be. And if you or your Pokémon get tired, get some rest back at your new house."


 * Second time
 * "So I hear you beat / on your first try. That's amazing! /'s been helping me with my research for a long time, so / has a pretty long history as a Trainer already. Mm-hmm! I think that settles it!, I ordered this Pokédex for my research, but I think you should take it. That Pokédex is a high-tech tool that automatically makes a record of any Pokémon you meet or catch. My / / takes / with / everywhere / goes. Whenever / catches a rare Pokémon and records its data in the Pokédex, why, / comes to seek me out wherever I am in the field and show me! The Pokémon and people you will meet… And the great expanse of nature that lies before you! Experience them both while you fill in your Pokédex. I'd love it if your world seemed wider than ever! Though I'd love it even more if you came back from time to time to show me what progress you've made. …Arghhh! I'm getting the itch to get out and do fieldwork again!"


 * If talked to again
 * "The Pokémon and people you will meet… And the great expanse of nature that lies before you! Experience them both while you fill in your Pokédex. I'd love it if your world seemed wider than ever! Though I'd love it even more if you came back from time to time to show me what progress you've made. …Arghhh! I'm getting the itch to get out and do fieldwork again!"


 * Subsequent times
 * After capturing/defeating Groudon/Kyogre
 * "Welcome back, ! You must be tired after all your recent exploits. Brendan/May has been keeping me updated about all of your grand adventures around Hoenn. After hearing all that you've been up to, there is something I'd definitely like to share with you. The fact of the matter is that after you resolved that kerfuffle with the super ancient Pokémon, a number of Pokémon never before recorded in the Hoenn region began to appear all over! Those Pokémon are precisely the subject of my many long years of research… They are Pokémon which are thought to have resided in Hoenn thousands of years ago! We'll finally be able to meet Pokémon never before seen, the very Pokémon I've pursued all these years! I'm so excited I feel like I'm about to burst! So excited that I went right ahead and upgraded the Pokédex to be ready for all of them! Now, let me upgrade your Pokédex while you're here!"
 * "You'll now find the National Pokédex on your Pokédex's menu, so use it well! It is being suggested that Hoenn is now more hospitable to Pokémon after that incident in Sootopolis. However, that does not necessarily mean the environment has become any more hospitable to humanity. People, Pokémon, and nature… The balance between these three great ecosystems has shifted greatly. I can't wait for you to start exploring this new world! Exploration may help us learn how best to coexist with Pokémon from this time forward. I hope you will find your own answers to this great question, as you continue your journey with your Pokédex!"

Pokédex evaluation
Note: Prof. Birch evaluates the Hoenn Pokédex based on seen Pokémon and the National Pokédex based on caught Pokémon. Event Pokémon count towards evaluation, unless noted otherwise.

(After the player has at least made it to Petalburg City, Birch will evaluate the player's Pokédex on the PC or in his lab.)

 * If talked to in the Lab

 * Cancel
 * "Your Pokédex must be jam-packed with all the memories of your journey… I hope you treasure it always!"
