Pokémon quotes

"Kids today will buy anything!"

"When it comes to immaturity, no one knows better than Jessie, so maybe our girl's onto something."

"How can I argue with that logic?"

"You're inventory, not artillery!!"

"Just like goody-goody Pokémon to band together and blow us apart! I gotta say, they sure did a bang-up job, though."

Okay, I did challenge Fantina and her Ghost-type Pokémon before, but she kept hittin' us with Hypnosis, and I couldn't do a thing about it. That is, until next time.

So now you think next time's the charm? All you have to do is keep hammering away, and all her Ghost-type Pokémon will fall over.

I'll win it! I happen to have faith in my Pokémon! And they've got faith in me, too. This time, it's different!

You're pathetic!

All right, we'll just show you what have we've got! Let's have a battle!

All you had to say is that you were using Chimchar's Blaze. That would have been enough.

I already told you! I don't mess around with Blaze!

A pathetic trainer and his equally pathetic Pokémon.

[getting offended] WHAT WAS THAT?!

[also offended] Grotle!!

Alright, so where's your faith? If you really think you could win with faith alone, then you're no better than any low life loser trainer out there because you have no idea how Grotle's changed! [This line will later be referenced as to why Ash lost his full battle later on in the show. Many fans like to claim that "Ash's Turtwig is a strong fast cute unevolved Pokémon, therefore it does not need evolution to prove its worth." However, because Turtwig shares the same backstory as Bulbasaur and if it remained in an unevolved state, Turtwig would have been solidified as a complete Bulbasaur knock-off, thus universally hated by fans.]

[voiceover] Barry's Busting Out All Over!

Fantina, I'm back for our rematch, just like I said!

Oh, my aching head! [Gets up] You all right, Pikachu?

Pikachu

Pika.

Oh, man.

Huh?

Why don't you two look where you're going? I'm going to have to give you a fine. You've got ten seconds to pay up.

Huh?

Nine, eight, seven, six, five, four, three, two... Huh? Don't just stand there! I'm going to be the strongest trainer in the world, you know. You've got that? Later! [Runs off]

What's his problem?

Pikachu

Pika. Pika?

Huh? [Notices Barry's badge case and picks it up] It's a badge case.

[Singing] "La la la laaaa!"

"Perhaps you forget Drifblim can use Psychic moves as well... like Psychic!"

[sees Chimchar's Flamethrower and Drifblim's Will-o-Wisp form a deadly fireball attack] Flame on flame, huh? [Gives a rude smirk to Fantina, hatching a plan]

That's strange, is something funny?

It didn't just break the shield. That Flamethrower absorbed the Will-o-Wisp making it more powerful! Guess you don't know everything about Counter-shields after all!

Perhaps I spoke a little too soon. [Sorry Fantina, but Ash has mastered that tactic first!]

Gales abreeze, but I think it's time for Hypnosis!

Chimchar, Flamethrower! [Chimchar does so, knocking out Drifblim. Fantina's fatal flaw for this battle are both overuse of Hypnosis and poorly developed Counter-Shield]

"Man, oh man, Ash. Commemorative picture, my foot. This is all your fault, you know."

"What?! All my fault?!"

"Argue all you want, but nothing's gonna change."

"Gliscor!"

"Staravia! Gliscor!"

"Staravia!"

"Gliscor!" [glomps Ash as he lands]

"Nice to see you, too."

"Gliscor!"

"I'm not exactly prepared for Gliscor love!"

"Cookie!"
