So I had to come running looking for you. So, are you two going to take the challenge? The Frontier has five facilities that are all dedicated to battling. Each one has a unique set of rules, so they're all different. Of course, you have to be good to win at any of them. Anyway, I'm satisfied to see that you're both doing well. I'll go back to my usual place in the . I'll be looking forward to your challenge!"

*After being defeated
:"What else is there to say? You came prepared to make it to the job, and that's just what you did! You know, the thing I love the most about being the Tower Tycoon is taking in the view from up here. As I look over all of Sinnoh, I think about how each day starts with a brand new Trainer taking the first step on their Pokémon journey. That thought alone fills me with hope, and today that hope became reality when you defeated me! If we continue this way, passing the baton down through the generations, then tomorrow will be as limitless as time and space itself! <Player>, you were brilliant! Now you can truly declare yourself the winner, and carry Sinnoh into a shining future!"

*Being defeated
:"Spectacular! Truly spectacular!"
*After being defeated
:"Bravo, <player>! I see you've nurtured your relationship with your Pokémon into an unbreakable bond! And son, hold your head up high! You've got absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. You've had a grand adventure with a worthy rival and made it all the way here. As a father, nothing could make me prouder! <Player>, let me thank you once more! And if it isn't too much trouble, please keep looking after <rival> here. Now go—your adventure's just begun! Reach out into the vast world before you, that endless time and borderless space, and grab it for yourself! Walk on!"

:: Did something happen?: "Nothing comes to mind..."

: "Perhaps I did something that upset him without me realizing."

;Costume Event - New Heroes Are Born
*A Captivating Battle
: "Nice! Seems like you're both getting it!"
: "No problem at all! Now, let's carry on!"
: "There's more to making a battle exciting than just going all out and winning!"
: "For example, in the Battle Tower, I adjust the strength of my attacks based on my opponent's win streak."
: "By doing that, I draw out the challenger's strength and encourage their growth!"
: "Your battle theater should follow the same idea."
: "If you can draw out your opponent's strength, I bet you the crowd would go wild!"
: "Go on—you can be all that you desire!"
;Sync Pair Story - A Day with Palmer
: "Ohh, hello there, <player>! Did you come here to battle as well?"
: "I myself have been battling nonstop since this morning!"
:: You like battling?: "But of course! So much that I don't even notice the time passing!"
:: Nonstop since morning?!: "That's right! I got so wrapped up in it, I didn't even notice the time passing!"
: "Back at the Battle Tower, I was there to face challengers..."
: "but here on Pasio, I'm just another Trainer!"
: "I simply can't tell you how much fun I've been having battling as a challenger myself!"
: "And I'm really grateful to Regigigas too, for sticking with me through all this."
: "Regigigas is a really reliable partner...and it's extremely powerful!"
: "So powerful that legend tells of it towing whole continents with ropes in ancient times."
: "Because of that, at first I thought the two of us could overcome all of Pasio's sync pairs put together..."
: "But it's clearly not going to be that easy. This place is jam-packed with strong opponents!"
: "So I figured that for the time being, Regigigas and I could train here on Pasio to become even more powerful!"
: "And now that you're here... Well, it must be some sort of sign, wouldn't you say?"
: "And when two Trainers meet, you know what happens next!"
: "You know, once you're an adult, it's a lot harder to keep up the habit of battling any Trainer whose eyes you meet."
: "But I'm trying to remember the way I felt back when I was a kid!"
: "Oh, but...wait a second!"
: "Ahh! Oh no! I'm supposed to meet up with my son in just a bit!"
: "I guess I got so wrapped up in our conversation that I totally forgot!"
:: You mean Barry?: "Yeah, that's right! I hear you've become friends with him, too!"
:: Your son?: "Yes, he's a Trainer named Barry..."
:: "Oh, really? It's nice to hear you two get along!"
: "It sure makes me proud as a parent to see how strong and confident he's grown through his adventures outside of Sinnoh..."
: "But I still can't help worrying about him a bit!"
: "He just can't seem to stay still for a moment, you see... I wonder who he takes after..."
: "Hm? What are you looking at me like that for?"
:: Like father, like son, eh?: "You think Barry and I are similar? You mean because we're both so strong and confident...?"
:: You're a lot like Barry.: "What, because I'm strong and confident too? Hahaha! You've got that right!"
: "Oh, there I go again!"
: "At this rate I'll be late to meet Barry, and he'll make me pay a fine!"
: "So I'll see you later! Next time, we've definitely got to have a battle!"
