I wanted to stop by, because I thought maybe I'd get to see some rare Pokémon or something. But what I found... and don't freak out when you hear this..."

;

* Upon being defeated
:"Maybe your Pokémon are doing a little TOO well..."
* After being defeated
:"Aww, shoot! When we battled, we scared off that ... You know Cubone, right, <player>? It's a Pokémon that's always wearing a skull!"

:"<Player>, go! Go beat the Team Rocket boss once and for all!"
;Saffron City
:"<Player>, you did it! You beat Giovanni, right? That Archer guy made a run for it, so I chased him all the way out here, and then... all the Team Rocket Grunts ran right outta Saffron City, too! Guess we're lucky you're such a strong Trainer, <player>! To be honest, I was a little scared. Like, what would have happened to us if it turned out the bad guys were the strongest, you know? But you and me, <player>... We really managed to save Silph! Nobody will have to go through what Cubone went through ever again!"
:"All right! Now that everything's back to normal, I guess it's time for the next Pokémon Gym! Have you been to the already, <player>? How many Badges have you got? ...That many, huh? Wow. Maybe we'll both make it all the way to the Pokémon League!"

;Cinnabar Island
* After earning the 
:"Ah! So this is where you were! I thought you might have made your way to Cinnabar Island by now. Did you beat Blaine? Really? Congratulations! You need to have Gym Badges to get into the Pokémon League, right? I've got seven already! Which means that the only one left is... Yeah! It must be the Gym in , right? It was closed up last time I checked, though. Have you been in the Viridian City Gym yet, <player>? You haven't, right? I guess I'll try stopping by Viridian City one more time."
;Viridian City
* After earning seven Badges
:"...Huh? Why's the door locked?"
:"Open sesame!"
:"Huh. Yeah, I guess that isn't gonna work..."
:"Man... Oh! Hey, <player>! Sheesh, say something if you're standing there! Watching me act all embarrassing like that..."
:"Well, never mind that! So, how many Gym Badges you got these days? ...S-seven?! Then it looks like we're even! All that's left now is the Viridian City Gym... Same for you, right? But this place is never open... I guess we've gotta tell someone that we haven't been able to get into the Gym... But who should we talk to?"
::Professor Oak: "Yeah, that's what I was thinking, too. Let's go see if he knows anything!"
::<Partner Pokémon>: (after the partner Pokémon responds) "Uh-huh... Uh-huh... Makes sense... If I could understand anything you said! This is getting us nowhere..."

:"I finally caught up to you! I got an , too! That means we can finally get into the Pokémon League! I heard the Elite Four are incredibly strong... But there's no turning back now, right? You think you're ready, <player>? Show me the Pokémon you've raised!"
* Upon being defeated
:"I've raised my Pokémon up this much... and still I can't beat you, huh?"
* After being defeated
:"You know, <player>... I've always felt like I needed to look after you, ever since we were young. But I think... I think you're the one who has more talent as a Trainer. It's...frustrating. I've never felt this way before. Is this what makes it fun to raise Pokémon? Whatever it is, I know I don't want to lose again! It's weird to even have to ask, but... let me go on ahead first!"
;Indigo Plateau (initial battle)
* Before battle
:"You did it, <player>! Oh man, that's great... I've been waiting! I beat the Elite Four and became the !"
:"You probably heard from the professor, right? From now on, the Champion will be part of the Pokémon League and battle all kinds of Trainers!"

;Player's house
* After becoming Champion
:"Anybody home? Hey, <player>! I'm coming up!"
:"Morning, Kanto Champion! But don't get too comfortable with that title. I plan on stealing it from you soon! First, though... Did you hear the rumors? There's talk going around about some crazy strong-looking Pokémon being spotted..."
::What kind of Pokémon?: "I hear it looks super strong—and super cool!
::I want to catch it!: "Ha! I knew you wouldn't be able to resist a rumor like that!
:::Either way: The Pokémon was seen near ! And apparently it ran away into a cave somewhere there. That's all I know. So! I say we both go try to catch this Pokémon! Whoever catches it first is the winner!"
;Cerulean City
* After catching 
:"Hey, <player>! Oh! Wait, don't tell me... You already caught that superstrong Pokémon, didn't you? I knew it! So, it's called Mewtwo, huh?"
:"Man, you got to Mewtwo before me or !"
:"Huh? Oh, I ran into this gutsy girl who said she was looking for a powerful Pokémon. I think she meant Mewtwo. Well, I guess that's that... Here, take these. I won't need 'em now!"
:"I just saw that girl come in here, too. She must still be looking for Mewtwo. You should go show it to her!"
;Indigo Plateau (rematch)
* Before battle
:"I've been waiting for you... Champion! I've been training every day to try to beat you, <player>! And I'm not gonna lose today! Let's battle!"
