===Pokémon Scarlet and Violet===
;Central Plaza
: "Well, that was painful to watch."
: "If it isn't Carmine! And...Carmine's new mystery friend!"
: "Think I might've heard of you, though... Are you that new kid with the wild backstory?"
: "C'mon, now. At least introduce me!"
: "Beautiful intro. Thanks."
: "What about Kieran? You friends with the guy?"
::That's right! 
::Yeah, we're friends
: "Ohoho, I see. That's great!"
: "All right, <player>! How about I show you our clubroom?"
: "You haven't joined any of the clubs we've got here, right?"
: "Take it from me—you'll have a way better time here if you join one."
: "We'd love to have such an interesting new member! In fact, we better call dibs now."
: "Come with me."
;League Club Room
: "Aaand here we are."
: "'Cause of Kieran? Nah, don't worry. He won't show up here anytime soon."
: "Anyway, this is the base of operations for the League Club!"
: "On behalf of the whole club: Glad you're here!"
::What's this League Club? 
::What does the club do?
: "Heh heh. Glad you asked!"
: "We Blueberry Academy students have our own Pokémon battle ranking system: the BB League."
: "Here in the League Club, we battle each other to train up so we can climb the ranks."
: "We win, we lose, we have a good ol' rowdy time. Such is our humble club in a nutshell!"
: "Yup. Though I guess we're having less of a good ol' rowdy time than usual lately."
: "Too bad you didn't make the cut, Carmine."
: "Heh heh. That's no lie."
: "Whatcha think, <player>? Fun club, huh?"
::Yes:"Oooh, I can feel the enthusiasm! That's what I'm talkn' about!"
::No:"I have a feeling you're more into the idea than you're letting on!"
: "Aaanyway, think that takes care of it. You're in— on a trial basis!"
: "You heard me! Far as the Drayster's concerned, we're clubmates now! Trial-basis clubmates!"
: "So now you can use this clubroom freely, and do whatever with the stuff here."
: "Check out the computer over there, too. It's super helpful."
: "It lets you use your BP to support kids in other clubs. They'll return the favor in different ways."
: "Here—give it a shot, and you'll see what I mean."
: "Try sending that to Mitch in the baseball club. He can help you out with your throwing form."
* After contributing BP
: "Oh, whoa—you did it. Not bad for your first time. That'll teach me to doubt your skills! Here, I've got a really nice present for you—from one charming catch to another!"
: "You can have this too. Put it on, and you'll look just like the Drayster!"
: "Anyway, feel free to computer it up any way you want! Like I said, we're trial-basis clubmates now. And that's not all! For a limited time, you can have as many of these snacks as you want!"
: "All that explaining left me starving. Think I'm gonna head on over to the cafeteria. If you wanna officially join us, maybe we can have a cafeteria date to talk details!"
: "Be seein' ya!"
;Blueberry Academy Cafeteria
: "Hey, <player>. No need to stand there. Grab a seat."
: Here's the Drayster take: The Academy Special's the best thing on the menu. It's all so soft, you can basically just gulp it down. Barely even need to chew."
::Wow, that sounds tasty!: "Heh heh! You know what's up."
::...Chew your food, Drayton: "Heh heh! You and my ma would get along."
: "So listen—your Pokémon are pretty strong, yeah? With a team like that, you've got a shot at becoming the BB League Champion. Wouldn't that be wild? An exchange student just rolling up here and snatching the crown? I wanna see you join the BB League, <player>. You in?"
::Sure, I'll—/I don't kno—: "Look who's decided to grace us with their presence."
: "Nothing special. Just thought we could grab a bite. Where better to do that than the cafeteria?"
: "I'll take that as a no. So I can't swing a lunch date with you, even if I've got your ol' pal with me?"
: "You didn't hear that he/she was coming to study abroad here?"
: "We're already tight, us two. In fact, I was just asking <player> to join the BB League!"
: "Aw, c'mon. Do you all hate fun and friendship or something? You wanna exclude some who's taking our same classes and living in our same dorms? How's he/she not one of us?! And isn't this place supposed to be all about students having autonomy? I think we should vote on it. I'm a yes, obviously. How 'bout you, Lacey?"
: "Two against two, huh. All right, then! What says the reigning BB League Champion, our mighty Kieran?"
: "Heh. Guess we've got our answer."
: "Sorry, <player>... Guess you'll be joining the BB League, huh? Well, let's look on the bright side! Maybe you and Kieran'll come out of this better friends! Don't worry, I'll be right behind you. Every step of the way. But now that the decision's been made, we better get you officially signed up. Meet me at the reception desk in the school's entrance area!"
* Entrance
:: If spoken to: "There you are! This is where we can get you signed up for the BB League."
: "Oh, don't mind that! We Elite Four talked it over real quick. My friend here's good to join."
: "Didn't expect you to ride up in shining armor and save the day."
: "Heh heh. That's just peachy."
: "Well, he's Mr. Big-Deal Mighty Champion, after all."
: "Me? No way. This was all his/her idea! Right, <player>?"
::Yes: "That's the spirit. Feeling the human urge to do great things, right?"
::No: ""No...doubt about it!" Hear that, Carmine? He/She's hungry for action!"
: "Great timing."
: "You can start with whichever of us you want. Your call. Any time you want to battle one of us, you'll have to do a fun little trial we cooked up first. Sounds good, right? Catch you in the Terarium, bud!"
*Before Kieran’s Champion battle
: "Here’s the Drayster take: I liked Kieran better when he had his hair down. He used to be this quiet little guy. Trembled like a leaf. Had all the spine of a . He’d hide behind Carmine if you so much as breathed too loud. But I’ll tell you what… When it came to Pokemon battling, I never saw so much joy in anyone’s eyes as in his! But then, outta nowhere, he changed. Now he’s relentless-pushes himself, pushes everyone around him… Nothing good’s gonna come out of this. Someone’s gotta snap him out of it."
;League Club Room
* First visit
: "Yo, Champ. Gotta thank you again for conquering the BB League."
: "All the tension here melted right away once we got our new Champion!"
: "If I had my Drayster druthers, Kieran and I’d be having fun battling again..."
: "I thought we’d have patched things up by now, but I guess things ain’t that simple."
:: It’ll work out! / Just give it time!: "You know just what to say, huh? Good quality in a reigning Champion!"
: "Guess I ended up kinda using you to try and get what I wanted, huh, bud?"
: "Sorry about that. I didn’t mean to. I dropped the slacker life for once, and I just got carried away."
: "Anyway, hope you’ll accept my apology. No attitude, just gratitude."
* Second visit
: "Yo, <player>! How goes the busy life of the League Club president? Nose to the grindstone?"
:: “President”?! / Wait—me?!: "Hang on, you didn’t know? Yeah, the BB League Champ doubles as president. So that’s officially you now. Them’s the breaks!"
:: I didn’t know! / No one told me!: "My bad! Yeah, that’s the deal!"
: "Don’t worry about it, though! We all got your back."
: "Even when I was on top of the game, I made it a point to not call myself Champion."
: "That way the Elite Four of us could just trade off club prez duties...and I wouldn’t have to do ’em all myself!"
: "Anyway, I’ll take responsibility if anything gets hairy, so don’t worry. Dive in and prez it up, prez!"
* Third visit
: "Yo yo, bud. Got an update regarding the “you being League Club president” thing. And I quote: “Foisting all those responsibilities onto <player>—that’s just not right!”"
: "Yeah, Lacey really raked me over the coals for that—and for my general slack-offery."
: "And so...guess we’re now all stuck splitting League Club president duties again."
:: Give it your all!: "With all due respect, <player>, the Drayster’s trying to give way less than that!"
:: Congrats, co-prez!: "Whoof! Didn’t take you for the facetious type, bud!"
: "I’m really not excited about having more work..."
: "Feel free to come take some off my plate if you ever feel like helping. Seriously. Any time. Help."
: "Come to think of it, part of a club president’s job is supporting the other members, right?"
: "Guess I can do that much! Supportive mode, activate! Let’s trade Pokémon...supportively!"
:: Yes: "That’s what I like to hear. I’m putting up Duraludon, obviously! What’ll you trade me?"
::: After selecting a Pokémon: "So you’re down to trade your <Pokémon> for my Duraludon, bud?"
:: No: "Aw, c’mon...don’t be like that! We gotta work together here!"
::: If talked to again: "Oooh, you feeling that team spirit now? Let’s trade it up, then!"
:: If player only has one Pokémon in their party: "Hang on, bud. You’ve only got one Pokémon with you. You gotta bring more, or we can’t trade."
: After the trade: "<Pokémon>’s a great choice. That’s a Champion’s Pokémon for sure! Don’t worry. I may slack on a lot of stuff, but I’ll take good care of your <Pokémon>."
*Rematch
:"Hey, bud. You up for a battle?"
:Yes: "Nice. Let's stroll on over to the battle court, then."
:: If player only has one Pokémon in their party: "Uh, hang on, bud! We’re going for a Double Battle. Better bring at least one more Pokémon!"
:No: "Fair enough! You can't go giving 100 percent all the time. Gotta know when to hit the breaks."
*In battle
::Upon sending his last Pokémon: "That one stung real good, bud! The way it oughta in sting in an all-out battle!"
::Upon stallizing his : "Now watch this dragon's blood boil! Show 'em who's in control!"
::Upon having his stallized use Draco Meteor: "Can't have that blood all boiled up for nothin'. Get ready for an onslaught-this won't be pretty!"
::Upon being defeated: "Heh heh. That's the way, bud."
* After first rematch
: "Man, facing off against you is ridiculous. So much fun!"
: "I’ve got something for you, bud. A little token of my everlasting gratitude."
: "Here—don’t mind the dust! I really oughta clean my closet."
:: Player obtains Tracksuit (Black / Gold): "Now we can be twinsies! Heh heh."
*After subsequent rematches
:If defeated by the player: "There you go again getting even better. Guess I should've expected that, huh, bud?"
::Player obtains a reward
::"Y'know, I think I've come to rely on our battles as a way to de-stress!"
:If defeated the player: "Heh heh! Don't mind me, just scooping up a W over here. I get it if you're upset, but don't go full Kieran on me, OK?"
*Talking to after rematch
:"I'm really not made for learning in classrooms. I've gotten held back...three times I think? But I get to savor the sweet school life longer than everyone else. It's a pretty good deal."
:"Man, I love chairs. Don't you love chairs? What lifesavers. I don't get why everyone doesn't just sit all the time. Standing up's tiring work!"
:"You probably think this is a skirt I've got on, huh? Heh heh! Not quite! I just tied my cape around my waist."
:"Your <Pokémon> and I are getting along great! You can rest easy - I'm giving it all the care one of my buds deserves."
:"That I traded you loves being sparkly clean. Give it a good polishing now and then, would ya?"
