==In the core series games==

;Initial battle
*Before battle
:"Bzweeeeep! Sorry, don't mind me. What I'm using is an invention of mine. It's my data-analyzing machine It's telling me what you've rented for this match. I see! You've rented <Pokémon> , <Pokémon>, and <Pokémon>. I have to say, that's a good setup. Like, say, [random number between 10 and 99] percent? Oh, don't let that number concern you! All righty, let's get going!"
*Defeating the player
:"See? Just as analyzed."
*Being defeated
:"Whoa! You sure showed me!"
*After being defeated
:"Hmm... I got handed the loss here. It's not making me happy at all, losing. Even though I'm not happy, I did glean some useful data, I suppose. That makes me glad I battled you. So, did you get to like those Pokémon you rented? As a , it would sure make me happy if you did. Next time, come back with different rental Pokémon."
;Rematch
*Before battle
:"Bzweeeeep! Let's see what I can see about you through my data-analyzing machine. So, what have you rented for this match...? I see! You've rented <Pokémon> , <Pokémon>, and <Pokémon>. I have to say, that's a good setup. It's a combination of friendship with cooperation all around. I'd say it's like [random number between 10 and 99] percent? Oh, don't let that number concern you! All righty, let's get going! No losing for me this time!"
*Being defeated
:"Whoa! You sure showed me!"
*After being defeated
:"Hmm... I got handed another loss. It's not making me happy at all, this. In fact, I'm stewing here. I thought I learned a lot about Pokémon since I lost to you. But that's all right. Some things you learn from winning. But some things you learn by losing. I hope you'll keep renting our Pokémon and give me a chance to redeem myself!"

;Battle Villa
* Before battle
:"Bzweeeeep! Hmm... How very interesting..."
:"According to my data-interpreting machine... Yes. Very interesting indeed. Looks like...90 percent?"
:"Oh, don't let the beeping concern you. It's time to begin!"
* After being defeated
:"Whoa! You sure showed me!"
:"I, on the other hand, appear to have had suboptimal results this time. That 90 percent figure must have been your odds, not mine."
;Story Event - The Girl in Black and White
*Thorton's Proposal
* Off-screen, as "???"
: "Bzweeeeep!"
* After appearing, as Thorton
: "Oh, don't mind me."
: "I just thought I'd take this opportunity to perform an analysis on your Pokémon. Your battle earlier has me quite intrigued."
: "Oh, these? I bought them for an experiment. I plan to feed them to Pokémon and observe their responses."
: "Why, do you want them? I guess I could let them go if you agree to battle me instead."
: "Collecting data from your Pokémon is worth more to me than a few ice cream cones."
: "This will be fun. I look forward to analyzing all of the data later."
*Synergy beyond Analysis?!
: "Whoa! Whoa! You're even more impressive than I thought!"
: "Hmm, this can't be right... My data-interpreting machine was just reading at 78% a moment ago."
: "Oh, don't mind me! Just mumbling to myself... You can just ignore that number."
: "It seems my data analysis was insufficient to keep up with the movements and commands of you three and your Pokémon."
: "A sub-optimal performance indeed... I stand defeated."
: "I'd have to collect a lot more data to be sure. I think there's something else at work here... something that can't be expressed in numbers."
: "Ah, that reminds me. Four Casteliacones in exchange for a battle, as promised."
: "Oh. Well, that's unfortunate. Though that is to be expected with ice cream."
;Story Event - All Aboard the Victory Train
*Full Speed Ahead
: "Bzweeeeep! Hmm... How very interesting..."
: "According to my data-interpreting machine... Yes. Very interesting, indeed. Looks like..."
: "Th...thirty-two percent?!"
: "Oh, don't let it concern you. I'm sure you'll figure it out once we start our battle!"
: "It's time to begin!"
: "Wow! You es sure are strong!"
: "*sigh* I guess my machine's analysis was accurate after all..."
;Story Event - Melancholy Wally
*Two Gardevoir Trainers
: "Bzweeeeep!"
: "Hmm...let's see. Looks like...50%?"
;Special Event - Metronome Day
: "Whoa! Rental Pokémon!"
: "Apparently, will share good luck..."
: "It's also said that happiness will come to those who see a gathering of dancing!"
:* If spoken to
:: "Bzweeeeep! Hmm... Interesting..."
:: "Oh? Are you curious about my data-interpreting machine? I think we'll get along!"
;Trainer Files - Two Factory Heads
*Rowdy Rental Pokémon
: ""Rowdy rental Pokémon"?"
: "Fine with me!"
: "Rental Pokémon that are hard to handle? Sounds like fun!"
: "Wow! They're just like you said!"
* Off-screen
: "Bzweeeeep! Hmm... I see..."
* On-screen
: "I rather like this Magnezone."
*The Results of Training
: "Bzweeeeep!"
: "Hmm... I'd say they've improved by about, say, one percent?"
: "Sorry we weren't able to live up to your expectations."
: "Huh? You wouldn't mind?"
: "Hmm... I'd say our affinity is around, say, one hundred percent?"
;Sync Pair Story - A Day with Thorton
: "Hmm. According to my data-interpreting machine, this should be the correct path..."
:: Are you OK?: "Whoa! <player>! Are we in your way?"
:: You're blocking the way.: "Whoa! <player>! Sorry. Are we in your way?"
: "My and I were just analyzing our battle from yesterday."
:: Analyzing?/What for?: "After a battle, I like to use my data-interpreting machine to learn everything I can about my opponent's Pokémon."
: "There's a vast number of Trainers here on Pasio right now."
: "Being able to gather so much diverse data all in one place is incredibly useful."
: "Or at least it should be..."
:: It's not going well?: "Not really... It's my machine. I keep getting really strange results."
:: Are your opponents not very good?: "No, they were all really strong! I should have been able to gather some brilliant data from them, but...something's off."
: "I've had many battles where my machine refuses to analyze my opponents properly or its calculations are way off."
: "Perhaps my data-interpreting machine is in need of repair..."
:: Pokémon are more than just data, you know.: "Not just data...? You mean they can't be fully expressed with just numbers?"
:: Surprise is what makes a battle.: "You make a good point. Sometimes battles simply can't be analyzed—it's impossible to codify and predict everything."
: "That reminds me—I haven't been able to express you and your Pokémon in numerical values yet, <player>."
: "And my Bronzong here..."
: "I chose to pair up with it because of the protective, metal nature of its body..."
: "but also because it has an air of mystery about it—something that can't be quantified. It just seemed really interesting."
: "It surprised me, in a way, to discover such a huge pool of strength that couldn't be measured by machine analysis alone."
:: You mean like sync strength?: "Precisely! Sometimes the strength of a sync pair—the strength of their bond—can overcome even the strongest opponents!"
:: Like the strength of determination?: "Certainly! With enough determination, one can overcome even the strongest opponents!"
: "Wait a minute. That means..."
: "If I can somehow figure out how to enhance my data-interpreting machine so that it can measure things like trust and determination..."
: "perhaps I can become even stronger in Pokémon battles."
: "Whoa! Whoa! The lightbulb just went off in my brain!"
: "There's so much to do but so little time to do it! I'm going to be a very, very busy man!"
: "I should thank you, <player>! For giving me the brilliant hint that sparked this whole idea!"
: "Come, Bronzong! Let's go!"
: "First things first! Bronzong and I are going to have to perform some deep self-analysis!"
;Sync Pair Story - Chikorita's Evolution
* Before battle
: "Bzweeeep! My data-interpreting machine is telling me that your is ready to evolve!"
: "I'm curious about her Evolution, and I'm wondering how strong you'll become, . OK, continuing analysis!"
: "I've already used my data-interpreting machine on you. I have a good idea of how strong you are."
: "Well then, let's get this battle started!"
* After being defeated
: "Wow! You guys are as strong as the rumors say!"
: "My data-interpreting machine is good to go! I'm ready to analyze Chikorita once she evolves!"
;Pokémon Center
* During sync background preview (Variety)
: "Bzweeeeep! Let's see what I can see about you through my data-interpreting machine."
* Random conversation
: " is a fierce, robust Pokémon that can harness the power of electricity!"
: "If you touch Electivire while it's charged up with crackling electricity..."
: "you can actually lose consciousness for several moments. So make sure you don't EVER do that, OK?"
:* If spoken to again
:: "Electivire are incredibly rare to find in the wild, you know."
:: "If you ever manage to team up with one, you can be sure it will be a dependable partner."
* Random conversation
: "Grrr... Still at 47 percent? Slower than I expected."
: "Whoa! I was so focused, I didn't even see you there! "
: "I was trying to perform an update on my data-interpreting machine, see..."
: "But it's taking forever! The update's already been going for a hundred hours or so!"
:* If spoken to again
:: "This is just the mobile version of my data-interpreting machine, but it's got amazing functionality!"
:: "I'll tell you all about what this baby can do next time."
:: "If we open that can of worms now, it'll be midnight before I can explain all of its awesome features."
* Random conversation
: " can call down the rain, so people in ancient times used to think they were deities."
: "In fact, some people still worship them as rain bringers today, if you can believe that."
: "I don't really buy into that, though. The only results I believe in are the ones I can prove numerically."
: "Besides, if it suddenly started raining indoors, all of my machines would break."
:* If spoken to again
:: "Did you know that many Pokémon feel naturally energized by the rain?"
:: "For that reason, a lot of Pokémon feel thankful toward Bronzong, too."
* Random conversation
: "You look like you're itching to know more about me!"
: "In other words, you'd like to interpret my data. Is that correct? If so, feel free!"
: "Let's see. Um... Male, teenager... No, that's not the sort of data you want, is it?"
: "If you want to learn more about me, you'll need to collect some data. Spending time with me is the best way to do that."
: "It just so happens that I'm interested in collecting some data on you as well. Nice timing!"
:* If spoken to again
:: "There are plenty of things out there that you can't understand with just a calculator."
:: "The more you learn about the world, the more you'll find things about it that interest you."
* Random conversation
: "Do you think my hairstyle is weird?"
: "I'm really specific about how I do it, but it doesn't take long at all."
: "That could be because I use my invention the Auto-Hairstyle-O-Matic to analyze my hair type."
: "Want to try it out, <player>? My invention can turn any hairstyle into one that's just like mine."
:* If spoken to again
:: "My Auto-Hairstyle-O-Matic doesn't work on bald people."
:: "Just keep that in mind."
* Random conversation
: "Whoa! Hey, you! You came at just the right time!"
: "I've been wanting to do some analysis on you. Give me your data!"
: "Don't worry—I don't need you to do anything super specific. I just need to look at you through my machine!"
:* If spoken to again
:: "Bzweeeeep! Oh, don't let the beeping concern you. I'm just interpreting some of your data."
:: "You and your Pokémon continue to exceed my calculations. What's the secret to your strength?"
:: "Hmm... I've just gotta know! I'm going to solve this mystery through my analysis. I promise!"
* Random conversation
: "If you collect lots of data and analyze your Pokémon battles, you can utilize that data moving forward!"
: "It's true! It's part of my job description as !"
: "Pokémon get disappointed when they lose battles, too. That's why you've got to formulate new strategies!"
: "So that you can learn from your mistakes! And so next time, you can win! And things will go exactly as planned!"
:* If spoken to again
:: "I always get tons of great data when I battle against you."
:: "It'll all be put to good use when I go back to the !"
:: "Although I might as well collect as much data as I can while I'm here..."
:: "The more knowledge I can amass, the more helpful I can be to you in a battle."
:: "AND I can keep getting stronger in the meantime! Perfect logic, just as I calculated!"

: "I did a round of analysis on it, and it seemed right up your alley!"
:* After giving out item
:: "Collecting data and performing analyses are important for all things in life."
:: "They are the key to obtaining greater knowledge and experience."
* Special Type Team-Up Daily Type Rotation event conversation with and
