;
* Before battle
:"Well, well. You're quite the adorable , but you've also got a spine. Ahaha! I'm Bertha. I have a preference for Pokémon. Well, would you show this old lady how much you've learned?"
* When last Pokémon is at critical health
:"Dear child, don't assume for an instant that you've won."
* Upon being defeated
:"Well! Dear child, I must say, that was most impressive. Your Pokémon believed in you and did their best to earn you the win. Even though I've lost, I find myself with this silly grin!"
* After being defeated
:"You're quite something, youngster. I like how you and your Pokémon earned the win by working as one. That's what makes you so strong. Ahahaha! I think that you can go as far as you want."
* If talked to after being defeated
:"The Trainer in the next room is a much more formidable opponent. You really must have your wits about you. However, I think you can go as far as you desire. Ahahaha!"

*First rematch
:* Before battle
::"Well, well. I see you've returned, dear child. It looks as though you've grown more confident since the last time we've met. But don't forget—with age comes the power to shake the earth, and a force of will that can split the ground beneath your feet! Ahahaha! Let this old lady show you what a little life experience can do."
:* Upon sending out last Pokémon
::"Ahahaha! Victory may be in sight, but take care not to lose your footing!"
:* Upon being defeated
::"That was quite something. Your youth gives you a confidence in battle that can't be shaken."
:* After being defeated
::"No matter how the world shifts, you and your Pokémon will always be sure-footed. You're steadier today than all the days before!"
:* If talked to after being defeated
::"Ahahaha! Now continue to go as far as you want!"
*Second rematch onward
:* Before battle
::"Oh, if it isn't <player>! You sure look different from last time we've met. Why, now you hold yourself just like an adult. You remind me of when I was young... Ahahaha! But I know you're not here to hear an old lady's ramblings. Let's let the battle do the talking. "
:* Upon sending out last Pokémon
::"Ahahaha! Victory may be in sight, but take care not to lose your footing!"
:* Upon being defeated
::"I'm very impressed. Your strength shook me like a tremor from the earth itself."
:* After being defeated
::"Now then, let me leave you with a last little bit of advice.... Even if you find yourself losing someday, and even if your feelings are crushed, remember to remain as strong as the earth beneath your feet."
:* If talked to after being defeated
::"Ahahaha! I look forward to seeing just how far you go!"

: "Ah, Hippowdon. Now she's blasting sand and trying to create a twister."
:: Wha—? A twister?!: "Oh, dear child, it's nothing to be afraid of."
:: Wow, cool!: "Ahaha! Thank you! Wait a moment—Hippowdon!"
: "Now, now! Where were you trying to sneak off to?"
: "Oh, this Hippowdon. She's just brimming with curiosity, and she's quite a handful. I can't take my eyes off her for a second. "
: "Oh, stop! This isn't a game of tag, you know!"
: "I'm trying to have a nice conversation with <player> here!"
: "This little girl, I swear..."
: "Ahaha! I've got you!"
: "I think she's finally gotten her fill of play for now. I'm so sorry for all the commotion."
: "Whew! That was some good exercise!"
:: It's like you're her mom.: "Ahaha! Thank you!"
:: It's like she's your child.: "Ahaha! She really is a cutie, isn't she?"
: "I'm very happy to hear that we look like a family!"
: "Because I do think of my partner Pokémon as a dear child of mine..."
: "Actually, this Hippowdon used to be too wild and rough. She lived alone, not part of any herd."
: "Perhaps she thought that because she was stronger than all the others, she could live just fine on her own."
:: Do you think she was lonely?: "Her mind is as strong as her body, so it probably didn't occur to her to feel lonely. Still, it seemed like such a waste."
:: That sounds tough.: "Yes, living all alone can be a sad, difficult thing."
: "As soon as I encountered this girl, I realized she could have become so much stronger if she had played and practiced with her herd."
: "She kept threatening me with her huge mouth, trying to scare me away, but...I wanted to show her that she's not alone."
: "And little by little, we grew closer."
:: Weren't you scared?: "No, I was never scared."
:: "I believed in this Hippowdon—that while she may try to startle people, she'd never hurt anyone."
:: So you never gave up.: "I realized that deep down, she really was lonely, so I couldn't just leave her on her own."
: "The more you put your trust in someone, the more they can trust you as well."
: "I made up my mind to keep believing in Hippowdon until she believed in me, too."
: "Now the only time she bares her teeth at me is when I'm brushing them."
: "Ahaha! We really do have a bond like a parent and child!"
: "And I think that's a wonderful thing!"
;Pokémon Center
* During sync background preview
: "Well, well. You're quite the adorable Trainer, but you've also got a spine."
* Random conversation
: "Pokémon are like our family, and we Trainers are like the parents and children of our partner Pokémon."

: "That bond between us is what makes us strong... That's what it means to be a sync pair."
* Random conversation

: "You can at least avoid losing due to your own slip-ups or lack of foresight."
* Random conversation
: "A vast space called the Underground lies beneath the Sinnoh region."
: "If you like exploring, I highly recommend it. You can find rare fossils and other things down there."

* Random conversation
: "Trainers and Pokémon may not understand each other's speech, but they can definitely come to understand each other's hearts and minds."

: "You might even say that battles are the testing grounds for the bonds between Trainers and their partner Pokémon."
* Random conversation

: "I'm sure you'll become a strong sync pair."

: "I count myself truly lucky to have met you."
:* If spoken to again
:: "Whenever I'm in a sticky spot in battle, I picture your face, dear child."
:: "Thinking of you trying your best always gives me a boost of courage."
:: "Not only that...this old lady isn't quite ready to acknowledge that you've surpassed her!"
* Random conversation
: "To you, I'm an old lady."
: "But still, you approach me as an equal and come at me with everything you've got."
: "That makes me incredibly happy. I can't thank you enough!"
:* If spoken to again
