## Professor Willow dialogue

1st Part

* Oh, **TRAINER**! Great to see you.
* Your timing is impeccable. Because you know what? I’ve had enough!
* That’s right—I’ve had enough of waiting to see a guardian deity. Everyone but me has managed to glimpse one out of pure serendipity, so I’ve decided to be proactive and embark on a search for Tapu Fini!
* Do you think you could lend me a hand? With you involved, I think my chance of success will skyrocket.
* Tapu Fini is the guardian deity of Poni Island in the Alola region.
* Terrible calamities sometimes befall those who recklessly approach Tapu Fini, so I’m going to think very carefully about how we can successfully—and safely—track it down.
* In the meantime, can you see what Team GO Rocket is up to? I’d like to avoid any complications in our search.

2nd Part

* Welcome back, **TRAINER**!
* I’ve been busy researching Tapu Fini. My sources say that it can manipulate water, and it lives deep within a thick fog.
* With that in mind, I’d hazard a guess that we’ll have the most luck uncovering Tapu Fini’s whereabouts if we look in places where other Water-type Pokémon are appearing.
* I’ll start by visiting every foggy lake I can find. I can hear Blanche’s water safety spiel already...
* But, personally speaking, a bit of risk is worth it if I finally get to see an island guardian with my own eyes! You remember to be careful, too, okay?
* Now, let’s get back out there!

3rd Part

* **TRAINER**! Can you believe it?!
* I was knee-deep in the last lake I thought to check—shoes soggy, Dewpider on all sides—when I finally, FINALLY, saw Tapu Fini!
* I’d love to tell you more about it, but I need to scribble down all the details in my journal while they’re fresh in my mind.
* You should head out and see if you can catch a glimpse of Tapu Fini yourself!

4th Part

* Phew! Welcome back, **TRAINER**. How’d you fare?
* You saw Tapu Fini as well?! That’s fantastic!
* Now you’ve seen all four of Alola’s guardian deities. And I’ve seen...all of one.
* That’s... Well, it’s one more than I’d seen before, isn’t it!
* Just have to stay positive. No use feeling jealous of others’ good fortune...
* Now that we know all the island guardians are nearby, we should look into why they’ve appeared here.
* Were the cause some unsavory act on our part, I think they would have confronted us directly by now—but instead, we’ve been the ones tracking them down.
* It’s certainly possible their motives have nothing to do with us. Though I have to assume they’re investigating the area for a reason.
* But what could that reason be? I suppose all we can do for now is wait and see what happens.
