 Professor Willow dialogue
1st Part

* Ahhh... Do you smell that, Trainer?
* I first caught a whiff of that curious aroma as I was out on my daily morning walk.
* Upon investigation, I discovered that the scent was being produced by an uncommonly large group of Roselia that had assembled nearby.
* Did you know you can judge a Roselia’s health by the strength of its aroma? Well, let me tell you—those were VERY healthy Roselia!
* But while they certainly smell nice and look pretty, I advise you to take care when encountering them.
* The thorns on Roselia’s head contain a vicious poison, and it can launch them at any opponent bold enough to try to steal the flowers on its arms. Every rose, as they say!
* It’s unusual to see so many Roselia in one place. Would you mind assisting me in researching this phenomenon?

2nd Part

* Welcome back, **TRAINER**!
* While you were out in the field, I did some reading on Roselia.
* When it comes to Pokémon, new discoveries are being made all the time—so it’s important to make sure your information is up to date.
* Roselia, the Thorn Pokémon, evolves from Budew, the Bud Pokémon. Budew is sensitive to changes in temperature, and its bud is said to bloom when warmed by the sun.
* It’s also both Grass and Poison type, much like Roselia.
* In reviewing these two Pokémon, I remembered something tremendously exciting! I still need to conduct a bit more research before sharing my findings, however. Would you mind assisting me?

3rd Part

* As aromatic Pokémon go, we’re pretty fortunate it’s Roselia appearing en masse and not, say, Muk.
* A big group of Muk gathered under the sun... The whole place would smell like baked garbage!
* Oh! Hey there, **TRAINER**. Didn’t realize you were back.
* I found that interesting bit of information I wanted to share with you.
* According to my research, Roselia that drink nutritionally rich springwater are said to reveal rare coloration when they bloom.
* Isn’t that fascinating? Have you seen anything like that while you’ve been out doing research?
* You seem to have a lucky streak, so I wouldn’t put it past you!
* Now that you’re back, I’d like you to evolve a Roselia with the Sinnoh Stone I gave you.
* I’m excited to see the final Evolution in this line of Grass- and Poison-type Pokémon!

4th Part

* Great work, Trainer! Your Roselia has evolved into the Bouquet Pokémon, Roserade!
* It moves like a dancer and strikes with whips that are densely lined with poison thorns.
* Oh, and have you noticed that each of Roserade’s hands is a different color?
* Each contains a different toxin. The poison in its right hand is quick acting, while the poison in its left hand is slow acting.
* What an amazing Pokémon!
* Thanks for all your assistance today, Trainer. Documenting situations like this is essential to learning more about the Pokémon in the world around us.
* Until next time, let’s GO!
