## Professor Willow dialogue

1st Part

* Welcome back, **TRAINER**! Isn’t it lovely out?
* There are Litten lying in the sun, Rowlet relaxing in the trees, Popplio playing in the water—and these malasadas Spark dropped off sure are delicious!
* It seems even the flowers smell sweeter today!
* Why don’t you go out and see what Pokémon are around, **TRAINER**? Maybe we’ll find something new to research!
* I think I’ll sit this one out. Taking breaks is important!

2nd Part

* Ah, you’re back already, **TRAINER**—and with some new Pokémon in tow! Well done.
* While you were gone, I noticed there’s something sparkling in the air today. Perhaps it’s a result of my radiant personality, eh, **TRAINER**?
* Haha! Seriously though, it’s something I’m looking into.
* For now, let’s have a look at the Pokémon you’ve caught.
* Hmm, how curious. You appear to have caught several Pokémon that are often found on Alola’s Akala Island.
* Akala Island has some amazing geographical features that make it a suitable habitat for a wide range of Pokémon.
* There’s Brooklet Hill, a fantastic fishing spot with a series of cascading waterfalls. And Lush Jungle, where trees grow densely together, as well as Wela Volcano Park—which, as you may have guessed, is a volcano!
* How about keeping an eye out for Fire-, Water-, and Grass-type Pokémon while you’re out, **TRAINER**? If my hunch is correct, you may run into more Pokémon often seen about Akala Island.

3rd Part

* Well done, **TRAINER**! That’s quite an assortment of Pokémon you’ve encountered.
* I wish I’d been out there with you, but I wasn’t sitting idly by! I think I may have discovered why the air seems to be sparkling today.
* You see, Blanche just reported witnessing a mysterious pink Pokémon behind a flower bush.
* Based on its description, I believe Blanche may have seen Tapu Lele, the guardian deity of Akala Island.
* The fragrant aroma of flowers is the source of Tapu Lele’s energy. Perhaps that has something to do with why the flowers smell so sweet today.
* Spark and Blanche have both seen guardian deities now... Hmm. While I chew on that, let’s get out and look for Tapu Lele, **TRAINER**!

4th Part

* Whew! That was a good walk. I just got back myself, **TRAINER**.
* I wasn’t able to find Tapu Lele, but I did manage to get a closer look at some of the sparkles I’ve been seeing in the air.
* They appear to be the glowing scales Tapu Lele is known to scatter. Touching them is said to restore good health on the spot.
* How did you fare during your investigation, **TRAINER**?
	+ gasp\* You saw Tapu Lele?! That’s incredible!
* So, we’ve been visited by two of Alola’s guardian deities now... What could they be here for, I wonder?
* Tapu Lele is said to be guilelessly cruel, so I do hope we’re staying on its good side.
* If I could just meet one of the guardian deities myself, it would help me form a solid hypothesis as to why they’re appearing...
* But that’s for me to ponder. Don’t trouble yourself with it—go out and enjoy the day! I’ll be in touch soon. Let’s GO!
