 Professor Willow dialogue
1st Part

* \*yawn\* Hello, **TRAINER**... You’ll have to forgive my appearance, I was up late last night studying some nearby Rowlet. For as sleepy as they can be during the day, they sure perk right up at night!
* Maybe it’d help me relax if I had a soft, cute Pokémon to hug... Like Stufful!
* Stufful has an adorable appearance, but it hates to be hugged or touched in any way. Which is a shame because I’ve heard its fur is a delight to pet!
* I wonder if I’ll ever get the chance to snuggle one—for science, of course! Maybe you could bring me a Stufful, **TRAINER**? Just to look at!

2nd Part

* **TRAINER**, you’re back! And you’ve brought a Stufful with you! It looks so soft and fluffy...
* Er-hem! Despite their looks, Stufful are incredibly dangerous Pokémon. A touch from anyone except a known friend sends Stufful into a surging frenzy!
* For both our sakes, maybe we’d better befriend it before we try to cuddle—I mean, continue our research, don’t you think? Why not try feeding Stufful a Berry or two, **TRAINER**. Perhaps we can get closer to it that way.

3rd Part

* Your Stufful seems friendlier already, **TRAINER**! Speaking of friendly, have you heard that its Evolution—Bewear—has the habit of hugging its companions?
* Once Bewear accepts you as a friend, it tries to show its affection with a hug. But letting it do that is dangerous—it could easily shatter your bones!
* Many Trainers have left this world after their spines were squashed by its hug...
* While I don’t recommend you go hugging a Bewear anytime soon, there isn’t any harm in trying to meet one! Why don’t you evolve Stufful, **TRAINER**?

4th Part

* What a strong-looking Bewear you’ve come back with, **TRAINER**!
* What’s that? You say I look a bit more frazzled than usual? Well...I may have tried to pet Stufful while you were away, and its flailing sent me flying so far someone could’ve mistaken me for a bird Pokémon. Haha—ow...
* On the bright side, I did get to both pet Stufful and experience its strength firsthand! Come to think of it, I have a colleague studying Pokémon moves who’d love to hear all about this...
* I hope you’ve had more luck bonding with your new Stufful and Bewear companions, **TRAINER**. I think I’m going to bow out and grab an ice pack...or six. Thanks for all your help today! Take care, I’ll be in touch!
