May beat me in a battle when I was about to awaken Kyogre. I still did it. It doesn't always mean what you want it to mean, and it would just put his Pokémon through suffering when there's no centres around to fix 'em up.
Would he let you? An' what would be the point of gettin' 'em battle ready again?
[LOOK he's struggling with it too he's just. .. trying to be pragmatic.]
The people that are here can do somethin'. This won't be down to just one person to fix-- it's technically down to Lance and Steven, if ya wanna get into League rules. But remember that, yeah? We got two champs here.
Well, I'd hope here they don't really have anythin' to distract 'em with. 'Sides, I'm not scared of him-- someone that blusters like that, even if they're strong, usually just got some unresolved issue they're dealin' with.

I'd like that if it was the case, but... Talking to him didn't work.
[what else is there but pokemon battles and pacifistic talking?]

[he rubs his chin.]
It just won't be a quick change, is all.

There may not be Centers, but I'm here...
[But she doesn't want to put them through suffering, even if she does heal it.]
... I wish Red was here. He'd be able to do something, I'm sure...
[her red, obviously, not the one that is here.]

[She looks up at him, a bit confused, but.]
... Can they do anything? The only Champion I've ever seen do anything is Red. The rest seem...
[don't call people useless, yellow, don't. don't call them useless.]

[She doesn't want to call people useless. And Champions aren't all useless! Red's amazing!
... But uh. Lance. And Steven. Yeah.]
Unresolved issue... He seemed to get upset when I told him he must have been weak once.

[he rubs his beard.]
Whatever his problem is, just remember it's not on you, alright?
no subject
[But she fixes her ponytail, curling it up against her head so she can pull her hat back on.]
But... I'll still stop him if I have to.
