Sticks and Stones

Hah! I was told that a few Trainers were in a tussle with Team Break, so I came to have a look... Turns out it's just you amateurs!

Oh? So you remember me, then! Yes, it is I, Lear! Owner and creator of this magnificent island you all stand on!

You must be joking, right? That is ridiculous! No one forgets me, Lear, owner of Pasio!

So you're Lear, huh? Your reputation precedes you...and not in a good way. To be honest, people don't speak very positively of you.

Tell me, what's the real reason you're here? I'd hate to think that you're the one behind all of this misconduct.

Hah! Don't be ridiculous! Me? Promote this foolishness on my own island?! The mere thought is insulting!

The reason I came here in the first place was to bring judgment on these thugs!

Got it? Now stay out of my way. Go crawl into a corner with your pathetic team and leave this to a real Pokémon master!

That guy said his name is Lear, right? You know, I'm sure he must be rich and powerful and all, but that was just plain rude!

You're not just gonna let him get away with that attitude, right, Scottie?!

We should go and show that snooty Lear that this team is anything but pathetic!

Calm down a moment, Iris.

Try not to let yourself get so worked up. You'll only tire yourself out.

But aren't you upset that he called your team pathetic, Mr. Pryce?

Sticks and stones, Iris. Words can't hurt you if you don't let them. A Trainer should always be calm and disciplined.

Yeah, I think I know what you mean. Working together as a team is probably a lot harder if you're all worked up and angry.

Indeed... It sounds like young Iris here is already much wiser about these things than our haughty friend, Lear.

Come! I think perhaps it's time to show him exactly what this team is capable of!
