Nanu

Whew, you got us good.

You said you're Scottie, right? You sure are something.

Seeing how strong you are, I'm guessing you've had your fair share of run-ins with Team Break?

You didn't even hesitate to answer, did ya? I appreciate that.

Sounds like I was on target.

I may not be a zippy young Trainer like you anymore, but I still train hard to get stronger.

What would you say to having somebody like me on your team, kid?

You might be a little too earnest for your own good... But I appreciate it.

Don't worry. I might prefer Dark types, but I'm a good guy.

Guess that's that, then. What about you, Grimsley?

Grimsley

I think I'll pass for now.

There's only room for one wild card in any good deck.

Nanu

Is that right.

Well, guess it'll just be me, then. Looking forward to working with you kids.

Grimsley

Guess this is the end of the road for our little team.

Nanu

And it was me who bugged you about teaming up in the first place, wasn't it? Sorry about that.

Grimsley

It's fine. All par for the course... Game aficionados like myself are used to diving into competitions on a whim.

Besides, I think I know what your true aim is here, anyway.

Nanu

It's a pain in the neck, but I can't let this slide.

I know there's something lurking beneath the surface with that Team Break gang.

I can't nap in peace until I find out what that something is.

Grimsley

You think the kid's the best way to get to the bottom of it, huh?

I'll admit, Scottie does have a way of drawing out the passion in others. A born leader.

I mean, [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="he" F="she" ]'d have to be if [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="he" F="she" ] managed to impassion a jaded guy like me.

That's reason enough to make [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="him" F="her" ] a target... So you decided to follow along to protect [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="him" F="her" ] and [EN:Gen Ref="255" M="his" F="her" ] team. That's what this is all about?

Nanu

... ... ...

Heh, you can think what you want.

Grimsley

Well, why don't you just do what you want and let me do the same.

Who knows? The next time we meet, we might be fighting on opposing teams.

Nanu

Cut me some slack here. I wouldn't stand a chance against you.

But if you're gonna find yourself another teammate, you might want somebody that uses a different type Pokémon than you.

Grimsley

Hmph. I still can't tell what's going on in that head of yours.

I think it's time I took my leave...

Nanu

Oh, before you go, I forgot to tell you.

Grimsley

What is it?

Nanu

Come visit Alola sometime.

Let's get some Sushi High Roller. My treat.

Grimsley

I'll think about it, old man.
