Koga

Hmm. It seems Valerie's reputation precedes her.

Erika

Indeed. Valerie's designs are extremely popular with lots of people.

Clair

Hmm... By the way, how much would one outfit cost?

Erika

Hmm... Well, from what I've heard from other Trainers from Kalos...

a single outfit could cost more than 500 Big Pearls.

Clair

M-more than 500 Big Pearls?!

Koga

I see... I was thinking of getting an outfit for my daughter, but...if they cost that much...

Valerie

It's not the price that matters. It's how good it looks on the wearer that's important.

Clair

The wearer?

Valerie

That's right. Clair, Koga, your outfits really match the two of you well.

The two of you have such a charming style. I'm sure even your clothes are happy to be worn by you two.

Koga

I...I see!

Clair

I knew you'd understand! We have the same sensibilities.

Hmm, all right! I've made up my mind! Since you've complimented me so kindly, I will grant you my company all day long!

If there's anything you'd like to do, just let me know.

Valerie

Something I'd like to do?

Koga

Anything is fine, from being shown around town to having a Pokémon battle. Anything you want.

Valerie

That sure would be a big help.

In that case...

I'd like to become a Pokémon.

Clair

Huh?

Koga

You...want to be a...Pokémon?

Valerie

Well, I mean exactly what I said. I'd like to be a Pokémon.

Really? Oh, I'm so happy to hear that, Scottie.

My fashion designs are all about that feeling of becoming a Pokémon.

After receiving a sync stone, I thought I'd be able to...

... ... ...

Clair

Hm? What is it?

Valerie

Oh! I'm sorry. I was caught up in the beauty of my sync stone for a moment.

And...well...

Sorry. I completely forgot what we were talking about before.

Erika

You were talking about how you thought you'd use a sync stone to become a Pokémon.

Valerie

Ah, that's right. So, what do you think? Would it be possible?

Koga

Hmm. So you weren't speaking metaphorically. I think you might've heard some bad information.

...I'm sorry, Valerie, but you can't become a Pokémon by using a sync stone.

Valerie

What? Really?

Oh, goodness. What a pity...

Erika

Please don't be upset, Valerie.

Clair

Isn't there anything else you'd like to do while you're on Pasio?

Valerie

Hmm. Let me think for a minute...

Oh! Well, there is someone I want to meet.

Erika

Someone you want to meet?

???

Valerie! I finally found you!

Lass

P-please! I don't have much money, but...

We want a robe, No, please make a dress for Elesa!

Valerie

Elesa?

Lass

Yes. Just the thought of Elesa walking down the shining runway in the Nimbasa City Gym in one of your dresses is spellbinding...

I've made up my mind! I have to have you make it!

If you lose in a Pokémon battle, you have to make it for me, OK?!
