Ilima/Quotes

These are Ilima's quotes in the Pokémon games.

In the core series

Pokémon Sun and Moon

Trainers' School: "Greetings! Captain Ilima here."; "I couldn't help but observe your battles. You looked so very delightful in battle that I had no choice but to summon you here."; "I see! Then welcome, newcomer. I look forward to seeing the brilliance of your moves in my trial."; "Indeed! We captains are the ones who conduct the trials you will face on your way to challenging the island kahuna."; "My trial is held in Verdant Cavern. The trial of Captain Ilima."; "You can find Pokémon living everywhere, even in the patches of tall grass in Hau'oli City. Perhaps you'll want to fill out your team a bit before attempting my trial?"; "I sincerely look forward to your challenge."

"Greetings. It's me, Captain Ilima."

"Oh! You, from the Trainers' School! Already made your way to Hau'oli, hmm?"

"Oh my... How terrifying..."

"Only thieves steal people's Pokémon. I won't stand for it. <player>, wasn't it? I'll ask you to take care of that one. I'll get rid of this one."

"Again? Oh my... How terrifying..."

"My thanks to you and your Pokémon. Why don't I heal your team to express my gratitude?"

"I must admit, I've been wondering about you since I saw you at the Trainers' School... Professor Kukui brought you along, and you and your Pokémon seemed to defeat our teacher so effortlessly! Very well then! Allow me to see if you're ready for my trial!"

No: "Well then! I'll wait until you are ready to take me on."

Yes: "Behold the magnificent Pokémon of the one and only Captain Ilima!"

Upon being defeated

"Yes! You have emerged victorious!"

After being defeated

"You—or should I say you and your Pokémon—make quite the interesting team!"

"I do hope you'll come to Verdant Cavern and attempt the trial—the trial of Ilima! You can get there from Route 2... That Rotom Dex of yours will show you the way."

"I bid you Alola!"

Route 2

"Greetings. Captain Ilima here."

"And my trial..."

"begins mere steps from here in Verdant Cavern!"

"Note that the Pokémon living within Verdant Cavern are quite fierce. I wouldn't venture in unless you've prepared some Potions and so forth. Through attempting the trials during the island challenge, one can exceed his or her own limits. ...That is what the Alolan people believe."

"Once you enter Verdant Cavern, you will not be able to leave until you have completed the trial. Are you prepared for the trial?"

No: "Please make your preparations. I'll be waiting for you!"

Yes: "I'll be waiting for you!"

Verdant Cavern: "Let me formally welcome you to Verdant Cavern! I am your captain, Ilima. Allow me to explain the basics of my trial."; "What you should attempt to do is..."; "Defeat three of the Pokémon that lurk here in their dens!"; "Then reach the pedestal deep within the cave... and collect the Z-Crystal there! You'll need to be completely in sync with your Pokémon to succeed."; "Oh dear! And there's one more thing I forgot to mention."; "Many strong Pokémon make their home in this cave, but one stronger and more fearsome than all the rest, known as a Totem Pokémon, also resides here! It will be the greatest obstacle you face as you attempt to clear my trial!"; "By the way, until you clear the trial, you will not be able to catch Pokémon in Verdant Cavern."; "This is but one of the seven trials you will face during your island challenge."; "And it begins now! The trial of Captain Ilima!"

If talked to again

"Yes, <player>? Would you like to give up so you can better prepare for my trial? Keep in mind you'll have to start from the beginning if you give up now, though!"

Yes: "I see. Unfortunately, I'll have to ask you to go make whatever preparations you may need to and then come back to try again."

No: "Good! Then go and defeat the three Pokémon. Only then will you be able to claim the Z-Crystal waiting in the final chamber of the cave!"

If the player restarted the trial

"Yes, <player>? I take it you would like to attempt my trial again?"

Yes: "Very well, let the trial begin!"

No: "I see. Unfortunately, I'll have to ask you to go make whatever preparations you may need to and then come back to try again."

After defeating Totem Gumshoos^S/Raticate^M

"What an incredible Trainer you are!"

"For you to be able to defeat the Totem Pokémon that I had trained up to such a powerful state... I don't know what I can say!"

"Working in harmony with your Pokémon, you have cleared the trial of Ilima! You're a phenomenal Trainer! Congratulations, <player>! The Z-Crystal from the pedestal is yours now!"

"What you have just received is the Normal Z-Crystal! It is known as Normalium Z! Now if you let a Pokémon that can use a Normal-type move hold that..."

"and strike an elegant pose like this one... then you will be able to strengthen a Normal-type move by unleashing Z-Power!"

"Moving right along..."

"Ah, yes. First, there is one thing I forgot to mention."

"The Totem Pokémon! In every locale where a captain holds his or her trials, you will encounter a particularly strong Pokémon, like Gumshoos^S/Raticate^M just now. And during battles against such Pokémon, they may summon allies to shore up their offense. It's not a tactic often seen in other regions. Perhaps Pokémon in Alola are simply more inclined to help one another?"

"Since you have managed to defeat the Totem Pokémon and proved yourself, you can now try to catch any of the Pokémon you find here in this cave. In fact, have some Great Balls."

"And here, let me see to your Pokémon after all of their hard work in there!"

"If we're done here, I have something interesting I'd like to show you. Come with me to Route 3."

Route 2: "Greetings. Captain Ilima here. As you travel around the islands of Alola, you will find captains' barricades here and there. These barricades help mark areas where particularly strong Pokémon can be found. Anyone can pass through them, of course, if they are escorted by a strong Trainer. Those attempting the island challenge can pass the barricades, as long as they clear the trials. Are you ready? Then behold the power of a captain!"; "Voila! Your world just got a little bigger."; "I am the only captain here on Melemele Island, meaning my trial is the only one here."; "Now that you have cleared the trial, please inform our island kahuna, Hala!"; "Oh, so is that why you've been looking so ragged, Professor?"; "I can go and have a look around the cave for you, in case she wandered that way."

Iki Town: "Congratulations, <player>. I hope you find your Ride Pager useful. I worked on developing it with a friend of mine."; "Aren't Z-Powers lovely?"/"I'm amazed that you won without even using your Z-Power."; "Let's have a Pokémon battle when next we meet!"; "Very well then, off on your island challenge you go! May the future bring you happiness!"

Hau'oli City Shopping District

"Thank you for coming, <player>."

"And you've arrived with such exquisite timing! I've been conducting research on battle planning for quite some time, and at last my simulation is complete!"

"Would you be so kind as to test it with me, <player>?"

Not now: "What a shame. Please do let me know when you are available."

Sure: "You have my gratitude. Very well then. To the Trainers' School!"

Trainers' School: "Before we begin, allow me to explain... It's not battle results that interest me. Rather, it's the carefully-thought-out strategies or novel tactics employed by Trainers. How those plans affect one's opponent and influence the outcome of battles—that is where my interest lies!"; "Now give me everything you've got, <player>!"

Upon being defeated

"Yes! It seems that you are once more victorious!"

After being defeated

"Wonderful! What a truly wonderful battle! I'll be feeling the aftershocks from that battle for a long time to come. That was the best I could've hoped for!"

"Thank you. Allow me to treat you to some tea and snacks back in my room."

Hau'oli City Shopping District: "Will you be on your way then? Allow me to offer you this as payment for your assistance."; "When a Pokémon holds an Everstone, it will not evolve. It has other effects as well, but let's set those aside for now. May our friendship last as long as an Everstone!"

If talked to again

"I think I'll begin analyzing our battle data. There are so many amazing discoveries yet to be made! Someday I hope to share them with everyone!"

Hau'oli City Shopping District

Outside the Pokémon Center

"Greetings. Captain Ilima here."

"So you've spotted me sticking up one of these lovely stickers, have you?"

"Oh yes! If young trial-goers collect these stickers as they travel and follow the path they indicate, they will quite naturally progress along their island challenge! Really, if I had to describe them, I would say these stickers really save trial-goers like you."

"But I cannot let my guard down...Those Team Skull thugs have far too much time on their hands, and they're always trying to get in the way of Trainers on their island challenge. I have to keep an eye on them to be sure they don't take down my stickers."

"I've actually just had a report that Team Skull was seen making trouble around town. I suppose I should go have a look. Well then, young <player>. I hope you'll have a delightful time running about to search out and collect Totem Stickers!"

After defeating Team Skull

"What a lovely battle you showed us there, against Team Skull. My thanks to you and your Pokémon. Why don't I heal your team to express my gratitude?"

"I must admit, I've been wondering about you since I saw you at the Trainers' School... Professor Kukui brought you along, and you and your Pokémon seemed to defeat our teacher so effortlessly! Very well then! Allow me to see if you're ready for my trial!"

No: "Well then! I'll wait until you are ready to take me on."

Yes: "Behold the magnificent Pokémon of the one and only Captain Ilima!"

Upon being defeated

"Yes! You have emerged victorious!"

After being defeated

"You—or should I say you and your Pokémon— make quite the interesting team!"

"I do hope you'll come to Verdant Cavern and attempt the trial—the trial of Ilima! You can get there from Route 2... That Rotom Dex of yours will show you the way."

"I bid you Alola!"

Route 2

"Greetings. Captain Ilima here."

"And my trial..."

"begins mere steps from here in Verdant Cavern!"

"Note that the Pokémon living within Verdant Cavern are quite fierce. I wouldn't venture in unless you've prepared some Potions and so forth. Through attempting the trials during the island challenge, one can exceed his or her own limits. ...That is what the Alolan people believe."

"Once you enter Verdant Cavern, you will not be able to leave until you have completed the trial. Are you prepared for the trial?"

No: "Please make your preparations. I'll be waiting for you!"

Yes: "I'll be waiting for you!"

Verdant Cavern: "Let me formally welcome you to Verdant Cavern! I am your captain, Ilima. Allow me to explain the basics of my trial."; "What you should attempt to do is..."; "Defeat three of the Pokémon that lurk here in their dens!"; "Then reach the pedestal deep within the cave... and collect the Z-Crystal there! You'll need to be completely in sync with your Pokémon to succeed."; "Oh dear! And there's one more thing I forgot to mention."; "Many strong Pokémon make their home in this cave, but one stronger and more fearsome than all the rest, known as a Totem Pokémon, also resides here! It will be the greatest obstacle you face as you attempt to clear my trial!"; "By the way, until you clear the trial, you will not be able to catch Pokémon in Verdant Cavern."; "This is but one of the eight trials you will face during your island challenge."; "And it begins now! The trial of Captain Ilima!"

If talked to again

"Not sure what to do? It's quite simple. Defeat the three Pokémon, reach the pedestal at the back of the cave, and get the Z-Crystal."

If the player tries to leave

"Yes, <player>? Would you like to give up so you can better prepare for my trial? Keep in mind you'll have to start from the beginning if you leave the cave now, though!"

Yes: "I see. Unfortunately, I'll have to ask you to go make whatever preparations you may need to and then come back to try again."

No: "Good! Then go and defeat the three Pokémon. Only then will you be able to claim the Z-Crystal waiting in the final chamber of the cave!"

If the player gave up or was defeated by one of the three Pokémon

"Yes, <player>? I take it you would like to attempt my trial again?"

Yes: "Good! Then go and defeat the three Pokémon. Only then will you be able to claim the Z-Crystal waiting in the final chamber of the cave! Very well, let the trial begin!"

No: "I see. Unfortunately, I'll have to ask you to go make whatever preparations you may need to and then come back to try again."

If the player restarted the trial after being defeated by Totem Gumshoos^US/Raticate^UM

"The Totem Gumshoos^US/Raticate^UM is a formidable opponent for any Trainer to take on. It is a Normal-type Pokémon, so perhaps you should battle back with Fighting-type Pokémon or moves!"

After defeating Totem Gumshoos^US/Raticate^UM

"What an incredible Trainer you are!"

"For you to be able to defeat the Totem Pokémon that I had trained up to such a powerful state... I don't know what I can say!"

"Working in harmony with your Pokémon, you have cleared the trial of Ilima! You're a phenomenal Trainer! Congratulations, <player>! The Z-Crystal from the pedestal is yours now!"

"What you have just received is the Normal Z-Crystal! It is known as Normalium Z! Now if you let a Pokémon that can use a Normal-type-move hold that..."

Iki Town: "Congratulations, <player>. Your performance has been a delight ever since I first laid eyes on you at the Trainers' School."; "Aren't Z-Powers lovely?"/"I'm amazed that you won without even using your Z-Power."; "Oh, I know! Why not stop by the Alola Photo Club for a commemorative photo? With Tauros, you can be down to Hau'oli City in no time at all."; "Very well then, off on your island challenge you go! May the future bring you happiness!"

Hau'oli City Shopping District Police Station

After defeating Olivia

"Hello there, <player>. How lucky that you would pass by."

"You see, it seems that I, Captain Ilima, have gotten mixed up in a mysterious incident. I’m in quite the pickle!"

"Upon returning from a family vacation, I found my guard Machamp passed out on the floor."

"What’s worse, even though I had hidden it carefully, deep in the back of my bookshelves.."

"My Nugget has vanished!"

"Of course, I have already found some suspects—these Hypno here."

"They were loitering around my home, so I went ahead and brought them in."

"As a captain, it does pain me to cast doubt on Pokemon, but..."

"Allow me to briefly introduce you."

"This Hypno is very skilled at using Hypnosis."

"And this one! During the time of the crime, it was using Nasty Plot..."

"Or at least I think that’s what it’s saying."

"The remaining Hypno seems to be able to use Psychic to move objects. It was levitating a Granbull doll not a moment ago."

"Well then, <player>. Which Hypno is guilty? Which move could have been used to steal my Nugget?"

After defeating Hypno

"You handled that well, <player>."

"I was able to deal with the other Hypno that were misbehaving."

"But to think, Hypno trying to shield one another from blame.."

"Captain magic!"

"Captain Ilima has solved the mystery!"

"Under the guidance of Nasty Plot, they used Hypnosis to put Machamp to sleep, and then used Psychic to steal my Nugget!"

"Indeed, the Pokedex from a distant land says that the arching movement and glitter of its pendulum lull its foes into a deep state of hypnosis."

"I imagine that a Nugget polished with so much care by Captain Ilima would be perfect as a weight for a pendulum."

"Very well! I will gladly give the Nugget to you, so long as you promise to share!"

"Now remember! This time I’m giving it to you as a gift, but don’t make this a habit!"

"Stealing other people’s possessions makes you a thief!"

"The case is solved, thanks to you! Please, as a token of my gratitude, take this Big Nugget I have also polished with care!"

"Now, let us head home!"

Hau'oli Cemetery

"Greetings. Captain Ilima here. It seems you've collected a great number of Z-Crystals, <player>. You are positively shining! Yes, it's important to always shine."

"You know, I've traveled the world since I was young with my mother. She's an actress on the stage, you see. In doing so, I came to realize something. I came to realize how beautiful my mother was when she dedicated herself completely to the role she was performing onstage...Yes, it is moving to see such complete dedication--to anything!"

"The brilliance of the Z-Crystals! The gleam of Totem Stickers! In my role as captain, I just want to do my part to make everyone shine!"

"But...let's set that all aside. You're here for Mina's trial? Then allow me to check just how strong you have become!"

Yes please!: "In a sense, this is a trial for me as well. A trial to see if the strategy I've thought up will work!"

No thanks!: "Understood. I'll take a bit more time to develop my own strategies as well."

Upon being defeated

"Yes! You have emerged victorious!"

After being defeated

"You-- No, you and your Pokémon have become quite a delightful team!"

"Please take this Orange Petal. It has a definite warmth to it, just like me."

"So now it seems you have two petals. Wouldn't you like to see what happens when you have collected all seven?"

"You know, Hau has been out on Mahalo Trail doing nothing but training and has improved a good deal!"

"For now, though... Should I see you to the next captain?"

Please do: "Shall we, then? To Lush Jungle! It's been awhile since I last visited Akala."

I'm good: "Please do let me know when you'd like to go to Lush Jungle."

Route 5: "Lush Jungle... Yes, I still remember the frightful shock of that special dish..."; "Well, I hope you have the stomach for what you will face here, <player>. Alola!"

Hau'oli City Shopping District

If talked to again after completing Mina's trial

"Yes, it’s me, Ilima."

"Congratulations once again on completing the trial, <player>."

"I have a favor I would like to ask of such a lovely trainer. You would be willing to help me out, right?"

"I would like you to go to the deepest part of Verdant Cavern instead of me, the captain, and place a piece of Normalium Z on the pedestal that is found there."

"And so...I give you this."

"I’m afraid I have to take the stage to fill a little role in my mother’s place."

"But there are many young trial-goers starting their island challenge now, inspired by your success, <player>!"

"Don’t let them down!"

After completing the task:

"Well, look at you, <player>!"

"You could not only pass for a captain...Even that Trial Guide outfit fits you to a tee. Until we meet again, then."

Academy Event - Pasio Academy Opening

Welcome to Pasio Academy!
Off-screen, as "???"

"Oh? That must be..."

After appearing

"<player>, right? The one doing a trial enrollment?"

Two Star Students
As Ilima

"I'll support you any way I can so that your academy experience is enjoyable!"

"I'm honored to help spread the word and get people about the academy."

"It's like a study abroad program where Trainers from many regions can learn together!"

"I think it's wonderful, what Pasio Academy is trying to achieve!"

"I myself was able to expand my horizons by studying abroad in Kalos."

"So I think you too will view the world differently after being here, <player>!"

"Students seem to like hanging out in this courtyard here during breaks."

Pasio Academy's Uniforms

"The school rules, including the dress code, reflect the wishes of the students who helped establish the academy."

"Oh, Ride Pokémon! Interesting!"

"Back in Alola, Ride Pokémon are a means of public transportation."

"Time for you to join a few classes!"

"We hope your studies go well!"

Always Welcome!

"Looks like you've all learned a lot!"

"Director Clavell, wasn't <player> still on just a trial enrollment?"

"We plan to help Pasio Academy provide high-quality education."

Have Fun Studying

"I agree!"

"There's so much to learn from other experiences."

"As captains back in Alola, we'd stick totem stickers all around the islands."

"Yes! Really, if I had to describe them, I'd say they're stickers for helping trial-goers on their island challenge."

"If young trial-goers collected those stickers as they traveled and followed the path they indicated..."

"they'd quite naturally progress along their island challenge."

"There must be a way!"

"Maybe we should brainstorm!"

Sync Pair Story - A Day with Ilima

"I admit defeat. Impressive, <player>!"

"I'm glad for the chance to test out my new tactics, too!"

"Ever since I arrived on Pasio, I've been exploring new battle strategies especially suited for sync pairs."

"When battling as a team, it's important to position yourself well so you don't interfere with your allies."

"That's why I was simulating how to maximize power while minimizing movement!"

"However, that seems to have led to my defeat..."

"Looks like when trying to keep still, Gumshoos and I still can't make the most of our strengths."

That's tough!: "Indeed. However, when things don't go according to plan, it only makes me want to try again!"

We could try other strategies!: "You're right. That's what's fun about Pokémon battles, isn't it?"

"I'll take this as a challenge to come up with another strategy!"

"Oh? I wonder if the sun going down is making him sleepy."

"Gumshoos are resilient Pokémon, but they're diurnal, so by the time the sun sets, they tend to run out of energy."

"It's part of his nature, so I'd rather not push him."

"Maybe it'd be best to battle in the afternoon, when Gumshoos can give it his all."

"Would you mind battling me again when Gumshoos can best put his strength to use?"

"Thank you. I'll think of a new strategy by then!"

"Since Gumshoos is looking tired, how about we give it a rest for the day? I've some delicious sweets prepared."

"While studying abroad, I grew fond of a sweet called Lumiose Galette, so I've been trying things on Pasio as well."

"I also have some tea ready, so please, allow me to treat you."

"Oh? He seemed so tired just a moment ago."

"It almost looks like he's begging for a snack."

"Maybe his hunger's stronger than his sleepiness."

"*chuckle* How adorable. Another new discovery!"

Pokémon Center

During sync background preview

"Captain magic! Voilà! Your world just got a little bigger."

Random conversation

"In my role as captain, I just want to do my part to make everyone shine!"

"Clearing a trial is no easy feat."

"That's why those who've overcome trials and seized the future beyond seem to shine!"

Random conversation

"I once got mixed up in a mysterious incident."

"What happened was a Nugget of mine vanished, although I had hidden it carefully, deep in the back of my bookshelves..."

"However, I had my suspicions on the culprit..."

"...and so I apprehended some Hypno who'd been loitering around my home."

Random conversation

"Pokémon have a variety of types."

"Like Electric and Rock, for example. Each type has unique qualities that can heavily impact your strategies in battle."

"Do you have a type you're particularly fond of?"

"If so...I hope you stick to it."

Random conversation

"I love to run simulations of battle strategies."

"I can only know a strategy of mine is good or bad by putting it into practice."

"The battle data I gain becomes wisdom I can draw from when forming new tactics."

Random conversation

"Whenever Trainers undertake my trial, the first thing I recommend is that they fill out their team."

"After all, having reliable friends by your side can lead to success in the trial."

"So it'd make me happy to become a reliable friend of yours, <player>."

Random conversation

"I've traveled the world since I was young with my mother, who was an actress on the stage."

"In doing so, I came to realize something."

"I realized how beautiful my mother was when she dedicated herself completely to the role she was playing onstage..."

"Yes, it is moving to see such complete dedication—to anything!"

If spoken to again

"The reason you seem to shine must be your dedication to Pokémon, <player>."

"The sight of you and your partner giving it your all grips my heart and refuses to let go."

"That's how I feel..."

Random conversation

"<player>, have you ever heard of an item in Alola called an Everstone?"

"You don't tend to see them on Pasio, but when a Pokémon holds an Everstone, it will not evolve."

"Choosing to evolve or not can be part of one's strategy."

If spoken to again

"You can intentionally choose not to evolve a Pokémon."

"At times, doing so can even lead to positive results."

"May our friendship last as long as an Everstone."

Special log-in conversation (generic)

"How are your adventures on Pasio going, <player>?"

"May the future bring you and your partner Pokémon happiness!"

Special log-in conversation (morning)

"Captain magic! Ahh, I feel so much sharper in the morning when I shout that out loud."

Special log-in conversation (afternoon)

"May fortune favor you on your adventure!"
