# 0_0 Elder: You showed us what you’ve got,
and it is indeed good...
Take this Technical Machine.
However, you should care more about
your Pokémon.
The way you treat your Pokémon can
be too harsh...
Remember, Pokémon are not tools
of war...
# 0_1 VAR(259, 0, 0): ...
...Humph!
He calls himself the Elder, but he was\fno match for me.
Sure enough, those who lecture how
you should be “nice” to Pokémon...\fThey cannot defeat me.
All I care about are strong Pokémon
that win every time.
The rest of them don’t mean anything
to me.
# 0_2 VAR(259, 0, 0) used
an Escape Rope!
# 0_3 So good of you to come here!
Sprout Tower is a place of training.
People and Pokémon test their bonds\fto build a bright future together.\fI am the final test.
Allow me to check the ties between
you and your Pokémon!
# 0_4 Hmmm...
The way you battle is quite elegant.
You should be able to stand up
to Falkner.
And you should be able to make good use
of this...
It is a Technical Machine called Flash.
Take it with you!
# 0_5 When a Pokémon learns Flash, you can
illuminate caves no matter how dark\fthey may be.
You can try it on BELLSPROUT,
for example...
# 0_6 I hope you learn and grow from
your journey.
# 0_7 It’s a powerful painting of a
BELLSPROUT.
# 0_8 A Pokémon statue...
It looks very distinguished.
