# 0_0 I’ve traveled a long way to make my
beloved Pokémon even more beautiful.
That will make it love me even more.
Giggle!
# 0_1 Nothing is too good for my Pokémon.
There’s no mountain too high to climb.\fThat’s how I look at it.
# 0_2 Oh, how I long to become a member of
the Ribbon Syndicate.
My dearest Pokémon will be treated to
dreamy experiences!
# 0_3 A member of the Ribbon Syndicate?
You are? Really?
How did you manage to collect so many
Pokémon Ribbons?
# 0_4 You know how you can dig up cool
stuff in the Underground?
People are saying they’re digging up
new, different stuff.
# 0_5 Nobody believes me, but something
lurks in the Resort Area.
It’s the hidden ruler of the area!
You have to believe me!
If you believe me, whip out your
Super Rod and go fishing.
Who knows, you may just catch the
mind-blowing ruler!
# 0_6 Psst, hey, traveler! Yes, you!
I want you to have this Villa!
Oh, wait, no, no, no!
It’s not what you’re thinking!
This is no scam, see.
In fact, you’ll be doing me a favor!
See, I was given this Villa. But, to
be honest, I don’t need it, either.
So don’t say a word.
Just nod and this Villa is yours!
# 0_7 Whew, that’s a load off my mind.
The original owner was from Hoenn,
see?
The owner collected up all the rare
stones of Sinnoh and went back home.
I somehow got saddled with this place
as if it were some gift.
There’s no figuring what rich folks
will think of next.
Still, I thank you for helping me out.
Come with me, will you?
# 0_8 What, I still strike you as shady?
I daresay I can’t blame you, though.
An offer to get a Villa for free...
That does throw up red flags, I agree.
# 0_9 None too shabby, you have to agree.
Step inside for a look-see.
# 0_10 Rowan: Hm! I happened to be in the
area on a small errand.\fI’d like to take a rest if you’d allow it.
# 0_11 Rowan: Hm!
I appreciate your hospitality.
# 0_12 Rowan: Hmm...
Do you have something to hide?
# 0_13 Roark: Hi! Could I take a peek inside
your Villa?
# 0_14 Roark: Thanks!
# 0_15 Roark: ...Oh, sorry.
Am I intruding on something?
# 0_16 Gardenia: Listen, listen!
I came for a visit! Can I go in?
# 0_17 Gardenia: Yes!
No time to waste!
# 0_18 Gardenia: Oh, right.
You must have plans already.
# 0_19 Maylene: ...Um, your Villa...
Would it be OK if I took a look around?
# 0_20 Maylene: Oh, thank you.
# 0_21 Maylene: Oh...
It makes me a little sad...
# 0_22 Byron: Guhahahaha!
How’s your Villa?
Can you give me a tour?
# 0_23 Byron: All right!
Let’s have a look, then!
# 0_24 Byron: Well!
How cold can you be?
