"I am the last of the Pokémon League Elite Four, Drake the Dragon master! In their natural state, Pokémon are wild living things. They are free. At times, they hinder us. At times, they help us. For us to battle with Pokémon as partners, do you know what it takes? Do you know what is needed? If you don't, then you will never prevail over me!" "You deserve every credit for coming this far as a Trainer of Pokémon. You do seem to know what is needed. Yes, what a Trainer needs is a virtuous heart. Pokémon touch the good hearts of Trainers and learn good from wrong. They touch the good hearts of Trainers and grow strong. Go! Go onwards! The Champion is waiting!" "Oh, I've been waitin' for you! My Pokémon and I are going to show you everything we've got! Well then, you had better get ready to try and stop me!" "Looks like you had a restful sleep. A good day often starts after a good night, doesn't it." "The sea is calm this morning. Seems like a good day for sailing." "If you don't know what a Trainer truly needs, you will never prevail over me!" "Remember, what a Trainer needs is a true and virtuous heart." "Make sure you rest well for tomorrow. Your Pokémon will worry if you're not shipshape." "Don't force yourself to stay awake if you get tired. Heed a little advice from an old sailor." "Already afternoon. Fine weather like this makes me want to go for a sail." "Don't waste away your afternoons. Time is limited, after all!" You must've heard the whistle blowing. A ship left the port just now. Look, over there. Pasio sure has some fine ships. They're powerful enough to stay on the course they've plotted even in stormy seas. Seeing them makes me wonder whether I've been living strongly enough." "A long time ago, my friend Briney and I were trying to become the greatest sailors in the world. We dreamed of mastering every sea route there is. But then, one day, when I was out to sea, my ship got caught in a storm. Somehow, I avoided sinking, but I was adrift for days after that. I had used up the last of my food and water, so I thought I was done for, but then a Dragonite appeared in the sky. That Dragonite led me all the way back to shore. Having a different species show me that sort of kindness impacted me deeply.I decided that if my life had been saved by a Pokémon, I should use it to benefit Pokémon. That's when I decided to become a Trainer. I abandoned my friend and started down a different path. I apologized to Briney so many times.bBut he wasn't even angry at me! He sent me on my way with a smile. That's why I want to be the greatest Trainer of them all. It's for my old friend Briney, too. Like a ship that stays the course through a storm, no matter what difficulties I may encounter, I'll continue on the path that I've chosen. I come to the ocean to remind myself of what I have resolved to do. And also to remember that Dragonite that saved me so long ago, wherever it is now..." "Salamence and I have been training together since he was just a Bagon. Since we've been together for so long, we know a lot about each other, such as our favorite colors of Pokéblocks." "Back when Briney and I were trying to be the greatest sailors in the world, we used to spend a lot of time talking. We talked about all kinds of things and sure did have a lot of fun. Especially that one time... Hahahaha! Hey, don't give me that suspicious look!" "I talk about all kinds of things, but it was really just about ships, like arguing over which one we should set sail on next. Yes, Briney and I have been crazy about ships since way back. And now I feel the same way about Pokémon. What do you think? Do you want to have some fun talking Pokémon with me?" "Let me tell you, Hoenn is a great place--full of beautiful nature and, more than anything, a nice place to live. When you've gotten a little stronger, we should go visit it at the same time. I know you're a Trainer I can count on, so it shouldn't be too far off in the future! When you do make it there, I'll already be waiting for you as one of the Hoenn League Elite Four! Just because you make it to me, don't think that I won't go down without a fight! And because it's you, this ol' Drake will give you everything he's got!" "A long, long time ago, a Pokémon saved my life. I fell overboard and was about to drown when a wild Dragonite rescued me. I felt I needed to repay that majestic Pokémon in some way, so I vowed to become a Trainer. Spending my youth with a Dratini I encountered after that is one of my treasured memories. It's the relationships between Pokémon, people, and nature that make our world what it is. For the Dragonite that taught me that, I'll keep on being one of the Hoenn Elite Four for as long as I can." "I've got an old friend in Hoenn named Briney. The way he handles a rudder is quite impressive. Why, I can still remember all the times we set sail together like it was yesterday. Cherish your friends. Someday, the time you spent together will become wonderful memories. I wonder how ol' Briney and Peeko are doing. In our day, Briney and Drake were names that echoed throughout our hometown."
