Heroes in Unova: Pokémon's Base Conversations

Ash's Tepig/Pignite & Ash's Snivy

Ash's Tepig/Pignite & Ash's Snivy

First conversation:

Snivy: The sky is clear, I could take a nap and rest a little under the sun.

Tepig: What's up, Snivy?

Snivy: Oh, hi, Tepig. Do you feel well?

Tepig: Yep.

Snivy: What are you doing here?

Tepig: I'd like us to talk a bit, to knowing better each other. How have you been?

Snivy: I'm all right for now. And you?

Tepig: I'm alright as well. What do you think to do now?

Snivy: Take a little nap under the sun.

Tepig: ...

Snivy: Huh? Why are you depressed?

Tepig: I... it's nothing... I feel depressed sometimes.

Snivy: Is it because of a battle that you lost?

Tepig: ...yes.

Snivy: Don't feel bad, just do your best effort and you are going to win.

Tepig: The thing is I've given the best of mine and I'm still losing.

Snivy: Hmm...

Tepig: Maybe am I failing in something? Am I not quick, strong or tough enough to win even a single battle?

Snivy: I don't think is your fault. Soon you are going to win more battles.

Tepig: That I wonder about you, you have lost several times for you to be happy.

Snivy: ... (That is right, I wonder if it's Ash's fault. If he continued behaving like a kid, I could even abandon him. I don't want that to happen.) You are right. I have to improve a lot because I'm also failing, I think. (I hope that is it, until this moment I have not reached the last straw.) Put effort in the fights and you will see how everything turns out.

Tepig: Alright, Snivy. I'll do my best.

Second conversation:

Snivy: Hello, Tepig.

Tepig: ...

Snivy: Are you still depressed?

Tepig: Yeah...

Snivy: What's wrong with you?

Tepig: The thing is sometimes I think Ash is going to abandon me like my previous trainer did to me.

Snivy: Did you have a previous trainer?

Tepig: Yeah... To him I was a weak Pokémon that knew nothing but losing. Even against a weak opponent.

Snivy: Tepig...

Tepig: The failure was such that he tied my snout with a rope and tied me to a post, and abandoned me. He was gone and I saw him go. I wanted to be with him, he was my trainer, the first person that I met. I somehow tied off and went to search for him, but it was too late, he had gone already.

Snivy: ...

Tepig: I was wandering for days in the area with the possibility of find him after he abandoned me. I passed many days without eating, until finally Ash and Iris came to end my torment.

Snivy: ...

Tepig: I'm afraid that, by losing many battles, Ash is going to abandon me like my previous trainer did to me. *sigh* I'm a shame to him.

Snivy: ...Tepig.

Tepig: Hmm?

Snivy: That is not going to happen.

Tepig: Are you serious?

Snivy: Yes, I assure you. Ash is a good trainer to leave abandoned a Pokémon.

Tepig: ...

Snivy: Just have faith and try your best in battles, okay?

Tepig: ...thanks. That made me a little bit better.

Snivy: Ash loves you so much, don't forget it.

Tepig: Yeah, I'll keep it in mind.

Third conversation:

Snivy: Hello, Pignite.

Pignite: Oh, hi, Snivy. I haven't seen you before. It's strange that you start a conversation with another Pokémon.

Snivy: I'm not used to do that kind of things.

Pignite: And tell me, what have you come here?

Snivy: Well, I wanted to congratulate you for having evolved to Pignite.

Pignite: Right, thank you, Snivy.

Snivy: You are welcome.

Pignite: That makes me wonder: was it true that you wanted to help me with the battle against Shamus?

Snivy: Well... the truth is yes, I wanted to help you.

Pignite: Why did you do it?

Snivy: The two of us had bad trainers in the past. I didn't want to see you sad for that Shamus who abandoned you and tied you by the snout so you cannot eat.

Pignite: You mean, you did it... for my honor, right, Snivy?

Snivy: It could say it like that. You are an important member of our team. I didn't want to see you sad because of your previous trainer. I had no other option that battle with you, so that you don't lose your honor. You have been through the same thing as me, but that is in the past, now you belong to Ash's team and you are a very strong Pokémon. I feel... proud and... happy for you.

Pignite: That's strange coming from you, Snivy, but thank you.

Snivy: You're welcome.

Pignite: Ah, and Snivy, one more thing.

Snivy: Yes?

Pignite: Was it necessary that you attacked me with Vine Whip to motivate me before facing my previous trainer?

Snivy: Well... I think so. I wanted to cheer you up somehow, I didn't want to see you sad after all what Shamus did to you.

Pignite: Your way of showing your worry to others is really strange, and violent, and painful. I must thank you for support me in that tough moment.

Snivy: No problem, Pignite, that is why partners are for.
