Professor Willow dialogue
- Good to see you again, TRAINER. Have you noticed an increased number of Abra in the area?
- Yes, so did I. I originally thought this strange phenomenon was happening due to Abra’s ability to teleport.
- When Abra decides to teleport randomly, it creates the illusion that it’s made copies of itself.
- However, what’s happening right now really does seem to be a large number of Abra appearing in the wild! Let’s research more about Abra and see what we can discover about the Psi Pokémon!
- Fantastic work, TRAINER! Are you having difficulty catching Abra you encounter?
- It’s said that you must clear your mind if you want to catch an Abra.
- Or maybe you could ask your buddy for some catching assistance!
- I’ve got a few more things about Abra that I could use your help researching. How about you give me a hand, and I’ll see if I can find a nice treat for your buddy?
- I’m sure your buddy appreciates that delicious Poffin! I’m more of a Pinap Berry man myself.
- While researching Abra, I read that it can sense danger and maintains a telepathic radar even while it’s sleeping! What amazing abilities!
- Why don’t you keep researching? As a token of my thanks, I’ll give you one of the Rocket Radars I’ve developed.
- While it won’t give you Abra’s ability to sense danger while sleeping, it will help you track down any trouble the Team GO Rocket Leaders are stirring up.
- Thank you again, TRAINER, for all your help today. It was incredible researching Abra with you.
- We learned so much about this Psychic-type Pokémon. Rumor has it that some lucky Trainers even encountered Shiny Abra in the wild!
- Pokémon are truly amazing creatures. There’s always something to discover.
- Until next time, TRAINER!
