1^st Part

• Hey there, TRAINER! Funny you should pop by—I was just reflecting on our incredible journey together!
• Encountering gigantic Pokémon, unfurling incredible mysteries, foiling Team GO Rocket countless times... We’ve faced extraordinary challenges together, haven’t we?
• Our research has introduced us to Pokémon from all over the world, forged wonderful friendships, and led to some amazing discoveries.
• And speaking of discoveries, I’ve noticed some unusual sounds lately.
• I’m going to investigate, and while I do, I need you to continue your excellent work in the field.

2^nd Part

• Good news, TRAINER! I’ve made a breakthrough on those acoustic mysteries I was looking into.
• And as I suspected, they’re not just any sound wave, they’re the unique melodies of the Mythical Pokémon Meloetta!
• Meloetta uses song to influence the emotions of those who hear it. And on that note, I’d like you to try and spot any unusual behavior in the local Pokémon.
• It’s not every day we get to study a Mythical Pokémon, so let’s make the most of this opportunity!

3^rd Part

• Hello again, TRAINER! We may not have found Meloetta yet, but I can definitely still hear it.
• So our musical friend can’t be too far off—we just might have to change our usual pitch.
• Why don’t you go out and do a little singing and dancing to see if it affects people and Pokémon nearby?
• Who knows, that might be the "key" to success! Heh heh... Music joke. I’ve got a million!

4^th Part

• If it isn’t our intrepid enter-Trainer! Say, did you know that Meloetta’s melodies have inspired many famous songs?
• It’s just fascinating—Meloetta shows us how music helps us to forge special bonds with one another.
• It’s not unlike your amazing ability to connect with other people and Pokémon. Every new Pokémon you catch or Trainer you meet is a new potential friend!
• And on that uplifting note, get out there and see what new friendships await, TRAINER.

5^th Part

• TRAINER! I’ve dug up some useful information on Meloetta. Did you know that it was first discovered in the Unova region?
• That might not seem critical, but we have to take advantage of every scrap of information we can to help us make sense of Meloetta’s behavior.
• Keep up your fieldwork, if you would! Watch for Pokémon experiencing strong emotions, check out some new places, and maybe try to forge some new connections.
• Let’s keep this research rhythm going!

6^th Part

• This is the moment we’ve been waiting for, TRAINER!
• Your dedicated work has helped me to pinpoint Meloetta’s location at last!
• This could be your chance to befriend an extraordinary Pokémon.
• Head out there and show Meloetta the same kindness and dedication you’ve shown all your Pokémon friends!

7^th Part

• I knew you’d “measure” up, TRAINER! And—whoa!
• What a striking appearance this Meloetta has! My research notes have nothing about this distinctive coloring. It’s truly incredible!
• I’ve been watching your journey since you took your first steps as a Trainer. Seeing how far you’ve come makes me so proud to call you my research partner—and more importantly, my friend!
• I know you’ll keep that Meloetta singing proudly, TRAINER. You never fall flat!
