Petalburg

Character	Quotes (excluding those during cutscenes)
A Koopa Troopa near the west entrance who welcomes visitors. Tattle: "That's a Petalburg Koopa. He seems sorta like the spokesperson for this town. I heard this guy's thinking of running for mayor. He must be more ambitious than he looks."	"Visitors are sure rare here, but they're always welcome! Make yourselves at home." "I don't know if you know, but there's an odd-shaped boulder west of the village. Yeppity, that thing's been around since way before I was even born. I figure it must be a relic of a long-lost civilization. Sounds cool, right?" "You know, I bet there's a whole world we know nothing about past Hooktail's castle. But...wait! Don't tell me! I want to see it for myself! You know, explore. Like you!" "I want to have an adventure like you guys. Actually, I even went to Hooktail Castle once. And you know what? The drawbridge over the moat was busted. I couldn't get in. How did you guys manage to get across that moat with the drawbridge broken, huh?" "Huh? What's that? General White? Oh, he was here a while ago, but he said he was taking a trip. And then he left. Wait, hang on a sec'... He did say something about a deserted isle to the south... He was either going there... or NOT going there..." "I want to have an adventure like you guys. Actually, I even went to Hooktail Castle once. And you know what? The drawbridge over the moat was busted. I couldn't get in. How are you guys going to get across that moat with the drawbridge broken, huh?"
A red Toad near the bridge in the west scene. Tattle: "That's a Toad from Petalburg. He seems like, totally obsessed with Hooktail. Then again, he looks kinda like everything freaks him out. Poor little guy..."	"You saw Hooktail on your way here? Are you sure? Big old dragon, tail like a hook? Wow, you're super-duper lucky it didn't see you! I'm not even kidding with you. If it'd seen you, I'm sure it would've gobbled you up like an after-dinner mint. It must've been stuffed or thought you looked gross... At any rate, you were lucky." "Wait, my ears must be broken. Did you say you're planning on battling Hooktail? That sounds like a bad joke! And here's the punchline: you, squished to paper-thinness!" "Some rumormonger told me you guys defeated Hooktail... That's just a joke, right? Whaaaat? It's true?!? No way! I figured it was gonna crumple you up and throw you in its trash can!" "So, it's true that you guys defeated Hooktail? Wow! I'm sorry I doubted you. But really... Do you blame me? I mean, you're so skinny! You're wafer-thin!"
A red Toad kid in the west scene. He loves video games and breaks the fourth wall often. Tattle: "This kid sure is a fanatic. All he talks about is video games, you notice that? I wonder if he's finished his homework for today? Y'know, homework's important, too!"	"Hey, what's up? I gotta say, I'm really hooked on playing GBA games lately. There's this one game that just absolutely rules. It's called 'Fire Emblem'... You ever heard of it? Man, it ROCKS MY SOCKS!!!" "Hey, what's shaking? I gotta say, I've been playing a lot of Nintendo 64 games recently. You know the N64, right? Well, the game I play the most on it is 'Paper Mario.' There's this girl in the game, Bow, who's pretty much the cutest Boo OF ALL TIME!!!" "Hey, I gotta say, all I do is play my Nintendo GameCube. Best system ever, am I right? Yeah, I think so, too. Anyway, I saved up for a new game... The sequel to 'Paper Mario'! I just got started, but it's a blast so far. A BLAAAST! Try it for yourself and see!" "I've been playing 'Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door' like crazy lately... I wasn't sure at first... But that game is AWESOME! I just beat it! Every chapter! Totally cool ending! I loved it. So worth the money! Think there'll be a sequel? If not, I hope they make a Paper Luigi game. Yeah! I bet that'd be awesome, too..." "I've gotta say, I've been playing the new Paper Mario game almost nonstop. I'm on the fence so far... Gotta put serious time into a game to review it properly. But I can definitely tell you this: if you're a Luigi fan, do NOT miss out on this one!"
A Koopa Troopa in the easternmost house of the west scene. He is a fan of Princess Peach. Tattle: "This guy's apparently a total die-hard Peach fan. He even collects Peach merchandise! He has posters and pictures up everywhere. Boy, get a life, know what I mean? Hey! Mario! Don't tell me YOU have a secret collection of plush Peach dolls, too!"	"Hey, uh... Well, come on in, I guess! Door's open! Oh, Hooktail? It lives at the top of that old castle beyond this hummock. Have you heard the rumors? Some say lots of treasure is hidden in that castle. Scores of people have gone in search of it, but...not a one has returned. So...what do you think? You're getting scared, huh?" "You're going to the castle? You're really dying to get that treasure, aren't you? Careful... I've heard that Hooktail's not the only nasty beast in that castle. I'd love some treasure, too, but do I want to become a snack for it? No thanks! We Koopas are long-lived for a reason, you know. Good luck being digested and all." "You beat Hooktail? Wow! Hey, so tell me... Find any treasure?" (Upon selecting any of "You bet we did!" or "Who needs treasure?" or "None of your beeswax!") "Oh, OK... They say the Koopas who perished there cursed the place with their regret. So, anyone who claims the treasure will lose all his strength. Yeah. Nasty, huh? ...So, what do you think? You scared now, or what? Ha! I'm just messing with you!" "Oh, is that so? Hooktail is toast, huh? I GUESS that's a good thing... Although... Well, I've heard that Hooktail had LOTS of dragon friends. Yeah. And I've heard they're all much, MUCH meaner and more powerful than Hooktail... ...So, what do you think? You shaking now, or what? Ha! Psych! Served!"
A Bub-ulb with blue petals in the west of the east scene. Tattle: "That's a Bub-ulb, a talking flower. I think he lives in Petalburg. I know he's a plant, but he makes more sense than these other crazy Petalburgers!"	"This village is very nice. Clear water, clean air... Absolutely delicious. But this foul Hooktail... It's made everyone forget their fortunes. How sad." "If only this Hooktail were gone, I'm sure everyone's hearts would shine again. I am just a simple soul, but I remain sure this is the key to restoring happiness here." "Rejoice! The fearful Hooktail is gone, and everyone is of good cheer once again! I truly hope that now people will begin to visit this village once more." "This town is very peaceful. Yes, and that is why there are so many flowers. But...I have heard there are places in the world where no flowers bloom. I could never forgive myself if I did nothing to try to bring flowers to such places. That is why I shoot out spores as often as I can. It is my civic duty!"
A Koopa Troopa in the east scene. Tattle: "That's a Petalburg Koopa. He always seems to be worried about something. It's weird, too, 'cause the rest of this town is so laid-back, y'know?"	"Boy, the mayor has been so forgetful lately. I'm actually worried the old gipper may even forget my face one of these days!" "Sniff... SNIFFFFFFFF... The scent of this grass has healing properties, I swear. It just takes me to a happy place, know what I mean? You think so, too, right?" (Upon selecting either "Boy, do I!" or "You're a wacko!") "Fair enough." "You know, I've been worrying about the mayor lately... He's been so darn forgetful... But he says he's always been forgetful... Yeah! Ever since he was a kid, he says. I guess I never should have worried, right? Seriously, what a waste of brainpower. But...now that I think on it... maybe I'M getting forgetful! Now I'm worried about me..."
A red Toad in the east scene. Tattle: "That's a Toad from Petalburg. He just seems like a regular Toad to me... But I hear he leads a secret life as president of the Luigi Fan Club!"	"Hey, Hooktail's scary, but so is the monster that lives in the fortress near town! I mean, normal attacks are completely useless against it! At least, that's what I heard. Oh, and that's not all! Fire attacks are ALSO useless! The very idea freaks me out!" "What? No way! ...Really? You defeated the monster in that fortress? Wow! You must be tougher than you look, mister! I underestimated you." "Wait... What did you say? You defeated Hooktail, too? You really are cool, mister! Hey, wait a minute! Could you be...that super-famous guy? That guy named...Luigi? Yeah, you look just like him! I'm right, aren't I?" "Hey, Mario... You're Luigi's older brother, right? That's so cool! I mean, you're cool, too, and all, but I just think Luigi is the greatest!" "Hey, Mario... You're Luigi's older brother, right? That's so rad! I mean, you're rad, too, and all, but I just think Luigi is the greatest! See, me personally? I think that being able to jump that high is totally awesome."
A Koopa Troopa guarding the east exit of Petalburg. Tattle: "That's the gatekeeper of Petalburg. He's super-dutiful about guarding this gate. But I bet he'd totally run for cover if real monsters ever did show up here... I just get a feeling about him. Goomba's intuition, maybe?"	"An old stronghold called Shhwonk Fortress lies ahead. A stone creature lives there. At least, it MIGHT live there. This gate is to keep it out. My job...is guarding the gate." "Be prepared for trouble, and trouble will pass you by. That's what I always say! By which I mean, it'd be wise to stock up on items before you go to Shhwonk Fortress. I've heard there are beasts there that you can't beat in battle without items. My personal recommendation? Probably POW Blocks. Yeah. They're always a solid choice." "You defeated the fabled stone monster of Shhwonk? Whoa! Well done! But wait... Hold on, now... That means I have no more job, doesn't it? Well, what do you suppose I should do now, huh? What a pickle..." "Huh? Did I hear that right? The stone monster appeared? So, the stories were true... You'd better go and buy some items then. You know, just to be on the safe side. Yup, that'd be a smart move. And the shopkeeper will be psyched to see you, too." 1 "Huh?!? You say you beat Hooktail??? That's incredible! Amazing! So I guess that means your adventure is finally over, eh? What? It's only just begun?!? Wow, really? In that case, you'd better stock up on more items. I bet they'll come in handy!" "Thanks to you, it'll be calm here again. Of course, peace and quiet is bad for business. Nobody goes in that shop anymore. The business world is a rough place, man... Hey! Buy some items once in a while! The guy in the shop sure would appreciate it!"

Poshley Heights

Character	Quotes
A Toad worker in black and blue uniform near the Excess Express in the first scene. Tattle: "That's a Poshley Heights Station worker. He mostly just checks train tickets. I'm SO jealous of people that work in totally nice places. They even see movie stars... "	"This train is bound for Rogueport. Would you like to board at this time, sir?" (Upon selecting "Yes") "If I may, let me just check your ticket..." "Very good, sir. Please watch your step." "All aboard!" "I'm very sorry, but we simply cannot let anyone board without a ticket." (Upon selecting "No") "We look forward to serving you later, then!" (During Chapter 6) "We have a bit of time until our next departure." (After Chapter 6) "There is still some time before the next departure."
A green Toad girl selling Fresh Pasta in her stand in the second scene. She does not have a tattle.	"Welcome to you! How'd you like to buy some high-quality Fresh Pasta as a Poshley souvenir? One package costs 50 coins. How about it?" (Upon selecting "Buy it!") "Thank you!" (Upon selecting "Nah, don't buy it.") "Come again, OK?" "Ooh, sorry, but you don't have enough coins. Yeah, sorry. Please come back when you have enough, OK?" "You have too much stuff! Please, sell, use, or store something, then come back!"
A penguin walking outside in the second scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's related to Herringway, the novelist. Now that he's used to life here, he seems to be making the most of it, huh?"	"I'd heard Poshley Heights was a quiet place...but there are lots of tourists, eh? Maybe I should just open up a store selling Shiver City souvenirs? Yah, maybe so..." "Lately, there've been fewer tourists, so things are really quiet, eh? I was thinking about opening a souvenir shop, but maybe it was right to wait, sure..."
A penguin in the house in the second scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's related to Herringway, the novelist. Herringway's detective books have sold so well that he's bought a second house here. "	"So, lovely house, eh? Yah, sure, take your time to soak in all of its majesty. I built it with even the smallest details in mind, making every nook special! Not only the interior, but the facade as well! Yah, look around outside, too!"
Another penguin in the house in the second scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's related to Herringway, the novelist. Moving from frigid Shiver City to toasty Poshley Heights seems to have irked him. "	"I guess it's sorta fun to live here... But I can't eat snow cones... Or make little snowmen... Or go ice-skating... Or any of the stuff I did in Shiver City, eh? Don't know what you got 'til it's gone!" "I've been traveling back and forth between Shiver City and Poshley Heights lately. Yah, there are some things you can only do here and some you can only do there. So I've been trying to get the best of both worlds, yah, you betcha."
A penguin in the west of the third scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He says he walks barefoot for his health. I wonder if I should try that..."	"It may not look like it, but I get pretty stressed out. Like, REALLY bad, eh? But walking barefoot on the grass like this makes me feel much better, you betcha. Care to join me, guy?"
A penguin in the south of the third scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He's totally fixated on this spot, for some reason. I was thinking maybe he hops into the fountain on really hot days... But wasn't there a nasty old snapping Nibbles in that fountain?"	"Hey, there. Poshley Heights is sure nice and warm, eh? Yah, I really dig it here. Cold places make me sneeze..." "Hey, there. Poshley Heights is sure nice and warm, huh? Yeah, I really dig it here. Cold places make me sneeze..."
A penguin in the east of the third scene. Tattle: "That's a resident of Poshley Heights. He really, REALLY likes the sanctum. Really. I kinda see where he's coming from... It IS a nice building. Talk about an eyeful, y'know?"	"Poshley Sanctum is a rather famous building, eh? And the painting inside isn't the only gorgeous thing: so is the building! I could just stare at it all day, you betcha!"
