• Hi all
    Just a notice, we recently discovered that someone got into a moderator account and started hard deleting a load of key and legacy threads...around 150 threads have been lost dating back to 2007 and some weeks ago so we can't roll the forums back.
    Luckily no personal data could be accessed by this moderator, and we've altered the permissions so hard deleting isn't possible in the future
    Sorry for any inconvenience with this and sorry for any lost posts.

Ridiculous NPC's in Pokemon

You know those NPC's, the random trainers that say funny, confusing, or stupid things. There are classics like Youngster Joey, and there are strange ones like the pokemon ranger in Black and White 2 who screams "NAAAAAAAATUUUUURE!!!" before and after the battle! Or how about the daycare man? I've been breeding with the Masuda effect. And after around 200 eggs a day he STILL HAS NO IDEA WHERE THE EGG CAME FROM!!!

Post some of your favorite NPC quotes or actions that you found funny, or plain strange!

I was going to say the daycare man too. His willful ignorance of where babies come from at his age is astounding.
 
There is a hiker on the route between Humilau City and Giant Chasm in Black 2 and White 2 who says "Shut up and battle me!"

Personally, a favorite of mine is the Trainer in HGSS who exclaims, "BASABASABASABASA!" before battling you.

This is only strange if you assume that a) Pokémon reproduce in a way that is comparable to what we typically think of as sexual reproduction, and b) Pokémon don't refuse to breed when being observed.

Also known as the peeping Tom, the actual words were: "Heheh, this Gym is great! It's full of women!"
Little changes but the meaning is still the same... That was a creepy one, especially the Heheh part

Professor Oak. He counts as an NPC right? Anyway without you having a phone or anything in the 1st gen he somehow magically is able to tell you not to ride your bike indoors.

Those hikers in D/P/P that spoke another language were so annoying. I like to know what my opponent is saying to me.

I'm 26 now, why am I still here?
I still say the old RBY lavender tower channelers were creepy and ridiculous as hell. The things they said were spooky, things like "I need blood" and what not and then acting as if they were possessed by ghosts afterwords. Some freaky people I tell you.

I assume you're being humurous and not actually suggesting that Professor Oak somehow telepathically communicates with you then and there though right? It is merely something that he must've said at some point which clearly resonated with the player character, hence "Oak's words echoed..."

"Where do you come from?"

>YES
>NO



"You know what's cool? Wail- Wail- Wailmer watching!"



"I groom my Pokémon with 500 brush strokes a day. Then I do me."



Hoenn is ridiculous, having all that.

Exactly. You don't know how a pile of goo and a lamp would breed, do you? P:

Anyway. My favorite is the guy that asks where we come from at Pacifidlog Town, especially the No answer.

"No? But that's ridiculous. You must come from somewhere.

Oh wait. Don't tell me you come from the bottom of the ocean."

Gets me every time I visit. Cx

"This pillar! It's so thick!"

Oh gawd. This. That maid... seriously.

Let's not forget the sweaty and ever creepy Hiker Anthony from the Nimbasa Ferris Wheel. Glad he finally found love according to another NPC at Shalour.

I still love the foreign Rocket Grunt you encounter in the Kanto section of Gold and Silver. I don't want to seem mean, as normally I respect other people's accents, but I get a kick out of reading his text every time
