Adventure Mode
Aster
- "Visitors to the Temple of Bask... Before all else, I require a display of skill."
- "I sense strength and honor, as well as great potential. I believe you have what it takes to overcome this trial."
- "Use the different shots you know of to solve the mystery and open up the Gate of Trials."
- "Master Mario! I have been awaiting your most fated of arrivals!"
- "I am Aster, humble guardian of the noble King Bask. It is my duty to watch over the one called Lucien."
- "Lucien, as you most certainly already know, is the name of an almighty racket. It is a dangerous being with the power to control people!"
- "King Bask, who once ruled this kingdom, was awed by the racket's power and took it as his own. In the end...it destroyed the entire kingdom."
- "But with the last of his power, our king somehow managed to seal Lucien away."
- "King Bask stripped the racket of its power. Then he divided said power between five Power Stones, which he hid in different areas of this island."
- "To ensure that no one could ever restore Lucien's power to control people against their will, he hid the racket away in a secret room in this very temple."
- "Since then, many ages have passed. Time took its toll, and that room fell into ruin, breaking the seal. That's when the racket fell into new hands."
- "Lucien had no trouble at all controlling two men so wholly motivated by greed."
- "I am certain that fell racket will try to gather the five Power Stones and reclaim its original power."
- "Our only hope is for you to gather the five Power Stones before Lucien does!"
- "It can surely sense where its power resides. At some point in your journey, I am afraid you will have to face those who wield Lucien's might."
- "You must master the powerful tennis move called the Special Shot, which has been passed down for countless ages. Do that, and you may just prevail."
- "There is a contraption in this temple that allowed the ancient people of the Kingdom of Bask to train. Here you may discover new powers hidden within."
- "In order to use the Special Shot, you must first master a new power called the Zone Shot."
- "With your natural prowess, I'm sure you'll have no trouble detecting the star point, where easy-to-hit balls fall."
- "If you jump high at a star point, you'll be able to hit the ball to various spots on the court."
- "Fantastic!"
- "The power of the Zone Shot will damage your opponent's racket."
- "An opponent whose last racket breaks from excessive damage will be unable to continue, which means they will lose the match."
- "Perfect the Zone Shot, and the way you approach tennis will be forever changed. That is no exaggeration – merely fact."
- "If you think of a Zone Shot as an attack technique, there is also a defensive technique that can counter it."
- "It's called Zone Speed, and it sharpens your focus to the extreme, seemingly slowing the flow of time so that you can easily chase down the ball."
- "When your opponent sends a ball flying, allow all distractions to melt away! Get in the zone!"
- "Exceptional!"
- "Zone Speed is a great way to catch up to the ball And don't worry – using it won't reduce the power of your Zone Shot."
- "It's also advisable to work on your block timing so you can protect your racket from your opponent's Zone Shots."
- "Are you weary, Master Mario?"
- "Zone Shots and Zone Speed are both new to you, so try to keep in mind that they take a heavy toll on your energy."
- "To pull off such powerful moves, you'll need to find some way to increase your energy."
- "Your energy will increase gradually as you continue rallies and pull off Charge Shots."
- "There's also an incredibly powerful move called a Max Charge Shot that will build up your energy even more."
- "Fantastic!"
- "One really effective way of increasing your energy is with a Trick Shot."
- "A Trick Shot makes use of your own particular skill set to help you reach balls that are far away."
- "You can up your own enthusiasm or that of the crowd by making your opponent think they have the advantage and then easily returning the ball."
- "You should know that Trick Shots are risky, though. If your timing is off, you'll end up losing energy instead of earning it. It's all about timing!"
- "Your reaction time is fantastic!"
- "What a wonderful Trick Shot!"
- "OK then, I believe it's finally time for you to unleash a Special Shot."
- "You can increase your energy in various ways. Try to max it out so you can pull off your very own Special Shot!"
- "A Special Shot is a powerful move that can potentially change the momentum of an entire match."
- "When you unleash your stored-up energy, the mighty Special Shot that's unleashed will be something that's uniquely you!"
- "Mesmerizing!"
- "You have learned all I have to teach you. You are truly a first-rate tennis hero, Mario."
- "The five sacred stones are hidden in the forest, the mansion, the snow, the sea, and the flames. I beg of you... Please stop Lucien's return to power!"
- "Fear not, milady!"
- "Lucien thrives on taking advantage of weak minds. There is no reason for the strong willed to fear."
- "The only way to defeat the fell racket and free Luigi and the others is to face its power on the court and prevail."
- "Luigi with the power of Lucien... That will be something to behold. It's up to you, Mario. Show us all how much you've grown!"
- "Princess Peach and Princess Daisy... It's up to you to defeat Wario and Waluigi."
- "I told you not to fear! For my part, I'll divide King Bask's power and share it with all of you."
- "Before King Bask fell into his eternal slumber, he sealed Lucien away and entrusted that power to me, the rightful guardian of this island."
- "I have only a small bit of that power left... It is temporary, but now you, too, can share in that power."
- "Please... Find a way to defeat Lucien and restore peace to this island."
- "Mario... Marioooo..."
- "There isn't a moment to spare... You must find Bowser right away..."
- "Bowser is in the deepest part of the ruins. He intends to return the Power Stones to Lucien and take its power for his own..."
- "Mario... This world faces total devastation unless we stop him. The only person who stands a chance...is you... Please, Mario..."
- "You did it, Mario! You beat Bowser and Lucien!"
- "Now peace will return to this island and the spirit of King Bask can finally rest in peace!"
- "Thank you, Mario..."
Bowcien
- "Bwa ha ha! Glad you could make it, Mario! Lucien and I are now one, allowing me to finally achieve absolute power!"
- "Sure, you clearly leveled up a bit by going on your silly adventure, but you're no match for the almighty Bowcien!"
- "You don't really intend to fight me, do you? Bwa! Fine. I'll happily be your opponent. Show me what you've got!"
Bowser
- "Bwa ha ha! This racket has the power to rule over anyone! It's perfect for a king like me!"
- "This power is incredible! It makes me want to control anything even more than usual! It's exhilarating!"
- "Mario! Meet me at the spot where this all started. We'll determine who's the strongest once and for all. With this power, I can't lose! Not even to you!"
Daisy
- "I have a bad feeling about this. Wario and Waluigi were more suspicious than usual."
- "Toad... You know something, don't you? That winning smile can't fool me!"
- "Wait a minute! Are you suggesting that Luigi and the others are being controlled by an almighty tennis racket?!"
- "You're no stranger to adventure, so I'm sure you'll be fine. Please... just bring Luigi back safely!"
- "You're right! Let's go right now!"
- "And to make matters worse, the Power Stones are gone too!"
- "That Bowser makes me SO mad!"
- "I still can't believe a racket like that actually existed... One that could actually control people."
- "Haven't you learned anything?! Didn't you see that Mario beat Lucien anyway, despite its terrible power?"
Peach
- "A racket with mind-control powers? Oh goodness!"
- "It sounds crazy, but I believe it was the racket's grip tape that wrapped up poor Luigi. How unsettling."
- "Oh, of course! Bask Ruins in the desert is a relic of that once great kingdom. I hear archaeologists went there recently to research it."
- "Please don't put yourselves in danger. We'll be awaiting for your safe return!"
- "Yes, that's true. In that case, we leave this important task to you, dear friends."
- "Stop this, Bowser! That racket is dangerous!"
- "Please, listen to me! You're under Lucien's spell! You must release that racket right now!"
- "I know it wasn't easy, Mario, but you managed to save the day anyway. We are so very grateful to you!"
- "It's one thing to work hard and get stronger, but abusing such terrible power is never the right answer."
- "Strength only means anything if you use it to protect others, not to control them. So...hooray for Mario! Our hero!"
Toad
- "A legendary racket from the Temple of Bask? Could it be..."
- "Among those wall paintings is one that's... very strange, to say the least."
- "Besides, it's possible Luigi and the others will turn up while we're gone."
- "Congratulations, champs! What amazing teamwork!"
- "Hey! What's going on here? You two are acting mighty sketchy."
- "It's of a spooky racket floating in the sky with people bowing down before it. It almost looks like the racket is controlling them..."
- "Princess Peach and Princess Daisy, please allow Mario and me to go investigate on your behalf."
- "NO! Luigi!!"
- "Now for the best part! Let's take a look at that shiny trophy, and... Uh oh. Looks like we have some visitors."
- "Tennis was very popular in the Kingdom of Bask. The ruin walls are filled with paintings of people playing.
- "Wait, wait, wait! That sounds dangerous! Too dangerous for important diplomats like you two."
- "We can't rule it out! For now, maybe we can find out more at Bask Ruins."
- "We won't let you down. Come on, Mario! Let's head for that desert right away!"
- "Well... It's just a rumor, but they say this island was once home to the prosperous Kingdom of Bask."
- "I can't BELIEVE this. Bowser really ran off with Lucien..."
- "Bowser stole Lucien AND the five Power Stones containing the fragments of its power. That really puts a damper on our victory..."
- "Bowser was able to obtain Lucien's power and, just as the legend foretold, he challenged you to a once-in-a-lifetime battle against its terrible might."
- "But you were still able to prevail thanks to the strength you acquired on our adventure! You beat Bowser!"
- "The story of your victory will be told on this island for countless generations. You're a living legend!"
- "In any case, I'm happy we got Luigi back."
Toad commentary
- "We're at a critical point in the finals, folks! Victory hangs in the balance!"
- "The unstoppable team of Mario and Peach is unsurprisingly reigning surpreme!"
- "Bowser blew right through all of his energy in the first part of the match, and now he's in a pinch."
- "Now we're at a match point! Team Mario is one point away from taking the championship!"
- "We're coming to you live from Marina Stadium! It's finally time for the Lucien Cup to begin!"
- "The tournament came out of nowhere, but the stadium is jam-packed with enough tennis fans!"
- "That's right! Legend has it that Lucien is a mystical racket that has laid claim to this very island!"
- "Now Team Mario and Team Luigi have put their mighty Power Stones from the Kingdom of Bask on the line. History is about to be made, people!"
- "As for Lucien, this magical racket reportedly has the power to control people!"
- "Team Luigi has apparently been powered up by Lucien and is essentially unstoppable!"
- "Team Mario, has on the other hand, has...well, Mario! He's back from a wild adventure around this fair island and looks as confident as ever!"
- "As for the doubles match, Wario and Waluigi will be taking on...ooh, this is unexpected...actual royalty! Princess Peach and Princess Daisy!"
- "I don't know about you, but I have no idea how this will shake out! It's anyone's game!"
- "Finally! It seems the athletes competing in the doubles match have arrived!"
- "OK then! Let's take a look inside the stadium!"
- "Which team will make their presence known first?"
- "Look at that! Wario is the first to enter! His detestable past antics have earned him a hearty boo from the crowd!"
- "Next we have Princess Daisy! This peppy princess is making quite the entrance!"
- "The audience is booing wildly once again as Waluigi makes his entrance! He's as nasty as he is lanky!"
- "Capping off the exciting entrances is our very own Princess Peach! What a splendid lady! The crowd gives her a warm welcome!"
- "Now it's time for the doubles match portion of the Lucien Cup. It's Princess Peach and Princess Daisy against Wario and Waluigi!"
- "How will this unprecedented match play out? We're about to find out!"
- "Now it's time for the singles portion of the Lucien Cup! First up, we haaaave..."
- "LUIGI! This bro has attained great power while under the control of Lucien! That is SO Luigi. He's sure to show us some amazing moves!"
- "And of course, the man who needs no introduction..."
- "MARIO! The legendary hero of the Mushroom Kingdom! The champion of the people! The best of the best!!"
- "This will be the last match of the day, but let's be honest. Mario is sure to win, like always!"
- "Don't be so sure! Luigi has the power of Lucien the racket! Will he cause an upset by showing off some otherworldly tennis skills here today?"
- "The match is about to begin!"
- "And there you have it! Mario is the winner!"
- "Listen to that deafening roar from the crowd! We're all thrilled to pieces about Team Mario's victory!"
- "It was an amazing match that kept us on the edge of our seats! Truly incredible!"
- "Lucien has lost its power and Luigi is saved! Now it's time to present the five Power Stones to Mario..."
- "It's Bowser! Bowser has taken hold of Lucien!"
- "What in the world could this mean?!"
Waluigi
- "It's only suitable for the best of the best..."
- "We knew you'd steal another win."
- "Good work, Mario! Wahahaha!"
- "While you were busy fighting, we managed to sneak in and take the treasure!"
- "We'll be taking this Power Stone now. Try not to be sore losers!"
- "It's all been building to this. A final showdown for the Power Stones. To the stadium! It's time to settle the score!"
- "No kidding! We could've been the best players in the world with that thing!"
Wario
- "And nice guys that we are, we have a little gift to honor the new champions."
- "Congratulations, whahaha!"
- "Don't you like your gift, Mario? It's none other than the legendary racket from the Temple of Bask!"
- "This is the most powerful racket in the world."
- "The fort was too well guarded, so we just waited for you to find a way in and followed right behind you!"
- "I thought it was over when I touched the treasure chest and the statue started moving, but you took care of it for us. Thanks for that, gwahahaha!"
- "There are five Power Stones. We have two and you losers have three."
- "Ugh, did we really have to break it? What a waste!"
