Fern Sevilla
Fern VS Sprite
Later, loser! Fern Sevilla is the backup
Grass-type Gym Leader of Reborn, as well as one of the player's rivals, along with
Cain and
Victoria . He is a boastful narcissist who consistently insults and belittles the other characters, including his sister,
Florinia .
In the game Fern is confident to the point of arrogance, unwilling to admit any flaws or shortcomings. He is first encountered outside a factory in the Peridot Ward , where he's certain he's right about the meeting place and, after realizing he was wrong, is certain it wasn't his fault.
Shortly afterwards, he meets up with the player and Julia in front of the Mosswater Factory along with his sister. He attempts to be slightly more polite, but Julia's reaction to him makes it clear he can't keep the act up long, and he drops it right after entering.
After entering the factory, Florinia suggests that, to work towards both learning more about Team Meteor and working to stop the factory's pollution, the group split up, and the player is stuck with Fern, who often makes snarky comments on the way through.
Fern later appears in the Onyx Ward , determined to stop the player from challenging his sister, declaring them "not worthy". He blocks the entrance to the Onyx Trainer's School and orders students to attempt to keep the player out, to defend their pride. Many students remark that they're worried about what Fern will do to them when he finds out they have failed.
Fern continues his large-scale bullying by blocking the entrance to Florinia personally, claiming he is stopping the player from embarrassing themselves by even attempting to battle Florinia. "It's simple, really: You're a loser." After yet another defeat, he decides to take on the Reborn league, to attempt to show the player up.

Peridot Ward battle speech
Pre-battle speech
[Fern]: Uh, where are they?
[Fern]: They said to meet at the old factory.
[Fern]: Maybe they meant the other factory. They should've specified.
[Fern]: Hm?
[Fern]: Hey, what are you looking at?
[Fern]: Got a problem?
[Fern]: I hope not. You don't know who you're messing with.
[Fern]: Name's Fern. I'm the cool cat, and the top dog. Got it?
[Fern]: Cuz I don't think you do.
[Fern]: Get ready for a lesson in class!
Post-battle speech
[Fern]: Whatever, man. Don't have time for this.
[Fern]: Unlike you, I have places to be, and people waiting for me.
[Fern]: So what if you're doing the Gym League challenge?
[Fern]: You don't even have a badge yet? Talk about lame.
[Fern]: Maybe you should go work on that.
[Fern]: I, however, am required elsewhere.
[Fern]: Later, loser!
Onyx Trainer's School battle speech
Pre-battle speech
[Fern]: Sign. Those dumb kids can'y do anything right, can they?
[Fern]: Look, <player>, really, don't take it personally, you're just a loser.
[Fern]: Plain and simple. So really, by not letting you embarrass yourself in our gym, I'm doing YOU a favor.
[Fern]: And you won't even thank me! But it's fine. I got ya.
[Fern]: Now, just turn around, go home, and give up.
[Fern]: ...Yeah, I didn't really think you'd be smart enough to listen to me. Fine, have it your way, man.
Post-battle speech
[Fern]: ...
[Fern]: You're infuriating, really.
[Fern]: You think you're SO cool, just because you're doing the whole Gym League thing, huh?
[Fern]: ...No, you know what...
[Fern]: Two can play at that game, <player>.
[Fern]: If a second rate trainer like you can do it, then I won't have any problem sweeping the Reborn League.
[Fern]: I should thank you, <player>...
[Fern]: But I'm not going to. I've got things to do.
[Fern]: Later, loser!
Grand Hall battle speech
Pre-battle speech
[Fern]: Well look, if it isn't <player>, looking like a lost puppy as usual!
[Fern]: I was just telling Ame here about your little accident with the Beryl Gym Leader.
[Ame]: It's really unfortunate... I was worried about him for this exact reason...
[Fern]: Yeah, yeah, whatever. Look, tell Aya to be ready by the time I get there, okay?
[Ame]: Yeah. I'll call her now.
[Ame]: Oh, and hi <player>! Bye, <player>!
{Ame exits area}
[Fern]: You look confused. Well, more confused than normal.
[Fern]: See, every gym in the Reborn League needs a back-up, right? Like I'm the bacl-up for the Flobot. When she retires, I'll take over.
[Fern]: Well the same thing to true for the Poison guy He retired, well, in a sense, yanno, so now we're letting the back-up, Aya, know she's up.
[Fern]: Turns out she's some chick who lives in the wasteland southeast of the city...
[Fern]: Heh, but you won't be able to get out that way unless you have the key. And guess what? I do!
[Fern]: I've already got three badges, and it's about to be four. Man, that Shelly girl was a push over. It was like she wasn't even trying.
[Fern]: I mean she seemed she was gonna keel over and cry at any second, but hey, I'll tale the badge.
[Fern]: Anyway, I'm off. Good luck finding the key to the wasteland!
[Fern]: ...What, you wanna know where I got it?
[Fern]: Why would I tell...
[Fern]: You know what, no, fine. Fight me, <player>. If you win, I'll tell you. But like that's going to happen!
Post-battle speech
[Fern]: Talk about cheap... Whatever, man.
[Fern]: You wanna know about the key? Fine, I don't care.
[Fern]: So the new Poison Gym Leader's a girl who lives out in the wasteland, yeah? Well I got the key from her brother.
[Fern]: He's a real fruity lookin' guy. Decked out in purple, fishnets, looks more like a girl. Totally freaky. He wouldn't stop singing, either...
[Fern]: ...What, you know him?
[Fern]: ...Hah. I should've expected... You WOULD.
[Fern]: So yeah, he said he was going up to the Beryl Cemetery for something or other. If you want a key, go ask him.
[Fern]: Later, loser!
Wasteland Hideout battle speech
Pre-battle speech
[Aya]: Fine, you win.
[???]: I know.
{Fern enters the screen}
[Fern]: Oh look, it's <player>, late to the party as usual.
[Fern]: Hey, don't worry, bro. This Gym Leader?
[Fern]: She's fresh off the plate. Total noob.
[Aya]: Excuse you? I beat you once before.
[Fern]: Yeah, I was caught off guard by you fighting in Doubles.
[Fern]: Isn't that just a cheap way to cover for your lack of skill?
[Aya]: I can fight in whatever format I want.
[Aya]: Besides, it was my brother who--
[Lana]: AYA, YOU HAVE ANOTHER VISITOR!
[Aya]: REALLY, another one?
[Fern]: Can't blame people for wanting a free Badge.
[Aya]: Would you shut up please? Just leave me alone.
{Hardy enters the area}
[???]: ...Did I come at a bad time?
[Fern]: Oh, it's you.
[???]: Yea, it's me. What're you doin' here?
[Fern]: Sweepin' scrubs. How about you?
[???]: I heard there was a new Gym Leader, so I figured I'd come down and welcome her to the club.
[???]: You're Aya, yeah?
[Aya]: Um, yeah.
[???]: Name's Hardy. Reborn's Rock Leader, at your service!
[Hardy]: Yanno, the plan was to give you a warm welcome, but...
[Hardy]: Looks like you kinda already got a sour one, huh, mate?
[Fern]: You can keep the snide comments to yourself, thanks.
[Aya]: So you two know each other?
[Hardy]: 'Fraid so.
[Hardy]: I had the misfortune of being stuck in the same class as Fern in the Onyx Trainers' School.
[Fern]: In short, Hardy's jealous because I was the top dog and he was just another loser.
[Hardy]: Yea, that's it. Keep tellin' yourself that, mate.
[Fern]: Plus our sisters used to be close friends, so we happened to get dragged to places together sometimes.
[Hardy]: Aye. That's all in the past though.
[Aya]: Yeah, okay, you guys keep chit-chatting.
[Aya]: I'm gonna go heal up my Pokémon with the machine in the other room.
{Aya exits area}
[Fern]: So, <player>, you thinking of fighting Aya already?
[Fern]: Like I said, total pushover.
[Fern]: But it would be a shame if you came all the way down here and didn't have at least one good battle.
[Fern]: Lemme help you out there, huh?
Post-battle speech
[Hardy]: I think seein' Fern get beat is worth the trip out here in itself.
[Fern]: Stow it, rocky. I was going easy on <player>.
[Fern]: After all, I wouldn't want to make anyone cry.
[Hardy]: Whatever ya say, mate.
{Aya enters area}
[Aya]: All right. <player>, right?
[Aya]: If you're ready for your battle, let's get started.
[Fern]: I wanna see this.
[Hardy]: I can referee the match. I know how it goes from my own Gym.
{Aya goes to her gym position}
[Aya]: Ready when you are.
[Aya]: Go ahead and take your place and let's get this over with.
Route 1 battle speech
Pre-battle speech
[Fern]: Thought I heard a bug or something crawling around over here.
[Fern]: Guess I was right.
[Fern]: Sup. Come up here for the Gym?
[Fern]: You didn't know? There's a huge Castle to the east, serves as a Gym.
[Fern]: Sooo, I'm up to eight Badges now.
[Fern]: Hah, you're only at seven? Falling behind already.
[Fern]: And to think you started before me.
[Fern]: You think I'm wrong?
[Fern]: Try me.
Post-battle speech
[Fern]: Whatever. Not like it matters.
[Fern]: I think we all know who the real top dog is anyway.
[Fern]: Anyway yo, the dumb guards into Agate City are like, forever asleep or something, so I'm gonna try and track down that Normal Gym Leader.
[Fern]: Some dumb kid, I guess he ran away from his place in Lapis.
[Fern]: Later, loser!
Fiore Mansion battle speech
Pre-battle speech
[Sirius]: Enough. I believe we can end this farce now.
{Fern gets dragged to screen}
[Fern]: Hey, let the fuck go of me! What do you think you're doing?
Sis, help!
[Sirius]: The Bracelets for his life.
{Sound of glass breaking}
[Julia]: They ARE in the back!
[Florinia]: Just as calculated.
[Julia]: Leave it to me!
{Julia leaves area}
[Sirius]: What is your answer, Florinia?
[Fern]: Please! You can't just turn your back on me like this!
[Florinia]: Incorrect.
[Fern]: Wha-- what are you saying?!
[Florinia]: My position is unchanged.
[Fern]: Tch... That's cold, sis.
[Fern]: I mean, I know you're a wannabe robot, but I thought you at least had some feeling left.
{Blake gets kicked to area}
[Blake]: God damn, lady, calm the fuck down!
[Blake]: Seal it, Walrein!
{Walrein seals the opening with ice}
[Blake]: Oh, great. You again.
[Solaris]: Blake. Fern.
[Solaris]: You will remove this obstacle.
[Blake]: Whatever.
[Fern]: You got it, boss.
[Florinia]: "Boss”?
[Florinia]: Am I to correctly conclude that you are following instructions of this group?
[Fern]: Yeah, what about it?
[Fern]: The whole hostage thing was an act to get a rise out of you.
[Fern]: But even aside from that, turns out I'm the most valuable ally they could have.
[Fern]: I even gave them the whole layout of this place on the way over.
[Fern]: I always hated having to come here with you, but I guess it paid off, huh, Sis?
[Florinia]: ...Understood.
[Florinia]: This error shall be remedied at once.
[Fern]: Bring it on, Flobot. I ain't afraid of you.
Post-battle speech
[Florinia]: Regret is unnecessary.
[Florinia]: Contrariwise, your defeat is a marked success.
[Florinia]: Do consider what procedural mistakes you have committed and remedy them immediately.
[Florinia]: Specifically, your allegiance to this organization.
If you did not defeat Solaris’ Garchomp on Pyrous Mountain
[Solaris]: You seem to have grown significantly, <player>.
[Fern]: Tch, they're nothing.
[Florinia]: Do you prefer we expound on your failure?
[Fern]: My failure? You're the one who's doing this!
This is your fault!
[Blake]: Well, so much for proving yourself, huh, kid.
[Fern]: Tch. Shut up, you're only slowing me down.
[Blake]: Keep telling yourself that.
[Fern]: I don't need to. I'm out.
[Fern]: I'll meet up with you guys later.
[Sirius]: So much for proving himself.
[Solaris]: Nonetheless, I will deal with these two myself.
[Orderly]: Commander, allow me to assist you!
If you defeated Solaris’ Garchomp on Pyrous Mountain
[Solaris]: I see. <player> remains as troublesome as before.
[Solaris]: I should have eliminated this obstacle when I had the chance.
[Fern]: Please, you're giving <player> too much credit. Blame my sister.
[Fern]: Look, Sis. I don't know what you think you're accomplishing there, but we're changing the world.
[Fern]: And in our New World, guess who's gonna be at the top?
[Fern]: Not you, Flobot!
[Fern]: You should've turned when you had a chance!
[Fern]: We could've done this together!
[Fern]: But YOU threw that away!
[Fern]: You didn't even care about me!
[Fern]: What if my life really had been in danger, huh?
[Fern]: Some sister you are.
[Fern]: You really are dead inside.
[Fern]: You really are just a stupid robot now, aren't you?
[Fern]: Isn't that what you wanted to be?!
[Florinia]: …Incorrect.
[Fern]: Don't try to lie!
[Fern]: You're just weak, so you hide from yourself!
[Florinia]: ...Incorrect...
[Fern]: And you're not afraid to hurt me if that's what it takes, huh?
[Fern]: You're just selfish. And a coward.
[Fern]: Hmph. I'm done here.
[Fern]: I'll meet up with you guys later.
[Fern]: In the meantime, do whatever you want to her.
[Fern]: I have no sister anymore.
[Solaris]: ...You heard the boy, Sirius.
[Solaris]: Remove her.
[Sirius]: Seviper, Poison Fang!
{Florina gets poisoned by Seviper}
[Solaris]: I will deal with <player> myself.
{Julia bust through the ice}
[Julia]: Ka-powww!
[Julia]: Hey, you! That wasn't very nice!
[Blake]: Holy shit, woman, settle down.
[Blake]: What are you on?
[Julia]: Coffee!!!
{Julia pushes Blake over the railing}
[Blake]: Hey, what the fuck!
{Julia notices Florinia and runs over to her}
[Julia]: Rini!!!
[Julia]: You did this, didn't you!?
[Julia]: Electrode, get ‘em!
{Electrode knocks out Seviper}
[Sirius]: Gah--
[Orderly]: Commander, allow me to assist you!
Trainer sprite VS sprite Overworld sprite
His name, Fern, is after a group of flowerless, seedless plants.
Aya and Cain's mother calls him rude after his battle with Aya.
Fern always wears a buttplug, which is why a bunch of shit spills from his mouth.
In the online league Fern often quit halfway through a battle in the online league and did a rematch with a different team. Florinia often did a league challenge and kept restarting just to annoy Fern.
