WarioWare: Smooth Moves

• "Good to meet you! People call me Young Cricket. As part of my kung-fu training, Master Mantis and I travel around in search of new stances."
• "Young Cricket here. Looks like there are lots of forms to learn around here. Master Mantis seems to like this place, so I think we'll stick around for a while."
• "In order to become a kung fu master, you gotta learn lots of secret stances. So far, I've learned the Tug-of-War, the Waiter and the Elephant. I'll show them to you, but you can't tell Master Mantis that I did, OK?"
• "Legend has it that long ago, there lived a mysterious martial arts master named Master Wii. I wonder what he's up to now..."
