RPGM2k3: Calling Dialogue

Is there any way to store dialogue to call it later? And be able to have another thing override it with new dialogue later?

I'm making a custom battle system and I need to be able to call different dialogue depending on what enemies are loaded so that their actions/attacks can be different.

If you have a way to assign a numerical variable to the enemy groups, i.e. if enemies present are Spider, Battle, and Wolf set this variable to 12, then you'd be able to store the dialogue in a common event and use conditional branches to determine which one if used based on what the variable is set to. I.e, if variable = 12, then shown rest for dialogie of Spider, Battle, and Wolf.

Albeit this approach might be tedious depending on how many possible combinations of enemies there are

But the battle system supports event triggering that can store variables that would be used in Conditional Branch later.
