Pokémon: Start with an Admiral Crab!

Chapter 298: Ship accident! Fishing at the seaside!

"Miss Joy, we are so lucky to have your help on board."

On the Sea Flame Horse, First Mate Ying Tao and the ship's doctor Mr. Dai Ke thanked Shizuka one after another.

"This is what I should do, but the medicine on the ship has run out. How far is our first island's dock?"

Shizuka wiped the sweat from her forehead and asked with a worried expression as she looked at the injured passengers and Pokémon that filled the infirmary.

"Lucky..."

Beside the few people, Jigglypuff, who had used the egg-laying trick too many times, was so tired that he didn't want to move at all.

"Pico..."

Picosi also squinted his eyes and sat on the ground back to back with Jigglypuff.

If you look closely, you can see that this guy has fallen asleep on the spot.

"We are very close. The ferry will arrive in the Seven Islands area tomorrow afternoon. The captain has already contacted the staff at the dock to send a marine patrol team to pick us up."

Before coming to the infirmary, First Mate Ying Tao had already visited the captain's room and learned about the latest sailing conditions.

"This time, we were accidentally attacked by wild Gyarados that were migrating together, causing damage to the hull in many places..."

"Although the propulsion system has been restored to normal operation after emergency repairs, the steering gear was severely damaged...

Currently we can only rely on water Pokémon to guide us."

First Mate Ying Tao explained.

"Water Pokémon? Do you need any more help? I have Swamplord who can help."

Shizuka asked as she pulled out a super ball from her waist.

"No, no, Miss Joy, you've helped enough. The sailors have enough Pokémon to take turns to tow the boat, and there are also several enthusiastic trainers participating..."

First Mate Yingtao didn't feel comfortable bothering the other party any more. Shizuka's ability to rescue the Pokémon and passengers injured in the attack had greatly relieved the pressure on the ship's doctor.

In this accident, it was a blessing in disguise to have the help of professional doctors at the Pokémon Center.

"Yes, Miss Joy, the wounded have been treated almost completely now. You should go and rest first, and leave the rest to me."

The ship's doctor, Dai Ke, was a short, thin old man with a white beard. Normally, there were rarely large-scale injuries and illnesses requiring treatment on the ship, so it didn't matter even if the old man had less physical strength.

But this time he almost broke his bones, luckily Joey and her Pokémon were there.

"Well then... Jigglypuff, Pixie, you guys have worked hard."

Shizuka didn't force it and immediately put the Pokémon back into the Poké Ball, intending to return to her cabin to catch up on some sleep.

But being busy from noon to night... one cannot go to bed on an empty stomach, so Shizuka first went to the restaurant and asked for three cups of hot milk, waking up the tired Picosi and Jellyfish.

After filling their stomachs together, they returned to the cabin to rest.

"Tomorrow afternoon... Oh~~ I'm so sleepy..."

Shizuka crawled into bed sleepily, looking forward to the moment when the ship would dock.

……

"Oh hoo hoo~Finally there's movement!"

Wang Yao excitedly pulled up the fishing rod. The huge force coming from underwater made the little dragon under him slide its four fins uncontrollably to stabilize its body.

"Shouldn't you swim to the surface immediately after you find prey? Why are you running underwater?"

Wang Yao quickly tightened the fishing line and felt the strength in his hands growing stronger and stronger.

"Could it be that he was eaten by the other party?"

Wang Yao muttered.

Logically speaking, that shouldn't be the case. After all, the Lantern Fish can be considered a water-attributed civil war phantom god.

What's more, this sea area is its habitat, and it is unlikely that there will be anyone who can kill it instantly.

While thinking about it, Wang Yao found that the power transmitted from the fishing line suddenly dissipated again.

Apparently the underwater lantern fish had escaped from the mysterious prey and was heading towards the surface.

Soon, large bubbles gurgling appeared underwater, and the lantern fish hurriedly jumped out of the water and jumped onto the back of the dragon.

"lu...lucky..."

The lantern fish stretched out its legs, sat on the dragon's back, and gasped heavily.

It's really not easy to get a few delicious dried fish.

This time, I actually attracted that weird guy...

Fortunately, its lightning trick worked as always, otherwise it would have been impossible to return.

Bang-!

The next second, a wave appeared on the water surface and a round body emerged from the water.

"This is?"

Wang Yao and the mysterious Pokémon looked into each other's eyes.

It has an aqua blue body and a small crown on its head. It looks like a combination of a jellyfish and a squid. There are male and female Chubby "I think it's called Chubby, right? It's really rare..."

Wang Yao did not take out the illustrated book because he was afraid that the other party would escape.

Moreover, he had heard sailors mention this kind of Pokémon before, and it seemed to often live near shipwrecks.

"Is there a sunken ship under the water?"

Wang Yao's curiosity was aroused.

But now is not the time to explore the seabed!

"Use the water gun!"

Wang Yao commanded Xiao Chenglong to provoke the other party. After all, it would be terrible if this guy ran away.

"babble!"

The little dragon opened its mouth and spit out a swift stream of water, hitting the chubby big head.

"Toot~" (from the chubby voice in Pokémon Super Wish, episode 78, "Hachiku appears! The Holy Mountain of Vulcan Moth!!")

The chubby jelly-like body that was hit by the water gun trembled and let out a joyful cry.

"Water storage properties? It's really obvious..."

Wang Yao is no longer a rookie who has just debuted, and he can still recognize some common characteristics.

"Dudu!"

Although he was not injured, he naturally had to fight back after being attacked.

Bang-!

A stream of water several times thicker than that of a water gun shot straight towards Chenglong.

Wow!

Water splashed and the little dragon kept retreating under the push of the strong water flow.

"Oh my god, the blanket is soaked."

Wang Yao released the Xiaochenglong's neck and picked up the lantern fish from the sea.

"Hey~"

Xiao Chenglong shook his head and was not injured.

"What a coincidence! My dragon also has the water storage characteristic."

Wang Yao twisted his clothes and said with a smile.

"Eh? I forgot to check it before. You also have the water storage characteristic, right?"

Wang Yao asked the lantern fish.

"lucky?"

The lantern fish shook the two big light bulbs on its head and looked at Wang Yao blankly with its pair of cross-patterned eyes.

Apparently it doesn't know what features are yet.

However, Wang Yao had guessed wrong. Lantern fish with water storage characteristics were very rare in the population, and the one he caught had the common characteristic of electricity storage.

"Forget it, no matter what, you should join the battle!"

Wang Yao shook his head and pointed at Chubby and shouted.

"One hundred thousand volts!"

……

There was silence for a few seconds.

The lantern fish lay motionless on the dragon's back.

"You still don't know how to do this?"

Wang Yao frowned.

"Then use electric shock, discharge, thunder, or any other electric-type trick will do!"

Wang Yao used the hosting model.

"lucky!"

The glowing tentacles on the lantern fish's head began to rapidly accumulate energy.
