While searching through a pile of missions, trying to squeeze as many as I could into a long holiday weekend, I came across another mission that easily caught my eye and decided on a whim to help out. The mission explained to me that pirates are wreaking havoc on departing ships coming out of slateport, I figured this would be the perfect vacation mission for me before my break is over so I rush up to my room and begin to pack. I decide to pack for a one day trip spending the majority of the day with the actual mission part and possibly spending the night relaxing on the beach, after stuffing my backpack with all kinds of beach toys I walked over to my laptop and accessed my storage system bringing with me Treeko, Vulpix, Tropius, Feebas and Shellder then I headed for the door. Once outside I sent out Tropius then pulled out a map of Hoenn from my bag and showed him the exact location and the beach I planned to land on then I climbed from his right wing to his back and prepared for a very bumpy ride.

Once at Slateport’s beach I was able to see the effects of the pirates arrival in the area, looking around the whole beach was deserted and off in the distance I can see the pirate’s ship harassing a freight ship just departing from the harbor, at that moment I figured I must get right on my mission without any time to spare. So I returned Tropius to his ball and looked around for anything I can use to cross the water. After I few minutes of searching I found a row boat with a few small holes on the bottom, examining the boat carefully I said to myself “this should get me over to their ship… not sure about back but oh well worth a try..”

So I take the boat out of its sandy grave and I tie a strand of rope to the front then sent out Shellder into the shallow water and tied the other end to him. After the rope was tightly secured on both ends I hopped back into the boat and yelled over to Shellder to start moving forward towards the ship. After about 10 minutes at sea I arrived at the bottom of the pirate ship, returned Shellder to his ball and just as the row boat was beginning to sink I jumped from my damaged craft to an anchor’s chain that was hanging off the ship. After climbing up the chain about half way I was able to swing into a window in the side of a ship, after getting my balance back I looked around the room that I crept into and I seemed to had ended up in the captain’s quarters, but there was no captain in sight so I found my way to the deck of the ship and once again no one was around. The first thing that came to my mind was they already moved over to the freight ship and I looked over the side of the ship to find my assumption was right, as I looked down I seen three sets of climbing rope leading over to the nearby ship. I stood there momentarily looking at the ropes trying to figure an easier way to get to the ship without being to obvious so Tropius was out of the question, the only choice I had left was to climb across the ropes that were already set up but I wasn’t sure or not if it was completely safe. Just when I was ready to jump to the rope I heard a crashing noise coming from the other ship and two pirates came into view carrying large boxes of cargo more than likely returning to their ship, but as soon as I noticed them they caught eye of me and dropped their loot and came running stealthily across the ropes back to their ship. As soon as they reached the deck they pulled out 2 pokeballs each and challenged me to leave their ship. I agreed to their terms and sent out Vulpix and Treeko and they at the same time each of them sent out one pokemon, a Corphish and a Seadra and the battle commenced. Treeko was able to get the speed advantage and use bullet seed on Seadra hitting consecutively 3 times, and Vulpix was able to follow up with energy ball Koing Seadra but leaving Corphish able to attack Vulpix with Crab hammer severely lowering her health.

The pirate who lost the Seadra then sent out his second Pokemon, Raticate and Treeko was ready to attack again this time with a Brick Break attack on Raticate and Vulpix quickly followed with another energy ball but this time on Corphish. Raticate then used Iron Tail on Vulpix knocking her to extremely low health then Corphish followed up with Swords Dance in attempt to raise its attack power. Raticate Corphish and Vulpix now all with very low health and the opponents with one pokemon left otherwise I tried to clear the opponent of pokemon in this turn having Vulpix use flamethrower on Raticate knocking it out and having Treeko use Dragon Claw on Corphish also knocking it out. The pirates then sent out their last pokemon, a Kingler and seemed to be getting very nervous. Before I began to attack I withdrew Vulpix so she wouldn’t be injured for the inevitable battles later and I sent out Tropius so I had another type advantage then I ordered Treeko to use Bullet seed which hit three consecutive times dealing decent damage but it countered with brine dealing moderate damage to Treeko in return. Tropius just getting on the field this turn had no time to prepare an attack so it was back to Treeko to attack with Ariel ace knocking Kingler’s health down even further, Kingler then countered with Crab hammer which was a Critical hit on Treeko but still not enough to knock him out. Tropius then used Magical leaf ensuring a hit and a KO defeating both pirates. After the battle the two pirates tried to run and hide somewhere else in the ship but before they could Tropius unleashed a great Whirlwind attack blowing both of them overboard into the watery depths.

I was then still left with the decision to face my fears of the water and climb across the ropes to the other ship or stay back and get surprise attacked again. I then without any thought ran for the edge ripped off a piece of my shirt and zip lined across to the other ship with my eyes closed the whole time. Once I tumbled onto the deck of the other ship I opened my eyes and looked for any other sign of pirates, that’s when I heard yet another crashing noise coming from a storage section of the ship so I sent out Sneasel and Treeko preparing for another battle and I ran toward the noise. Once in the storage room I seen the pirate captain commanding another goon to tie up what looked like the captain of the freight ship that I was on.
Sneasel then without any command tried to be a hero and ran over and started hacking at the rope that the captain was tied up with, as soon as that happened the pirate and the pirate captain obviously noticed me and I challenged them to a battle for control over the ship and they accepted without hesitation. Sneasel then ran back to my side and Treeko stepped forward still slightly injured from his last battle. The pirate then sent out an Arbok and the pirate captain sent out a Seviper. I had an easy speed advantage but they obviously had more power on their side, Sneasel was able to hit Arbok first with the first move, Ice punch and deal decent damage right from the start. Sneasel’s ice punch was quickly followed by Treeko’s Faint attack on Arbok leaving Arbok open to be Koed by one more attack. But both Arbok and Seviper countered with Poison Fang on Treeko easily Koing him. I then sent out Shellder to replace Treeko and ordered Sneasel to use Ice Shard insuring the first hit on Arbok Koing it. From the looks of it that was the only pokemon that pirate had that was probably why he was staying with that captain the whole time because he was so weak, so it was just me and the captain left and it was his Seviper’s turn to make a move. Seviper then tried to use Poison Fang on Shellder but before it could Shellder withdrew into its shell protecting it from the attack and also harming Seviper’s mouth. Sneasel then used Icy Wind slowing down Seviper enough for Shellder to rush over and clamp on its tail dealing decent combined damage leaving it fairly injured. Seviper was then able to bite the exposed area of Shellder’s shell dealing some damage, but Shellder has great defense otherwise not allowing any physical attacks to do any major damage. Sneasel was then able to quickly finish off Seviper with a final Ice Shard attack and Shellder let go of its tail and returned to my side. Then the captain sent out an Octillery that Sneasel quickly went after with a poison jab attack not poisoning it but still doing damage. Sneasel still at close range got taunted by a Swagger attack confusing him to not attacking but riling him up enough to raise his attack power. Shellder then from a distance then used Supersonic also confusing the Octillery. Both Sneasel and Octillery tried to attack but both failed miserably leaving Shellder able to attack again, this time at a closer range enabling him to trap Octillery in a Whirlpool in the center of the room dealing continuous damage. Sneasel then came out of his confusion but his attack power was still heightened allowing him to rush into the whirlpool and deal a devastating Shadow Claw attack Koing Octillery and breaking the Whirlpool, Sneasel and Shellder then returned back to my side of the room and awaited the pirate captain’s final pokemon.

The captain with a nervous look on his face took his last pokemon out of his pocket and threw it at the center of the floor revealing a powerful looking Huntail but also couldn’t be to great out of water so I didn’t worry to much otherwise. Sneasel was able to maneuver behind Huntail’s enlarged jaws and deliver a devastating Brick break attack to Huntail’s abdominal area, But before Sneasel was able to move out of the way Huntail had already swung his tail around and pinned Sneasel to the cold ground. Huntail to occupied with Sneasel did not notice Shellder sneaking closer preparing an attack and as soon as Huntail turned around it was too late and Shellder had already fired an ice beam straight in its face freezing it solid. Sneasel was then able to get up and fire multiple Ariel ace blows before it defrosted almost koing it. Just as it defrosted Shellder was ready to attack again with Aura beam slowing Huntail down even further. Huntail tried to counter with Aqua tail but by the time it swung its body around Shellder was across the room readying the final blow. Sneasel backed away the final turn allowing Shellder to finish him off, Shellder then after charging his attack momentarily fired a extreme Ice beam attack Koing the Huntial and defeating the captain. Although pirates are thieves they are very honest people that keep to their word so the captain and his assistant in crime left back for their ship after the battle while I was untying the fright ship captain. After I knew the captain and the rest of the crew was safe I went out to the deck to make sure all of the pirates left and just as I thought they did. Seeing their ship off in the distance I figured I should leave them with a parting gift so I sent out Tropius and returned Shellder and Sneasel and flew back over the pirate ship and ordered Tropius to shoot off his Bullet Seed attack into the bottom of the ship sinking it in minutes ^_^. After I watched the ship sink laughing so hard I returned back to the beach where it all started and just fell off Tropius into a tide pool feeling like I could just fall asleep there.

Laying down in the tide pool looking up at the stars I feel something moving underneath my back, then I feel a pinching pain so I jump up and flail around in circles trying to knock whatever it was off. I turned around and saw a riled up Clamperl in the sand who seemed to want to challenge me. I thought to myself that I didn’t catch anything on this mission yet why not give it a try…. So I sent out Feebas and prepared for a simple battle.
I let the Clamperl take the first attack just to see its strength and all it did was hide in its shell and raise its defense. I thought to myself “is this thing even worth catching…” then I ordered Feebas to use Hypnosis putting it to sleep and it opened up its shell unknowingly leaving it wide open for attacks now. Feebas then folowed up with ice beam freezing Clamperl’s Shell into the sand immobilizing it. Clamperl then woke up and used water gun on Feebas doing barely any damage so I decided to put it out of its misery and I had Feebas use Toxic on it dealing further damage and inflicting a status condition perfect for catching. So I pulled a Great ball out of my bag and threw it at Clamperl, It didn’t seem to fight back much and after shaking a few times the ball stopped moving and I was ready to return back to HQ for a long nap. So I grabbed the pokeball out of the sand, place it in my pocket and I let out Tropius, get on, then give him the orders to go back to HQ.

OK, here's the deal the last time we fought Tentacruel Prime, we managed to find a way to injure it. I want to continue this and see if we can find a way to get rid of it for good. We probably won't banish it today, but I hope that we'll give it one heck of a head ache.

Tentacruel Prime is now in the Ocean between Kanto and Johto, so let's get going.
