Waluigi, Petey Piranha, and Gooper Blooper all prepared themselves for the race towards the ocean as Porygon Z simply flipped over and over, laughing with excitement. Brewy and Stevie both watched with joy as they cheered, while Bowser Junior sipped his watermelon juice, seeing if Waluigi could put up a good challenge for Porygon Z. After an exact minute of warming up, Porygon Z dived right into the warm salty sea, with Waluigi splashing right in as Petey and Gooper followed.
The bright blue salty ocean reflected the sun's bright rays as the clear blue sky overlapped the beautiful beach. Several crabs scuttled towards the wooden yellow-colored pier as they watched the race ensue. Waluigi was swimming with grace as he was very close to Porygon Z. Petey Piranha tried swimming, but he was the slowest of the trio, with Gooper Blooper swimming ahead. Waluigi watched in shock as Gooper sped right past him, the squid in his element as he even passed Porygon Z. Porygon Z's eyes widened with shock as Gooper continued swimming at a fast pace. Gooper suddenly dived deep into the water, heading downward as Porygon Z continued soaring at the surface of the water.
Waluigi changed his swimming tactics as he pushed the water using his arms, his legs doing the exact same thing as the desperately tried catching up to Porygon Z. Two red-and-yellow colored fish jumped out of the ocean, hitting Waluigi in the face, which knocked him underwater. Petey Piranha noticed this, and he dove under the surface, grabbing Waluigi's legs as he tried to pull him up. However, he and Waluigi noticed that Porygon Z also dived under the surface, heading southward towards several bright coral reefs. Understanding, Petey Piranha chuckled Waluigi, the tall lanky mustached man spiraling past Porygon Z as he collided into several rocks, before landing in the underwater sand. Waluigi groaned as he spat out some of the sand, looking up to see Porygon Z zipping right past him. Pounding his right fist in the sand, Waluigi got his act together as he swam towards Porygon Z, but noticed that he was running out of air. He tried swimming towards the surface, but gasped as he was several inches too late, closing his eyes as he was knocked out.
"Ugh... argh..." Waluigi muttered as he coughed a bit, opening his eyes, to see Petey Piranha, Gooper Blooper, and Porygon Z all looking at him. Stretching his long, lanky arms, he scratched his head in confusion as he asked, "Wha? What happened... where are we" He looked around, his jaw literally dropping in disbelief as he was in a coral reef village, its bright colors and lovely atmosphere filled with plenty of Nokis.
"Well, you were knocked out while you were racing Porygon Z, so we had one of the Nokis supplement us with special gils to allow us to breathe," Petey explained as he pointed to Gooper and Porygon Z. "Gooper and Porygon Z don't need it because Porygon Z is a virus Pokemon, and Gooper can easily survive in water."
Gooper chuckled as he folded his tentacles, closing his eyes. "It would be true. After all, I am a squid." He pointed out.
Porygon Z nodded as he approached Waluigi. "You did a pretty swell job, despite me winning. I guess you could say it was rather a wet victory on my part," He joked as he received odd glances from both Petey and Gooper.
Waluigi took off his purple cap as he scratched his brown hair. "But wait, if I lost the race, then how are we-"
"Oh Mr. Waluigi, you don't have to worry," A blue-shelled male doctor Noki stated as he approached Waluigi, patting him on the forehead, "We are well aware of your adventure, but it would be a bit best if you stayed here for a little while."
Waluigi rubbed the back of his neck as he blinked. "You mean rest up?" He added as he looked to his left, seeing several happy Nokis staring at him. "Well..."
Gooper Blooper clapped his front tentacles together as he nodded in agreement. "I agree! Come on, guys, let's go rest up some bit!" He suggested as he followed the Nokis.
Petey and Porygon Z glanced at Waluigi, then at each other as they shrugged and followed Gooper's trail. Getting onto his feet, Waluigi decided to follow his three fellows friends as he went along with having a little break.
