Nils, Ren and Firenze had arrived in Eyon City and were looking for the ship the cruise was on when they noticed someone sitting on a bench with a sad look.
"Hey," said Ren, "That's Libby." "I wonder why she's sad," and then Ren went over to Libby and was followed by Nils and Firenze. "Hey Libby, what's wrong," Ren asked Libby.
"Well,' said Libby, "There's a cruise that's leaving soon and I want to be on it but I couldn't get a ticket."
"Do the tickets look like this one," asked Nils as he showed Libby the ticket that Boyd gave him.
"That's the one," said Libby, "Are you going on the cruise?"
"We are," answered Firenze, "And you can come with us if you want because all of the tickets let up to four people on."
"Then count me in," said Libby who was quickly cheered up and the four trainers then found the ship the cruise was on.
"Ticket please," asked a man who was obviously a staff member of the cruise.
"Here you go," said Nils as he gave the staff member the ticket and the staff member let the group get on the ship.
"Wow," said an amazed Libby once the group had entered the ship, "It looks so big." "This cruise should be very fun.
After several more passengers entered the ship, the ship departed and everyone started to have fun. Nils, Ren, Firenze and Libby all started having fun by playing Pokemon Bingo, eating lots of food that looked interesting, and swimming in a pool.
At one point, the captain of the ship appeared and had gotten everyone's attention.
"Attention passenger," said the captain, "I hope you are all having fun on this cruise." "However I expect you all having more fun because the battlefields are now open so you can now have battles with each other." "Furthermore, You now have the option of battling me and if you win, you will choose between having a Leaf Stone, a Fire Stone, a Water Stone or a Thunder Stone as your prize."
"Yay," said Libby, "I have a chance to evolve my Weepinbell." "All I need is to defeat the captain in a battle and he'll give me a Leaf Stone."
"Well good luck," said Nils
Libby then signed up for a battle against the captain and waited in line for her turn. When it was her turn, Libby got on the battlefield and faced the captain and his Pachirisu who the captain was using against all of his opponents.
"Go Weepinbell," said Libby who sent out a Weepinbell.
"I see you intend to get a Leaf Stone to evolve your Weepinbell," said the captain, "But I won't let you get it that easily."
"It wouldn't be fun if you did," said Libby, "Use Acid," and Weepinbell used the move of choice.
"Use Nuzzle," said the captain and after getting hit by Acid, Pachirisu used the selected attack which paralyzed Weepinbell.
"Acid again," said Libby and Weepinbell used another Acid which hit Pachirisu.
"Electro Ball," said the captain and Pachirisu gave Weepinbell a lot of damage from the chosen attack.
"Slam," said Libby and Weepinbell used the selected attack which did lots of damage because the two earlier Acids lowered Pachirisu's defense.
"Hyper Fang," said the captain and Pachirisu hit Weepinbell with the chosen move.
"Razor Leaf while it's still on you," said Libby and Weepinbell attacked Pachirisu with Razor Leaf and knocked out Pachirisu.
"Good as always Pachirisu," said the captain as he returned Pachirisu. "Well, since you beat me, you can now have one of these four stones," and the captain showed Libby a Leaf Stone, a Fire Stone, a Water Stone and a Thunder Stone.
"Thank you Captain," said Libby as she grabbed the Leaf Stone. "Well Weepinbell, the time for you to become Victreebel has finally come."
"Weepinbell," said Weepinbell who was jumping for joy.
Libby then gave Weepinbell the Leaf Stone and Weepinbell then evolved into Victreebel.
"That was a good battle Libby," said Nils as he, Ren and Firenze walked over to Libby.
"Thanks," said Libby.
"Hey," said a teenager that came out of nowhere, "Can I please have a battle with you," he asked Nils.
"Ok," answered Nils and the group and the teenager went to to an empty battlefield. "Go Machoke," and Machoke was sent out.
"Go Sandslash," said the teenager and a Sandslash was sent out.
Before Nils could tell Machoke which move to use, Machoke went for Sandslash and attacked with Low Sweep.
"Did you just learn Low Sweep Machoke," asked Nils.
"Machoke, "answered Machoke.
"Use Gyro Ball," said the teenager and Sandslash used the chosen move which gave Machoke plenty of damage due to being slow.
"Use Karate Chop," said Nils and Machoke attacked Sandslash with the selected move.
"Crush Claw," said the teenager and Sandslash started to use Crush Claw.
"Use Revenge," said Nils and after getting hit by Crush Claw, Machoke attacked Sandslash with Revenge which knocked out Sandslash.
"Not bad," said the teenager, "You're the tenth trainer that I battled on this ship today but the first one that I lost to."
"Thanks," said Nils and the teenager then left.
"I want to go back to the pool before we do any more battle," said Ren.
"I guess we can do that," said Libby and the group continued to have fun on the cruise.
