Chapter 10: Lord of the Wingull
I went straight to Mr Briney first thing in the morning. "Yar be ready?" he asked as a white avian Pokemon swooped down onto his shoulder.
Wingull
027
Water/Flying Type
Seagull Pokémon
2'00" (0.6 m)
20.9 lbs (9.5 kg)
Wingull rides updrafts rising from the sea by extending its long and narrow wings to glide. This Pokémon's long beak is useful for catching prey.
"This girls name is Peeko. I found her stranded on the beach one day with a broken wing and we have become inseparable since day one. Okay. The boat is going through some last-minute check-ups then we should be on our way to Dewford Island."
After about half an hour, the boat was ready. I put on my life vest and got in. "Let us set sail for Dewford!"
The boat sped up and skimmed along the ocean surface. I held on for dear life as the wind hit my face as if it were using Take Down. "So, how are you liking Hoenn?" I mentioned it was alright but I missed Johto. "I've been to a lot of places young lad. I was once a Kanto boy myself, but I sailed around the world and settled here in Hoenn after I rescued Peecko."
I did mention all the things that Hoenn had that Johto didn't. "Brendan. I know you are struggling. But how about you appreciate Hoenn for what it is rather than disliking it for what it isn't? Hoenn is a fantastic place where more than anywhere, people, nature and Pokemon live in harmony. Ooh, yar comes my favourite bit."
He suddeny sped up. From the water, a Gyarados leapt out of the ocean and over the boat.
Gyarados
Water/Flying Type
Atrocious Pokemon
21'04" (6.5 m)
518.1 lbs (6.5 m)
Once Gyarados goes on a rampage, its ferociously violent blood doesn't calm until it has burned everything down. There are records of this Pokémon's rampages lasting a whole month.

"Gyarados are usually angry beasts. But if you leave some Pokemon alone, then there will be no problem. Dewford ho!" he yelled, as I could see Dewford Island coming up in the distance.
I got off, about to feel sick. "Mr Stone told you that you don't need to deliver the letter to Steven immediately. There is a Gym in Dewford Town, beat that before you do anything else. After you've overcome your seasickness. I'll be back in 3 days, then I will take you south of Slateport City." He revved up the engine and went off.
