Chapter 87: Doc Octillery

With Gyarados in tow, it was time to head to Cinnabar Island.

I hopped on and used Surf. I passed by a Male Swimmer. "I would be careful if I were you" he told me. "There have been reports of people and Pokémon being dragged down suddenly".

I asked him more as we swam along. "We are still trying to figure out what it-"

Suddenly, he seemed to be dragged underwater. Shocked, I dived under to see a red Pokémon with tentacles grabbing the poor Swimmer.

Octillery

173

Water Type

Jet Pokémon

2'11" (0.9 m)

62.8 lbs (28.5 kg)

It traps enemies with its suction-cupped tentacles then smashes them with its rock hard head.

Evolved from Remoraid at Lv 25.

I distracted Octillery which loosened its grip and allowed the Swimmer to get away.

We stopped on some dry land. "I haven't introduced myself" said the Swimmer. "I'm Lughan. I've been investigating what's been causing all this. It turns out it's an Octillery."

I suggested he tried catching it. "Well it's quite strong, but I don't see why not." He took out a blue Pokeball. "A Lure Ball. I got this from Kurt in Azelea Town. It works on fished Pokémon. I'll try getting it out with that method."

I watched him take out his rod. It started shaking wildly. Lughan yanked it and Octillery attacked.

"Go Staryu!" he shouted.

Staryu

167

Water Type

Star Shape Pokémon

2'07" (0.8 m)

76.1 lbs (34.5 kg)

Even if its body is torn, it can regenerate as long as the glowing central core remains intact.

Staryu started with Swift, which hurt Octillery a bit. Then, Octillery fired a beam at Staryu. "It's Octazooka, Octillery's main move!" shouted Lughan. Staryu came back with another Swift. Octillery then used Psybeam. Staryu was confused.

Lughan recalled Staryu and sent out Corsola. Octillery used Psybeam again, but Corsola took it. Corsola used Spike Cannon which hit Octillery 4 times. Octillery used Octazooka, which almost knocked out Corsola. Corsola used another Spike Cannon. Octillery was getting weaker. Octillery used another Octazooka and knocked out Corsola.

Lughan sent out Stary again. He threw a Lure Ball.

One shake.

Two shakes.

Three shakes.

He caught it!

"I caught an Octillery!" he mentioned. "I better get to Cinnabar Island to restore my Pokémon".

We arrived. "Thanks again" Lughan said going into the Pokémon Centre.

Round the Pokémon Centre, I noticed someone familiar. "Ethan?" he asked.

It was Blue. "You haven't aged a day since I last say you." I gave him a convincing look. "You WERE telling the truth!" he shouted. "So, this is your time period!" Blue pointed at me. "Meet me at the Viridian Gym as soon as you can."

He walked off.

I asked Nurse Joy that night where the Gym was. "It was destroyed in the eruption" she said. "The Gym is in the Seafoam Islands now."

Gotcha.
