It was day two on the ship, I was miserable. I was in my cabin all day throwing up in a trash bin, and Spike was lying beside me trying to comfort me. He was just staring at me.
I did read a little bit in my trainer guide. I learned about physical, special, and other moves. Physical attacks were like stone edge, quick attack, and rolling kick. Special moves were like hyper beam, dragon rage, and dark pulse. Other moves were like sleep powder, sunny day, and moonlight. I was also reading about strategies that apply using them. It was night time and I looked out my window and saw a full moon. Then darkness came to me.

It was my third and last day on the ship. I woke up in the morning completely better. It seemed just like magic. I got in my swimming trunks and went down to the pool. I loved swimming - I've been able to swim since I was a little boy. I didn't have to learn like most kids I just went in the water and swam, it just came naturally. Spike refused to go in the water not because he couldn't swim just he hated getting wet. Instead he lay out in the sun, enjoying the first day of summer.
In the evening, Spike and I watched the horizon as the sun sank behind it. It was beautiful.
"Gyarados!"
"Did you hear a noise Spike?"
"No, I don't think so."
Then right out of the water a Gyarados popped up.
"You did not die" I shouted loudly.
Everyone on the ship ran over there. "Kill that Gyarados!"
"No, I said lets here what he has to say. Spike what is Gyarados saying?" I asked, calming the crowd.
"He wants to fight us," answered Spike. It was fine with me; I was ready for another battle! Spike began with faint attack, hitting the Gyarados on his head. Gyarados cried in pain, and opened his mouth to begin forming a ball of water. Spike attacked again repeatedly, before the dragon rage could kick in. It was then when I remembered my Pokéballs. Reaching into my pocket, I grabbed one and tossed it at the water Pokémon. Gyarados was sucked inside it in a ray of red light. The Pokémon disappeared from the water. The ball shook in front of my on the deck, then stopped.
"I caught a Gyarados!" I cried triumphantly.
Everyone questioned me as to why, but I gave them all the same answer: Gyarados needs a home.
After catching my new Pokémon, I returned to my cabin to sleep after I polished my new Pokéball happily.

I had barely slept for a minute before the microphone spoke, "We are now arriving at Mossdeep City."
"Yes, I wildly screamed." We got off the boat and unloaded our car from the boat. We loaded our stuff onto the car and Misty escorted us in the car to our new home. Our new home was a nice little place with 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a living room, and a kitchen. My bedroom walls were painted red - my favorite color! All we unloaded since it was dark was our beds. While I was sleeping I dreamed of winning a gym battle and my finishing move was dark pulse with Spike. I also thought of a good nickname for my Gyarados.
During the morning I went with Spike down to the beach in our backyard and let Gyarados into the beach I told him that he could hang out for awhile in the water because I know how much Gyarados' like water.
"Now Gyarados may I call you Gary?" I asked.
"Gara Gara," he said cheerfully.
"That means yes," Spike informed me.
"Now Spike and Gary, we're going to start our first lesson with Misty later once we finish loading in all of our stuff. You guys wait here and hang out."
Misty came into the back yard. Misty said, "Now you guys listen to Parker but don't do anything stupid. I know he seems nice but I don't know for sure what he'll ask," she joked, more to me than them. "Anyway, just do as he says, trust me," she smiled, back at the Pokémon.
