I'm glad everyone likes Mew! I was wondering how people would react, and I'm glad the response has been positive!

Disclaimer: Pokémon, along with any people, places or things from it are not mine, nor do I claim it to be. The only thing I do own is myself and the dream this all started from.

Ashley and Alicia stood mouths agape, the surprise of Mew appearing out of thin air from beside me hitting them like a brick wall at 100 miles an hour.

Mew flicked her tail at the two awed girls and cocked her head to the side, "Why does everyone do that when they see me?"

I turned to Mew, "Because you're, quite possibly the most legendary of the Kanto legendaries," I explained, "You have quite the reputation."

"It can talk?" said Alicia, finding her voice.

"I'd prefer to referred to as a 'she'," Mew commented, "Though I'm technically genderless I modeled my voice after a girl's voice for a reason."

Ashley nodded, collecting herself a bit, "Why are you floating around with Jenn," Ashley asked, her voice revealing a bit of hysteria.

"She caught me, of course," Mew pointed out casually.

"How many Pokéballs did it take?" Alicia asked, snapping out of the haze long before Ashley, she pulled out a piece of paper and a pen, "I need to know this stuff to catch Articuno."

"Only one," I replied, "It seems that legendary Pokémon can only be caught if they want to be."

"It's generally a little trickier than just throwing a Pokéball though," Mew said, "Many legendaries require you to prove yourself by actually battling them."

Alicia nodded as she continued writing, "Anything else you can tell me?"

"I doubt any legendary wants to be caught at the moment," Mew said, adding more, "Arceus told us to protect something from Team Rocket, and the legendaries take their jobs seriously."

"Then why did you let yourself be caught?" Ashley said, finally breaking through the hysteria barrier.

"I thought Jenn was a good candidate to take down Team Rocket," Mew pointed out, "If Team Rocket doesn't exist then there won't be a problem anymore."

"Now," I said, eager to move on, "Didn't you two want to get the Cut HM?"
"Right!" Alicia said, snapping into action mode, "Come on Ashley!"
Alicia grabbed Ashley's wrist again and tugged her off toward the bow of the ship.

Mew disappeared as the girls vanished up the stairs. I decided not to follow them, but to explore the ship and battle some trainers before getting the HM for Cut. I walked in the opposite direction than my friends had, planning on taking the stairs down to the lower level of the ship.

I did go down the stairs and into an area with doors into many different cabins. On the left side of the stairs I noticed a garbage can. It was disgusting, but I rummaged through it to see if there were any items. My gross search turned out to be a success, I found a Hyper Potion. I then took my hand out of the garbage can and entered the closest cabin door.

In this room there was a man and a Machoke. The man wasn't very interesting; all he did was talk about how strong his Machoke was. What was interesting was the item sitting on his table. Since it was in the shape of a Pokéball I figured it didn't belong to anyone, since that seemed to be why items turned into Pokéballs when dropped. I picked it up and it turned into a Super Potion, which I put into my bag.

I continued entering all of the cabins on this part of the ship. I battled many sailors, Duncan, Leonard, Dylan, Huey, and Phillip. The sailors, with exception of Phillip used water Pokémon, mostly Horseas, Shellders and Tentacools, though Huey used a Staryu. Phillip used a Machop. There was also one fisherman, Barny, who used a Tentacool, a Staryu, and a Shellder, all at level 17. In the process of defeating all of these trainers Kadabra grew from level 17 to level 22 and learned the move Psybeam. I also picked up two items, an Ether and the TM for Rest.

I then went back upstairs to check out all of the cabins on the first floor. There were many trainers on the first level as well, Gentleman Thomas, Gentleman Arthur, Lass Ann, and Youngster Tyler. I battled a few different Pokémon, Growlithes, Nidorans and Pidgeys and found another TM, the one for Brick Break. Two of my Pokémon also levelled up, Kadabra again, making his level match that of my other Pokémon. Then Fearow levelled up again.

Once I had finished with all of the trainers I headed to the kitchen to look for some hidden items. I found a Cheri Berry in one of the garbage cans, not without getting a few odd looks from the chefs in the room. I also found a not hidden Great Ball in this room. I was finally finished exploring this floor.

I finally went up the stairs that Ashley and Alicia had gone up a while ago and went up another set of stairs, which led me to the hallway to the deck. Out here I fought more trainers, Trevor, and Edmond, both sailors. The only other people out on the deck were another sailor who was swabbing the deck, a youngster talking about the party, and a man who felt seasick. I stayed well away from this last man.

The next part of my ship exploration was to battle the trainers in all of the rooms on the second floor. This wasn't too hard; there wasn't a ton of trainers. I battled only four people, Fisherman Dale, Gentleman Brooks, Lass Dawn, Gentleman Lamar, the rest of the people weren't interested in battling. In these battles Kadabra levelled up again, and I found an X Attack while exploring the rooms.

Finally, now that I had finished my exploration, I headed to the stairs that would take me to the captain's quarters. As I walked I saw someone come down the staircase, he was wearing a red hat.

"Hello Red," I said, recognizing him immediately.

"Oh, hi," Red said, seeming to recognize me as well, You're that person that was on Route 22 with Dana, that crazy person."

I laughed, "Yes, but I do go by a name. I'm Jenn."

"Nice to properly meet you," Red replied, "Now, as it is customary, we should battle."

I was slightly startled, "Well I guess," I said, "Since we are both trainers."
