Alex crashed his body on the soft bed of the VVIP. The only pokemons by his side is Espeon who sat by his leg while the enthusiastic pair of Pokemons who comprised of Swablu Pikachu, Riolu,Growlithe, happiny and Dratini, were at the balcony attached to the room and enjoyed the scenery around them.

There is still almost an hour time, left before S S Smith embarks for the Slateport City of Hoenn regions while making stops on the islands on the path.

The pokemons get a high position view of the people as well as the Vermillion city from the balcony along with the surrounding sea area.

There are a total of twenty balcony rooms in Cruise s.h.i.+p of which two are currently owned by Bill and Alex and from the information that Alex got, the other two is currently used by Princess Elsa and her guardian and protector, Julius.

The cruise s.h.i.+p has ten balcony rooms for VVIP guest on either side of the cruise s.h.i.+p. The topmost front side has various rooms for weather and sonar facilities while at the top is the Captain"s deck.

Of course, below these rooms is a free deck from where people could watch and enjoy the sea breeze. The cruise s.h.i.+p has two big swimming pools on the backside of the cruise.

There are some bars as well as different sports such as paragliding facilities available. The deep-sea diving is also available but it is only when they are in the middle of the ocean.

The other enjoyment facilities that the cruise s.h.i.+p possess are the casino, inner swimming pools, Pokemon trading center, Pokemon tournament, and some other Pokemon related activities. They even sell some of the Pokemons from other regions who are not so well known in Kanto, in the name of rare Pokemons.

As for these activities, they are seminars of Pokemon doctors, professor and trainer on his to train them, raise them or study them. But these aren"t cheap, for the host are hired and so only people who really want to take part to join them.

These seminars last for hours and are pretty educational so it isn"t a loss of money for mist people who understand it"s used.

Alex and Bill"s room are adjacent to one another similar to Elsa and Julius. But Alex and Bill"s room are on the side of cruise s.h.i.+p facing the port while Elsa is the opposite side of the cruise facing the wide ocean.

As for how Alex knows who is the other person and where they reside, the credit goes to Bill and the captain of the s.h.i.+p.

The past events were something. For the first time, Alex saw Bill acting domineering towards someone compared to the normally easy-going way in front of him.

Thanks to that, the captain not only offered them the room free of charge but also gave them information about every person whether they are VVIP, VIP or common people who are going to travel in the cruise s.h.i.+p for Hoenn region.


All of this took quite some time, which made Alex give up the plan of surveying the cruise s.h.i.+p before it embarks. This plan is something Alex has told Bill earlier when they were talking at the pier, so Bill in all his magnanimity declared that whatever Pokemon he likes he can have it for free.

Of course, Alex doesn"t like that so he has a brief discussion with him and finally conceded on the matter that the first one is only free. As for others, he will pay.

This made the captain secretly sigh in relief for he won"t be losing much in that deal. But Bill added another clause, he will have a 30 percent discount on everything on the s.h.i.+p and before he could object, he stopped him midway in the name of their friends.h.i.+p.

All this is way too tiring for Alex and so he is resting now. But, the cl.u.s.ter of young pokemons has too much energy to sit down quietly. Since Alex ask them not to leave the room, the group decided to enjoy themselves at the balcony.

Alex is currently thinking of the journey to the Hoenn region.

[POKEMON POV]

With the Pokemons on the balcony,

Riolu, Swablu, Pikachu, Growlithe, happiny and Dratini are currently on the balcony. The railing of the balcony is about four feet tall and ten feet long. The railing is made of steel welded strongly to the cruise s.h.i.+p so until and unless a Pokemon as heavy as Snorlax or golem directly rest on it, there will not be any harm or sign of breaking.

There were also some wooden bench and a chair on the balcony so that the guest could sit on it and e joy the scenery from the balcony.

Dratini has wound herself on the railing and rose to the top so she could see everything clearing, while Swablu sat on the railing and Pikachu just climbed. Upon climbing he teases the Pokemon below," Woah, it looks so beautiful from up here. Pity you cannot enjoy the sane view as me."

Riolu and Growlithe are pretty upright Pokemons and hence they didn"t like his mocking, they growled at him and tried to hit him but he evaded.

Meanwhile riolu, happiny and Growlithe cannot just too high jump to reach the railing for if they jumped too hard, they may fall down from their place to the lower decks.

So riolu and Growlithe tried to pull the bench closer but they couldn"t move it. So Pikachu mocked them, "You cannot even move a bench. Haha, how are you going to catch me?"

Growlithe growled, " just you wait I am going to get you."

Riolu replied pretty calmly compared to Growlithe but it still has a tone of anger,"the moment you come down, you are going to get it." But Pikachu didn"t pay them any heed and continued to mock them, as for Swablu and Dratini they didn"t bother to join Pikachu.

Happiny is also attracted to the scenery so she pulled the heavy bench to the railing side which Growlithe and riolu cannot move an inch pretty easily and jumped onto it.

After climbing the bench she climbed into the railing and shouted excitedly," Woah, it is so beautiful. I love it."

Her sudden shout also attracted Pikachu, Riolu and Grow who did not notice Happiny"s actions and they saw the chair. Their eyes sparkled meanwhile Pikachu panicked on seeing it.

He tried to appease them," Hey guys. I am sorry. You know how I am, don"t you? I was just joking." He said frantically.

But the two canine Pokemons won"t hear anything, they rushed up the chair and on for Pikachu. Pikachu jumped from the railing and dodge from the twos grabs.

The other members ignored their play.

Swablu who sat on the railing perched," Isn"t it? But I enjoy this type of scenery all the time, what I really want to see is the ocean? I heard it is very big."

" Is the ocean really big? " Dratini the curious dragon type asked.

"Yes, it is very big. Back in the Farm, I often heard stories from his grandpa"s Pokemon about how big it is. They say that the ocean is so big that it takes days by these machines and without them months to travel from one big Land to another land.

Ocean holds much treasure but it is equally dangerous to travel alone."

" Woah" Dratini was entranced by the ocean just like many before him.

Back with Alex,

He has studied the route that the cruise s.h.i.+p will take for Hoenn.

There are two places which attracted his attention. One of them was the lucky island, which is said to have Togepi and togetic residing there. And, the most striking and noteworthy place of them all is the Alto mere.

The city is known as the City of Water and is situated near Johto"s azalea town. The s.h.i.+p will stop there to restock in bulk so he has about three days there to enjoy and search for the legendary Pokemon Latios and Latias.

Currently, he is not strong enough to wield a legendary Pokemon but it is not wrong to bond with one early so you can get one for yourself.

He can also test his luck in the Lucky island where they will stop for two days for restocking. After which they will not stop anymore, except for the one-stop on Littleroot town and then finally reach it"s the destination, the Slateport city.

He has already set a number of pokemon he wishes to catch in Hoenn if luck favors him enough.

They were any one of tge starter but preferably Blazikan, seedot (for their evolved form s.h.i.+ftry could help him in dark type research), poochyena( similar as seedot), Sableye, carvanha, cacnea and corphish ( for dark type research), Aron( lack of steel type), gulpin ( strong poison), , wailmer( another ride), feebas, absol( research as well as disaster sense), snorunt or spheal( more ice type), psychic types like Solrock, lunatone or beldum and finally trapinch or bagon(no one say no to some good dragon type).

When he is in thoughts about these pokemons, a knock at the door brought him out of his thoughts.

He reluctantly rises from his earlier sleeping position and walks to the door. Espeon rid her head to look at Alex and scanned the person who interrupted her rest time with psychic.

After confirming there is no danger, she returns back to resting.

Alex opened the door to see Bill but before the two could greet each other, the trio of Pikachu, Growlithe and riolu collided with them making them fall.

Pikachu is on Bill"s head while the two canines were on Alex"s legs. Bill and Alex just laughed at each other.

" It seems the pokemon are enjoying themselves," Bill said with mirth.

" It seems the case to me," Alex said while bringing Bill and the pokemons to the balcony for the cruise s.h.i.+p is ready to embark for Hoenn city.
