Chapter 15: Tentacool Attack!
After having a long relaxation on the beaches of Porta Vista, Lyra, Misty and Brock decided it was time to catch a boat for the mainland. But they had to wait for a boat to arrive.
While they waited Lyra switched her Infernape because she would be able to help train her other Pokémon's at the ranch, S. Seel that evolved into Dewgong while training same as Squirtle and Azurill who is now a Wartortle and Marill, Espeon, Fearow and Charmander for her 3 Eevee's, Deerling, Milotic and Pidgeot who evolved at the ranch.
Since she had an Espeon, she thought that she would evolve them too. She sent the Eevee's out of their PokéBalls and placed her Fire stone, Water stone and Thunder stone in front of them to choose.
Lyra asked the three Eevee's if they wanted to evolve, "If you don't want to, I won't force you."
But the three Eevee's did want to evolve, into more their stronger forms.
The first Eevee touched the thunder stone and she evolved into a quadruped, mammalian Pokémon. It is covered in yellow fur with a spiky fringe around its tail, and a white ruff around its neck. In addition to the ability to become sharp like needles, its ears are large and pointed, and its eyes and small nose are black. It has slender legs and small paws, each with three toes and a pink paw pad.
"Jolteon!" She spoke.
The second Eevee touched the fire stone and she evolved into a quadruped Pokémon with three small toes and a yellow paw pad on each foot. It has long ears, dark eyes, and a small black nose, its body is covered in reddish-orange fur. However, its bushy tail, fluffy collar, and a tuft of fur on its head are yellow.
"Flareon!" She cried out.
Finally, the last Eevee touched the water stone and she evolved into a composite creature sharing physical traits of aquatic and land animals. It is a quadruped with three small toes on each foot and dark blue paw pads on the hind feet. Its body is light blue with dark blue ridge around its head and as a ridge down its back, it has a split tailfin that could been mistaken for a mermaid in the past and it has a white ruff around its neck, and three fins around its head made of cream-colored webbing.
"Vaporeon!" She spoke.
"Congratulations on your new evolution girls." Lyra said.

Lyra was feeling happy, with her new Pokémon she had got, "And pretty soon I'll be having a new Pokémon." She said holding the blue egg from S.S. Anne in her arms.
When the gang had their Pokémon recovered in the Pokémon Centre, Lyra offered to take the egg.
"What do you think it will hatch into?" Misty asked.
"I don't know," Lyra answered, "I just want it to be nice and healthy. Did you sort out your Pokémon to Misty?" She asked.
"Yes, I did." Misty said she sent her Gyarados to Cerulean Gym and brought back her Oddish, "My Sisters said that my new Pokémon have made their shows more popular. At least they're happy."
"I sent my Growlithe and Sandslash back to my family," Brock said, "and get this. My mum says that my brothers and sisters played with Growlithe right away."
"Well, they do say that Growlithe make good pets for humans." Misty said.
Brock agreed, "Yeah they do."
Just then Pichu and Pikachu noticed something in the ocean.
"Pika." Pikachu said catching everyone's attention.
The gang turned to see what Pikachu was pointing at and they spotted three Pokémon's in the ocean but they looked injured.
The first Pokémon is a small blue, seahorse-like Pokémon with a single dorsal fin and a tightly curled tail. Its eyes are red and its ridged belly and dorsal fin are cream-colored. It has a long, tubular mouth and three spike-like projections on either side of its head.
The last two was a box jellyfish-like Pokémon. It has a light blue, clear body with two large, transparent, red crystals on each side of its body, and one small one in the middle. It has two small eyes with black pupils and no visible irises near the base of its body; it has two tentacles laced with stinging cells. The tentacles extend from beneath its round, blue lower body, which has a cape-like formation in the back.
Misty squealed, "It's a Horsea and two Tentacools."
Horsea, the Dragon Pokémon.
The pre-evolved form of Seadra. It makes its nest in the shade of corals. If it senses danger, it spits murky ink and flees.
Tentacool, the Jellyfish Pokémon.
Because its body is almost entirely composed of water, it shrivels up if it is washed ashore.
"I love Tentacool," Misty said with hearts in her eyes, "they are so adorable."
"Misty really loves Water Pokémon like crazy." Lyra whispered to Brock and he nodded his head in agreement.
"I'm going to catch these three." Misty said as she was about to throw PokéBalls at them, but Brock stopped her.
"Hang on. They look hurt." Brock stated.
"You're right," Misty said, "it looks like they have been in a fight. What happened?"
Just then Lyra saw something, "Look at that," she gasped, "that boat is being attacked by something."
It was a boat carrying workmen. Suddenly the boat sank and the workmen fell into the sea.
Misty released all her Water Pokémon and Lyra released her Milotic and Vaporeon to get them out of there.
The workmen thanked Lyra and Misty and were about to tell them what had happened when an old woman appeared.
The old woman introduced herself as Nastina and thanked Lyra, Brock and Misty for helping her men. "Those damn Tentacool are ruining my plans again." She shouted in rage.
She explained that she was trying to build a hotel and theme park out in the ocean, "But thanks to those disgusting Tentacool my plans are getting ruined. Say as you three are trainers, would you care getting rid of those Tentacool?"
The gang refused immediately, especially Misty. Misty was furious that Nastina thought that Tentacool were disgusting creatures.
The gang left immediately, unhappy what Nastina was planning.
Lyra, Misty and Brock were looking at the ocean, "I've been thinking about something." Lyra said that got their attention.
"What is it?" Misty asked.
"Well, it's about the Tentacool attacking the boat." Lyra said, "What if, where Nastina is building her theme park and hotel is really where the Tentacool live."
"That actually makes sense." Brock said realizing what Lyra mean, "Wild Pokémon do attack humans if their territory is being threatened."
"So, the one who's wrong around here is Nastina, not the Tentacool." Misty said.
Then Pichu and Pikachu saw the Horsea and two Tentacools again.
"Pichu!" "Pika!"
Misty walked out to the Tentacools, "Tentacool I need to know," Misty asked, "is where that construction is your home?" The Tentacools nodded. "Your theory is right Mew," She said, "Nastina is ruining the ocean. We need to stop her."
But then there was trouble, Nastina couldn't take any more of the Tentacool and she asked everyone in Porta Vista to get rid of them for her. She even said they would get a reward of a lot of money if they did. The bad news was that everyone accepted the offer.
"What can we do?" Lyra asked in worry, "Nastina is really desperate to get rid of the Tentacool."
The other bad news was that Jessie, James and Meowth was around and they wanted the reward money too and agreed to go after the Tentacool. They were now out on the ocean, in a row boat, carrying a tub of what they called 'Super Stun Sauce.'
"So, what will this stuff do?" James asked.
"Simple James," said Jessie, "this stuff with make the Tentacool paralyzed."
"And once it's done that," said Meowth, "we can capture the Jellyfish and present them to the boss."
"Ah I've got it," said James, "this is a great plan".
Unfortunately, Team Rockets plan didn't turn out great. When they poured the stuff into the ocean, one of the angry Tentacool touched the stuff and evolved into a large, primarily blue jellyfish-like Pokémon. It has two large, red crystal spheres encrusted in its upper body that can refract sunlight and store energy. The round lower body, from which its eyes are visible, appears black, it can extend up to 80 tentacles out of its body and it has two blue beak-like appendages.(Proto-Dynamax)
"Tentacruel!" It said angrily.
When Lyra, Misty and Brock saw the new evolved Tentacruel, they were horrified because it was ten times bigger than a normal size Tentacruel indicating it is giant Pokémon, it was bigger than the tall buildings in the cities.
Tentacruel, the Jellyfish Pokémon.
The evolved form of Tentacool. It uses its tentacles to capture prey and holds it until weakened from poison.
- This Tentacool is a Giant Pokémon.
"That's is a very unhappy Tentacruel." Lyra stated seeing this angry, rage face.
"This isn't good," Brock said looking at the Giant Tentacool, "that giant Tentacruel is angrier than all the Tentacool put together."
The Tentacruel began attacking the city with its giant tentacles and the Tentacools helped him.
Then Tentacruel grabbed Meowth and spoke to the humans through Meowth like a puppet. "Humans," Giant Tentacruel said, "you destroyed our home and now we will destroy yours."
"So, where the hotel is being built is where the Tentacool live." Brock said.
"We need to stop them," Misty said, "who knows what else they will do."
The Horsea and two Tentacools tried to reason with Tentacruel, but Tentacruel wouldn't listen. "It's no use Horsea and Tentacool." It said, "Humans are not trustworthy and should be destroyed."
First the Tentacool and Tentacruel destroyed Nastina's hotel and theme park, and then moved back to attacking the city.
Misty bravely steps on top of a building and speaks to the Tentacruel through a microphone, "Tentacruel," She said, "I understand that you are angry because of what the humans did to your home. And now that we realize of what we did, we promise you this will not happen again and we will leave your home alone."
Tentacruel hesitated at first, not certain if to trust Misty or not, then it commanded the all the Tentacools back into the ocean. "We will let you off this once, but if you humans do attack our home again, we will not be forgiving next time." Tentacruel warned them and then it swatted Meowth and Team Rocket away and went back into the ocean.
Nastina was still angry at Tentacool and Tentacruel and wanted to get rid of them but Tentacruel swatted her away too.
Lyra laugh along with Pichu and Pikachu, "Hahahaha! Nice shot!" She commented on Tentacruel.
"Yeah, good riddance." Brock said, "Couldn't happen to a nicer person." Lyra agreed.
So now the ocean was never going to be disturbed again and the citizens of Porta Vista both agreed to never build a building in the ocean again because they all knew that the water Pokémon of the ocean may fight back.
After the problem with Tentacool and Tentacruel was over Lyra, Misty and Brock finally caught a boat for the mainland.
"Hey Misty," Lyra called her, "did you catch any Tentacool?"
"Yes, I did," Misty said, "you remember the Horsea and two Tentacool that we saw? Well, I caught them and they are now at Cerulean Gym."
"I bet your sisters will be frilled that you got new Pokémon for them to use." Lyra said.
"They sure will." Misty replied.
Now that saving the city from the Tentacruel and Tentacools attack, the gang continued on the road.
