A. Let her nurse it to health.

She picks up the Tentacool and gently rocks it.

Officer Jenny: "It's okay little one. You're safe now. Those kids can't be far from town. I'll find you a Pokecenter and make you all better."

She starts to walk in the direction that the kids ran off in.

You: "Magikarp Magikarp!" (Hey wait up!)

You try to flop after her but you're hurt and traveling on land is hard. You struggle to keep up. Exhausted you collapse onto the ground and wheeze heavily.

Officer Jenny: "Aww you as well? What's happening around here? And where am I? How did I get here. Questions for later. Let's get you patched up too."

She reaches down and lifts you up under her left arm, carrying the Tentacool under her right. She's stronger than she looks, you must be heavy. The Tentacool is staring daggers at you inches away

Tentacool: "Ten...tacool!" (You... This is all your fault! You ruined everything!)

The Tentacool tries to hit you with its tentacles but it's too weak. It can barely lift them. Even point blank, Bruno pretty much crippled every single one of them. After some walking Officer Jenny has her limit of its squirming and puts you both onto the ground.

Officer Jenny: "Aww you two seem restless. I know, it's because you're out of water isn't it? Give me a moment."

She pulls an expandable bucket and superglue out of her pocket. What hasn't she got in there?

She fills the bucket with water from a puddle and glues circular rocks to the base. Then she plops you and the Tentacool inside the bucket. The water is dirty (couldn't she have done this at the sea?) and you're squished right next to the Tentacool but it is nice being in water again.

Then you realize what she did. If you push the bucket then the rocks act as rough wheels and you roll a little forward. It's crude, bumpy, slow and awkward but somehow effective. Feels perfect for you.

Officer Jenny: "There we go. Isn't that better?"

Now you can keep up with her and move alongside her as she walks. The Tentacool pokes at you aggressively the entire trip but it can't really do anything in its current state.

Eventually you reach the edge of town and it is packed! The town is completely abuzz with activity. It doesn't seem that large but so many people seem to be out and about.

Kids running and playing, market stalls selling food and goods, families enjoying themselves, jugglers entertain passersby, living statues are ignored by everyone and a Mr Mime is putting on a mime performance... you think... on second thought it might just be existing.

Officer Jenny: "Right! Now you two stay here under this tree. I don't want you to get lost in that crowd. I'm going go find the Pokecenter and then come back."

Wait no! You try to squirm to the top of the bucket and withdraw her but she's already walked off. Why can't these humans follow commands!?

You decide you don't want to wait around and push the bucket into town. You'll find Officer Jenny later. She can't have gone far.

Tentacool: "Tentacool Tentacool Tentacool!" (What are you doing! Stop doing things ! Not mommy said stay put! I forbid you to do stuff! Stop it Stop it Stop it!)

It flails around and tries to halt the bucket from moving but you completely overpower it in its current state. A feeling unfamiliar to you. You're absolutely in charge.

You literally roll into town, camouflaged entirely among a crowd of moving feet, and it doesn't take long to discover why it's so busy .

Giant signs and posters all around you inform you that today is the launch of the brand new luxury Winston Cruise Zeppelins. Almost the entire town must be out for the event. You can even see the enormous Zeppelin in the distance, it could house Old Joe's entire fishing village.

You see a chubby mother with a baby stroller. Smoking with one hand while holding a phone in the other and bragging to someone on the other end that her child is going to be the first baby to ever ride the Zeppelin.

You even see a Pikachu excitedly eating cookies with a Zeppelin ticket tucked into its tail.

Then your attention is truly piqued. You see workers loading giant pallets full of crates of medicine (among other things) onto the Zeppelin. There must be enough medicine for your whole family to comfortably swim in.

Your curiosity turns into determination. Adrenaline and hope pushes the pain out of your mind as you feel a strong desire to get on board that Zeppelin any way you can.

Then you read the blurb on the sign. "Winston Luxury Zeppelin Maiden Voyage! $250 a ticket. *Cinnabar Island gym badge holders ride free."

$250! That's almost all of your family's money. But what's the alternative?

What do you do?

A. Pay $250 for a Zeppelin ticket like a good fish.
B. Steal the Pikachu's ticket while it's eating.
C. Try to infiltrate the Zeppelin with your stealthy skills. Years of experience being totally unremarkable.
D. Take the place of the baby in the stroller while the mother is distracted.
E. Go to the gym and try to win a Cinnabar Island gym badge for a free ticket.
F. Give up on riding the Zeppelin entirely, it's a terrible idea. You're a fish not a bird.
