The next day, an impatient Professor Sakuragi knocked on Roy's door, wanting to observe the Dhelmise Roy had subdued the day before.
But Roy didn't open his door no matter how long they knocked.
There was not a sound from inside the room.
Where could Roy go so early in the morning?
A passing sailor reminded Dr. Sakuragi that Roy was on deck and urged him to hurry over, otherwise there wouldn't be any good spots left.
What do you mean by "if you arrive late, there won't be any good seats left"?
Professor Sakuragi thanked the crew again, then quickly went to the deck, where a group of people were already gathered, discussing something.
Squeezing through the crowd, Professor Sakuragi saw Roy using a large brush to clean the rust, mud, and other dirt from the anchor and rudder of the Dhelmise ship on the deck.
After a long period of seawater Corrosion, most of the parts on the Dhelmise, except for seaweed, were covered in rust.
The Snorunt next to him, holding a small brush, imitated Roy, using his two little round hands to brush his newly recruited little brother.
He's her little brother after all, so as the older sister, she's bound to take care of him.
Looking at the Snorunt who knew how to appreciate his hard work, Roy nudged the Dusclops beside him. All it did was eat all day and never helped with any chores.
Even after Roy reprimanded her, the Dusclops continued to stuff Pokéblock into her mouth.
The Ancient Gengar even set up a parasol on the deck and lay back and forth in a rocking chair, looking very relaxed.
Nearby was Roy's Palossand, who was currently enjoying the sunshine.
Just as Roy was about to turn around and praise Snorunt for being sensible, he suddenly noticed that the little brush in Snorunt's hand looked strangely familiar.
Upon closer inspection... isn't this my own toothbrush?
He said his toothbrush was missing after he brushed his teeth in the morning.
"Snorunt, isn't that my toothbrush!?"
Snorunt stopped what he was doing and returned the toothbrush to Roy, feeling embarrassed.
Seeing that his toothbrush was now all frizzy from being brushed by Snorunt, Roy didn't blame Snorunt, after all, the other party was just trying to help him with some work.
It could be said that Roy occupied almost half of the deck area, but no one dared to say anything bad about Roy.
Many crew members and passengers on the ship were watching Roy and his strange Ghost type Pokémon.
After a period of development, and with reports from several regional professors regarding Ghost type Pokémon being released.
There is an increasing amount of explanation and popular science about Ghost type Pokémon, and many people have gone from initial fear to a mixture of fear and curiosity.
Of course, Roy also made a significant contribution by voluntarily allowing several professors to research his Pokémon.
Last night, Roy created a Pokéblock for Dhelmise. Thanks to Roy's powerful enhancement, the areas on Dhelmise that were originally yellowed and withered have now regained their original emerald green color.
In some places, new seaweed has even grown, covering the entire anchor.
After cleaning the surface of the Dhelmise, Roy took out the perfect-quality Metal Coat he had redeemed from the System Shop yesterday from his Spatial Bracelet.
A small Metallic Color box appeared in Roy's hand.
Props: Metal Coat
Effect: Increases the power of Steel type moves of the Pokémon holding this item by 20%.
He spent 1 million Popularity Points to redeem this.
Unlike other Held Item like Charcoal and Spell Tag, which are absorbed by Pokémon, the Metal Coat needs to be applied to the Pokémon after opening the outer packaging.
In addition to boosting the power of Pokémon's Steel type moves, Metal Coat also has a special effect.
That is to increase the Pokémon's weight. Don't be fooled by the fact that the silver round box looks like a face cream in Roy's hand; its actual weight is nearly fifty kilograms.
Of course, as you gain weight, your speed will decrease accordingly.
However, this is definitely a good thing for Dhelmise, as she can learn skills like Gyro Ball, Dhelmise calculates skill damage based on speed difference, and Heavy Slam, which calculates damage based on weight.
There are also Metal Coat that do not add weight. Devon Corporation recently developed a lightweight Metal Coat, which is now ready for sale.
Steven also said he would give him two boxes when he arrived at Hoenn.
Roy opened the small metal round box, inside which was a coating of silver dye that looked like liquid.
The method of use is to apply it to the Pokémon's body like a face cream.
Roy picked up a brush and evenly applied the Metal Coat to the anchor that had just been cleaned.
For hard-to-apply areas like the bottom of the anchor, Roy easily lifted the Dhelmise with one hand, and used the other hand to pick up the brush and continue applying the paint to the areas he hadn't been able to reach before.
This action left everyone speechless. Roy lifted a huge Pokémon with one hand, and even had the strength to use his other hand to apply a brush to the Metal Coat.
They don't seem very tired yet.
Is this guy even human?
After the Metal Coat was applied, the original Metallic Color of the anchor on the Dhelmise was revealed again, and it shone brightly in the sunlight.
Seeing the words "Metal Coat" appear in the "Held Item" section of the System Panel, Roy knew the application was complete.
The Dhelmise felt as if it had been reborn with a new body. The seaweed attached to the anchor waved out and waved constantly, indicating that it was in a very good mood.
Dhelmise: How can life be the same no matter who you live with?
