"I owe my life to my Pokémon, the only one I managed to bring with me when I hid on that ship... Chances are, they're the ones that made sure I didn't join the rest of the crew."
They reached into their bag, pulling out a hat.
"This was the only sign of anyone I could find after the storm got bad."
