Description

I had been invited down to Kanto's South Western coast to meet with a dear friend of mine, Ellenor. She was a renowned marine biologist and had promised to take me diving to see some of the unique water-type Pokemon.
Meeting at the dock, we quickly loaded the diving gear and set out. It was a beautiful day for a dive and it had been a while since I had actually gotten into the water. She explained that much of this area was now protected after overfishing caused a lot of damage to the local wildlife.

We headed out into deeper water where her team had been studying a variety of species. As the boat came to a stop, we dropped the anchor, got our diving gear on and headed out.
It was rich with life and colour. Areas like this had been decimated by fishing and pollution and had only now begun to recover. Ellenor gestured toward a large kelp forest that had grown around the remains of a sunken barge.
Glittering schools of fish surrounded us and we swam through the enormous plants that stretched all the way to the surface. As I turned a corner I saw a stream of bubbles and a flash of orange disappear behind some kelp. As I got closer, it slowly swam into view, a Seaking.
In the autumn months, Seaking will travel upriver to freshwater lakes for their breeding season. The males will carve out nests in boulders using their horns in order for the female to lay her eggs safely.
I tried to signal to Ellenor, but by the time she had swum over it had withdrawn back into the leafy forest.
