1. Ash's Story (Part 10: Galar)

Chapter 13

As everyone returns to the Wild Area, a downpour drenches the entire landscape while intermittent thunderstorms crackle in certain pockets. Helen, eyeing the tumultuous weather, comments with a hint of disappointment, "Well, there goes the good weather..."

"But hey, this weather's perfect for Electric and Water type Pokémon! They tend to come out during rain and thunderstorms," Elena observes optimistically.

"You're onto something. It could be an excellent opportunity for us to train with them, especially considering our next gym specializes in Water-type Pokémon," I suggest, feeling a surge of excitement.

"And I'm thinking this weather might just help me check off some Water-type Pokémon captures from our next job list," Gloria chimes in, her enthusiasm matching mine.

Water Type Poke Jobs:

1. Surf Shipping: This job involves carrying cargo over the water. We're looking for Water-type Pokémon. (3 Pokemon)

2. Yoshida Cafe: We want to take particular care in what water we use to brew my coffee. I'd like Pokémon that are knowledgeable about such things. (3 Pokemon)

3. The Captain's Table: In order to create delicious, moist desserts, I would like to ask for Water-type Pokémon to help in measuring out the ingredients. (6 Pokemon)

4. Lapras' Shipwrights: We need Water-type Pokémon to dive beneath the ships and inspect the hulls. (6 Pokemon)

5. Grow Sures: Vegetables need to be crisp and well hydrated! We'd love to have some Water-type Pokémon come and help us out. (7 Pokemon)

6. Wyndon Monorail: The monorail's gotten rather dirty, so we'd like Water-type Pokémon to come help make it nice and clean! (9 Pokemon)

7. Galar Fire Station: There's one thing that we absolutely need to put out fires, and we're looking for a Pokémon that can help us refill our fire truck! (10 Pokemon)

8. Macro Cosmos Living: Clean water is the basis for delicious meals! We'd like to hire Pokémon that have an eye for water quality. (10 Pokemon)

9. Rondo Floral: All plants need water! And as it so happens, Water-type Pokémon are the best at watering plants! (30 Pokemon)

10. Galar Post Office: Our delivery truck's gotten a bit dirty, so we want to wash it off and make it shine again! We're waiting for Pokémon that can help! (30 Pokemon)

Gloria happily remarks, "Yoshida Cafe was delighted with the plant decoration I handled, and now they're interested in having me showcase some Water-type Pokémon to determine the best water for their coffee. And as for Galar Fire Station and Macro Cosmos Living, they've been our loyal customers from way back."

Curious, Elena asks, "But how on earth did you manage to secure orders from those big companies?"

Gloria responds, "Well, my Dad used to be the head of the Poke Job Company. After he passed away in an accident, I've taken the reins. I'm determined to rebuild the business from scratch and make it as successful as it was many years ago."

Realizing the extent of Gloria's commitments, I add, "So, capturing all those Pokémon is all part of starting fresh. You've got quite a lot on your plate."

"And it's not going to be easy," Alice remarks, acknowledging the challenges ahead.

Amidst the tasks and responsibilities, Helen manages to find a silver lining. "Luckily, we have some trees around. We can use their cover to set up a cloth and still attempt to enjoy my Curry meals," she says with a determined tone. "Here we are. This time, I'm using Bob's Food Tin to make some Juicy Curry."
