S.S. Anne

The S.S. Anne is a large cruse ship docked in Vermilion City’s bay. You’ll only be able to visit it this one time, but there won’t be anything special you can miss. When you first arrive, you’ll meet up with your Rival and Blue. Blue will give you a Shalour Sable, which heals any status condition of a Pokemon one time.

It’s best to investigate every room on the ship to battle every Trainer and pick up each item. Start with the main deck.

If your team gets weak, speak to the woman in the first room on the right to restore their health for free. The next room on the right has a Pokemon Trainer inside.
