"As long as it's a Pokémon other than Water-type, whether it's Poison-type or Bug-type, I will do my best and heal it with my own hands!"
"But, with the exception of Water-type Pokémon, I don't dare to touch them unless I'm wearing my Dive suit!" Chansey was so considerate that she took off the Dive suits that had just been taken off.
This thing is very heavy. Wearing it in the water is okay, but if it is on the land area, it is very inconvenient to wear it.
Misty was really disappointed hearing all this.
"Why is it that the Nurse Joy here is not good at handling Water-type Pokémon? I heard that the Nurse Joys here were the best at handling Water-type Pokémon from my mother."
Nurse Joy retorted, "It's not that I'm not good at it, it's that I hate it!"
But saying this was a bigger blow to Misty, "I never expected this to be the true face of a Nurse Joy. My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined!"
It's the sense of loss caused by the huge gap between reality and imagination, which Ash said is understandable.
After Nurse Joy has put on the Dive suit again and is finally ready to do a health check on Misty's water Pokémon. "Of course, our Pokémon Center here has the best Pokémon treatment technology for dealing with Water-type!"
However, Misty refused, "You don't need to check!"
"No!" Nurse Joy insisted, "Misty, doctors don't choose patients based on personal preferences. When you see a sick Pokémon, you have to cure it! This is my job!"
"Fine…" Misty did not refuse after seeing Ash look at her.
This is of course the best for Nurse Joy, as the Dive suit is difficult to move on the ground.
Coming to the clinic, the medical equipment here is indeed amazingly advanced. There are also water tanks of different sizes, housing various water Pokémon.
Those Chanseys have already put new bandages on that Goldeen they previously saw, "There are many types of diseases and wounds for Water-type Pokémon face, inside here we have most everything covered! According to the symptoms they give us, we let the Pokémon rest in suitable water quality with the medications mixed in, this is where it will be cured the fastest!"
It is like a very professional and a veritable spa inside for the Pokémon's.
While talking, the group came to a huge water tank, and inside was another Gyarados!
When that Gyarados appeared in the lake just some time ago, Misty's face looked very uncomfortable. Now she was standing directly in front of a Gyarados, and she immediately locked onto Ash's side.
Ash patted Misty's head lightly, "Misty, I said before at the Ecruteak gym that no one has the right to deny other people's preferences. You are afraid of Gyarados because of your childhood experience! Nurse Joy is probably the same, right?"
"Ash, how did you know?" Misty looked at Ash in confusion, but lowered her head when she saw his eyes.
Nurse Joy is very happy that Ash can understand her, "Ash, you are right, in fact, I also loved Water-type Pokémon when I was a child! After all growing up in a family like mine, you have to face lots of Water-type Pokémon on the daily basis."
It turns out that like Misty, the youngest Nurse Joy of Lake Lucid, had a very similar experience. She was washed into the water by a Remoraid's powerful Water Gun. Although she now understands that it was just Remoraid expressing friendship, it left a psychological shadow on her. She can never let that fear go, the fear of drowning and water in general!
There is still a difference between all of them, just like Molly, that girl must still be sitting on top of the head of that Gyarados and having fun everywhere in that huge lake!
Ash knows Molly and her courage very well.
After all, she is a girl who can order around an Entei.
Even if she really falls into the water, there will be no psychological shadow left on her from what all Ash knows about her.
There are so many Water-type Pokémon in the lake who will save her, and there are still some people near the shore.
There is also Meganium who Ash left for Molly's protection, and she is very good at using Vine Whip, she will make sure Molly is perfectly safe there.
Molly knew she was absolutely not in any kind of danger!
What's more, she also has an that Air Baloon of a Pokémon, Jigglypuff, which can make her and Molly float by inflating herself.
"Misty, as someone who aims to become a Water-type Pokémon Master, Gyarados is something you can never escape. One day, you will overcome this weakness of yours and catch a Gyarados that will become one of your strongest Trump Cards!" It's Ash's trust in Misty, she can definitely do it!
"Ash, thank you! I think I understand!" Misty nodded. She actually knew about her problem with Gyarados is just a one sided thing.
"Ash!" Brock suddenly said to him, "You will definitely become the strongest Pokémon Master in the future!"
Ash nodded confidently, "Of course!"
Then, he looked at Nurse Joy and said, "Nurse Joy, as a doctor, especially a professional doctor of Water-type Pokémon, you are the same, you will have to face it one day! And I think you can start it with this guy!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ash threw a Poké Ball in front of Nurse Joy's confused eyes!
Suicune!
The Legendary Beast of Water! The Incarnation of the North Wind!
No matter how many times a person watches it, it still always be a mesmerizing moment!
"I personally love Suicune. It is probably one of my favorite Water-type Pokémons of all time." Ash gave his own thought and Misty and Brock nodded towards what he had just said.
As a doctor for Water Pokémon, how could she not know about Suicune!
Suicune has the ability to purify the water quality. If it were there back then, the purification of Lake Lucid would not require the power of three generations of the Joy family living here!
But again, this just proves the greatness of the Joy family and their dedication to helping Water-type Pokémon!
"Suicune?" Nurse Joy's eyes were filled with tears and she was mesmerized by his beauty. Yes, this is a Water-type Pokémon, but it is completely different from an ordinary Water-type Pokémon.
The horns, which are as bright as crystals, and the ribbons, which are as elegant as the wind, are so majestic no matter from which angle you look at them.
Such a beautiful creature, even looking directly at it is considered a blasphemy. How could Nurse Joy have any fear or disgust for it?
The Water-type Pokémon in the clinic were all splashing with water, cheering and celebrating for being able to see such a creature!
"Suicune, thank you!" Nurse Joy could feel the concern in Suicune's eyes. She slowly put her face against Suicune's and hugged it gently.
Ash hoped that the appearance of Suicune will slowly allow her, who used to love Water-type Pokémon, to slowly get out of her own psychological shadow!
"Big Brother, it's not good!"
Molly suddenly rushed in for help, but Lapras and Meganium were too big to get in.
There were still tears in the corners of the little girl's eyes. Ash quickly hugged her and said, "Molly, what's wrong?"
"I accidentally slipped just now, and Gyarados seemed to have been injured again while trying to save me from hitting that tree branch! Now it's bleeding from the place behind its scale, Big Brother, what should I do?"
Molly knew that she was in trouble, as all the Water-type Pokémon in the Lake were all injured Pokémon, resting and waiting for their trainers.
While they were doing rehabilitation, she went a little too crazy and because of her, one of them was injured.
Ash didn't blame her, "Molly, rest easy, don't worry, I and Nurse Joy are both here to heal them up!"
With that said, he quickly led the group to the lake shore, and sure enough, Gyarados was writhing in pain in the water, all the other Water-type Pokémon in the pond had been protected by Meganium and were gathering at a single place.
Now she is waiting for Ash together with Lapras.
Nurse Joy was about to step forward to check Gyarados, but she did not ask to wear Dive clothes.
"Nurse Joy, Gyarados is too dangerous now. You will be injured if you approach it rashly!" Ash couldn't help but worry.
"This is a easy to fix! Meganium, Safeguard, Jigglypuff, Sing!"
Jigglypuff's singing quickly restored Gyarados' calmness, and even the other Water-type Pokémon that were originally in the lake fell asleep.
After being examined by Nurse Joy, Gyarados was just injured in a soft spot and in pain, but nothing major happened. Everything turned for the better.
