'''Buzz Off, Electabuzz!''' (Japanese: '''VS エレブー''' ''VS {{tt|Eleboo|Electabuzz}}'') is the 11th round of the [[Pokémon Adventures]] manga.

==Plot==
{{spoilers}}
Aboard the [[S.S. Anne]], {{adv|Red}} discovers the intentions of [[Lt. Surge]] and his sailors: to make money from the Vermilion citizens' stolen Pokémon. Ready to punish Red for his interference, Lt. Surge calls on his 'guard dog': a chained {{p|Electabuzz}}. With [[Poli]] paralyzed and unable to help him out, Red dodges the powerful {{m|ThunderPunch}}, which breaks the ship's floor with its force. Lt. Surge orders Electabuzz to attack again, but unbeknownst to him Poli has secretly dripped a trail of water on the floor leading to him and Electabuzz. At Red's command Poliwhirl uses its {{t|Ice}} powers to freeze the legs of Lt. Surge and Electabuzz, and with the smoke of a launched [[Poké Ball]], Red escapes safely.

Trying to find the exit while avoiding {{p|Magnemite}}, Red is spotted by Lt. Surge on one of the security cameras. When Red gets to the ship's deck, a {{p|Magneton}} attacks Red from behind, and in the process he lets go of his unconscious Poliwhirl. Before Red can retrieve Poli, Surge reappears and grabs Poli by the arm, and prepares to throw the Pokémon overboard. Red attempts to rescue it, but a quad of Surge's Magneton seal him in a tetrahedral barrier, leaving Lt. Surge to fling Poliwhirl off the ship and have Electabuzz attack Red with {{m|Thunderbolt}}, before the Magneton drop Red into the ocean as well.

While sinking, Red recalls how he was in a similar situation years ago: his then {{p|Poliwag}} evolved to save him from drowning, and history repeats itself as a {{p|Poliwrath}} emerges from the water with Red in its arms, landing on the ship's deck to Lt. Surge's surprise. In its evolved form, Poli easily deflects Electabuzz's electric attack and overpowers it in a show of strength, sending both Electabuzz and Lt. Surge into the air with a {{m|Seismic Toss}}.

Sometime later, the police arrest the crew of the S.S. Anne. Red notes that while the police never managed to find Lt. Surge, all the abducted Pokémon were returned to their owners. The president of the [[Pokémon Fan Club]] approaches Red, expressing disappointment at Poli's evolution, and demands the boy for news of his cute {{p|Abra}}. Red explains that over the experience, the Abra had evolved into {{p|Alakazam}}; at this, the President keels over much to the alarm of the Fan Club members, and the sweat drops of Red and Alakazam.
