"Wild Missingno. appeared!"

Map description:

A boat that traverses ocean paths using hydraulic power.

Location:

Olivine City, Vermilion City

Region:

Johto and Kanto

Generations:

II, IV

Location of S.S. Aqua in Johto and Kanto.

Pokémon world locations

Fast Ship S.S. Aqua (Japanese: こうそくせんアクアごう High-Speed Vessel Aqua-gō), commonly referred to as simply the S.S. Aqua (Japanese: アクアごう Aqua-gō) or Fast Ship (Japanese: こうそくせん High-Speed Vessel), is a ferry service that runs between Johto and Kanto.

It is one of the methods of transportation between Johto and Kanto in the Generation II and IV games, alongside the Magnet Train, walking, and flying or teleporting. It travels between Olivine City and Vermilion City. A player can only travel on this ship after defeating the Johto League.

Terminology

Fast Ship S.S. Aqua

Fast Ship S.S. Aqua (Japanese: こうそくせんアクアごう High-Speed Vessel Aqua)

Mentioned in the game dialogue. Some examples: "Welcome to Fast Ship S.S.Aqua.", "Fast Ship S.S. Aqua is en route to Vermilion City.", "Fast Ship S.S. Aqua has arrived in Vermilion City."

S.S. Aqua

S.S. Aqua (Japanese: アクアごう Aqua)

Mentioned in the game dialogue. Some examples: "How do you like S.S. Aqua's ride?", "S.S. Aqua uses jets to skim over the waves!"
Mentioned in the S.S. Ticket item description from Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, as well as Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

Fast Ship

Poké Seer saying that a Pichu was met on the Fast Ship

Fast Ship (Japanese: こうそくせん High-Speed Vessel)

Mentioned in the game dialogue. Some examples: "The Fast Ship will sail next Friday.", "The Fast Ship is a great place to meet and battle trainers.", "A voyage is best for getting over a broken heart. But a Fast Ship trip is too short for grieving."
The Fast Ship Pier is located in Olivine City, as said on a sign at the city.
In Pokémon Crystal, the name "Fast Ship" is used by the Poké Seer when talking about a Pokémon that was originally met on the ship (this is only legitimately possible if an Egg hatches on the ship).
In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, the player may not select S.S. Aqua on the Pokégear map because of the S.S. Aqua map glitch. However, the feature to select the ship is found in the game data, in which case it would be named "Fast Ship" on the map.

Voyages

The S.S. Aqua in Generation II

When the player first rides the ship to Vermilion City, a man will bump into them as they board and explain that he lost his granddaughter. When the player first enters the lower deck, a crewman will deny them access to the rest of the ship, asking them to locate a co-worker who is slacking off on the floor above. The crewman is a Sailor in a previously empty room (in Generation IV, the Sailor is found sleeping in a cabin before the player is asked to find him), and once he is defeated in a Pokémon battle, the crewman below will let the player pass. After traversing through the lower deck, the player will find the man's granddaughter trying to get the captain to play with her. The player takes her back to her grandfather, at which point the S.S. Aqua will arrive in Vermilion City and the player can disembark.

After the initial trip to Kanto (which can happen on any day of the week), the S.S. Aqua can be sailed from Kanto to Johto every Sunday and Wednesday and from Johto to Kanto each Monday and Friday. Trips after the initial one will end when the player sleeps in the bed in their cabin, which heals their party.

**S.S. Aqua Schedule**
Port	Days
Olivine	Monday and Friday
Vermilion	Wednesday and Sunday

Trainers can also be encountered and battled on the ship each voyage. In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, if the player defeats one or more Trainers on the ship and then boards it again for the same voyage (even on the same day), the Trainers can be battled and defeated again, and the player can keep re-boarding and re-battling the Trainers an unlimited number of times. However, in the Generation IV remakes, once an individual Trainer is defeated, that Trainer can never be battled again, regardless of when or how often the player re-boards the S.S. Aqua.

S.S. Aqua on the map

The Pokégear map when used aboard the S.S. Aqua

The S.S. Aqua appears as a fixed location on the Pokégear map, at the sea between Johto and Kanto. This is not always an accurate representation of the player's location on the map, given that it still appears at sea even after the announcement that the ship has docked either in Olivine City or Vermilion City.

In Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, there is some unused game data that would allow the player to select the S.S. Aqua in the Pokégear map. However, this is not allowed due to an oversight in those games. The map erroneously displays New Bark Town by default as the player's current place when in fact they are aboard the S.S. Aqua.

In the Pokédex map from Pokémon Stadium 2, the S.S. Aqua is seen near Olivine City.

The S.S. Aqua in Pokémon Adventures

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

The S.S. Aqua first appeared in Off Course with Corsola, where Lt. Surge unintentionally brought Crystal to the ship from Union Cave through a secret underwater tunnel. Soon after, the ship landed in Olivine City, which Crystal, having been in Union Cave to get to the western side of Johto, was pleased to reach. It was also revealed that Lt. Surge tended to use the ship for personal purposes.

In Sandslash Surprise, Lt. Surge used the S.S. Aqua to sail to the Whirl Islands, where Gold and Silver had wound up after getting defeated by the Masked Man at Lake of Rage. Soon after arriving, the ship was lifted into the air by Lugia's Psychic powers. After Lugia disappeared, the ship was safely brought back down.

Emerald arc

The S.S. Aqua briefly reappeared in Epilogue as one of the ships transporting masses of people, including the Day-Care Couple, Wilton, Kurt, Maizie, Professor Elm, Joey, DJ Mary, and Hiro, to visit the Battle Frontier.

HeartGold & SoulSilver arc

The ship made a brief cameo appearance in All About Arceus III as one of the locations where Silver and his Weavile discovered a Plate, receiving one from the ship's captain.

Trivia

Like the S.S. Anne and the S.S. Tidal, the S.S. Aqua has one non-player character on-board who mentions being seasick.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, there is a girl in the Olivine Port building who claims that the player has been in Kanto before regardless of if it being their first time there or not.
Travelling to either Kanto or Johto in the S.S. Aqua and then teleporting in the Generation II games causes the player to be taken to either the Vermilion or Olivine Pokémon Center as opposed to the last Pokémon Center they used in either region, while losing a battle sends the player to their cabin. The oddity does not occur when they use the Magnet Train, in which teleporting works as expected. This was fixed in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.
In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver:
- the captain of the ship implies that the S.S. Aqua travels to Sinnoh, as he mentions finding Plates there. However, the ship does not appear in any of the games that take place there.
- even after the player has obtained all 16 Plates and the Captain hands out Nuggets instead, he still refers to them as "mysterious things" he found from Sinnoh, as if he was still handing out Plates.
- it is possible to face Pokéfans Georgia and Jeremy in a 6-on-8 Double Battle.

Once the player enters the lower deck, a crewman will deny them access and ask them to locate a co-worker who is slacking off on the floor above. The crewman is a Sailor in a previously empty room, and once beaten the crewman below will let the player pass. After traversing through the lower deck, the player finds the man's granddaughter. The player takes her back to her grandfather, at which point the ferry arrives in Vermilion and the player can depart.
-After the initial trip to Kanto (which can happen on any day of the week), the S.S. Aqua can be sailed from Kanto to Johto every Sunday and Wednesday, and sails from Johto to Kanto each Monday and Friday. Trainers can be encountered on the ship each voyage, and may be battled. If the player returns to the city they boarded the ferry from and boards it again, they can battle a new set of trainers. Any of the trainers encountered on the ship cannot be battled ever again, however. Also on trips after the initial one, the voyage will end after the player sleeps in their bed.

+* Mentioned in the game dialogue. Some examples: "Welcome to <sc>Fast Ship S.S.Aqua</sc>.", "<sc>Fast Ship S.S. Aqua</sc> is en route to <sc>Vermilion City</sc>.", "<sc>Fast Ship S.S. Aqua</sc> has arrived in <sc>Vermilion City</sc>."
+===S.S. Aqua===
+S.S. Aqua (Japanese: アクアごう ''Aqua'')
+* Mentioned in the game dialogue. Some examples: "How do you like <sc>S.S. Aqua</sc>'s ride?", "<sc>S.S. Aqua</sc> uses jets to skim over the waves!"
+* Mentioned in the [[S.S. Ticket]] item description from {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, as well as {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
+===Fast Ship===
+[[File:Seer Fast Ship.png|thumb|right|Poké Seer saying that a Pichu was met on the Fast Ship]]
+Fast Ship (Japanese: こうそくせん ''High-Speed Vessel'')
+* Mentioned in the game dialogue. Some examples: "The <sc>Fast Ship</sc> will sail next Friday.", "The <sc>Fast Ship</sc> is a great place to meet and battle trainers.", "A voyage is best for getting over a broken heart. But a <sc>Fast Ship</sc> trip is too short for grieving."
+* The Fast Ship Pier is located in [[Olivine City]], as said on a sign at the city.
+* In {{game|Crystal}}, the name "Fast Ship" is used by the [[Poké Seer]] when talking about a Pokémon that was originally met on the ship (this is only legitimately possible if an {{pkmn|Egg}} hatches on the ship).
+* In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, the player may not select S.S. Aqua on the [[Pokégear]] [[Town Map|map]] because of the {{DL|List of glitches in Generation II|S.S. Aqua map glitch}}. However, the feature to select the ship is found in the game data, in which case it would be named "Fast Ship" on the map.
+==Voyages==
+[[File:SS Aqua GSC.png|thumb|left|200px|The S.S. Aqua in Generation II]]
+When the player first rides the ship to Vermilion City, a man will bump into them as they board and explain that he lost his granddaughter. When the player first enters the lower deck, a crewman will deny them access to the rest of the ship, asking them to locate a co-worker who is slacking off on the floor above. The crewman is a Sailor in a previously empty room (in Generation IV, the Sailor is found sleeping in a cabin before the player is asked to find him), and once he is defeated in a Pokémon battle, the crewman below will let the player pass. After traversing through the lower deck, the player will find the man's granddaughter trying to get the captain to play with her. The player takes her back to her grandfather, at which point the S.S. Aqua will arrive in Vermilion City and the player can disembark.
+After the initial trip to Kanto (which can happen on any day of the week), the S.S. Aqua can be sailed from Kanto to Johto every Sunday and Wednesday and from Johto to Kanto each Monday and Friday. Trips after the initial one will end when the player sleeps in the bed in their cabin, which heals their party.

+Trainers can also be encountered and battled on the ship each voyage. In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, if the player defeats one or more Trainers on the ship and then boards it again for the same voyage (even on the same day), the Trainers can be battled and defeated again, and the player can keep re-boarding and re-battling the Trainers an unlimited number of times. However, in the Generation IV remakes, once an individual Trainer is defeated, that Trainer can never be battled again, regardless of when or how often the player re-boards the S.S. Aqua.
+===S.S. Aqua on the map===
+[[File:S.S. Aqua map.png|thumb|right|The Pokégear map when used aboard the S.S. Aqua]]
+The S.S. Aqua appears as a fixed location on the [[Pokégear]] map, at the sea between [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]]. This is not always an accurate representation of the player's location on the map, given that it still appears at sea even after the announcement that the ship has docked either in [[Olivine City]] or [[Vermilion City]].
+In {{game2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, there is some unused game data that would allow the player to select the S.S. Aqua in the Pokégear map. However, this is not allowed due to [[List of glitches in Generation II#S.S. Aqua map glitch|an oversight]] in those games. The map erroneously displays [[New Bark Town]] by default as the player's current place when in fact they are aboard the S.S. Aqua.
+In the {{OBP|Pokédex|Stadium}} map from [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], the S.S. Aqua is seen near Olivine City.

+===={{MangaArc|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}====
+The S.S. Aqua first appeared in ''[[PS121|Off Course with Corsola]]'', where [[Lt. Surge]] unintentionally brought {{adv|Crystal}} to the ship from [[Union Cave]] through a secret underwater tunnel. Soon after, the ship landed in [[Olivine City]], which Crystal, having been in Union Cave to get to the western side of [[Johto]], was pleased to reach. It was also revealed that Lt. Surge tended to use the ship for personal purposes.
-=====Bottom Level=====
+In ''[[PS145|Sandslash Surprise]]'', Lt. Surge used the S.S. Aqua to sail to the [[Whirl Islands]], where {{adv|Gold}} and {{adv|Silver}} had wound up after getting defeated by the [[Masked Man]] at [[Lake of Rage]]. Soon after arriving, the ship was lifted into the air by {{p|Lugia}}'s {{t|Psychic}} powers. After Lugia disappeared, the ship was safely brought back down.

 ==Trivia==
-* In the port, there is a girl that mentions the player having been in Kanto before even if the player has not.
+* Like the [[S.S. Anne]] and the [[S.S. Tidal]], the S.S. Aqua has one [[non-player character]] on-board who mentions being seasick.
-* Strangely, if the player goes to sleep, wakes up and hears the announcement about docking, checking the Pokégear map in HeartGold and SoulSilver will still show the player in the ocean between Kanto and Johto.
+* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}, there is a girl in the Olivine Port building who claims that the player has been in [[Kanto]] before regardless of if it being their first time there or not.
+* Travelling to either [[Kanto]] or [[Johto]] in the S.S. Aqua and then {{m|teleport}}ing in the [[Generation II]] games causes the player to be taken to either the {{ci|Vermilion}} or {{ci|Olivine}} Pokémon Center as opposed to the last [[Pokémon Center]] they used in either [[region]], while losing a {{pkmn|battle}} sends the player to their cabin. The oddity does not occur when they use the [[Magnet Train]], in which teleporting works as expected. This was fixed in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
+* In {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}:
+** the captain of the ship implies that the S.S. Aqua travels to [[Sinnoh]], as he mentions finding [[Plate]]s there. However, the ship does not appear in any of the games that take place there.
+** even after the player has obtained all 16 Plates and the Captain hands out [[Nugget]]s instead, he still refers to them as "mysterious things" he found from Sinnoh, as if he was still handing out Plates.
+** it is possible to face {{tc|Poké Fan|Pokéfans}} Georgia and Jeremy in a 6-on-8 [[Double Battle]].
