In [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]], [[Jasmine]]'s {{p|Ampharos}}, [[Amphy]], appeared in ''[[PM091|Light Up The Lighthouse!!]]'', where it had fallen ill to the point where it was no longer able to light up the [[Olivine Lighthouse|lighthouse]] in [[Olivine City]]. Jasmine had {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} go to a pharmacy to fetch the [[Secret Medicine|SecretPotion]] needed to heal Amphy. After acquiring the SecretPotion, the medicine was lost at sea. Jasmine became even more worried when a ship arrived at the lighthouse, since Amphy still could not light it up. However, when [[Red's Clefairy]] ate some pills, Clefairy glowed enough to give the ships light and save them from crashing. This made Amphy feel better.
