S.S. Anne: Difference between revisions

|translated_name=S.S. St. Anne

The '''{{wp|Steamship|S.S.}} Anne''' (Japanese: '''{{j|サント・アンヌ{{tt|号|ごう}}}}''' ''S.S. St. Anne'') is a well-known luxury cruise liner which [[Transportation in the Pokémon world|sails]] the {{pkmn|world}}, stopping annually in [[Vermilion City]], [[Kanto]].

==Layout==

Once the captain is healed, the S.S. Anne will sail away the moment player exits the ship. Although it is said to return once a year, none of the games in which it appears have a [[time]] system capable of measuring this, and the ship will not be seen again. The only way in which one can get the ship to remain is by losing a battle and [[black out|blacking out]], thus returning to the [[Pokémon Center]] (or using a [[#Rumors|Generation I glitch]]).

In Pokémon {{3v2|Red|Blue|Yellow}}, as well as their remakes {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, a truck was placed in the [[Vermilion Harbor|S.S. Anne's port]], which seems to serve no evident purpose except as scenery, and was programmed into the game as a floor tile. With scenery being very sparse in the [[Generation I]] games, and this being one of the few sprites with no other purpose than to exist in one spot, fans began speculating that another purpose existed for this truck. The truck cannot be accessed without {{m|Surf}}, which the player would not normally have or be able to use before the S.S. Anne departs.

One rumor claimed that the truck could be moved with {{m|Strength}}, and {{p|Mew}} could be found underneath it. This rumor is untrue.

The ship will not set sail if the {{player}} challenges a {{pkmn|Trainer}} after obtaining the move Cut and loses the battle. The player will be returned to the last [[Pokémon Center]] visited, and the ship will not leave the dock, making it accessible later in the game when the player had obtained Strength and {{m|Surf}}.

Alternatively, only in the [[Generation I]] games, the player can take advantage of a [[glitch]] which causes the ship to reappear after it has left. To perform this glitch, the player must stand one tile above and to the left of the sailor guarding the harbor; take a step right and hit the Start button at the same time, causing the menu to pop up; save and reboot; verify that the player is facing right; and without moving, select a Pokémon to Surf and verify that it will be surfing on top of the sailor and walk down to the harbor, where the S.S. Anne sits at the dock.

The captain of the S.S. Anne appeared briefly in the [[Pokémon Origins]] episode ''[[PO02|File 2 - Cubone]]''. He was seen giving {{OBP|Red|Origins}} {{HM|01|Cut}} after he had helped him to recover from his seasickness.

* In the [[Generation I]] games and {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, an undercover [[International Police|Global Police]] agent appears on the S.S. Anne (using the overworld sprite of a {{tc|Gentleman}}) in pursuit of [[Team Rocket]]. Some fans have speculated that this agent is [[Looker]].<!-- https://www.google.com/?q=ss+anne+looker -->

''St. Anne'' ({{j|サント・アンヌ}}) is the name of the computer in [[Game Freak]]'s {{wp|Sega Mega Drive}} title ''{{wp|Pulseman}}''.

The Japanese word [http://jisho.org/search/%E5%8F%B7%20%23kanji 号] ''gō'', in this context, means "model"; however, it is a Japanese-only descriptor and is not meant to be translated. The English localization uses the equivalent "S.S.", short for {{wp|steamship}}, and drops "St." from the name.
