[[File:Emerald Dock.png|thumb|right|320px|Dock in | '''Dock''' (Japanese: '''ツガ''' ''Tsuga'') is a character in {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}} who plays a minor role in the {{player}}'s story progression. He works at [[Stern's Shipyard]] and was commissioned to design a ferry. | ||
==In the games== | |||
Before arriving in [[Slateport City]], the player is told by [[Mr. Stone]]'s assistant to deliver a package to [[Captain Stern]] in Slateport. However, Stern is inaccessible until the player talks to Dock. After doing that, the [[Team Magma]]{{sup/3|R}}/[[Team Aqua|Aqua]]{{sup/3|S}}{{sup/3|E}} [[Grunt]]s, previously preventing the player from entering the [[Oceanic Museum]] (where Captain Stern is), are no longer blocking it off. From that point, the player can advance farther in the game. | |||
==In the Pokémon Adventures manga== | Much later in the storyline, [[Mr. Briney]] decides to help with the work on the ferry, and Dock notifies the player when they talk to him. | ||
Dock (called '''Tuga''' in the Chuang Yi translation) was taken hostage by [[Team Magma]] in order to make Captain Stern give information on the [[Submarine Explorer 1]] project. He suffered several injuries from [[Mack]]'s Pokémon. | |||

Hi, I'm <sc>Dock</sc>. <sc>[[Captain Stern|Capt. Stern]]</sc> commissioned me to design a ferry. Oh! That there… Are they <sc>{{DL|List of key items in Generation III|Devon Goods}}</sc>? But, hmm… This won't do… <sc>Capt. Stern</sc> went off somewhere. He said he had some work to do. Could I get you to go find <sc>Capt. Stern</sc> and deliver that to him?"'' | |||
* After talking to Captain Stern | |||
: ''"Shipbuilding is an art. A lot of things can't be figured out just by calculating. I really could use advice from a veteran who knows the seas…"'' | |||
