Lauren's Piplup

This Piplup is a -type Pokémon owned by Lauren.
==Biography==
When Ash and Goh were at the Vermilion City Port, they saw Piplup coming from the sea, looked worn out. While they were terrified all of a sudden, Piplup passed out. After eating some food, it started swimming at the bathroom sink. Later, they found that this Piplup belonged to a Trainer named Lauren who was currently at the Sinnoh region. Therefore, Ash and Goh went to the Sinnoh Region.
They found out that there is a Drift Ice Race happening at Sinnoh. Lauren apologized for being late because she lost her glasses on the way. When Lauren greeted Piplup, it ignored her. Then they found that the Piplup had a deep rivalry against Lauren's Croagunk because they both were found in a similar way (though Piplup came a lot earlier) by bringing the glasses Lauren often lost. But when Croagunk beat Piplup in a small race, Lauren was impressed, making Piplup heartbroken and making it run away. Then, Piplup wanted to defeat Croagunk in the Drift Ice Race, which Ash and Goh entered as well. During the race, Croagunk and Piplup were tied neck to neck as they swam to the finishing line. The race was interrupted by Team Rocket and their Pelipper. Piplup and Croagunk were still racing as Team Rocket fought the boys. Lauren's glasses fell once again into the water and, putting their rivalry aside, both of them went to aid her. At the end, the race was cancelled due to the interference of Team Rocket, but Piplup's and Croagunk's rivalry ended.PJ008
