Stunfisk's Bubbly Basin request asks you to show it a rug covered with underwater Pokémon. The Ocean Pals rug is a fixed pickup, so you can solve the request by exploring rather than waiting for a random discovery. Accept Stunfisk's request before returning with it.

        ## Search behind the play area

            - Cross the bridge from the central district toward the northern play area. Go behind the slide toward the northwestern cliff and look for the partly buried house.

            - Enter through the gaps in the rock beside the slide, clearing the obstructing blocks, or surface above the play area and descend into the exposed upper part of the same house.

            - Open the Poké Ball in the ruined home to collect the Ocean Pals rug. Keep it in your bag and return to Stunfisk to complete the conversation.

        ## Check the design if the delivery fails

        The blue Swampert-themed rug found elsewhere nearby is a different object. A sea-colored rug is not enough: check the item name and the group of aquatic Pokémon shown on it before searching for another copy.

        ## Keep your own copy after the request

        Stunfisk returns the rug after examining it, so the request does not require giving up the decoration permanently. If you want extras, take an object reference for the 3D Printer. The original Poké Ball is a one-time pickup; revisiting an empty house will not make it reappear.
