You can acquire Wild-Caught Fried Shrimp in two ways: buy them from merchants at Alola Beach in Honolulu, or catch them while swimming in the same area.

The quickest method is to swim to Grayson’s Weapons at Sea or Nolan’s Boat (both shown on the map above). These merchants appear only after swimming in the nearby ocean areas.

You only need one shrimp for Kennosuke, and they cost a mere $1.60 each, allowing for multiple purchases without significant expense.

Catching Shrimp While Swimming

Swimming in Alola Beach offers a free alternative, as the game doesn't consume health or currency while swimming. Simply swim to fish silhouettes and press the "Catch" prompt.

However, Wild-Caught Fried Shrimp are relatively rare (we caught only four after about 50 attempts). Purchasing from a merchant is generally more efficient.

If you lack funds, quickly defeat a few gangsters or thugs along the beach to earn enough for the shrimp.
