Appearance

The Part-Time Pirate is a black short-sleeved shirt worn over a long-sleeved shirt with horizontal white and green stripes. There are three Tentatek logos on the short-sleeved shirt: a small white one on the left side of the chest, a large, lime green one on the back, and a tiny black one on an equally tiny green tag at the bottom. Also at the bottom, the end of the long-sleeved shirt can be seen poking out.

Abilities

The Part-Time Pirate comes with Damage Up as the primary ability. As a 1-star item, the Part-Time Pirate comes with one additional slot for secondary abilities, which may be increased to a maximum of three slots with a Super Sea Snail or 30,000 cash for each slot. Since it is made by the Tentatek gear brand, it has a higher chance of rolling Ink Recovery Up and a lower chance of rolling Quick Super Jump to fill its secondary ability slot.

Trivia

• The name is most likely a reference to the Pirate-Stripe Tee, a shirt covered in horizontal stripes. "Part-time" would refer to the fact that only some of the Part-Time Pirate is striped.
