Pokémon Ranch Story

During this process, Xia Mu gradually poured in the powder made from the ground crest feathers of the Zapdos.

He stirred the two together thoroughly, adding butter to enhance the milky aroma and milk to improve the texture.

Once they are all mashed into a paste and indistinguishable from each other, sprinkle with chopped green onions as a garnish, and a plate of golden mashed potatoes is ready.

The foam squirrels were already gathered around the table, waiting for their meal. Xia Mu picked up the golden mashed potatoes and placed them in the center.

With its golden-yellow color, the foam squirrel observed curiously, while the motor lizard couldn't wait to scoop up a spoonful and put it in its mouth to savor it.

"Lili—"

The Bubble Squirrel pointed at the Motorola and exclaimed in surprise, attracting the attention of all the other Pokémon.

The motorcycle lizard is covered in a golden hue, which is one of the effects of cooking golden mashed potatoes.

Chapter 65 Zapdos: Should I Avoid Its Edge?

【

Thunderbolt Potato Mash (S): A legendary dish made with Zapdos crest feathers and golden potatoes. It is said that consuming it grants the ability to control lightning.

Food Effect: Lightning Moment (Electric-type Pokémon only). After consuming this food, the Pokémon will briefly transform into a golden form and return to its peak condition. (Duration depends on the Pokémon's strength.)

Review: A unique dish; avoid eating in enclosed spaces.

】

"what?"

Xia Mu was surprised, and then saw the roof of the ranch cabin blasted open by a bolt of lightning that fell from the sky.

The crackling electric current surged violently, all of it flowing into the Motor Lizard's body.

"Gah-"

The motor lizard roared excitedly; it sensed it.

Power... immense power filled the entire body of the Motor Lizard.

With a whoosh, the Motor Lizard soared into the sky and disappeared from everyone's sight.

"Long o?"

"Lili~"

"..."

The Pokémon looked at the hole in the ceiling, then at Natsuki, confused as to what had happened.

What's wrong with that motorcycle lizard? Is it trying to destroy the house?

"Boom~"

A thunderclap sounded from high above the ground, and a dark shadow swooped down outside the small house.

Xia Mu stood up and brushed the dust off his clothes. "Want to take a look at the Motor Lizard? Its current appearance will give you quite a shock."

Leading a group of Pokémon out of the hut, a blue-purple dragon Pokémon with a streamlined metallic body, somewhat similar to a Motosaurus, appeared before them.

Milton, one of the cover gods of Pokémon Generation IX, is the future god.

Its overall design resembles a sophisticated machine, with a gray face, claws, abdomen, and tail, and electric arcs running across its surface.

Two pairs of lightning tentacles extend from the sides of Millerdon's head armor, pixel particles appear in his black pupils, and a constant purple-yellow energy surrounds his body.

It hovers in the air using jet engines in its lower body's legs, and its lightning-shaped tail swings like a windmill.

The cold and stern atmosphere around him was shattered. Millerton roared and quickly transformed into a bolt of lightning, knocking Xia Mu down.

The electronic tongue swept across Xia Mu's cheek, sending a tingling sensation through her.

Seeing Milton like this, Xia Mu felt relieved.

Milton is still that same old rascal, and they've always been a Pokémon.

After a while, Xia Mu finally pushed Millerton away.

The Pokémon swarmed around, observing cautiously.

The foam squirrel reached out its little hand and poked, "Li li~"

(Are you a motor lizard?)

"Gah!"

Milton excitedly spun around to show everyone.

Then it reached out its paws, picked up the foam squirrel, and placed it on its back.

The foam squirrel was initially too frightened to move, but once it sensed there was no danger, it climbed onto Millerton's back and brushed its tail against it as a sign of affection.

The Pokémon dreamed that Bubble Squirrel was not in danger, and received an answer from Natsuki.

The handsome Pokémon in front of you is that silly and goofy Motosquirrel.

Surrounded by a group of Pokémon, Milton was thoroughly enjoying himself.

It lets the little ones stand on it and play, for this is the warmth called 'home' that it has been searching for for countless years but has never found.

Three minutes later, Milton was enveloped in a ball of lightning; the "Lightning Hour" had arrived.

The familiar motorcycle lizard excitedly emerged, running towards Xia Mu and proudly raising its little head.

The silence seemed to say, 'Xia Mu, Xia Mu, wasn't I cool just now? I'm the god of the future, and I'll protect you from now on.'

"So handsome, so handsome, you're the most handsome."

Xia Mu pressed down on the big head and said with a smile.

Both Milton and Guleton are handsome; the difference is that one is wildly handsome, and the other is technologically handsome.

"Lili!" The foam squirrel climbed onto Xia Mu's shoulder, pointed its little finger at the roof, and smiled slyly.

"Gah..."

Upon seeing the hole in the roof, the motorcycle lizard lost all its energy and hung its head in dejection.

She tugged at Xia Mu, looking at him pitifully, begging for forgiveness.

Looking helplessly at the two little guys, Xia Mu scratched the foam squirrel and said to the motorcycle lizard, "It's not your fault, I didn't think it through."

"Let's eat first. Later, Motor Lizard, you'll have to help me repair the house. You can't go play, okay?"

Seeing that Xia Mu didn't intend to pursue the matter, the Motor Lizard immediately recovered, nodding vigorously while making faces at the Foam Chipmunk to scare it.

Sitting back down at the table, Xia Mu glanced at the large bowl of mashed potatoes and felt a pang of regret.

The ranch currently only has one Electric-type Pokémon, 'Motosaurus', so eating other Pokémon won't have any effect.

Now, even if Motolizard continues to eat, it cannot gain any more boosts; an Electric-type Pokémon only has one chance.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Mu looked at the other Pokémon and said, "Everyone, come and have a taste."

The unique flavor of the mashed potatoes exploded in his mouth, and Xia Mu nodded in enjoyment.

The other Pokémon also showed expressions of enjoyment, but they couldn't receive any enhancement from the cooking.

After the meal, Xia Mu and the motorcycle lizards worked together to repair the hole in the roof.

Replace the broken planks with new ones.

Xia Mu's craftsmanship was decent enough; he managed to get it done, albeit barely.

After a long day at work, he lay lazily on the belly of the kangaroo, enjoying the warm spring breeze, and occasionally patted the foam squirrel with both hands.

I waved to the motor lizard that was chasing butterflies on the grass not far away.

The motorcycle lizard came galloping over, then came to a sudden stop.

"Gah?"

"Motorcycle Lizard, can you transform now?"

Xia Mu touched his head and asked.

The motorcycle lizard assumed battle mode, assessed its own power, and gestured with its claws.

The mototor lizard cannot maintain the Millerton state for long; there is a time limit.

Three minutes, exactly the same as Ultraman's transformation time.

Having understood what the Motolizard meant, Xia Mu instructed it to call the noisy bird over.

They should also settle things regarding Zapdos; whether to fight or make peace, there needs to be an explanation.

With their three-minute lightning strikes, Motostoma and Mega Kangaskhan have no problem taking down a Zapdos.

……

As night fell, he instructed the buzzing bat to guard the house.

Xia Mu brought the motorcycle lizard and the noisy bird to the beach, gesturing to the motorcycle lizard with his eyes.

With a roar, the Motor Lizard transformed into Milton in the lightning.

Xia Mu rode the electric motorcycle, which was full of futuristic technology, while the noisy bird stood on Milton's head to give directions.

Millerton shot into the sky with a sudden burst of speed, its head unfurling a pair of shimmering, futuristic wings.

Its hind limbs spewed out blue jets of steam, which transformed into a bolt of lightning that pierced the darkness as it sped toward the sea.

Poseidon Cave.

"Buzzing~"

Zapdos swiftly stood up, its eyes flashing with vengeance.

That Pokémon is here, and this time he'll definitely get his revenge for baldness.

Just as Zapdos was about to leave, after spending several days with it, the flock of birds that had accepted Zapdos chirped and surrounded it, trying to persuade it to leave.

He kept saying unpleasant things, like, "You're no match for them!" or "They've made thorough preparations this time!"

All of his words were meant to boost the morale of others and diminish his own, which infuriated Zapdos.

Fuming~

(I'm avoiding its attacks? I'm Zapdos! Watch how I beat it to a pulp.)

With a loud cry, Zapdos burst out of the Sea God's Cave.

Before He could react, a bolt of blue-purple lightning suddenly struck down.

Chapter 66 Zapdos Friendship +1...

High in the sky, Xia Mu patted Milerton and asked a question.

Why did you suddenly hit it?

"Ouch!"

Millerton twisted his neck, turned his head toward Xia Mu, and blinked in confusion.

It's as if they're saying, "We're not here to fight, are we?"

He sighed and said, "Let's go down first. We'll have to ask Chatterbox to help us lure Zapdos out so we can have a proper talk and hopefully resolve this peacefully."

"Quack~"

The noisy bird chirped twice, granting Xia Mu's request.

Millerton, on the other hand, was unhappy and pouted.

There's no need for all that trouble. It was already able to make Zapdos bald just by recovering some of its strength.

Now in its strongest form, how could a tiny Zapdos possibly be a match for it?

Although it seemed unnecessary, Milton obediently followed Xia Mu's instructions, and the two Pokémon landed outside the Sea God Cave.

The crackling of electricity raged within the pit, and a few golden-black feathers drifted down randomly.
