Pokémon Ranch Story

The foam squirrels direct the flower buds to shuttle through the flower fields, collecting nectar.

After going around in circles, I realized I couldn't really get involved.

After thinking for a moment, Xia Mu took out his fishing rod from the hut, called his Kangaskhan, and the two of them, one human and one Pokémon, went to the beach.

Looking into the distance, they arrived at an area where they could see the shadows of fish. Xia Mu took down a small stool and cast a line into the sea.

The kangaroo lay listlessly beside him, gazing at the blue sky and unable to resist yawning.

A large hand landed on the kangaroo's head, and Xia Mu gently stroked it, saying, "It's okay to take a nap. I'll wake you up when we get back."

Kangaroo: "Long-long~"

The kangaroo nuzzled its head against his palm, and it closed its eyes in comfort, taking a short nap.

The sea and sky in Carlos are still so blue, like two identical mirrors, making it exceptionally beautiful.

With such a beautiful view in front of him, Xia Mu couldn't help but relax a little.

Just then, the fishing rod in my hand trembled slightly.

Another sneak attack...

Quickly regaining his senses, Xia Mu abruptly pulled up the fishing rod, and with a silvery-white arc, a small blue and white figure was caught on the hook and pulled up.

Blue body, braided white tentacles, upside down.

The Pokémon commonly found in the Kalos Sea is Oolong.

May you have good fortune upon opening!

The seafood rice we had for lunch wasn't wasted; we're sure to have a great time today.

The squid, caught on the fishhook, struggled violently, thrashing its body.

Xia Mu grabbed the fishing line, a friendly smile on his face, and reached out to grab it. "Don't rush, don't rush, I'll take it off for you now."

Alright, the squid really stopped moving and obediently let Xia Mu remove the fishhook.

Just as Xia Mu was about to reach out and touch it, the squid's head started flashing with light.

"Oops!"

The moment that thought crossed Xia Mu's mind, before she could react further, everything went completely white in front of her.

Watch out, you fool.

Alright, the squid gave a sly smile and seized the opportunity to leap into the sea.

The white light before his eyes gradually disappeared, and his hands were now empty.

"A cunning little fellow."

Shaking his head, Xia Mu muttered to himself and cast the line again.

Most of the 'good squid' have this kind of personality: they are hard to get close to and cunning.

But in comparison, their evolved form, the King Squid, is the real villain.

There was plenty of time today, but Xia Mu's face soon darkened.

Looking at the squid that was hooked up again, I flicked its forehead with my finger. The squid whimpered and covered its head with its tentacles.

"Don't come again!"

"Okay~"

Xia Mu let Hao La You go again.

He rebaited and cast again, but a bad feeling crept into his heart.

Two minutes later, Xia Mu grabbed the squid and threw it forcefully into the sea, leaving only a series of terrified squid cries on the surface.

Now you should know what fear is!

Ten minutes later, Xia Mu woke up the kangaroo, put away his fishing rod, and walked towards the ranch with a dark face.

A giant squid peeked half its head out of the water – so cute!

Upon returning to the ranch, Xia Mu learned of a major event from Little Laplace.

"What? You're leaving tomorrow? Didn't you say you were going to stay a few more days?"

Little Laplace: "Lap-pap~" (It's the leader's command.)

Upon hearing this, Xia Mu looked at the elderly Laplace in the group, who was gazing towards the sea.

"Okay! Come visit us next time too." Xia Mu reached out and stroked it, comforting Little Laplace in return. "I'll cook dinner early tonight and make the coconut soup you've been craving."

The little guy happily licked Xia Mu, and he helplessly pushed Little Laplace away, pointing to the foam squirrels not far away, "Go say goodbye to them, I'm going to cook now."

Laplace Jr.'s departure was somewhat sudden, but it's too late to change anything now.

I was getting ready to go back and cook when I passed by a motor lizard.

It ran excitedly towards him, clutching three eggs, to show him its harvest of the day.

Xia Mu patted it, then smiled slyly, intending to tease the motorcycle lizard.

"Motorcycle lizard, are these three eggs male or female?"

The motorcycle lizard lowered its head, looked left and right, and a big question mark appeared next to its head.

"I'm going to cook. Motor Lizard, you can think about it slowly."

After saying that, Xia Mu ran off in a flash, humming a cheerful little tune.

The bewildered look on the Motor Lizard's face is truly adorable.

Back in the cabin, I opened the refrigerator and took a look.

Xia Mu then began preparing dinner to bid farewell to the Laplace tribe.

He couldn't help but think of the noisy birds. How are they now?

Chapter 77 Upgrading the Ranch Cabin

Lake Heartbeat in the Sinnoh region.

At dawn, the noisy bird, as usual, flew by with its flock and landed at the top of the canopy of an ancient tree.

The noisy bird quietly gazes in one direction; that's where its home is.

He scratched his paws and flew down to the shore of Xinqi Lake.

It calls out with its sharp cry, summoning the Lake Pokémon.

Soon, a large, sleepy-eyed mushroom emerged from the lake, pouting and glaring at the noisy bird.

"Quack~"

Amrid tapped the noisy bird with his two tails before saying, "You can write a letter to let them know you are safe."

"Gah~" (That's right!)

The noisy bird suddenly realized what was happening and plucked a large green leaf from the canopy of the ancient tree.

I've been thinking for a while now, but I don't know what to write!

After thinking for a moment, the chatterbox looked at the Pokémon yawning in the lake.

Got it!

Xia Mu is so smart, he will definitely understand what he is trying to say.

……

The pasture coast at dawn.

Xia Mu saw off the Laplace clan. The one he treated yesterday had been given a powerful wound medicine, the bandages had been removed, and it was fine as long as it didn't fight.

The melodious singing faded into the distance until the Laplace tribe completely disappeared off the golden coastline.

Xia Mu hugged the foam squirrel that was waving vigorously in his arms, scratched its chin with his big hand, and pinched its ears. "Don't be sad, little Laplace will come to play with you again next time."

"Lili!"

The foam squirrel snuggled into Xia Mu's arms and chirped crisply, indicating that it wanted to prepare a gift for little Laplace next time.

"Okay!" Xia Mu gently stroked it, then turned and walked back. "Have you thought about what gift to give?"

Lili—

The foam squirrel shook its head shyly.

"No rush, you still have time."

Carrying the foam squirrel Xia Mu back to the ranch, as they walked through the flower field, the foam squirrel struggled to jump down and play with Hua Beibei.

Xia Mu let it be, and called Motor Lizard to go out and bring back yesterday's haul, and record it in the ledger.

January 14, 198

Expenditure: 500

Income: 6000 (clay and honey)

Remaining funds: 110000

】

That's 110,000!

The ranch also has no shortage of other materials.

Xia Mu no longer hesitated; he prepared to upgrade the ranch cabin and expand it again.

First, I took Mini Fu down from the windowsill and let the little guy go play with the foam squirrel. He stood right in front of the ranch cabin.

Xia Mu silently chanted in his mind, "Upgrade."

brush!

A beam of light seemed to flash before my eyes, enveloping the ranch cabin in front of me.

Under Xia Mu's watchful gaze, the small house grew taller and larger, and its style also changed slightly.

This process only lasted a moment, and by the time the Pokémon realized it, the ranch cabin had already been upgraded.

The first foam squirrel to rush to Xia Mu quickly climbed onto Xia Mu's shoulder, looked him over with its small eyes, and then asked curiously.

"Milli?"

Squeeze the soft, big ears, then hug the foam squirrel and give it a big kiss.

These fluffy little guys are born to be eaten by their trainers!

Once all the other Pokémon from the ranch had arrived, Xia Mu said, "I just did a second expansion of the ranch cabin. Would you all like to take a look?"

"Lili!"

The foam squirrel was the first to eagerly sign up, raising its little paw.

Hua Beibei and Mini Fu followed closely behind.

The marsupial and the motor lizard nodded in agreement.

Three buzzing bats had already perched on the window, their eyes wide with curiosity as they peered inside.

The only ones who might not be interested are the mud-drawn horses, their expressions calm and still, their mouths constantly chewing, spitting out clay mixed with saliva.

"Come in! This little house will stay with us for a very long time."

Xia Mu glanced at the LV3 Ranch Hut just now. Putting aside other materials, the Alliance Coins alone would cost a million, so he wouldn't be able to consider it for the next year or two.

Several new rooms have been added to the first floor, and the kitchen and living room have been enlarged, more than enough to accommodate all the Pokémon.

The kitchen was transformed into a semi-open space, and a small dining area was added.

Next door is the bathroom, which is spacious enough to fit a large bathtub.

After finishing farm work, you can take a relaxing bath in it, and you can even bring your Pokémon along.

There is a guest room on each side of the living room, which is used to entertain guests.
