Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 213 Playing in the Snow and the Sick Frost Milk Fairy

After learning that the entire mountain could be their home.

The Styracod immediately began diligently working to make snow. Its dorsal fins absorbed heat from the air and converted it into ice energy.

At this point, its inherent function came into play a significant role. The temperature in the south in May is already quite high, which is perfect for the Styracosaurus to utilize its special abilities.

After absorbing most of the heat from the mountain, the Styracosaurus moved on to other parts of the pasture to absorb the heat there.

After a busy day, the Styracosaurus finally covered the entire mountain with snow and ice. The Snow Children happily leaped and frolicked in the snow and ice; now they no longer had to live in their previous cave.

"Micro-based~!"

This place looks almost exactly the same as the snow-capped mountain they had previously been on in Tundra City.

This massive artificial snowmaking operation also attracted the attention of other Pokémon on the ranch.

Upon seeing the snowy landscape, Arcanine immediately took Chip Wobbler and jumped into the waist-deep snow.

The woolly sheep have thick enough wool to withstand the cold, and they hop and skip around in the snow.

The lambs, however, hesitated. They tried to step into the snow, but the icy coldness immediately made them pull their hooves back.

Seeing this, Su Yu smiled and said:

"Wear these. I bought them for you last winter."

As he spoke, Su Yu took out the complete set of warm clothes he had previously bought for the Pokémon on the ranch, including cotton boots. However, after putting them on his mount, a little sheep, they actually looked a bit too small.

"Looks like you've all grown taller; these clothes are getting too small for you."

Su Yu said helplessly, thinking that he would go to town to buy it in a few days.

However, it's probably difficult to buy warm clothes at this time of year, so in the end... I might have to make them myself.

"Meow~" It's okay, we're not actually that afraid of the cold.

The riding sheep immediately responded. They rushed into the snow and played with the other Pokémon.

Just then, Alcremie and Splice arrived. As soon as they arrived, the Pokémon immediately started a snowball fight. Seeing this, Su Yu smiled and said:

"Don't play too wildly, or you'll catch a cold."

At this time, the Styracosaurus was still acting as the atmosphere maker on the mountain, constantly waving its hands to create snowfall.

"Micro-based~!"

As the snowball fight raged, the Snow Child suddenly launched a sneak attack on Su Yu. Seeing this, Su Yu feigned anger and said:

"You little brat, you actually dared to ambush me?"

Picking up a snowball, Su Yu was about to rush forward to fight the Snorunt. However, several Pokémon suddenly emerged from the snow; these were the Snorunts that had been lying in ambush there.

They pinned Su Yu down in the snow, and at that moment, the surrounding Pokémon began throwing snowballs at him.

"Mama~!" Quick, now!

"Awoo~" I didn't throw this biggest snowball, it wasn't me, it wasn't me 凸(｀0)凸.

"Go for it!" This is a rare opportunity, let's go!

When Su Yu got up from the snow and brushed the snow off his clothes, he saw a giant farfalle standing behind him, holding a snowball and about to throw it.

Su Yu: ?

Green Onion Duck: "Quack...o(Д)っ!" No, it wasn't me! I haven't even thrown a single snowball yet, you have to believe me!

"..." Su Yu helplessly wiped the snowballs off his face. So, you just threw them away in the end, right?

"Quack..." Upon seeing this, the Farfetch'd took off running, looking quite flustered.

Oh no, the rancher is looking at the food with that kind of eyes!

The Styracod, watching this scene from afar atop the mountain, couldn't help but nod in approval.

Hmm... this ranch is still so cozy. It would be wonderful to live here.

……

……

That evening.

While having dinner at the restaurant, Su Yu moved the small television from the old house to this location.

While eating and watching TV, the Styracosaurus held a small spoon in its hand, seemingly not quite used to using it yet.

First, it froze each of the energy cubes to make chilled food. Then, it took a small spoon and started scooping.

After trying for a long time, it still couldn't scoop up a single energy cube. Finally, it simply picked up the whole plate and poured the energy cubes into its mouth.

"Spine...(*￣~￣)"

Indeed, it's more convenient to eat this way.

While eating, Alcremie seemed to feel dizzy and suddenly swayed and collapsed onto the table.

Upon seeing this, Su Yu was stunned for a moment, then immediately ran over, helped it up, and did a quick check-up.

"Her body temperature is a bit higher than normal for an Alcremie, probably because she played wildly in the snow during the day and caught a cold..."

Colds do exist in the Pokémon world. After all, even someone as physically strong as Ash caught a cold from constantly training in the water with Greninja.

Su Yu had previously speculated that it might be because the virus in the Pokémon world was stronger, which is why even someone like Ash could catch a cold.

After traveling to the Pokémon world, medical cases indeed proved his conjecture.

Looking up at the other Pokémon, he saw they all casting concerned glances at Alcremie. Seeing this, Su Yu smiled and said:

"It's nothing, I just caught a cold."

"You guys should also be more careful in the future, and don't catch a cold from playing in the snow again!"

As he spoke, Su Yu carried Frost Fairy upstairs and placed it on the bed.

At this point, the cold symptoms have almost fully manifested, and it's precisely when you start to feel unwell.

Covering the Alcremie with a blanket, Su Yu said softly to it:

"Go to sleep, you'll feel better after a while."

"I'll get you some water. Remember to drink it if you feel thirsty. You really need to drink water when you have a cold."

As she spoke, Su Yu poured a glass of water and placed it on the bedside table.

When he returned, Alcremie was already asleep.

I tiptoed out of the room and back to the dining room.

At this point, all the Pokémon showed particular concern, especially the Styrax.

It felt very guilty, thinking that it was because the snow it made was too cold that caused the Frost Milk Fairy to catch a cold.

Seeing this, Su Yu patted its shoulder and laughed:

"It's okay, a cold is really not a serious illness, you'll get better soon."

"Don't blame yourself. It's normal to catch a cold while playing in the snow. This wasn't your fault."

"ridge……"

Upon hearing this, the Styracosaurus nodded, but its eyes still betrayed its worry.

For a Pokémon as fond of helping others as it is, it's truly upsetting that its good intention of making snow for other Pokémon to play with ended up causing trouble.

"How about this, I'm going to make some brown sugar ginger tea for Alcremie. Could you go to the field and dig up some ginger for me?"

"I'll have Big Green Duck take you to Jiangtian, you know exactly where it is."

After thinking for a moment, Su Yu said this.

Upon hearing this, the Styracosaurus immediately perked up. It eagerly accepted the task, grabbed the flashlight Su Yu had given it, and went out with Farfetch'd.

Seeing this, Su Yu shook his head helplessly. He went back to the kitchen, found some brown sugar and black tea, and waited for the Styracosaurus and the others to return.

Fortunately, thanks to the special abilities of the little sheep mount, the crops in the fields grow very well all year round. Although this season is not the ginger harvesting season, the ginger in the pasture can still be harvested.

Led by the leek duck, the schizothorax soon returned with a basket of ginger.
