Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 293 Suicune's Exclusive Dish

After Hoopa and the others left.

The next day, as soon as Su Yu stepped out, he saw that the ground in the ranch was riddled with holes.

Not far away, there were also large piles of ore.

The dragon-headed gopher is constantly transporting minerals between the surface and deep underground.

"Did you dig all of these out?"

Seeing this, Su Yu stepped forward and asked.

After evolving into Excadrill, the increase in destructive power is just too much...

The dragon-headed ground squirrel, belatedly realizing the damage it had caused to the ranch, appeared quite flustered.

"It's okay, I can call the construction team to come and fix it, you don't need to be afraid."

Su Yu said helplessly.

While calling the construction team, he also casually called over a mine owner.

The mine owner's Pokémon is a massive Coalossal. Its enormous size gives it a powerful, intimidating presence.

"Based on the quality of your minerals, I estimate they can be worth 800,000 Alliance Coins. However, the exact amount will depend on the weight after they are weighed."

Seeing Su Yu examining his massive mountain of charcoal, the shopkeeper said with great pride:

"Hehehe, doesn't it look cool? This Coalossal has been with me for ten years, and I've hardly ever seen a Pokémon bigger than it."

However, the boss soon noticed. The three legendary Titans in the real world were much larger than described in the Pokédex.

When Regirock passed by, the ground around him even trembled slightly.

……

After the deal was struck with the mine owner, the construction team arrived quickly.

They used Pokémon to fill in the holes in the ranch, and then their little sheep trotted over and used the grassy area to encourage plants to grow.

Su Yu returned to the house and continued trying to make Suijun's special dishes.

At noon, a young man wearing a straw hat also arrived at the ranch.

He was a newcomer to the pasture, and since he had not yet caught a Pokémon that could control pests, he came to hire Poliwag and others.

After learning the young man's purpose, Su Yu led him to the pond.

At this time, the three patriarchs were still practicing their singing in the pond. After evolving into the Mosquito Coil Frog King, they had acquired extremely bright calls.

These days, they are preparing for a concert, so they need to practice in advance.

Upon seeing Su Yu arrive, they stopped singing. Su Yu then said:

"Just choose one of these groups that you like. After that, they will follow you to the ranch."

"Generally, they will stay on your ranch for a few days until the infestation is completely eradicated."

Upon hearing this, the young rancher nodded.

After leading his tribe back to the ranch, Chieftain Number One curiously surveyed the ranch.

Compared to Su Yu's ranch, this place is much simpler, with only a few simple farmhouses and a cowshed housing two large milk tanks.

It's clear that this ranch is just getting started.

Fortunately, there was still farmland available, so Chief No. 1 led his people into the rice paddies.

……

Several days later.

Through a long-winged gull, Su Yu also received a letter from Hoopa.

The letter said that after leaving the ranch, Hoopa and the others hitched a ride on a "tailwind boat" and met a flock of bighead gulls that were preparing to migrate.

Hoopa and the others reached Hoenn in just two and a half days by riding on a gull. With the help of a pod of howling whales, they found the Temple of the Sea and met Manaphy inside.

They are currently playing in the Sea Temple, preparing to go to the Hoenn landmass to play in a few days.

"The letter was sent at least three days ago..."

Hoopa and the others have certainly been gone for more than seven days. It seems that Jirachi, with the help of the meteorite fragments, has not fallen into a deep sleep.

"Thank you for your hard work, long-winged gull. Why don't you stay at the ranch for a few more days before you leave?"

It must have been quite a journey for this long-winged gull to travel from Hoennium to Donghuang.

Upon hearing this, the long-winged gull nodded without hesitation.

After that, Su Yu returned to the house.

After trying for so many days, he finally managed to make Suijun's special dish.

It was still pork rib and lotus root soup, because Su Yu hadn't been able to successfully cook any other dishes.

When Suicune entered the kitchen, he was still saying:

"Su Yu, my connection to the Thunder Gods has become increasingly strong lately. The descent into the Johto region might happen in the next few days..."

Upon seeing the pork rib and lotus root soup, Shui Jun was stunned. The feeling this soup gave him was completely different from anything he had experienced before.

It's like eating something that will bring you huge benefits.

"No wonder you've been spending so much time in the kitchen these past few days, so... that's what it was for?"

"Pretty much, since you're leaving soon, I should prepare some parting gifts, shouldn't I?" Su Yu said with a smile.

"And this is the result of all my hard work."

At least, Suicune lived on the ranch for several months. And during that time, she did a lot of things for him.

"Stop looking at it, hurry up and try injecting energy into it. I also want to see the final effect," Su Yu urged.

Upon hearing this, Suijun nodded.

He went up and poured energy into the soup. After this final step was completed, the effect of the dish was presented to Su Yu.

"Suiki's Special: Pork Rib and Lotus Root Soup"

"After consumption, it will greatly enhance the user's strength and grant them the ability to control the waters of rivers."

Judging from the description alone, the effect is a perfect match for Suicune. If Lugia is the god of ocean currents and Kyogre is the primordial sea, then after drinking this dish, Suicune could probably call himself the god of rivers and streams.

"I wonder if Suicune will become stronger than Ho-Oh after eating it?"

If that's the case, how should we define the superior-subordinate relationship between Ho-Oh and Suicune?

After the dish was prepared, Suiki didn't hesitate and drank the soup immediately.

His power was greatly increased, and he seemed to have the ability to sense and control the rivers within a radius of two hundred kilometers.

This is something He didn't have before; previously, He was just a wind and rain deity who could purify water.

He might be able to fight to a draw with the Deoxys from a few days ago. That's roughly the same level as the green Rayquaza from the Deoxys movie.

As Suicune grows stronger...

The City of the City, Mount Amaterasu.

A large golden cat resembling a tiger suddenly stood up from the ground, looking into the distance with a look of horror, feeling utterly incredulous.

Just now, the life force of the Suicune that He sensed suddenly increased dramatically, almost reaching the level of Ho-Oh.

"What happened? Why did Suicune suddenly become stronger?"

Raikou was very puzzled. Not long ago, Suicune was extremely weak, and its life force was almost like a candle flickering in the wind.
