Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

It's been over a month since Chapter 32 was released?

That evening.

After weaving the fishing net for most of the day, the caterpillar finally finished before dark. Looking at the large net made entirely of its own silk, the caterpillar had no idea how much silk it had spun to make it; its mouth was almost numb.

It felt that it would be completely dry for the next few days.

"Hiss~!"

After finishing weaving the web, the green caterpillar summoned Su Yu.

After Su Yu arrived, he forcefully tugged at the large net to check its quality.

"Hmm...it's much sturdier than the fishing net I borrowed from Uncle Yang, and it seems to be much lighter too?"

"It can fully unfold, so it should be fine for fishing. Thank you, Caterpillar, for giving you such a troublesome job so soon after you arrived."

"Hiss~"

Caterpie said, "You're welcome. This is what I should do for my trainer."

Just then, the Farfetch'd and the Tropical Dragon returned. They seemed to have been exchanging training tips along the way, and the Tropical Dragon looked excited, indicating that its training was progressing well.

Seeing this, Su Yu asked:

"How's the training going?"

"Hooray~!"

Upon hearing this, the tropical dragon approached Su Yu. It concentrated a stream of green energy onto one of its large leaves and lightly slashed at the ground.

The leaf easily sliced ​​through the surface of the soil and penetrated deep inside. If this were the apple Su Yu had given me earlier, it would have been cut open by now.

"It seems the training has been quite successful, much faster than this morning's training. The proficiency with this blade is already good enough for actual combat."

"Your main training goal from now on is to work hard to go from one blade blade to four blade blades."

As he spoke, Su Yu looked at the four enormous leaves on the tropical dragon's back.

Upon hearing this, the tropical dragon initially nodded. But then it shook its head and spoke at length to Su Yu.

The general idea is that battles will not only be about the number of Leaf Blades, but also about the Pokémon's battle skills.

Farfetch'd is an excellent swordsman, and Tropical Dragon is currently working hard to learn swordsmanship from him, striving to become even stronger.

"Is that how it is?"

Su Yu hadn't expected that a random Farfetch'd would be a swordsmanship expert, someone that the tropical dragon praised so highly.

"Then you should train your swordsmanship properly with your Farfetch'd teacher. Of course, don't forget to practice using multiple leaf blades at the same time."

Upon hearing this, the tropical dragon nodded, indicating that it understood.

Just then, the Growlithe, who was herding the ordinary sheep, also led the flock back. Seeing this, Su Yu knew that he should start preparing dinner, so he turned around and went back to the hut.

"Alcremie, it's time to cook!"

Su Yu called out, and upon hearing his voice, the Frost Fairy, who was playing with the woolly sheep outside, immediately came over and began to help Su Yu.

Soon, the aroma of stir-fried squid with green peppers wafted through the pasture.

……

……

That evening, Su Yu got up and ran outside to use the restroom. However, just as she stepped out the door, she almost tripped over something.

Staggering to regain his balance, Su Yu looked back and found himself face to face with Farfetch'd in the darkness.

"...Uh, it's you?"

"What are you doing here? Why aren't you sleeping inside? Did you come out to look at the stars too?"

Su Yu was puzzled to see that the giant green onion duck had also run outside.

Do all you wild Pokémon really enjoy coming out at night to look at the stars?

"Huh??!"

Farfetch'd was puzzled by this. It just didn't want to disturb the other Pokémon inside, so it went out to sleep. Why would the rancher say that?

The farfalle duck understood that it was merely a guest on this ranch. And a guest shouldn't occupy the host's room; that would be shameless.

Upon hearing Farfetch'd's explanation, Su Yu realized he had misunderstood him. The reason Farfetch'd had run outside left him both amused and exasperated.

Left with no other option, Su Yu offered the following advice:

"It's okay, no one will mind. On the contrary, they love sleeping with you."

"Come inside, don't sleep outside. What if you catch a cold from the wind?"

However, the farfalle duck still shook its head, indicating that it still did not want to go in.

As for catching a cold from the wind, wild Pokémon like this sleeps like this every day because they are outdoors all year round, so they are not that delicate.

Seeing this, Su Yu felt that he probably couldn't persuade the Farfetch'd; perhaps it was still somewhat distant from the other Pokémon in the ranch.

Farfetch'd wasn't his Pokémon, so he couldn't force it to go inside and sleep. So Su Yu went inside and got a blanket for Farfetch'd to cover itself with, hoping it would be a little warmer.

Afterwards, Su Yu returned to the room and fell into a deep sleep on the warm bed.

……

Early the next morning.

As soon as they got up, Su Yu took the tropical dragon to the lake to catch fish.

Because the fishing interval has changed to once every two days, the quantity of fish caught this time needs to be greater than the last time.

Fortunately, the net was much larger and made of caterpillar silk, making it much stronger than the previous ordinary fishing net.

After delivering the fish to the restaurant, Su Yu returned to find a person standing at the door of the small house.

"People actually came to the ranch?" This surprised Su Yu, since apart from Uncle Yang's family, outsiders rarely came to the ranch.

The man was dressed as a postman, carrying a shoulder bag full of newspapers. Seeing Su Yu arrive, the man asked:

"Hello, are you the owner of this ranch?"

"Yes, it is. What's wrong?"

"Oh...it's nothing. I'm the postman for this pastoral area, here to deliver your monthly newspaper."

"Hey, this is this month's newspaper. Have a nice day!"

After handing the newspaper to Su Yu, the man prepared to leave.

Has it really been a month already?

Su Yu hadn't expected that time would pass so quickly; in the blink of an eye, he had already been here for over a month.

Just as the postman was about to leave, Su Yu noticed the Dodoli standing to the side. Each of the Dodoli's necks had a crossbody bag wrapped around it, and there were also two bags filled with newspapers on either side of its body.

Like the Motolizard that Su Yu had thought of before, Dodrio is also a Pokémon that is very good at running, and its stamina is especially strong, making it a great Pokémon for getting around.

However, Su Yu had no intention of raising Dodori, because this Pokémon has three heads, and each head has its own ideas.

If they start arguing, the incessant chatter in your ear can be incredibly annoying.

He brought the newspaper inside and left it there. It was early in the morning, and Su Yu didn't have time to read the newspaper yet; he had to prepare breakfast first.

However, Su Yu has been taking a break from breakfast lately. She just has a bottle of Moo Moo fresh milk and a sandwich, which is convenient, quick, and nutritious.

Once the other Pokémon were awake, Su Yu sat down at the dining table to have breakfast together.

"Hey, by the way, where's the green onion duck?" Su Yu asked, puzzled, noticing that the green onion duck wasn't on the table.

Upon hearing this, the tropical dragon said it had just seen it; early in the morning, Farfetch'd seemed to have gotten up on its own and gone to practice swordsmanship.

"What a disciplined Pokémon..."

"You guys hurry up and eat, I'll go call it. Tropical Dragon, after you finish eating, you can start training too."

"Hooray~!"

The tropical dragon agreed.

Su Yu went outside and called the green onion duck back.

Following Su Yu back to the cabin and sitting at the dining table, Da Cong Ya was very satisfied with the sumptuous breakfast on the table.

After all, having lived in the wild for most of its life, it had never tasted such exquisite human cuisine before, and this was prepared with the careful guidance of Alcremie, so the taste was quite good.

Wow! This deal with food and lodging is really worth it!

This made Farfetch'd a little reluctant to leave, but as soon as the thought crossed his mind, he desperately shook his head off.

How could you think that way? It's Farfetch'd, a proud swordsman, and it won't allow itself to indulge in the gentle embrace of a human trainer.

Green onion duck, you must have backbone!

This human trainer is definitely trying to corrupt its mind with food, hoping to keep it here forever. We can't fall for that trick!

Thinking this, the green onion duck glanced to the side. Luckily, Su Yu hadn't noticed, otherwise its near-capture by a delicacy would have been exposed.

Noticing the look in the Great Green Duck's eyes, Su Yu asked in confusion:

"What's wrong? Is the food bad, or does it not suit your taste?"

Upon hearing this, the green onion duck shook its head frantically, but felt something was off and didn't know whether it should nod or not.

This left Su Yu somewhat confused about the Great Green Duck's thoughts, and he just muttered to himself, "How strange."

After breakfast, Farfetch'd took Tropius to continue training.

Seeing Farfetch'd and the others leave, Caterpie looked at Su Yu and hissed as if to say something.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu asked:

"You'd like to train with them too?"

The green caterpillar nodded.

"Alright, I think you should be able to learn quite a few moves that you didn't know before. If you follow them, you might be able to learn a lot."

Su Yu recalled the changes that occurred to Caterpie after loading the Rayquaza template.

Therefore, Su Yu agreed and said:

"Then go and follow them. Remember to call them back at lunchtime."

Hearing this, the caterpillar nodded happily. Then, with its short legs, it quickly chased after the Farfetch'd and the others.

Even though it wasn't the first time Su Yu had seen it, he was still amazed by the caterpillar's speed. He never expected that a caterpillar could run so fast.

"It really is a very talented caterpillar. It is incredibly powerful in every aspect, making it hard to believe that it is a caterpillar."

"And he's incredibly persistent; he's a true all-rounder."

Su Yu thought to himself.
