Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 327 The Town Gathering

Time flew by, and several more days passed in the blink of an eye.

This day was also the day the mayor had mentioned earlier, the day of the gathering.

"So, Leedon and Blastoise, come with me to town."

As evening approached, Su Yu also shouted.

Upon hearing this, they immediately followed. As they headed towards town, trucks loaded with agricultural products continued to travel along the roadside.

When they arrived in town, a majestic statue of the Bridal Crown King stood in the center of a newly built square.

"Hiss... This statue must be twenty or thirty meters tall, right?" Su Yu exclaimed in shock.

Such a massive statue could only be completed in such a short time in the Pokémon world.

Just then, the trucks we had seen earlier drove into the square. Seeing the trucks, a man who looked like a chef approached with his Pokémon. It seemed they were preparing to cook.

"No wonder the mayor told me not to eat it beforehand, so that's why..."

Eating together from a communal pot is a tradition of the locals in Seagull Town. Seeing this, many people volunteered to help.

Su Yu followed along, bringing Blastoise and the others with him. Upon seeing him, the town mayor shouted:

"It's Su Yu? Come here, come over here quickly. Your cooking skills are good, you have to give us your feedback."

Upon hearing this, Su Yu smiled and nodded.

So Leighton was left outside. Since there was nothing to do, it found a place to lie down and started to sleep.

It's not that it's bored. As a Pokémon that has experienced fierce competition in ancient times, this peaceful life is anything but boring.

On the contrary, tranquility is best for it.

As long as it can stay like it is now, without worrying about enemy attacks or fighting with others for territory, that would be the best for it.

Meanwhile, people were coming and going in the square. They looked at the large lizard with curiosity; it seemed to be a Pokémon they had never seen before.

Some children cautiously approached, but after squatting down to take a look, they ran away timidly.

After a while, Su Yu finally finished his work and returned. Seeing Gu Leton lying on the ground, he asked in confusion:

"Guleton? Are you asleep? Or have you caught a cold?"

"Agas~!"

Upon hearing Su Yu's voice, Gu Leton immediately got up. It shook its head to indicate that it was perfectly fine.

"That's good. I brought you the food too, eat up!"

As he spoke, Su Yu placed the freshly cooked food on the ground.

He himself took his bowl, found a place to squat down and eat.

Before long, Guleton was full. Seeing Su Yu squatting and eating, it ran over and offered to be his mount.

"Cough...no need, I'll just squat down and eat."

Seeing this, Su Yu waved his hand and refused.

Eating while sitting on Pokémon... that sounds incredibly bizarre. Just imagining it is terrifying.

Unexpectedly, Gu Leton became dejected because of his rejection. This surprised Su Yu; had he...done something wrong?

It seems not, is it?

After thinking about it, Su Yu felt that perhaps it was because Guleton came from ancient times and had a relatively simple personality. His refusal might have been misunderstood by Guleton.

Therefore, he went up and patted Gulerton on the head, explaining:

"Gou Leton, I'm not riding you because I don't want to trouble you. There's no need to be upset."

"In human terms, this is called 'polite refusal,' not what you think."

Upon hearing this, Gu Leton, who had been lying on the ground dejectedly, suddenly raised his head.

"Agas?" Really?

"Of course it's true, why would I lie to you?" Su Yu said.

"Look at things like the Growlithe and the little goat mount. Do I ever ride them to eat? That's so ridiculous!"

"Agas..."

Therefore, upon reflection, it seemed that this was indeed the case.

With that thought, it finally felt relieved. After getting up from the ground, it quickly forgot about the incident.

After finishing their meal, Su Yu gathered in front of the statue of the Crowned King.

After the statue's unveiling ceremony, the mayor quickly allowed people to pay their respects at will. Those who were prepared lit incense and bowed three times.

At that moment, the town mayor led his men out, carrying a sedan chair.

Inside the sedan chair was a wooden carving of the Brilliant King, and people were carrying the sedan chair, seemingly intending to take the Brilliant King on a procession.

Su Yu: ...? ? !

So this is really a case of localizing faith? They've even gone on tours now.

That's way too exaggerated.

Fortunately, the procession only circled the square once and did not go any further.

Seeing how much the mayor cared even more than he did, Su Yu realized that he no longer needed to worry about the Crowned King losing his faith.

Seriously, if only the Queen of the Lace Crown could have come to Donghuang sooner!

……

The next day.

Last night, Su Yu stayed in town until nine o'clock.

Early in the morning, Su Yu went to milk the lambs he was riding.

Meanwhile, on the other side...

Hoopa, along with the Pokémon from their expedition team, arrived at a famous dessert shop in the Sinnoh region.

Here, they enjoyed some delicious desserts. But when they asked the Pokémon here what their wishes were...

What they received, however, was a very unexpected answer.

"Your wish is actually to leave this place?"

"Why is it that this place looks perfectly fine?" Hoopa asked, puzzled.

Upon hearing this, one of the shop assistants, an Alcremie, stepped forward. It stated that almost all the Pokémon here were forcibly captured.

In order to make better desserts, the owner constantly forced the staff to practice and strive to create even better treats. It was under these circumstances that the famous Sinnoh dessert shop was finally born.

With a constant stream of customers following them, these Pokémon have to work non-stop, with almost no time to rest.

"Holy crap!" If you can, please take us away with you!

"That's what the shop assistant, Creamy Fairy, said."

It had just witnessed the immense power of these customers. If they wanted, they could certainly take all the Pokémon in the store with them.

This put Hoopa in a bit of a predicament. He hadn't expected that such a glamorous-looking dessert shop would hide something like this.

After thinking for a moment, He said:

"I can take you away, but do you have a place to stay?"

Upon hearing this, the Pokémon in the store looked at each other and then all shook their heads.

They were all Pokémon captured from various places. Having been forced here for so long, they had long since lost their way.

"In that case, I do know a good place. I just don't know if you'd be willing to go?"

"That place is a very beautiful ranch. The owner there is also a very kind human being to Pokémon! I used to receive a lot of care from him, Hoopa."

Hupa was referring to Su Yu's ranch.

After hearing this, the Pokémon in the store thought about it for a moment and decided to go and take a look.

If the place isn't good, they might be able to leave eventually.
