Pokémon: Starting with a Pokémon Ranch.

Chapter 357 An Encounter with Cynthia, the Holy Swordswoman

"Is it really all free?"

As he spoke, Su Yu, who had just taken several steps, turned back.

Upon hearing this, the stall owner quickly smiled apologetically and said:

"Of course! You're the great hero who saved our Unova, you deserve it for free!"

"This person actually knows me?" Su Yu was somewhat taken aback, but then he thought that perhaps one of the reporters had also taken pictures of him back then.

At that time, the temperature drop caused by Kyurem plunged most of Unova into a frozen wasteland, and most people stayed at home, shivering as they watched TV.

"Then what should I do?" Su Yu asked again.

"Just release all your Pokémon, and the rest can be handled by my Pokémon." With that, the stall owner released a Gardevoir.

Gardevoir, with its telepathic ability, could potentially make a fortune by testing its affinity if it has a good talent for this.

All I can say is that in the Pokémon world, everyone has their own unique skills.

Seeing this, Su Yu also led Frost Milk Fairy forward.

Gardevoir closed its eyes and sensed for a while, then used its telekinesis to say something to the stall owner.

The stall owner nodded from time to time, and finally, he translated for Su Yu:

"Gardevoir said that you two are a pair of partners who trust each other. In your heart, Alcremie is a very reliable helper, and you trust it completely. And in Alcremie's eyes, you are also the most powerful and trustworthy person."

"Such mutual trust is truly rare. You two seem to have only been living together for a short time, right? Generally speaking, this kind of situation only occurs when the Pokémon and the trainer have a very good relationship."

The stall owner said that while this situation isn't uncommon, it's more common among middle-aged trainers who have been with Pokémon for over a decade.

After all, in the Pokémon world, everyone can have their own partner. Living and fighting together, spending every day together, it's easy to develop this kind of tacit understanding.

Upon hearing this, Su Yu nodded. The stall owner's account was largely accurate.

At this moment, the other Pokémon also cast curious glances. They stepped forward one after another, expressing their desire to test their affinity with Su Yu.

After all the Pokémon had been tested, they all looked at Gardevoir, wanting it to rank the Pokémon in the ranch according to their affinity with Su Yu.

"This..." Seeing this, the stall owner was at a loss. He chuckled awkwardly, feeling that announcing the rankings would be a bit hurtful.

Seeing that the Pokémon had inexplicably developed a competitive spirit, Su Yu shook his head helplessly.

He took out a Poké Ball and recalled the Pokémon. As for the truth, let it remain shrouded in mystery. Sometimes, knowing too much is not a good thing.

……

Strolling through the streets of Feiyun City.

Sure enough, a long queue had formed outside the ice cream shop. Su Yu and his Pokémon waited in line.

When it was Su Yu's turn to buy, he saw Cynthia standing in front of the store, pondering which flavor to choose.

"Uh... Bamboo Orchid Champion, you're here too?"

Su Yu was a little puzzled. Could it be that the long queue in front of the store was caused by Cynthia's hesitation?

"Huh? Hmm."

Upon hearing this, Cynthia first looked up at Su Yu, then, seemingly oblivious to everyone else, rested her chin on her hand and began to ponder.

Seeing her hesitate again, Su Yu was both amused and exasperated; he wasn't going to make a choice.

Su Yu bought one of each flavor of Cynthia, then took it aside and sat down in a park.

At this moment, the fountains in the park were gushing, and pigeons were flying around the square, scrambling for bread thrown down by tourists.

Cynthia looked at the ice cream and pondered for a moment, then said seriously:

"Su Yu, thank you."

"Oh... it's just buying an ice cream, no big deal." Su Yu waved his hand.

"But you, Champion... it seems like every time I see you, you're hesitating in front of an ice cream shop? Sometimes, if you choose based on your mood that day, it might have a better effect. When you're in a good mood, you can choose vanilla; when you're in a bad mood, you can choose strawberry to cheer yourself up."

As he spoke, Su Yu shared the ice cream he had bought with the other Pokémon, including Cynthia's Lucario, who also received a share.

After listening, Cynthia nodded thoughtfully and said "thank you" earnestly again.

After receiving the ice cream, Lucario sat cross-legged on the ground, enjoying the delicious treat. At that moment, it noticed Farfetch'd, who was wearily taking care of his baby.

Cosmog appears to be of medium size, but in reality, it weighs only 0.1 kg and is composed mostly of gas.

This also makes it easily moved by the wind. At this moment, the Onion Warrior is being very careful, just like an adult protecting a baby learning to walk.

In particular, Cosmog has a strong sense of curiosity and loves to explore. At this moment, it was chasing a flock of bean pigeons, which had been pecking at the ground. Upon seeing someone chasing them, they scattered and flew away.

Onion Soldier followed closely behind Him, afraid that Cosmog might accidentally get lost.

After chasing away the Bean Pigeons several times, Cosmogu became playful. Just as it was about to continue the chase, a beam of white light, representing evolution, shone from its body.

A moment later, it evolved into a 999.9kg Cosmomo. Moreover, it became unable to move freely, just like a Caterpie evolves into a Metapod.

This left the "old father" Cong Youbing somewhat at a loss. It tried to move the little nebula, and fortunately, it could still manage to move it despite its weight.

However, because it cannot move on its own, Cosmom could only remain in this form, staying by Sirfetch'd's side, until it evolved into Solgaleo.

……

I chatted with Cynthia for a while in the park.

Su Yu got up to say goodbye and went to the hotel he had booked in Feiyun City.

Over the next few days, he and his Pokémon traveled to many places in Unova.

While hiking through a valley, he saw three holy swordsmen giving special training to Keldeo by the river.

This surprised Su Yu greatly. Could he really encounter a legendary Pokémon just by taking a casual trip?

He looked at the dummy mouse and thought to himself, "Perhaps it's just that its luck has come into play."

Su Yu wasn't particularly concerned about these four legendary Pokémon, whose strength was only average. However, he wondered if Sirfetch'd could perhaps train in swordsmanship with them?

Therefore, Su Yu decided to stay in the valley for a while. Thanks to his merit in saving the Unicron, the Holy Swordsman quickly accepted him and agreed to teach him the Onion Warrior's sword techniques.

For the next few days, Onion Soldier trained alongside the Holy Swordsman. Whenever this happened, Kosmom would ask him to stand nearby and watch Onion Soldier train.

During this time, Su Yu treated the Holy Swordsmen to a delicious meal. Since King Rai-Crowned had nothing else to do, he began to study the enhanced power he had gained from the food.

After several days of research, He developed the ability to create a personal space and transplanted many plants from the Misty Forest into the space so that He could farm at any time.

Upon learning of this, Su Yu exclaimed in disbelief. Hoopa's personal space, which she obtained through cooking, had actually been directly researched and developed by the Rare Crown King?
