The trainer who wants to clear the game only wants to raise dragons.

The Iron-Armed Shrimp was completely bewildered.

I didn't react immediately.

"Yes, your name is Lao Tie~"

Kirachi responded.

This is the nickname Bai Hong gave it.

虾～

The old man was speechless.

But I still gladly accepted it.

It looks different from the other four iron-armed pistol shrimp; both of its claws are very well-developed, with the left claw being slightly larger than the right claw.

Normally, only the right claw of the pistol shrimp develops into a super-launcher, but it is possible that some pistol shrimp are left-handed and their left claw develops into a super-launcher.

But the iron's two pincers are both developed, which means it has two super launchers on its hands, which is really rare.

Thump~

The old man dived back into the water.

I found two Magikarp for Bai Hong.

However, it wasn't golden; it was a regular Magikarp that had already developed intelligence. Although it wasn't very big, its eyes were bright and alert.

The summer fishing competition has ended, and he caught five common carp, five golden carp, six ugly fish, and five iron-armed pistol shrimp, a very good haul.

Yongxin caught ten common carp and two loaches. The heaviest common carp he had didn't rank, but participation is what matters. Why worry about the ranking? Just watching Bai Hong go on stage to receive the prize is enough.

The super-sized Magikarp weighed 90 kilograms, which is equivalent to 180 jin (approximately 94 kg). It was the undisputed winner, and no one could compare to Bai Hong. Even if Bai Hong was dissatisfied, he could only keep it to himself.

The prize was a complete set of expensive fishing tackle.

There are also 500,000 Alliance Coins.

Here, take your fishing tackle.

Bai Hong stepped down from the podium.

He casually handed the fishing tackle he had just acquired to Yongxin.

"This fishing tackle is very expensive, are you really going to give it to me?" Yongxin said, but he had already taken it with both hands.

"Don't be shy, just take it." Bai Hong found a secluded spot and released the five ordinary Magikarp he had just caught. There was no need to separate the golden Magikarp and the Feebas.

Golden Magikarp is a rare find.

Even if they are not yet enlightened.

It's fine to take it back and raise it.

But ordinary Magikarp won't do. Including the ten ordinary Magikarp that Yongxin has, there are a total of fifteen ordinary Magikarp. That's too many. If we take them all back, they'll multiply like crazy.

He didn't want to see ordinary Magikarp overrun the area, turning the streams of Dragon Valley Ranch into a murky mess.

"Just these five ordinary Magikarp."

After selection, Bai Hong chose five ordinary Magikarp that had gained intelligence. Of the fifteen ordinary Magikarp, only six had gained intelligence, and the remaining one wanted to return to the river, so its wish was granted.

Yongxin counted on his fingers: five ordinary Magikarp, five golden Magikarp, six Feebas, and five Squirrel, totaling twenty-one Water-type Pokémon.

Chapter 99 Who says you have no popularity?

"This is too much."

Yongxin is busy releasing animals.

Nine ordinary Magikarp that had not yet developed intelligence jumped into the water with a splash and disappeared. The ordinary Magikarp that had developed intelligence blew bubbles, deliberately looked back for a moment, and then dived to the bottom of the water.

"Not much. The stream in Dragon Valley Ranch originates from the snow-capped mountains and flows downhill, seemingly without end. There's a small lake not far from the duplex cabin." Bai Hong put away the Poké Ball.

"How come I didn't know Dragon Valley Ranch had a lake? I've been a bit busy lately, I'll come visit you next time I have time." Yongxin dusted off his hands, releasing all the animals that needed to be released.

Even those two mudskippers.

It has also been unbound.

After changing careers.

There's no need to train Pokémon.

Unless you really like this Pokémon.

Mud loaches need to be kept in water. He can't possibly go home and build a fish tank or pond to raise mud loaches, right? It's too much trouble. He might as well release them. Besides, this isn't the Pokémon he wants.

Return to Miare.

They stayed at the Hongyun Store.

After discussion, five new items were officially launched: cooling ice crystals, dehumidifying rocks, dehumidifying rock cores, and obsidian stones.

Trainers who came to pre-order premium honey and buy a cup of malic acid drink initially didn't focus on the newly released items; they were either trying to get closer to Bai Hong or asking him for an autograph.

"Dragon Nest Ranch has launched new products, you can take a look." Bai Hong simply became a salesman, enthusiastically explaining the benefits of the new products, and soon attracted more people to flock into Hongyun Store.

The strongest champion personally acts as a salesman.

The news spread like wildfire.

The threshold is almost worn out from all the footsteps.

Who said you're not popular?

Yongxin had never seen such a grand scene before.

In less than half an hour, there was almost no room to stand in the store, and the queue stretched almost to the end of the street. The newly launched products sold out immediately.

"I really have no popularity!"

Bai Hong had no idea what was going on.

There are so many people today!

The four new products he brought were not enough to sell. These people didn't care whether they needed them or not; they just grabbed them like crazy, afraid that if they arrived late, they wouldn't be able to get them.

"Dear customers, the new products are sold out. Please come back next time." Yongxin stood on the stool behind the counter and shouted the first time, but no one listened. So he had to take out a megaphone and repeat it.

"No way, they're sold out again?"

“Every time it’s my turn, they’re sold out. What bad luck! I want cooling ice crystals and obsidian.”

"Can I make a reservation? I'd like two dehumidifying rock cores, two jars of premium honey, and a cup of apple juice."

"I came here specifically to pre-order Premium Honey. I heard that Premium Honey tastes better than Super Sweet Honey. I'm buying two jars to take home and try. If my Pokémon likes it, I'll buy it again next time."

Thanks to the Lunar New Year Cup, Dragon Valley Ranch's reputation has spread throughout the Kalos region, attracting many trainers from other cities to come here to buy premium Honey.

Trainers in other regions want to buy premium Honeydew, but they are hampered by the lack of online channels because Yongxin does not offer online purchases.

Thus, personal shoppers came into being.

There are many personal shoppers.

It's very difficult to tell them apart.

It's impossible to ban personal shoppers when you're running a business; the best solution is to open online purchasing channels as soon as possible.

The problem is that supply cannot meet demand. The daily production of top-quality honey is fixed, unless Bai Hong raises a few more honey dragons.

In recent days, Bai Hong has been discussing with Yong Xin whether to limit the purchase of premium honey to two jars per person per month. This is mainly to prevent people from reselling it and damaging the reputation of Dragon Valley Ranch.

The store's employees are suffering terribly.

These people didn't leave.

Instead, they lined up to order malic acid drinks.

"It's getting late, you should go back. Leave this to me. The purchase restriction announcement will be released tomorrow." Yongxin really wanted Bai Hong to stay the night, but what about Magikarp and Feebas?

"Okay, I'm off then!"

Bai Hong rode on the back of the fire-breathing dragon.

Facing the beautiful sunset.

They flew towards the sandalwood forest.

As night fell, they finally returned to the secret realm. There was nothing unusual around the white mist, except for the footprints of wild Pokémon.

"Come out, everyone!"

He threw all the Poké Balls.

Twenty-one white beams shot out from the Poké Balls, all landing precisely in the water. Magikarp, Magikarp, Feebas, and Shrimp all bubbled up from the surface.

"See, I didn't lie to you, did I?"

This was said to the Iron-Armed Pistol Shrimp.

虾～

They were waving their pincers.

Expressed great satisfaction.

The water quality here is absolutely fantastic.

The underwater ecosystem is many times better than that in the river, especially since the lush aquatic plants grow wildly everywhere because there are no fish to eat them.

The Magikarp and the Feebas were both deep in the water, happily munching on the seaweed and blowing bubbles as they ate. They were so happy! After they were full, they slowly explored the entire stream.

"Don't worry, this stream that runs through the middle of Dragon Valley Ranch is so long that you can't swim to the end. Try not to swim too far. Keep a range of two kilometers up and down from here."

"By the way, there's a lake down there with lots of aquatic plants. If you can swim across, you could settle down there."

Bai Hong did not restrict their activity range; however, considering that Dragon Valley Ranch is so vast and only this part of the area is currently being developed, you should not go too far even when exploring.

The ordinary Magikarp and the golden Magikarp form a school of fish, with the red and gold colors complementing each other, making it look particularly beautiful.

The ugly fish also formed a school of fish.

It's not as big as the Magikarp.
