Pokémon: Start with a Pokémon Ranch

That evening.

While Su Yu was preparing dinner, Squirtle was still beating the ground in the field.

Relying on the powerful power brought by the original power of the Holy Pillar King, Squirtle transformed into a terrifying plowing machine by himself, plowing the land on the other side of the farmland.

Kerui and Gladion returned from fishing at the lake. Su Yu looked at their harvest and decided to make steamed fish tonight.

After dinner, the two of them stayed in the house for a while. During this time, Lusamine called.

Ah, yes, Gladion is here now and has been here these past few days.

Do you want to talk to him? Well...he shook his head at me. It seems that he is not very willing. Do you need me to hand the phone to him directly?

Okay, then I will try my best to persuade him, and you don't have to worry too much.

After hanging up the phone, Su Yu looked at Gladion and said:

Sure enough, Zaobo hid what happened before from your mother, but this is to be expected. This guy seems to be confident.

But your mother actually took the initiative to call. Did you not expect this? I remember you said at the beginning that there was absolutely no way she would call.

Hearing this, Gladion turned his head with a cold face and said:

Maybe she just remembered.

After hearing this, Su Yu smiled and shook his head. He was still interested in teasing the female tsundere, but not the male one.

He turned around and wanted to go to the bathroom, but when he opened the door and went in, he found Squirtle holding the brush given to him by the messenger bird and brushing his back.

Uh...you take a shower without turning on the light?

Seeing this, Su Yu was stunned for a moment. This feeling... is like when you open the bathroom door to go to the toilet, only to see a fat old man inside, with his back to you, rubbing his back.

Jenny Jenny... The light switch was located too high for me to press.

Picking up a towel and wiping his polished head, Squirtle said this.

That's it... Then I'll bring a stool and put it here later to give you a cushion.

Because generally speaking, there were not many Pokémon in the ranch who came to bathe often, so Su Yu didn't pay attention to it during the few days he moved to his new home.

By the way... do you want me to brush your back?

Because of his naturally short hands, even if he used the long-handled brush bought by Messenger Bird, Squirtle still had difficulty brushing his back. Squirtle's hands were really too short.

It was like some turtles in the previous life. If their turtle shells were turned over and their legs were in the air, Su Yu didn't know if Squirtle could get up on his own.

Jenny? Is that okay?

Hearing this, Squirtle's eyes lit up and he handed the brush to Su Yu. Su Yu also brought a stool to sit down on, and started scrubbing with a brush.

During the brushing process, Su Yu curiously flicked Squirtle's shell, and the shell made a muffled sound that could only be heard from heavy steel.

Good guy, is it as hard as steel? It seems that the turtle shell maintenance agent is very effective.

I don’t know how much Squirtle weighs now.

With this turtle shell, Squirtle's weight can't be 9kg anymore, right, Dr. Oak?

After rubbing his back, Su Yu also picked up the nozzle on the side and gave Squirtle a rinse. Turning his head, he realized that the wooly horn sheep had already formed a team and were waiting at the door.

Good guys, do you want to take a shower too?

Mark~ Su Yu washed it for us!

Hairy Horn Sheep said immediately. Seeing this, the horse Xiaoyang on the side also ran over and joined in the fun.

Okay, okay...Okay, let's just wash them all. Su Yu replied helplessly.

Do you want to come with the green onion duck? I'll wash it with warm water for you.

Gah?! Seriously, are you greedy for my body?

Don't do that kind of thing (ㄒ﹏ㄒ)d, if it continues like this, I'm going to run away from home~!

Ahem... Then I won't joke about ingredients anymore, okay.

Su Yu said quickly.

After all, the green onions in the pasture now depend on the green onion duck. If the green onion duck leaves, the ranch will lose a pillar industry.

…

…

Wait until Su Yu finished washing the hairy horn sheep.

When he came out, he happened to see Gladion waiting for him not far away.

Seeing this, Su Yu also wiped his hands, walked over and asked doubtfully:

What's wrong? Is something wrong?

Hearing this, Gladion hesitated and said:

Um... I wonder, senior, if you can lend me some Pokémon?

I still care about the Pokémon that asked me for help that day. I want to sneak back into Zaobo's research institute to rescue it.

Nowadays, Gladion calls Su Yu senior, which means that he feels that Su Yu is a trainer whose strength he admires.

After hearing this, Su Yu said without hesitation:

Oh...that's it.

Tomorrow night, let Green Caterpillar and Squirtle go with you. Forget it tonight, it's a bit late.

Hearing this, Gladion was very happy:

You agreed?! Thank you, senior!

After saying that, he bowed to Su Yu.

Su Yu quickly supported Gladion. To be honest, Su Yu planned to do this even without his request.

After all, the Silver Companion War Beast did appear to be in great pain at Zaobo's place, and has been detained by Zaobo. Later, Zaobo even put a mask on it to control it.

And it would be just right for Gladion to rescue this silver companion beast.

By the way, Gladion, come and take a look at it for me. This is my barbecue restaurant. Is the menu like this appropriate?

As he spoke, Su Yu took out a handwritten menu, which he had started preparing when he came back yesterday.

When it came to opening a barbecue restaurant, Su Yu's original intention was to build a place where everyone and Pokémon could gather together to eat and drink. In addition, I just want to increase the flow of people in the ranch and see if I can attract some tourists.

If this is the case, it seems that the menu of the barbecue restaurant also needs careful consideration?

ah?

Hearing this, Gladion also took Su Yu's menu. On it, there are various kinds of grilled skewers, grilled fish, and various tree fruit snacks.

There are...pancakes here? Gladion looked at Su Yu and asked doubtfully.

I just learned it today, and I just added it to enrich the menu. Although, no one may order it. Su Yu shrugged.

Anyway, it’s not a casual pancake series, but a serious employment guide for college students.

Gladion listened and nodded. He returned the menu to Su Yu and said:

There shouldn't be anything wrong with the menu. After all, your ranch is relatively remote, so people who come here generally... won't be too picky about what they eat.

This is this barbecue restaurant...where do you plan to open it?

For the time being... let's decide on the Sky Tree of the Green Caterpillar. There is a [secret base] there and the scenery is just right. Su Yu replied.

At this time, Kerui happened to hear the conversation between Su Yu and Gladion. He came over and asked:

What, does anyone want to open a barbecue restaurant?

Then when it opens, I can bring my friends over to support it. And the Pokémon from my engineering team, can I call them all over?

Hearing this, Su Yu imagined the scene on the opening day, full of people and Pokémon. It should be quite lively.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but nodded. This...can be available.
