After watching Dr. Orin and Little Piper leave, Naoki returned indoors. Looking at this familiar video phone, he thought of the scene in the anime where Ash called Dr. Oak at the Pokémon Center.
The arrival of Dr. Olin also made him aware of the time point he was currently in.
Ten years ago when the plot of Zhuzi took place, at this time, Xiaozhi probably had not yet traveled, but it was possible that he had just left for a short time.
That would be interesting if that were the case.
Because this means that Mewtwo has not yet been born, Lugia has not yet exploded, Groudon and Kyogre have not yet awakened, and Team Galaxy has not yet controlled the two gods of time and space...
Of course, the premise of all this is that Xiaozhi exists in this world.
However, whether he is present or not, it seems to have nothing to do with him.
Because he's just an ordinary rancher.
Life goes on.
He has not made any profits today, and he cannot continue like this.
Zhi Shu sighed, then picked up the iron bucket and rode Gulton to the upper reaches of the river.
When he came back, the iron bucket was already full of fish.
At five o'clock in the evening, Zach drove the truck to collect the goods on time.
As the temperature gradually warmed up, Zach took off his thick jacket and went out to work wearing only a short shirt.
Looking at the brand-new pasture, Zach sighed: "Oh, it really looks different every day!"
He looked at the seedlings in the field and said to Naoki: "In half a month, the crops in the field will be mature."
Naoki: "Yes!"
"Before you plant the next batch of crops, you can go to the town to buy some fertilizer to fertilize them. The higher the quality of the crops, the higher the price will be!" Zach said casually, and then asked : "Did you gain anything today?"
Naoki handed over the bucket of fish.
Zach counted it, then took out his account book and made calculations. Finally, he took out a wad of money from his bag and handed it over with a smile: "The total is two thousand six hundred and twenty alliance coins, please keep it!"
Naoki reached out and took it.
Zach loaded the goods into the car, then sat in the driver's seat. While reversing the car, he waved to Naoki: "See you tomorrow!"
Naoki also said: "See you tomorrow!"
After sending Zach away, the sky also darkened.
It was getting late, so Naoki returned to the house to prepare dinner.
Cream Fairy jumped out of the cupboard and ran to the desk to play with Mini Fu.
Naoki looked at them and thought that these two little guys had been staying indoors for the past two days and had not gone out much, so he said to them: "Don't you feel bored staying in the house all the time? You should go out for a walk occasionally!"
"Mama..."
"Fu..."
Hearing this, Frost Milk Fairy and Mini Fu looked outside, seeming to be a little scared of the unfamiliar world.
Naoki understood.
Before coming here, Frosty Milk Fairy and Mini Fu had been living in the fields of Happy Ranch. They grew up there, so naturally they were not afraid.
But now, they have come to a completely unfamiliar pasture. For them, only this small wooden house and straight trees can bring them a sense of security.
Therefore, they have been playing indoors for the past two days and have not gone out.
"This can't go on like this!"
Naoki thought for a moment and decided to take the two of them for a walk in the pasture after dinner to familiarize themselves with the environment.
Today’s dinner Naoki prepared a fragrant and mellow creamy mushroom soup, Chinese meat buns, pan-fried pork chops sprinkled with black pepper, original hard-boiled eggs, and finally finished with five cups of milk with different fruit juices added. .
A sumptuous dinner was completed.
Several Pokémon ate happily.
Mini Fu and Frost Milk Fairy eat very well, chewing slowly and slowly.
The eating appearance of Guluton and the Motorized Lizard are almost carved out of the same mold, unrestrained and rough, with their eating paws and mouths covered with oil.
Naoki reminded with a serious expression: "After eating, remember to go to the faucet outside to wash your face and paws!"
The last time he went to clear away the dishes, he turned around and saw that the sheets and the floor were covered in oil stains by the two of them.
"Ghiss..."
"Quaao..."
Therefore, Luton and Motorized Lizard nodded in agreement obediently.
They know it!
Soon, dinner time was over.
Naoki was going to wash the dishes, so Luton and the Motorized Lizard went to the faucet outside and washed their mouths and claws.
Seeing that they were able to take care of themselves, Naoki nodded with satisfaction and turned to the kitchen to clean up with confidence.
When Mini Fu and Frost Milk Fairy saw the two big guys, they looked at each other, looking at each other's mouths and little hands.
"Mama!" Let's go wash up and make ourselves clean too!
"Fu..." Mini Fu looked at Gulton and Motorized Lizard with some fear.
Compared to it, Frost Milk Fairy is a little bolder.
Because after getting along with each other for these two days, it found that the two big Pokémon were not hostile to them.
This made the Frost Milk Fairy, who was originally a little scared, not so scared anymore.
It led Niffle and jumped out of the chair, quietly moving to the door with only half of its head exposed to look at Gulton and the Motorized Lizard.
Therefore, Luton has changed from a galloping form on all fours to a fighting form with two feet upright.
In this way, it is filled with an unparalleled wild aura, coupled with its nearly two-meter height and muscular body, it brings a very terrifying sense of oppression to people.
It was holding its head high, with a fierce look on its face, holding the faucet with its big paws and spraying it on the paws of the shorter Motorcycle Lizard beside it.
"M...Mah..." It's so scary...
Frost Milk Fairy hesitated.
Seeing it like this, Mini Fu on the side simply asked: "Fu?" Didn't you just say you're not afraid of that big guy?
"Ma!" No!
In order not to lose face in front of her companions, Frost Milk Fairy took a deep breath and mustered up the courage to take a step forward.
At this time, Guluton discovered them.
It turned its head, its golden pupils shrank slightly, and stared closely at the little Frost Milk Fairy and Mini Fu.
Frost Milk Fairy felt as if she was being targeted by the most terrifying predator in the world, and her little body suddenly turned to stone.
Fortunately, Gulton soon withdrew his gaze and shouted at them: "Ah, gah!"
"Fu?" Mini Fu asked tremblingly. Is it calling us?
"Ma...ma..." It seems like...what should I do?
Frost Milk Fairy was also a little flustered.
Seeing their appearance, Luton felt a little speechless.
It restrained its tone: "Ah, geez..."
After driving the Motorized Lizard away, Luton stepped forward to catch the Cream Fairy and Mini Fu, and then used the faucet to help them water them.
After a while, the bodies of Mini Fu and Frost Milk Fairy, stiff with fear, relaxed.
They belatedly realized that this big guy, apart from looking scary, didn't seem to be hurting them?
When Naoki came back after taking a bath, there was no sign of Frosty Milk Fairy and Mini Fu in the house.
He was confused and heard the sound of water outside. When he walked out the door, he saw Gulton playing with them in the water.
The Motorcycle Lizard stood aside and watched stupidly, without stepping forward.
It doesn't seem to like being near the Cream Fairy.
"Is it because of attribute restraint?" Naoki thought.
After all, the Fairy-type Frost Milk Fairy is twice as powerful as the Dragon-type Motorized Lizard.
However, Guluton, who is also a dragon, does not seem to reject the Frost Milk Fairy at all.
Probably because Guluton is strong enough to ignore the influence of Frost Milk Fairy's attributes, right? Naoki thought.
Seeing him coming, several Pokémon also stopped.
Naoki returned to the house and took out a towel to dry the water on Frosty Milk Fairy and Mini Fu.
He asked curiously: "How do you feel?"
Frosty Milk Fairy's voice sounded very happy: "Ma!"
Mini Fu also looked very happy: "Fu~"
It seems they like Gullerton very much!
After drying their bodies, Naoki took them to wander around the pasture, one by one, and introduced the pasture to them.
So Luton and Motorized Lizard followed behind.
At this time, the sky had not completely darkened. A ray of setting sun remained on the horizon, and the entire land was shrouded in gentle twilight.
After grazing for a day, the hens returned to the chicken hut, lay down on the haystacks, and began to close their eyes to rest.
The crops in the farmland are growing well. The fastest-growing turnip has grown several large leaves, and the fruits buried underground may have begun to take shape.
Naoki took a few Pokémon for a walk on the grass. He pointed to the fence surrounding the pasture in the distance and said to Frosty Milk Fairy and Mini Fu:
"Those fenced areas are our pastures. It's safe here. No bad guys will hurt you."
Mini Fu and Frost Milk Fairy looked around curiously.
Naoki said with a smile: "There are many wild flowers blooming in this grass, and there will be many butterflies flying around in the grass during the day."
The grass in this world grows very vigorously, and with a little trimming it becomes a neat lawn, which looks very beautiful.
Because of this, Naoki only cut down the extra trees and did not use a sickle to cut off the grass.
He planned to wait two days to process the stones in the utility room and lay a stone road in the pasture connecting the chicken hut and the wooden house.
Seeing the curious expressions of Frost Milk Fairy and Mini Fu, Naoki said to them:
"When it's daytime tomorrow, you can come over and take a look. There are many butterflies and flowers."
"Fu~"
"Ma!"
The two Pokémon began to look forward to it.
After Naoki's introduction, they had a preliminary impression of the ranch - a place surrounded by fences was a safe place.
I am no longer so afraid of the world outside.
After walking around the pasture, the last trace of clouds on the horizon disappeared, and Naoki stopped the walk until the sun could no longer be seen.
He returned to the house with a few Pokémon.
Cream Fairy went to the cupboard, while Mini Fu returned to the flowerpot, sitting on the edge, swaying her little feet and yawning, with a sleepy look on her face.
"Go to sleep!" Naoki said with a smile.
"Fu~"
Mini Fu responded, lying on her back in the flower pot, lying on the soft soil and closing her eyes in peace, and soon began to snore.
Naoki turned around and looked at Gulton and Motorized Lizard beside the bed, then sat on the bed and packed up his things.
Tomorrow morning he was going to leave for Cauldron Lake. Since he didn't know if he would be able to come back in time at noon, Naoki planned to prepare some nutritionally balanced sandwiches and tree juice for the Motorized Lizards.
This time, in addition to looking for new fishing spots, Naoki also planned to hire a water Pokémon that could use a water gun and pray for rain to come back to work.
You also have to bring some food with you, because capturing Pokémon is a technical job.
Based on my experience watching anime for many years, if you want to tame a wild Pokémon, in addition to fighting, you can also abduct it through food, and invest in emotions.
After all, orcs will never be slaves unless they have food and shelter.
Pokémon are simpler than Orcs. Except for Pokémon that can only be conquered through battle, most of them just give it a little food and it will follow you.
Therefore, Naoki made a few more dishes that were delicious, tasty, and suitable for Pokémon who like to eat tree fruits, like meat, and have a sweet, spicy, or sour taste.
These dishes also need to be easy to carry and store.
After working overtime to make them, Naoki put them into his backpack. When he opened the zipper, he suddenly saw a few Poké Balls on the bottom.
Looking at them, Naoki suddenly remembered something.
Dr. Olin didn't give him Gullton's Poké Ball!
No, to be precise, Luton's Poké Ball has been destroyed by it!
Naoki's mind flashed to the image of Gulton using his dragon claw to fly away the Poké Ball.
So the question is, after the Poke Ball is destroyed, will the mark it left on the Pokémon still exist?
After pondering for a moment, Naoki picked up a Poké Ball and used it on Gulton.
But a few seconds passed, and there was no response from the elf ball.
"It seems that the mark still exists." Naoki thought to himself.
He threw the Poké Ball into his backpack, and as soon as he zipped it up, he suddenly remembered something.
He reopened his backpack and casually took out a red and white ball from it and brought it to the Motorized Lizard.
"Gaw?"
The Motorized Lizard quickly recognized the Poké Ball, and it also realized that its master was finally planning to conquer it.
A happy expression appeared on the Motorized Lizard's face. It took the initiative to move its head up. The moment it touched the button in the center of the Poké Ball, its body turned into a red light and was taken in.
Then, it shook slightly twice and then became quiet.
This means that the conquest was successful.
"Is this what it feels like to conquer a Pokémon?"
Naoki held the elf ball in his hand, weighed it, held it weakly, and then made a throwing motion.
He saw trainers in anime throwing Poké Balls like this.
However, because he was worried that the Poke Ball would hit the wall and be damaged, Naoki did not actually throw it, but held it in his hand and pressed the button.
Immediately afterwards, the elf ball opened automatically, and a beam of light shot out of it, revealing the figure of the Motorized Lizard on the wooden floor.
"How do you feel?" Naoki asked.
The motorcycle lizard looked very excited: "Gah!"
Judging from its reaction, it seemed like entering the Poké Ball wasn't a bad feeling.
But in Naoki's view, there are differences between the Poke Balls.
Ordinary red and white balls are the most basic Poke Balls, and then there are advanced balls, super balls, luxury balls, etc.
The further back you go, the better the performance and living environment of the Poké Ball will be.
The interior space of the luxury ball, which can make Pokémon feel luxurious and comfortable, has been personally verified by Meowth, one of the Rocket trio.
Forget it, let's make do with it now, and when he makes a lot of money later, he can give the Motorized Lizard a luxurious ball to live in.
As for now, it’s getting late and it’s time to go to bed!
Naoki stretched, took off his clothes and threw himself on the bed.
He didn't notice the way Gullton looked at the elf ball at all.
"Gass?"
