After a long journey, Yushu finally returned to Freewill Ranch.
In the distance, he saw the fence of the pasture and the familiar wooden house.
The afterglow of the sunset sprinkled on the grass, dyeing everything a warm orange color.
Miltank and Mareep were grazing leisurely on the grass, and Combee was flying busily among the flowers, creating a harmonious pastoral scene.
"Hey, the boss is back."
At this time, Aili happened to come out to throw away garbage, and saw Yushu carrying a bag at a glance.
She was wearing an apron with a Pikachu pattern printed on it and looked like she had just finished her work.
Shuren poked his head out from the Berry garden, still holding a pair of scissors in his hand.
"Long time no see, thank you boss."
Yushu saw the two of them, and his thoughts changed.
The time has come to test your acting skills.
"Well, long time no see."
He frowned slightly, lowered his eyes, tightened the corners of his mouth, and his whole person exuded a melancholic aura.
Aili blinked.
Oh, this look of life-or-death... The boss has never passed the exam.
That's right, it's only for one month, and only after that can there be ghosts.
Shuren simply thought that the boss was tired, so he asked directly without thinking much:
"How are the results of the exam, boss?"
Aili eyes widened.
No, brother, you are a tiger. With this expression, you still dare to ask? Do you want to have your salary deducted?
This is not asking about the test results. This is clearly rubbing salt into the boss's wounds!
Shuren was stared at in confusion by Aili. He scratched his head and looked at Aili with a blank look on his face.
Did he say something wrong?
Yushu was silent for three seconds, then sighed:
"Alas..."
This sigh contains too many emotions.
Loss, helplessness, regret... it seems like thousands of words are blended into this sigh.
Aili saw this and quickly comforted:
"It's okay, it's okay. I just didn't pass the exam! Just come back next time!"
She originally wanted to ridicule him, but when she saw Yushu's expression, she felt that was too inappropriate.
Let's save some face for him. What if we hit him too hard and no one will work anymore?
Shuren also reacted and echoed from the side:
"It's okay, boss. I heard that the educator exam is very difficult. Many people take the exam several times before passing it."
"Boss, how long have you been preparing for? It's already amazing that you can take the exam in just over a month!"
Yushu became a drama queen and continued to sigh, "You are right, it is indeed not easy."
It's not easy. It's too tiring to pretend to be serious. He feels that if he keeps sighing, people will sigh emo.
Aili said proudly, "What a big deal, the worst thing is that we will continue next year and we will take the exam together!"
"But..." Yushu hesitated to speak.
Aili directly interrupts spell casting:
"But what, Shuren, you are also taking the exam, we Freewill Ranch all attack! I don't believe that the three of us can't pass the exam for one Beginner Stage breeder!"
Shuren was stunned for a moment and pointed at himself:
"Me?"
He is a cultivator of Berry. What kind of breeder test should he take?
Isn't that Hyper Beam beating Caterpie?
Aili's eyes narrowed. "What, you can't take the exam?"
"Yes, why not?"
Shuren shrank his neck.
Anyway, there is no shame in failing the exam. At most, it will be a waste of registration fee, but it should be a contribution to the association.
"But..." Yushu wanted to speak again.
Aili was anxious. "Why are you still okay? What on earth do you want to say?"
Then she saw Yushu take out a small green notebook and wave it in front of her.
"But I passed it."
The air solidified.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and you could even hear the sound of the wind blowing through the grass clearly.
Aili was frozen in place, his eyes fixed on the certificate. On the cover were the words "Nurturer Qualification Certificate" flashing in big letters "Illuminate".
"You're going to die--!!!"
The next second, a roar resounded throughout the pasture, startling a group of Starly who were resting in the trees.
They flapped their wings and flew into the sky, making a dissatisfied Hoothoot sound.
"What are you doing so loudly?"
Yushu picked his ears.
It's so dry and loud. It would be a pity not to do comedy.
Aili cursed, "We thought you really didn't pass the exam, and we have been comforting you! But you are here to show off?"
"Well, isn't this a surprise for you?"
Yushu looked like someone who wanted to be beaten. "How about it, is it a surprise or not? A surprise or not?"
"Surprise!"
Aili rolled his eyes at him, but then reacted. "That's not right, you have only studied for two months, have you really passed?"
She took the certificate and looked at it carefully, checking it over and over again, looking at the watermark, and feeling the concave and convex feeling of the steel seal.
The steel seal and anti-counterfeiting mark on it prove that this is not a fake.
"The value of being a cultivator is so low now? Do you need to get a certificate just by participating? If I had known, I would have taken the exam."
"Aili, you guys, can't you believe that I am gifted?" Yushu protested dissatisfied.
Aili swears:
"There is absolutely no such possibility! You must have used some shady means to pass!"
Yushu looked disdainful. "What method can I use? I don't know the examiner."
Reggie who also referred to the exam: It's hard to say...
"Then you're just out of luck!"
"Okay, okay, I'm just lucky."
Yushu was too lazy to argue with her. "Speak carefully, I brought Present back for you."
"Present? You should have told me earlier."
Aili immediately changed his words: "The boss is extremely talented. He is a boxing champion and a kicking king. He is definitely Sinnoh's most talented monster. You are my god!"
I'm Sinnoh the first Baturu...
Yushu holds her forehead, this woman's face changes faster than Rapid Spin's Swift.
He didn't bother to worry about it so much, and immediately waved his hand and announced, "To celebrate a little, I will cook and give you extra food tonight!"
"Oh ho!"
The two cheered at the same time.
Early the next morning, the sky pierced the clouds and the rising sun covered the entire Freewill Ranch.
Yushu stood in the open space in front of the wooden house and took out the Great Ball from his pocket.
Bang!
A red light flashed, and Torchic appeared on the grass.
It first looked around, taking in this new environment.
The vast grassland extends into the distance, and outside the fence is a dense orchard. Several Miltank are grazing leisurely on the grass, swishing their tails.
Combee shuttled busily among the flowers, making a buzzing sound.
Hey, the new home is not bad, it is much more popular than the previous training ground.
Yushu squatted down and spoke softly, "Torchic, from today on, this is your home, and all your partners in the ranch are your family, so don't be formal."
"Chamo."
Torchic nodded, expressing satisfaction.
This place is okay, the air is fresh, and the most important thing is that the food looks good.
It had just seen several fruit trees covered with Berry.
You should be able to eat whatever you want.
With the appearance of Torchic, many old members of the ranch who were fishing leisurely also gathered around.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Torchic, our new member."
Yushu
Miltank looked at the new little guy curiously.
"Moo~" (Hey, there's a new guy here? This little one looks pretty tender.)
Rotom floated in mid-air and circled around Torchic several times.
"Rotom~"(Fluffy! So soft! Looks so good! Can I rub it a little! Just a little!)
Vespiquen landed from the sky and glanced at Rotom.
"Buzz!" (This is the new partner brought back by Yushu! Please restrain yourself!)
Rotom was scolded and felt a little aggrieved.
"Rotom..." (I just think it's cute, and I'm not causing trouble. The Queen is too strict...)
On the roof, Staraptor looked down at the little one on the ground, with a bit of the arrogance of a veteran in his eyes.
"Muke~" (This little thing looks quite weak. What can it do? It can't even spray fire.)
Torterra walked over slowly.
"Tutai~" (Be kind, who hasn't come from a weak stage? Seniors should behave like seniors.)
Staraptor curled his lips.
"Muke~" (I won't really bully it. Besides, I was much more energetic than it at that time. I can already catch Caterpie)
Luxray was lying in the yard, glanced at the new Torchic with half-open eyes, and then called Yawn.
"Roar."
(The newcomer is another one to worry about.)
After saying that, it buried its head back in its front paws and continued to sleep.
Torchic looked at the group of Pokémon gathered around,
Who are these people? Colleagues? It feels like none of them are normal.
Oh, the same seems to be the case with the previous one... I'm afraid all trainers have this kind of virtue.
At this moment, Kirlia came out and gave a standard curtsey to Torchic.
"Chiru~"
(Welcome to Freewill Ranch, new partner.)
This time, it directly refreshed Torchic's understanding of new home partners!
Finally something normal!
This temperament, this demeanor, this is what a serious Pokémon should look like! You can tell he is reliable at first glance!
Torchic I instantly felt that I had found the organization.
Rotom floated over again.
"Rotom~" (Little turkey! You are Fire-type, right? What a coincidence! Ben Luo can also become Fire-type! We can form a team and create a double-fire combination to burn down the invincible players in the world!)
Torchic:???
It stared blankly at Rotom jumping up and down, its little head slightly shutting down.
Is this thing really not short-circuited? We just met and decided to form a team to dominate the world?
Why don't you be so ahead of your time?
Uxie was floating in the air, his eyes swept over Torchic, and he nodded slightly.
(Well, Speed Boost, the talent is not bad.)
Torchic looked around and silently made an assessment of this group of new colleagues.
Miltank, looks silly, should be the easiest to get along with.
Vespiquen has a sisterly temperament, and there are a bunch of Combee next to it. I can't afford to offend it, so it's better to stay away from it.
Staraptor, it's so careless and unreliable.
Torterra, like a good old guy. He shouldn't bully newcomers, but he's also unlikely to help him get ahead.
Rotom, is this thing short-circuited? Dangerous elements, stay away.
Luxray, aloof, hard to get close to.
Kirlia!
The only normal Pokémon, good review! Gentle, elegant and polite, she is simply an angel!
It silently leaned closer to Kirlia, thinking it would be safer to follow this one.
