Pokémon: My Farm Adventures

*****

Swords Dance can greatly increase its own Attack.

This Farfetch'd knows Swords Dance, and if it gets to stack Swords Dance, it won't be easy to handle.

At this moment, the ground shook violently!

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd's Swords Dance was abruptly interrupted. Its body struggled to maintain balance on the shaking ground, and it tumbled forward onto the ground.

Bulldoze, a Ground-type move.

After Sandslash absorbed the Ground-type treasure, the power of all its Ground-type moves increased accordingly.

With a single stomp, the surrounding land began to tremble.

"Sandslash, Sandstorm!"

"Chirp chirp~"

Sandslash let out a low growl.

In an instant, the field was filled with swirling sand and flying debris; a cloud of yellow sand engulfed everything!

The Sandstorm covered both Sandslash and Farfetch'd entirely.

"Farfetch'd!"

It seemed to be Farfetch'd's first encounter with such a move.

Within the realm of the Sandstorm, it momentarily lost its sense of direction.

The impact of weather on a battle is immense.

As a result, many powerful trainers have developed a variety of tactics based on different weather conditions.

"Sandslash, Swift!"

Sandslash was completely unaffected by the Sandstorm.

Swift shot rapidly toward Farfetch'd!

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd's eyes narrowed, and it swung its Leek, meeting Swift head-on.

Bang~

This Farfetch'd clearly had a straightforward, hard-hitting battle style.

Natsume thought for a moment, and an idea formed in her mind.

"Sandslash, run in front of Farfetch'd and use Dig!"

"Chirp chirp~"

Sandslash immediately burrowed underground.

Farfetch'd saw a hole appear in the Sandstorm-filled ground and, without hesitation, jumped down with its Leek.

Natsume couldn't help but laugh: "It really jumped!"

"Sandslash, pop out and use Bulldoze!"

As soon as Farfetch'd jumped down, Sandslash quickly emerged from the other side.

Standing at the mouth of the hole, it unleashed Bulldoze!

Boom~ Crash!

The entrance collapsed instantly.

Farfetch'd was buried beneath the ground.

"Be careful, this Farfetch'd likely hasn't completely lost its battle capability. Get ready for another Bulldoze!"

Natsume warned as she looked at Sandslash.

"Sandshrew!"

Sandslash nodded seriously in acknowledgment.

Bang!

At that moment, the ground exploded, sending dirt flying.

Farfetch'd, panting and dragging its Leek, had just clawed its way out from below when Sandslash stood right in front of it.

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd looked up just in time to see Sandslash's big foot coming down at its face.

Bulldoze!

Boom!

Rotom immediately flew out.

"The match is over!"

"The overconfident Farfetch'd has lost its battle capability, and the cool Sandslash is the winner!"

Rotom announced the result with great enthusiasm.

Arcanine and the others cheered loudly at the outcome.

Ding dong.

Natsume glanced at her phone.

Sakura: Mr. Natsume, what's with the Sandstorm on your farm?

Natsume: Hold on a moment.

"Sandslash, disperse the Sandstorm."

Sandslash waved its claws, and the surrounding Sandstorm dissipated immediately.

In the sky, a Fearow slowly descended.

Sakura stepped out from the carriage beneath the Fearow, looking both amused and exasperated at Natsume. "Why is it either raining or a Sandstorm whenever I come here?"

Natsume chuckled. "I guess your timing just isn't great."

"If you don't mind, please wait a moment."

"I'll take care of that Farfetch'd's injuries first."

Sakura glanced at the fallen Farfetch'd and nodded slightly. "Of course, take your time."

Natsume approached Farfetch'd and used Eternity Power to heal its wounds.

"Farfetch'd."

Farfetch'd slowly opened its eyes, staring at Sandslash in disbelief.

"Sandslash~"

Sandslash pointed to Dragonair and called out to Farfetch'd.

Sandslash seemed to say: I'm the weakest here, and if you can't even defeat me, how do you plan to challenge Dragonair?

Farfetch'd immediately showed a look of existential doubt.

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd questioned Sandslash about its strength.

"Sandslash~"

Sandslash pointed toward Natsume.

Farfetch'd looked over at Natsume.

Suddenly, it realized that Sandslash had only won against it because it was under Natsume's command.

"Farfetch'd!"

Being adaptable, Farfetch'd slid to the ground before Natsume in a pleading manner.

"Do you want to be my apprentice?"

Natsume found this Farfetch'd very amusing as she watched it.

Thoughts arose about how lively the farm would surely be with it around.

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd nodded seriously.

"Alright then."

Natsume smiled, "But the training here is quite tough."

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd confidently patted its chest.

Farfetch'd wasn't afraid of hard work!

"Since that's the case, come on in."

Natsume took out a Poké Ball, and Farfetch'd, holding its Leek, eagerly tapped the ball.

Shake~ Ding!

Farfetch'd was captured!

"Come out, Farfetch'd."

"Farfetch'd~"

Natsume released Farfetch'd again.

"Everyone, move around freely."

"Rotom, give Farfetch'd a tour."

Rotom glanced at Farfetch'd with disdain. "Fine, Rotom."

"Houndoom~"

"Awooo!"

Houndoom and Arcanine seemed uninterested in getting along with Farfetch'd and turned to run off to the side.

"It seems learning how to get along with everyone will be your first lesson, Farfetch'd."

"Farfetch'd!"

Farfetch'd rested its Leek on its back, responding nonchalantly.

"Noibat~"

Noibat yawned.

Natsume gently rubbed Noibat's head. "Go take a nap inside."

"Noibat~"

Sakura watched everything from the side and said, "Mr. Natsume seems like a very kind person."

Natsume smiled at Sakura. "Thank you."

"Let's check the food supplies first."

Natsume took out a Storage Ball.

A total of 1,200 pounds of Hearty Grains had been collected.

Because the Pokémon on the farm were increasing, 200 pounds were kept for herself.

There were also 300 pounds of Plump Beans, from which 200 pounds were taken out.

"What do you think?"

Sakura grabbed a handful of Hearty Grains, watching them slip through her fingers. "Impressive."

"This quality is outstanding!"

"And the Plump Beans too!"

Sakura looked at Natsume with a peculiar expression. "Mr. Natsume, these aren't leftovers from last time, are they?"

Natsume chuckled. "That doesn't matter."

Sakura nodded. "Hearty Grains are still 500 yen per pound."

"For this batch of Hearty Grains, take all for 500,000 yen."

"For the Plump Beans, can I buy them at 300 yen per pound?"

Natsume: "That's fine."

"That'll be 60,000 then."

"Altogether, that's 560,000 Pokémon Coins."
