Pokemon: I'm a Farmer

After returning to Rex's Farm, Rex released all six Mareep.

They had been confined in Poké Balls for the past few days, which had undoubtedly stifled their curiosity about the outside world.

So, once released, they stretched their legs and ran around freely.

"By my side is Miss Yuli. From now on, she will take care of you. You must listen to her, understood?"

After letting the Mareep run around for a while, Rex finally spoke.

"Mareep, Mareep!"

It turns out they just got a new caretaker. Crisis averted!

Rex thought had something important to announce, but apparently not!

After listening to Rex, the Mareep, who had been drawn over by his presence, called out a few times before returning to play.

"Whip, where's my whip?"

Unexpectedly, these Mareep were so rude. Rex couldn't help but feel annoyed.

"Hehe!"

Seeing Rex embarrassed, Yuli couldn't help but laugh.

"I'll watch over them here, and I'll take your luggage to your room!"

Rex quickly made his escape.

"Alright, I'll take care of them, boss!"

Yuli readily agreed.

At noon, Rex personally cooked some dishes to welcome Yuli.

However, after Yuli finished eating, she insisted on cooking herself in the future.

This made Rex, who prided himself as a chef, a little unhappy.

However, after eating the dinner cooked by Yuli, Rex immediately declared that he would never enter the kitchen again without her permission.

"Sigh, sigh!"

That was the sound of an unidentified Tailow's agreement.

The next day,

Rex rarely slept until 9 o'clock. When he came downstairs, he found breakfast already prepared on the table.

And the Mareep had already finished their Moomoo Milk and were out playing.

"Boss, you're up. I made breakfast for you, and the Mareep have finished their milk and are playing outside."

Yuli, who had been watching the Mareep outside, walked in upon hearing the movement, reporting to Rex.

"Alright, thank you, Yuli!"

Indeed, being the boss was better than working for someone else!

Rex, who was arranged properly, couldn't help but think so.

After breakfast, Rex soaked the seeds he had purchased in nutrient solution. According to the store clerk, they would sprout in just 24 hours and would be ready to plant.

Afterward, Rex took his tools and began clearing some land for planting grass and fruit trees.

Originally, Yuli wanted to help, but Rex didn't allow it. After all, the agreed-upon job scope was to take care of the Mareep.

At noon, the items purchased yesterday had been delivered to the farm one after another. Especially the set of power generation equipment, which Rex installed in a warehouse near the house and connected it to the interior through wires.

Now they always had electricity.

Yuli also had a phone, which she said was bought for her by the orphanage director when he heard she had found a job on the farm.

"Phew, finally done!"

The work of the day exhausted Rex. Fortunately, he managed to clear enough land before dark.

Rex had only done the simplest digging work, but even so, it was very tiring. At one point, he even thought about giving up. But in the end, he gritted his teeth and finished it.

"No, it seems I'll need to recruit some Pokémon that can work in the future."

The more he thought about it, the more he realized he didn't come to this world to do manual labor.

There were Pokémon here that could greatly free up labor, and he had been influenced by his past life's thinking.

However, now that the land had been cleared, he could start planting tomorrow.

Afterward, Rex planned to go to Orange Forest to capture some Pokémon to enrich his farm.

"Mareep, as the leader, you must protect your younger siblings, understand?"

Before setting off, Rex said to the shiny Mareep.

This guy had officially left its infancy yesterday and could now be considered a mature Pokémon.

After Rex's inspection, this guy had already learned the move Thunder Shock in advance. This was an Electric-type move with a power of up to 40, and it had a chance to paralyze the target upon hitting.

With Mareep around, Rex felt more at ease. At least with Mareep's presence, Yuli wouldn't be completely defenseless if they encountered invading Pokémon.

"Mareep, Mareep!"

With Mareep's assurance, Rex left the farm with peace of mind, heading to Orange Forest.

Of course, he didn't plan to stay out too long. He would return in the evening. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened, he would regret it.

Unfortunately, these past few days, he needed to use his ability to enhance the Mareep eggs, so the proud Tailow didn't dare to undergo high-intensity training during this time, slowing down its strength improvement.

However, the Tailow still brought him a surprise. It learned the move Double Team, a move that confuses the enemy.

It was understandable. The Tailow, who trained under heavy loads every day, had become much stronger, and its speed without the load was astonishing. Learning Double Team at this point was a natural fit.
