Sabrina plops on the Couch in the living Room, where she and Vanessa previously chatted.
Bulbasaur is out training either leech seed or razor leaf, something ranched from its bulb at least, Sabrina guesses.
Selling her Products didn’t pose any Problem in the End.
They even got praised, which makes her a bit conflicted.
On one side, she didn’t do anything besides nit messing it up, on the other hand, it’s hers now, right?
But before she can go to deep into the matter, she reads the Books again.
It’s the same one were she skimmed the contest for only the most important parts.
She didn’t read it whole until now, which she should do if she wants to continue making a good job.
In there are also many pictures of things she found in the storage, clarifying what they do.
Should I get into the Habit of checking weather predictions?
But there is a warning about how they use Castform for it, and they only predict it right at where Castforms are.
There, I should watch out what multiple stations say, and even without trying to keep an eye on the sky and keep tarps ready.
Best case if having a Castfrom, as they can predict the Weather for up to three hours prior, when properly trained.
“Having many hands is always good, but it shouldn’t be underestimated how dexterous Pokemon can act with Mouth, Hooves and similar.”
Tauros probably won’t help me, seeing his demenar.
But I probably should have an Heart to Heart talk with him.
Deciding that inside the Lounge is fine, she puts away the carpet and lets Tauros out.
”Tau!”
”Pssst. I called you out so that we can have a proper talk.
It’s fine if you get emotional, but refrain from throwing a tantrum.”
”Ros.”
A Stare showdown happened between the two of them.
Sabrina doesn’t understand what Tauros’s Reason is for his attitude here, while Tauros is just defiant.
”Okay, I am going to say it as I see.
Either you are at least ready to open you mind for what I ask or nothing is going to work.
It’s fine to argue if you have a Point, but when everything backing your defiance is pride, then nothing is going to work.
You already noticed that I am decisive when you are plainly uncooperative.
Two Options. You either decide to remain stubborn and I am going to talk with a Ranger about releasing you or selling you.
If you don’t want that your my responsibility, then you won’t be my responsibility. Simple as that.
Second would accepting that you have to take care of me and I of you.
Every time I tried to give you treats or Pokechow you trashed it around, eating the Grass on the ground.
Plainly obvious that you don’t like me and insist on it, even though you shouldn’t know me.
Whatever your train of thought is, I can’t change it, and the result speak for itself.
So, wanting the first choice? Then we have to find out if we sell or release you.”
”Tauros.”
Without hesitation he nodded at that, calling his Name to emphasise his Point.
”Okay, before we continue, I need you to agree to at least give me the ride to the City.”
”Tau!”The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.
A Snort.
”Then you have to wait inside the Pokeball or out on the Pasture eating Grass for the next occasion i have to go out.”
Don’t think I don’t notice that you eat the dirtied Pokechow or Treats sneakily afterwards.
You like them but not me, without wanting to compromise on something.
But I can’t fault it, as ruminants would need Grass all day, which I don’t know if he is, but not gonna risk his health for it.
Haaaa, I want to be angry at him for that but still act to soft. No, it isn’t soft but responsible in a way.
In the other Hand, not hating him for that is maybe soft again?
”Tau.”
”So you relent in that point?”
”Tau.”
I can see how he would rather go meek, but is to prideful for that.
Well, I guess that stubbornness could be useful for an Battler.
”So, wanting to be released?”
”Tau.”
”? Are you perhaps unsure?”
I really can’t say it. It wasn’t a clear affirmative but also not a denial.
”Tauros. Tau Tauros.”
”Scared about not finding a herd anymore after being captured?”
Thats the best point I can think of.
”Tauuu Ros.”
“Ah, wait a Moment, I have to think for a bit.”
”…”
”So, as an Herd Animal, you need an Herd in the wild.
You can’t take care of yourself, so you would need a Trainer.
But you can’t stand it to think you wear unruly caught just to get sold and gifted and whatnot.
So you stubbornly insist in hating the Trainer.
But you would need someone to take care like a Trainer again.
Which makes it a viscous circle.”
”…Tau.”
Tauros looked for a Moment like wanting to argue, but choose to relent and agree.
The whole thing wore him mentally down, as he sees no escape.
”Okay, tomorrow we have to talk about a Ranger how such cases are handled.
At worst I could release you at the Safari Zone, I believe. But that quite far.
Maybe there is a Procedure for such cases?”
”Tau?”
”Yeah, Safari Zone. Many Pokemon there which are bred and or trained to be captured at a relative wild open place, I think?
I am not an Expert. At some point I would like to go there myself, for the Pokemon you can capture there, buuut I have the whole Ranch here.
Not properly learning the Ropes for it foul be fatal if I come back and urgently need to do something, without knowing what.”
”Tau.”
”Sorry Sorry, not going to continue bother you with my Problems. Not like you make it hard for me.”
After everything was talked about, both parties have a stare showdown again.
At least Tauros perked up again after hearing of a potential Solution.
Well, perked up as in gazing as defiantly as before.
Sabrina didn’t notice while taking, but it seems Tauros had his Head hung lower and shoulder a bit down.
If that is an adept description for an quadrupled hoofed Pokemon.
”Okay, want to go in the Pokeball or out with Bulbasaur?”
”Tau.”
”Okay, just don’t do anything stupid.”
”Tauros.”
‘Who do you think I am?’ or something along the Line he seems to say.
Since Sabrina doesn’t want to risk it and let Tauros go out himself, she recalls him Back quickly and let him out through the Window.
She then goes back to her Book.
How to care for what berry, how pollinator Pokemon can help, grafting etc..
Grafting especially catches her attention.
The weird thing is, that noticeable results of grafting of berries seem to need excessive help from Pokemon.
Or Land blessed by Shaymin.
Otherwise, Turtwig, Roserade, Bellosom, Trevenant, pollinator Pokémon’s, Gloom or Vileplums secretions and Pokemon with the ability Harvest can be very useful for checking the Condition of the Land and Pokemon and improving it.
Relaying on Meganium isn’t recommended, as revitalised Plants will lack Flavour and Nutritions that way, even though it speeds the process up.
Noting down the information, especially getting a Trevenant which is a Pokemon she really likes, she decides to read the last bits.
It’s only two Pages, but what makes Sabrina restless is how it goes into detail how good her Plot of Land is.
Even knowing it was blessed by a Shaymin, which she didn’t know.
And at the end is written ‘Author: Arceus.’.
Sabrina didn’t get an comfortable sleep tonight.
