"Howdy, ya'll! The name's Akiak Viima. I run the Ranch on behalf of the Town! What can I do you for today?"
What's a Ranch without Livestock? All Livestock here are sold at their youngest age, providing them with lots of time for you to raise and bond with them before they make produce for you to sell!
Who knows? Perhaps new species of Livestock will be sold at the Ranch as more of them are imported...
Note All Pokémon sold by the Desert Bloom Ranch are in their youngest/first evolutions. They must be Trained by their new owners to evolve and efficiently work.
Note At this time, Solarans are only allowed to own 1 Mount except Adventure Guilders, who can own 3 Mounts
Note Depictions of Pokémon must be recognizable - regardless of personal art style!
That's right! Solarans get to choose the size of the Companion they are purchasing!
Altermews come in all different shapes and sizes, and so do Pokémon! The size of a Mount or a Draft can vary, from XXS to XL! Same for Livestock. Solarans who are thinking of purchasing a brand new Mount or Draft Companion at the Desert Bloom Ranch should take into consideration the size they that would like.
But choose wisely! After all, it would be ridiculous to purchase a XXS Doduo and expect it to still be able to carry a rider even when it evolves into a Dodrio!
Use common sense when deciding on the size of a Pokémon!
Note For Livestock, the size of them does not affect the amount of Produce or Breeding results.
If your Submission features your character interacting with a Town NPC/Town Worker/Guilder who relates to your Purchase, then your item's price will be reduced!
Why, you might be asking?!
The Town Council encourages interactions and creativity, that's why!
Also! Got extra items or want to give something to a friend? You can send them a Gift!
Note Check here for information on how much Produce is sold for.

Unfortunately, only wild Pokémon are reported to be Alpha-sized, and even then, they are very rare when they are encountered. These wild Alpha-sized Pokémon are typically mounts classified Pokémon.
No! Livestock cannot be changed into a new role once bought.
