Journey Towards Greatness

Everyone went quiet, the moves that were just displayed were very powerful and it is a double KO, Absol's move was even stranger, a move which starts off as a tiny ball then shot as a devastating beam of pure dark energy.

Metagross's attack was just pure raw power and speed, Blaziken didn't even stand a chance against that charge. ​​

Announcer "ITS A DOUBLE KO"

The Announcer shouted on his mike as loud as he can, the crowd soon followed up as they cheered for Julian, people were taking pictures of Absol and Mega Metagross.

Some had seen another version of Mega Metagross on the internet and now when Julian's Mega Metagross got posted online people started to compare the two form, just like the two different versions of Charizard's Mega Evolution.

People compared their favorite forms, now at this exact moment the same thing is happening to Julian's Mega Metagross, people have already started to compare the two different forms.

Julian "Your Swampert was good and kept its cool the whole battle but you should take more care of your Blaziken, it's arrogant and sometimes arrogance might help in battle but not always"

Saying so Julian called back his pokemons and left the battlefield.

Outside the battlefield, Daisy and Chloe were waiting for him with their tiny pokemon by their side.

Daisy "It was a good battle"

Chloe "I don't think so, your battle with Barbara seemed more fun than this one"

Julian "It's just a battle, it's over, let it be"

Chloe "So the top 32 will start the day after tomorrow?"

Julian "Yes"

Daisy "Who do you think you will battle against in the finals?"

Julian "I don't know, I haven't seen others battle"

Chloe "Let's go I am hungry"

Julian and Daisy laughed and went to the restaurant that Daisy was talking about.

Next day Julian decided to take a walk outside and check out some stuff selling in local stores.

After going through the local market he came across an old man sitting on the footpath with some stones on a white cloth.

It seemed like normal stones to others but for Julian, they were very useful, why?

Because he could easily tell that these black stones contained Mega Stones that are for dark type pokemons.

He didn't expect to see three stones and all of them have different dark type mega stones.

He walked towards the old man and squatted down and looked at the three black stones, as he touched them he could confirm that he is not wrong, these stones really have Mega Stones in them, even these stones seemed special.

Julian "Mister? where did you find these stones?"

Old Man "When I was young I traveled the world, I found these stones in a cave in Sinnoh, I don't know what they are but I treasure them, sadly I need money to pay my wife's medical bills and I have to sell them"

Julian "How much do you want for all three of them?"

Old Man "3000 Pokedollars will do"

Julian gave him 50000 Pokedollars instead, this old man has no idea how much these costs, seeing Julian handing him 50000 Pokedollars the old man got shocked.

Old Man "Child this is too much money"

Julian "Don't worry mister, I think these stones cost more than what I am offering to you, just think that you are giving me a discount, and this money will help you pay for your wife's medical bills so no need to think twice about it"

Old Man "May Arceus look after you, child"

Julian "By the way, where is this cave you found these stones"

Old Man "I don't know, I just stumbled into it, I have no idea how I got in and how I got out, it was one of the most mysterious things I have ever experienced in my life"

Julian "I will be going then"

Julian got up and left with the three black stones, he now has to remove the outer layer to see what kind of mega stones are inside, these stones seem special as well, they are also emitting a dark aura.

Julian 'I cannot wait to see what's inside these'

Julian returned back to his room to extract the mega stones from inside.

Somewhere back in Kanto, Team Rocket's brand new headquarters, inside a private room Giovanni is sitting and watching the TV, he is watching Julian's battle of course.

Giovanni "That fucking monster, I just hope he doesn't foil my plans again, Mewtwo is nowhere to be seen and Team Galactic in Sinnoh is acting weird, I think I should send the new Admin of mine to Sinnoh to see how good she really is"

Giovanni said and took out his phone and called someone.

Giovanni "Come to my private room"

Soon a woman with blond hair walked in, she is, of course, one of the previous head of the Shadows, Beta, her real name Angela, she was lucky enough to not encounter Julian.

She looked at the TV and saw how Julian's pokemon destroyed their opponent, she stuttered looking at it.

Giovanni checked her out then nodded.

Giovanni "You know why you are an admin in Team Rocket?"

Angela "No Boss"

Giovanni "Because you were able to tell that a disaster was about to accrue and escaped from that monster"

Giovanni said and pointed at the TV, Angela looked at the TV and remained silent.

Giovanni "In my whole life I have never felt so much fear when he stared down into my eyes and warned me, but I cannot stop, my hunger for power is more than a fear installed in me"

Giovanni paused and looked at her once again.

Giovanni "As your first mission, you will go to Sinnoh, infiltrate Team Galactic and find out what they are up too"

Angela "Yes boss"

She left the room and left Giovanni all alone, he just kept staring at the screen.

Giovanni "Monsters".
