Journey Towards Greatness

Julian took the paper Chloe handed to him and looked at it, they seem to be auctioning many rare items today.

Today's rarest item is the Enigma Berry, it is the rarest berry one could find, Julian was surprised seeing that this is being auctioned in this small village. ​​

He had no use for it but people say that this berry has the power of stars in it.

Julian "Do you want the Enigma berry?"

Chloe "I don't need it, I am after this one"

She said and pointed towards a Pokeball, it is a very rare Pokeball that is only made in limited numbers per year, a Luxury Ball.

These balls have a very special effect on pokemons, the pokemons caught in it become friendly to their trainer very quickly, this ball is also plated with gold and rare expensive stones.

Julian sighed, he knew that Chloe likes shiny stuff very much.

Julian "Ok, let's get that for you, Daisy what do you want?"

Daisy "I want the Shiny Stone"

Daisy pointed at the Shiny Stone, it is also a very rare evolution stone when Daisy's Budew evolves into Roselia she can further evolve her into Roserade using this Shiny Stone.

Since this auction is selling some rare things he decided to enter, maybe he can find something interesting.

He and the girls soon sat down on a table for three and waited for the auction to start, the waiter came to them and gave them a display board which had a number on it, this is used for the bidding.

He let them order some food and waited for the auction to start.

Outside the auction house, Ash and his friends also arrived.

Ash "Guys, let's go and check it out"

May "I want to eat here, I heard the food here is delicious"

Brock "Maybe I can find something to buy here as well"

As they entered the hotel themed auction house some people followed them as well. It was, of course, the three idiots of Team Rocket.

Meowth "Are you guys thinking what I am thinking"

Jessie "Of course, we can steal all the things they are going to auction, we will become filthy rich after this"

James "Then I can buy all the rare bottle caps for my luxury collection with all that money"

Jessie "Shut up, we are going to spend it on a trip to a vacation island where there are lots of delicious food and cool breeze"

Meowth "Let's go in and see what's going on"

"Waaabaa"

Jessie's Wobbuffet came out and was about to shout but got shut down by Jessie, soon the four entered the auction house, Meowth and Wobbuffet dressed up to look like a man, Jessie and James also disguised themselves and entered the auction.

They soon took a seat on an empty table and looked around, as Meowth was looking around he froze on the spot as he saw Julian looking at them.

_____________________

When they entered the auction house, Julian felt something annoying is going to happen and he was right he saw the goons of team rocket entering the building.

Julian 'These idiots are here as well, this means that Ash is also here'

He looked around and noticed Ash and his friends at the other corner of the building.

Julian 'Hm let them be'

Julian then looked back at the team rocket idiots.

Meowth who noticed Julian staring at them started to sweat.

Meowth "Guys, I think we should abandon the plan"

James "What are you talking about?"

Meowth "Look there"

Meowth pointed at Julian, James followed his hand's direction and noticed Julian smiling at them, he felt chills run down his spine as he saw that smile.

James "Ya let's get out of here"

Jessie just froze, she is still scared of the horrors that Julian's Gyarados and Gengar has brought to them.

Meowth, Wobbuffet, and James took Jessie and excited out of the building.

Julian just looked at them leaving silently.

Julian 'They are very wise, such a waste they are being treated as useless fools by Giovanni, maybe I might have some use for them'

Julian thought and kept these three in his mind, no matter how annoying they are Julian had to admit these three are good at everything they do except stealing pokemons, stealing data they can do it, selling products they can do it, fooling people easy for them, disguising themselves without anybody recognizing them they got that too.

Julian 'They are indeed multi-talented, their talent would rot if they are in Team Rocket, I should use them for some other reasons'

Julian though and put his focus back to the auction.

He was not as lucky as he thought he is today as he didn't find anything interesting in this auction, he bought the Luxury ball and the Shiny stone for Chloe and Daisy.

The day soon came to an end as they returned to their room.

Julian 'I should get ready for the top 32 and also check out the Mega Evolution on Tyranitar and Absol'.
