Journey Towards Greatness

Chapter 950 - Julian Vs Yesh, The Finals (1)

Julian "It's time, I guess"

He said as he started to hear the voice of the announcer, the announcer began his announcement and started to introduce the special guests and other important figures who will watch this battle along with him. ??

Once he was done he started to introduce the trainers of this battle.

Back inside Julian's room, a man in a black t-shirt and a cap walked in and informed Julian that its time, Julian nodded and followed the man towards the entrance of the battlefield and stood there waiting for his call.

The announcer began the introduction.

Announcer "The first trainer is young but strong, he became the ultimate dark horse of this tournament, he came from nowhere and rose through the rankings defeating every opponent that stood across him, and now he is finally here, on the grandest stage of them all to face off against the strongest ever, its Yesshhhhhhhh"

Yesh was called in, fireworks blew and light up the bright sky, the entrance on the other side got covered with smoke and from the smoke came out Yesh, with his usual emotionless face.

The crowd on the other hand didn't care about this at all, they thought it is part of his charm, they cheered for him nonetheless.

Yesh looked around as he noticed that the crowd is louder than usual, he then ignored them and took his position on the battlefield while looking at the other entrance waiting for Julian.

Announcer "Our next trainer needs no introduction, he is the only person in the history of the league to stay undefeated over three leagues and this might be his fourth one, he has been unstoppable from the day he stepped foot into the battlefield. Some people say that he is the greatest trainer to ever step foot in this world.

So will this trainer prove to the world that he really is undefeatable by winning his fourth league?

This trainer is none other than Juliaannnnnnnnn"

The announcer called Julian.

As his name was announced fireworks shot into the sky and created a spectacular view, Julian who was standing inside the entranceway saw smoke shooting out in front of him, it was his queue to walk in.

He entered the battlefield through the smokescreen revealing himself to the world.

People shouted their lungs out as they saw him walk into the battlefield, his name could be heard all over the city and beyond, people are really behind him, with his powerful reputation came unimaginable fame.

Throughout history, people are known to follow the strong, and in their eyes, Julian is the strongest so they are crazy over him, they want to cheer for him and see him victorious, his undefeated streak contributed to his fame, money, and power.

Julian smiled and waved at them which got him an even bigger response, Yesh saw this and wondered if people would start to do the same for him. If he reaches Julian's status, Yesh didn't realize this but he was changing slowly, he was becoming more and more human.

Julian then turned his attention on his student who is waiting for him, he walked towards the drawn markings and took his position while looking into Yesh's eyes.

Julian "Do you think you have a chance?"

He asked.

Yesh "20%"

Julian just nods his head with a smile and looks at the referee to start the battle.

The referee looks at both trainers before starting to explain the rules of the battle.

Referee "This will be a six on six pokemon battle, both trainers are allowed to switch pokemons during or in the middle of the battle, the person with no pokemons at the end of the battle loses.

Am I clear?"

He explains and asks to which he gets a nod of agreement from both parties.

Referee "Then, you may choose your first pokemons"

With the referee's call, Julian went first and sent out his first pokemon on the battlefield.

Julian tossed a Pokeball into the battlefield and out came a red spinning ball which then landed on his feet and started to beat his chest with his massive arms, Julian sent out his Darmanitan.

Throughout this whole league, Julian used his Darmanitan only once and that was at the beginning of the league and now he reappears.

Seeing Julian's choice, Yesh tensed up, he has been with Julian for quite a while and knows what kind of monster has just entered the battlefield, he could send his strongest pokemon as well but that would be a very stupid decision on his part.

He knows his first pokemon is going to get knocked out no matter who it is, even if it is Landorus, he needs to send someone weaker but not too weak as well, he needs to weaken this Darmanitan, and then knock it out.

Darmanitan is not Julian's strongest physical attacker, not his strongest defensive pokemon, he has shitty special attacks, his speed is above average as well, but what makes Darmanitan really dangerous is the output of power behind his attacks.

Darmanitan makes his attacks explode on purpose at contact making them terrifying.

Since Darmanitan loved explosions so much, he and Julian found a way to make his attacks more terrifying.

Yesh of course knows this, he was there when both of them began this training, and to this day, Yesh still has no idea how they are achieving it.

Julian "You remember Darmanitan right?"

Julian asked with a smile to which Yesh nodded.

Julian "Of course, you remember, you saw them when he was just a little cute Darumaka, but now he has turned into this, do you have anything that can down my Darmanitan?"

Julian asked again.

Yesh "I have some ideas"

Julian "Then, what are you waiting for, let's not waste the people's time and give them the battle that they are waiting for, send out your pokemon"

Yesh nodded and sent out his first choice, a massive blue pokemon entered the battlefield, it has three fins, two on top of its head and one big one on its back, it has two massive arms and powerful legs.

Yesh sent out Swampert, another pokemon Julian didn't expect to see from Yesh but it didn't matter, it is indeed a great choice, a water/ground type pokemon to face off against a fire type pokemon.
