Journey Towards Greatness 38 Team Rocket Duo

Julian woke up pretty early as today he was boarding the ship to go to the Mainland, He got ready and boarded the ship after traveling for two days he finally reached a port near Fuschia city leaving the ship he took out his bike from his s.p.a.ce pouch and rode it towards the city to refill his stock when he reached there he saw someone he didn't want to, it was Ash and it looked liked he has defeated Koga recently, Julian didn't want to get into trouble by meeting Ash as where ever he goes trouble follows him.

Julian reached the Market and refilled his stocks as he was about to leave he heard someone call his name, he couldn't help but shake his head as he knew the voice it was Ash's, Julian cursed his bad luck as he couldn't escape this trouble master.

(A/N - Lol he never became a pokemon master at least he is a master at something)

Julian turned around to see that Ash ran up to him and behind him where Brock and Misty

Ash "Hi Julian are you here to battle the Gym leader Koga but I have to remind you that he is very strong and I even got a badge"

Ash pulled out his jacket and shows Julian his Six badges, Julian just nods his head

Julian 'Looks like I wasted a lot of time roaming around leaving even Ash to nearly catch up to me and Gary must already have seven or at least eight but being the brat he is he won't sit still and collect more badges'

Julian "I see you already have six badges, that's good but I think you should hurry"

Ash "Hurry? for what?"

Julian "You don't want Gary to brag about himself in front of you right, from what I know that brat already has seven to eight badges"

Ash "Oh no how could I forget about that, guys lets go I have to get by next badge soon"

Ash drags Brock and Misty with him to leave the city leaving Julian behind, Julian smiles seeing this

Julian 'Its really easy to fool this kid just distract him for a little and he will forget everything he wants to do, well using the Gary card I am now free so I should also continue'

Julian rides of towards lavender town as his next destination is the Rock Tunnel which can only be reached by going through lavender town

Julian 'I should visit Mr. Smith to see how he is doing'

Julian after camping training and riding finally reached Lavender town after four days

Julian 'Man even though the maps of Kanto in my previous world looked small, being here is a different experience it took me four days just to reach Lavender town from Fuschia city'

As Julian entered the town it was the same usual place filled with peace and quiet and a little creepy feeling after seeing the Pokemon tower from far, Julian came in front of Mr. Smith's house and knocked but no one answered Julian then tried to open the door and to his surprise the door was opened and when he went in there was no one there but the tea table was flipped and some vase broken seeing this Julian became angry and walked out he knocked at the door of the neighbor but they didn't answer.

Julian, knew that someone was inside he didn't care and broke the door with a kicked and walked in he saw a skinny man scared at the corner holding a stick in his hand to defend himself, seeing Julian staring at him coldly the skinny man was about to s.h.i.t his pants

Julian "Tell me what happened in Mr. Smith's house?"

Julian doesn't want to waste any time so he just released a heavy pressure which he learned to do after he started to cultivate the spiritual energy around him, feeling such heavy pressure the skinny man didn't want to offend Julian and just reviled everything

Skinny Man "Two people came to the town early saying that they were the member of team rocket or something and they demanded to hand over all the pokemons to the people living here some of them refused so those two people forcefully captured them with their pokemon and tried to escape but those people chased them towards the Pokemon tower"

Julian "That's all?" His face was still cold

Skinny Man "Yes that's all I know now please spare me"

Julian didn't even bother to look at him a second as he threw some pokedollars at him and left for destroying his door, he hopped on to his bike and drove off towards the tower.

When he reached near the tower he heard some people talking he stopped his bike as he didn't want to all alert them, he walks towards the source of the voice and saw a machine with huge mechanical hands one holding a cage filled with pokemons and in the other was Mr. Smith struggling

Butch "Old man I said you to give up you are already old and near death bed why do you want pokemons and that goes to all of those old fools lying on the ground"

Ca.s.sidy "Yes, you old fools don't need pokemons, they are better being used by the boss to dominate the world hahahaha"

Julian seeing this was really mad seeing people injured on the ground and Mr. Smith being tortured really hit his nerve.

Julian "Infernape come out"

Infernape came out and saw the situation and knew that those two fools are in for a really big trouble

Julian "Activate blaze then flame charge"

Infernape now had full control over his firepower after evolving and now going into blaze was just a thought for him as Infernape roared fire danced wildly above his head as flames started to spin around him and rose above all reaching the sky turning the whole place orange from the light of the fire and heat, if there was a volcano here people would think that a volcano erupted.

Butch and Ca.s.sidy where startled by this sudden change and when they turned around to see what was happening they saw a flame raging towards them before they could even react the flame went through their machine from one end to another like a like knife through b.u.t.ter as this happened the huge robot sparked and its hands got loose releasing Mr. Smith and the cage full of pokemons

Julian "Ivysaur come out and use vine whip to catch Mr. Smith and the cage"

Ivysaur strength has risen significantly and he could even lift huge boulders of rock with vine whip so catching a cage full of pokemons and Mr. Smith was no deal.

Ivysaur caught them and landed them slowly onto the ground

Julian "Kabutops come out and use Metal Claw to cut the cage down"

Kabutops came out and swiftly cut the bars of the cage freeing the pokemons inside and then a Marowak came out and ran towards Mr. Smith to see if he was ok

Julian 'Looks like Cubone has evolved'

Suddenly there was a huge boom as the robot exploded into pieces and Butch and Ca.s.sidy fell down on the ground turning black by the smoke, they both didn't even know what happened and they were already on the ground as they looked around they saw the pokemons they s.n.a.t.c.hed has been freed and there was a young man in the middle with three pokemons with him, they knew that this man was responsible for their current state

Ca.s.sidy "How dare you to attack the prestige members of team rock?" she shouted in extreme anger

Butch "Yes you don't know who are you messing with"

Julian "Who even are you, two clowns?"

Julian, of course, knew who they were but he had no interest in them as they were just useless side characters even though better than the team rocket trio Julian didn't care

Butch "Prepare for the trouble you got that right"

Ca.s.sidy "And make it doubl- wait did you call use clowns"

Butch "Hey Ca.s.sidy we didn't finish our introduction"

Julian "Shut up you idiots if I hear another word from your mouths I will make you suffer very badly"

Butch and Ca.s.sidy suddenly got chills after hearing him and seeing his cold eyes staring down at them they felt really scared, they thought that a devil was looking deep into their soul but they quickly shook it off and came back to normal

Ca.s.sidy "How dare you, go Houndour, Raticate"

Butch "Go Primeape, Hitmontop"

Ca.s.sidy "Raticate use Bite, Houndour use Fire Fang"

Butch "Primeape use Karate chop, Hitmontop Rapid Spin"

Julian "Infernape use Heat Blast on the fighting duo, Kabutops use Stone Edge on Houndour, Ivysaur use Solar Beam on Raticate"

The distance between the two teams was enough for them to launch their full power attacks as Heat Blast went ripping the ground with full force and decimating both fighting pokemons and Stone edge sent Houndour flying and Solar Beam just left a deep trail behind it and sent Raticate flying, Butch and Ca.s.sidy were shocked as their pokemons were one hit and sent flying, they realized they were no match and tried to escape after calling their pokemons back.

Julian "You can't just go away like that, let me help you"

Butch and Ca.s.sidy suddenly froze on the spot as they felt chill down their spine

Julian "Infernape Flamethrower"

Infernape sent a powerful flame thrower blasting them off to the sky after this Julian approached Mr. Smith

Julian "Mr. Smith are you ok?"

Mr. Smith "Ah, Julian its good that you came on time or I didn't know what to would happen to these people and pokemons and don't worry I am fine"

Julian "I think we should go to your house and let you rest you must be tired"

Mr. Smith "Yes, yes let's go"

The people also left with their pokemons as Julian dropped Mr. Smith at his house, he was asked to stay for the day but he refused but Mr. Smith insisted so he only agreed to stay for a while and leave.

Mr. Smith couldn't do anything and agreed, Julian let Kabutops play with Marowak as they both have evolved but where still like kids, after being served some food to them Julian ate and stayed there for few hours so Kabutops could play around with Marowak after this Julian continued his journey as his next destination was the Powerplant.
