Journey Towards Greatness

Chapter 976 - Meeting Ash's New Friends



Professor Sycamore, Ash, and his new friends returned back to the lab with the Garchomp which is not completely calm.

When Sycamore got there, he was informed by Sophie about the person in the red jacket waiting for him inside the lab, Sycamore nodded and went into the lab, Ash and his two new friends followed Sycamore back in the lab. ​​

_________________

Julian was standing in front of an artificial lake that was built inside the lab for pokemons to live in, there are also other pokemons living here in the lab but most of these pokemons are quite small, Julian understands why most of the pokemons are small.

It's because of budget, with bigger pokemons comes bigger spending so most Professors like to keep small pokemons in their lab while going to the wild to observe other pokemons.

The only exception is Professor Oak, he is one of the richest and most famous Pokemon Professor, the amount of funding that Professor Oak gets is more than any other professor under the league's jurisdiction, that is why he is able to take care of all the pokemons that live behind his lab, while some of those pokemons enter the wild, others stay behind as they feel much safer there.

Professor Sycamore might be the main Professor of Kalos but he is nowhere near Professor Oak's level.

Julian just stood there and watched the pokemons play around when he heard footsteps coming towards his direction, he turned his head and noticed Professor Sycamore coming towards him along with Ash and the two blond kids, the little girl seems to be around five to six years old while her brother is the same age as Ash.

Julian looked at them and wondered who they are, Julian is always surprised by Ash's ability to make friends in seconds.

He then looked at the Garchomp standing next to Professor Sycamore, this Garchomp was the same one that went berserk and caused havoc in the city, luckily it looks like it is back to its normal demeanor.

He approached the Garchomp and took a good look at it, he patted its head and realized that this Garchomp is very docile and calm compared to the ones he has encountered before, though this one is a female, female Garchomps are not known to be docile either.

Even female Garchomp are alert and don't take a liking to strangers, but this one was friendly from the very start, his Garchomp is also very aggressive towards strangers.

He was surprised by how friendly this Garchomp was, it even snuggled its head on Julian's hand, Julian smiled and rubbed its jaw as well, it's not easy to encounter such a friendly Garchomp.

Julian "Such a good Garchomp, she has been trained well"

Julian complimented and looked at Professor Sycamore.

Sycamore "We try our best to provide the best environment for the pokemons that live here, Garchomp here is also the pokemon I am using to study Mega Evolution as well."

Sycamore explained.

Julian nodded and looked at Ash.

Julian "You did well, saving Garchomp but you shouldn't put yourself at risk like before"

Julian warned Ash.

Ash "Ahh! I don't know, I just jumped without thinking, haha"

Ash laughed while scratching his head.

"ARE YOU REALLY JULIAN?"

The little blond girl shouted excitedly as she stared at Julian with sparkling eyes, Julian was caught off-guard as the little girl shouted out of nowhere.

Julian removed his mask and smiled at the little girl.

Julian "I am"

Julian said looking at the little girl and crouched down in front of the little girl.

"Oh my Arceus, you really are Julian, I am a huge fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

She screamed in excitement and danced around before looking at Julian again.

"Hello, my name is Bonnie and this is my brother Clemont"

The little girl introduced herself and then her brother who was standing beside her, the boy with blond hair is also staring at Julian as well.

Julian "Nice to meet you, it looks like Ash made good friends"

He said and smiled.

Clemont "Ni..Ni...Nice to me...meet you too!"

Clemont said and bowed his head, Julian could tell that the boy is very nervous, he is nothing like his little sister who is very extroverted and cheerful all the time.

Julian "Ease up, no need to be so tense around me"

Julian said to Clemont but it didn't seem to work, it just caused Clemont to get more worked up.

Julian decided to let the boy alone because the more he talked with Clemont the more worked up he got, Julian then decided to talk to Sycamore and ask him for the reason why he is here.

Julian "Professor Sycamore, I think it's time"

Julian said.

Sycamore "Ah! I totally forgot about it, let's go."

He said and guided Julian into the lab again, Ash and his new friends followed right behind them as well as they were curious about what Julian is talking about.

All of them entered the lab and headed towards the underground facility, Sycamore beeped his watch and called for his assistant as they will be headed towards the underground facility where the Porygons are kept.

Julian is a little excited to see them as he wants to see the Porygons as they are even rarer than legendaries, they are the very first man-made pokemons.
