Journey Towards Greatness 277 Julian Vs Gardenia 3

Gardenia seems to be very confident in her choice, Julian didn't know she had a Breloom, from the things he searched on the internet nothing specified on her Breloom, she either just caught it or it's her secret pokemon that she uses to battle stronger opponents.

Now Julian wants to see what this Breloom is really made off, Brelooms are good pokemon but their pre-evolutions are very weak, even after training they don't develop until they evolve so many don't raise them, but when it evolves it becomes a really good physical attacker.

Gardenia "Breloom, let's begin, attack using Mach Punch"

As Gardenia gave her command Breloom bolted towards Victini

Julian 'Its really fast'

Julian is really surprised by how fast this Breloom moves.

Julian "Teleport"

Victini disappears and reappears far away, Mach Punch can never be missed but if there is no target to hit then it will miss, Teleport is really a useful skill but Julian has to stop using it at one point as it will soon drain Victini's powers and it will feel tired.

Gardenia "Breloom use Stone Edge"

Breloom started to use the big moves from the start.

Julian "Use Brick Break"

Since Gardenia is going big Julian also decided to go head-on, he cannot keep using Teleport or Victini won't have enough energy to finish the battle with its powerful special attack.

Victini shattered the Stone Edge with the Brick Break.

Gardenia "Breloom use Force Palm"

Julian "Fire Punch"

Both of them once again exchanged moves and this time it is Breloom who got the upper hand and sent Victini rolling in the sky but that is what Julian needed, he needed to make some distance between Victini and Breloom, since Breloom is too fast and he cannot afford to use too many teleports.

With this Exchange, Julian has the right distance for Victini to make the final move, but Gardenia made another move.

Gardenia "Use Sky Uppercut"

Julian "Counter with Fire Punch again"

Victini used Fire Punch and exchanged one more hit, Victini went even higher than before and Breloom is now having the effects of exchanging blows with Victini's fire type moves, its knees has become sore.

It landed on the ground and went on its knee as the pain took in, it greeted its teeth.

Julian 'Victini is too far, its attack won't land unless Breloom gets a little closer'

Julian "Victini, use Incinerate"

Victini sent another blast of flames towards Breloom.

Gardenia " Dodge it and use Sky Uppercut again"

Since the attack was from far away Breloom easily dodged the attack and charged towards Victini and jumped high with its powerful legs using Sky Uppercut.

Julian "Victini, let's finish this, use Searing Shot"

This is Victini's most powerful move right now unless it learns the move Overheat or it's signature move V-Create.

A ring of blazing flames expanded and engulfed everything around Victini, including Breloom who was charging at it.

Being engulfed in this hot flames it got blasted back to the ground.

Victini adjusted itself with its psychic energy and landed on the ground, Breloom got back to its feet barely and it was about to attack Victini again but the Burn effect kicked and Breloom got blazed by fire.

It collapsed on the ground and fainted, Victini is also very tired and huffed heavily, it then looked at Julian and Crystal and showed its victory signature.

Julian smiled, and Crystal used its tiny fingers to do the same but when it saw its tiny fingers it wanted to cry as it cannot do the victory sign, luckily Julian calmed it down before it started to cry.

Referee "Breloom is unable to battle, Victini wins, the winner of this challenge is the challenger"

The result is in, Julian has won.

Gardenia sighs and sends her Breloom back to its Pokeball.

She then approached Julian and took out a badge from her pocket and handed it over to Julian, it's the Forest Badge.

Gardenia "Its the first time I have faced a trainer as strong as you, and your Victini is really special"

Julian "Thankyou, I am also very impressed by your battle style"

Gardenia "By the way what is your name?"

Julian "It's Julian"

Gardenia "Julian? Ah its the same name as the previous Champion of Kanto"

Julian "Yes, I will be going then"

Julian smiled and walked away, Victini hopped onto his shoulder and talked with Crystal.

Too bad Gardenia doesn't know that she just talked to Julian.

Julian soon walked out of the gym and noticed that the pokemons present here.

Julian 'They must have run away after hearing all those explosions inside'

He thought and looked into his phone.

Julian 'I cannot go to Snowpoint city as the gym there also has a more than five badges rule, my next stop is either Veilstone City or Hearthome City'

Julian looked for a while and decided to go to Hearthome City as its the closest one and there seems to be forest area, he might catch some pokemons there.

Julian 'Ok next stop Hearthome city'.
