Journey Towards Greatness

Hearing Julian, Lapras calmed down and looked at Gyarados, she is still nervous but she stood her ground wondering what Julian will do.

Julian just looked at the Gyarados and realized that it was quite strong as well, the pokemons near the Sea Spirit's Den are actually a lot stronger compared to the ones that are a little further away from it. ​​

Julian wondered if there is any secret behind this or just that the rivalry is so strong that these pokemons are forced to improve and get stronger, Julian believed it to be later but he still hoped that he can find something.

As the Gyarados roared and tried to intimidate Lapras, Julian just watched and Lapras stood her ground, seeing that its intimidation tactic didn't work, Gyarados started to charge up a Hydro Pump to attack the intruders. Since it is a wild pokemon it doesn't care about safety, it is attacking to kill.

Julian "Shadow Ball"

Julian said suddenly a Shadow Ball shot out from the shadow under Lapras, the Shadow Ball hit the Gyarados right on its open jaw where it was charging up the Hydro Pump, the Shadow Ball exploded creating a powerful shockwave that almost split the water under Gyarados, the massive Gyarados was sent shooting through the air at high speed.

The Gyarados then crashed into the water and disappeared from Julian's sight, Julian knows that it's knocked out cold and it won't bother them anymore, Lapras was shocked by this and looked at her shadow but she saw nothing.

Julian "Let's continue"

He said and Lapras continued to move forward, after a few minutes Julian finally reached his destination, he saw a small rocky island in front of him, and right on top of the island was a cave-like entrance.

Just being close to the island, Julian could feel it, a very powerful aura leaking from inside, Lapras also sensed it and got a little nervous but continued forward, once Julian got close enough to set foot on the island, he jumped of Lapras's back and set his foot on the island.

Julian "Stay here and don't worry about your safety, I have Gengar looking out for you"

Julian said and pointed at her shadow, Lapras once again looked at her shadow and noticed two eyes staring at her, she knew that something was hiding in her shadow and now she could confirm it, she then watched Julian as he made his way into the cave.

As soon as he entered the cave, Julian could feel the pressure intensify instantly, it was very powerful and suppressing in nature, he continued forward, the pressure became more intense but he could handle it.

After walking for a few minutes he finally reached the end of the cave and as soon as he stepped foot on the open area in front of him an Ice Beam was shot at him, Julian jumped back dodging the move as he sensed the danger, he then looked through the edge trying to see what attacked him and to his surprise, it's a massive white pokemon staring at him with fierce eyes.

Julian "LUGIA?"

Julian exclaimed. He didn't expect to find Lugia here.

He looked at the Lugia and thought about this place's name, Sea Spirit's Den, then Julian realized that the Sea Spirit being mentioned is none other than the legendary pokemon Lugia.

He then dashed out of the cave and entered the open area, staying inside the small cave can be dangerous because Lugia can corner and blast a powerful attack into the cave sweeping him away.

As he dashed out of the cave and into the free area, Lugia attacked again but he was nimble enough to dodge it, he rolled and got on his feet and looked at Lugia once again, he didn't know why it was so aggressive but he needs Lugia to calm down.

He needs to either calm it down or suppress it before finding out what is happening, he knows that Lugia is not very aggressive in nature, they are quite calm and collected even in front of humans, they never got aggressive for no reason.

Lugia continued to attack and Julian continued to jump around, seeing he has no other choice to suppress it, Julian took out a Pokeball and sent out his pokemon.

Kyurem entered the open area and looked at Lugia, it had encountered Lugia before when it lived in Unova but that encounter was nothing special, it was just passing by and didn't confront Kyurem but this time in its eyes, Lugia is very aggressive in nature and looking for a fight.

Julian quickly put up a forcefield around the area to contain the destruction these two can cause, as soon as Julian's barrier was set up, Kyurem attacked with its own Ice Beam, Lugia also countered with an Ice Beam as well.

But Kyurem's is a lot stronger and colder in nature, under Julian it has grown more powerful, seeing its attack being pushed back, Lugia moved to the side and dodged the incoming Ice Beam, Kyurem's Ice Beam hit Julian's barrier and froze on the spot creating massive ice crystals on them.

As Lugia was distracted, Kyurem suddenly charged at it while using Dragon Claw, the concentrated Dragon energy around its claw caused Lugia's danger alarms to ring off.

Lugia quickly used Protect to block the incoming attack, Kyurem swung his massive glowing claw at the protective shield in front of Lugia to shatter it.

The impact of the Dragon Claw on the Protect was so powerful that it created a shockwave powerful enough to break Julian's barrier but Julian quickly reinforced it by putting another layer over the old one to contain the energy within.

Seeing that the battle is going to be more intense, Julian decided to reinforce it even further and put up another three layers over the old two.
