Journey Towards Greatness

Julian's next destination Hearthome city is one of the biggest cities in Sinnoh and home to many tourist attraction, its main attraction is a contest hall but the contest that is held there is not a normal one but an extended version, in this contest pokemons, are based purely on their looks and performance, they don't do battles in this contest like other contest where battle is done to decide.

There are other things in Hearthome city as well such as a pokemon spa. ​​

Julian knew he needs to give all his pokemon a good time to enjoy themselves so a spa treatment.

There are other things in Hearthome city that Julian wants to explore, but before that, he needs to get out of Eterna City.

The following day he left for Hearthome city, but before he can reach Hearthome city he has to go through Celestic town, he has read that this town is the oldest in Sinnoh, it has been in Sinnoh from the very beginning.

Knowing that this is an ancient town Julian is interested in checking it out, he might find some ruins there.

During his travel, he would train and play with his pokemons and bond with them as it is essential and during his free time he will speak with Chloe and Daisy who seems to be very busy with their won work in Kalos.

Chloe is going through every type of training an upcoming actress has to go, luckily Julian's Flygon is with her and he doesn't need to worry about her and she also has her Salamence.

Daisy is also doing her training and honing her skills, luckily she has Gardevoir with her as she is one of Julian's strongest pokemons he has ever trained.

His small pokemons are getting along with his older pokemons so Julian thinks its time for them to meet his other pokemons as well but he has to reach Hearthome city to call them all back.

After days of camping and riding, he finally reached the outskirts of Celestic town, as he was about to enter he saw the huge gate of the town, it looked ancient and there seem to be carvings all over it, at first glance it really looks like an ancient town.

He soon enters the town and like any other normal town, people are busy doing their things, seeing a trainer every day passing through their town is normal as many trainers do this every day.

This is also the home town of the Champion Cynthia so many of her fans come here and with that, they check out the ancient ruins of this town.

Julian decided to walk on his feet from here and put his bike away.

The town is peaceful and Julian liked it, Crystal seems to have woken up and popped out its head and looked around the green village, it got excited seeing new scenery and came out of Julian's pocket to look around.

Julian just let Crystal explore, Crystal flew around the place looking at flowers and dew of water on the leaves.

"Wow, what pokemon is that?"

Suddenly Julian heard a voice from behind, he turned around and saw a small girl with blond hair and grey eyes, she seems to be 5 or 6 years old, she is wearing a blue dress. She is looking at Crystal with eyes filled with curiosity.

Crystal came back to Julian and went into his pocket once again.

"Mister, is that your pokemons?"

The small girl asked and looked at Julian with curiosity.

Julian removed his mask and squatted down to her level and nodded.

Julian "Yes, do you want to meet it, its name is Crystal"

Julian said and called out Crystal, Crystal popped out its head and looked at the little girl.

"Wow such a pretty name, hi Crystal my name is Cyndee"

Cyndee waved her hand at Crystal, Crystal also did the same, Cyndee looked at Crystal's red crystal with sparkling eyes.

Cyndee "Is that an accessory Crystal wears Mister?"

She asked Julian as she pointed at the red crystal on Crystal's head.

Julian "No that is part of Crystal's body"

Cyndee"Wow, sooo cool, what pokemon is Crystal mister?"

Julian "Crystal is a very rare pokemon, so no one knows what pokemon Crystal is"

Cyndee "Wow, so you are taking care of Crystal?"

Julian "Yes, I am its trainer, I have been taking care of Crystal from the time it was just an egg"

Cyndee "Wow, I also raised a pokemon when it was just an egg"

Cyndee said and smiled as she tried to poke Crystal's nose but Crystal keeps dodging it.

Julian "That's great, you will surely become a great pokemon trainer"

Cyndee "Yes, I will become strong just like my sister"

Julian smiled and nodded.

Cyndee "By the way what is your name, Mister?"

Julian "My name is Julian"

Cyndee "Mister Julian can I play with Crystal a little more, my house is just here"

She said and pointed at a medium-sized house across the road.

Cyndee "There is also the pokemon I helped my grandma to hatch, it's my friend, can you please come with me"

Julian "Ok you can play with Crystal but only for a little time, I have other things to do"

Cyndee "Yaaaa, Crystal let's go I will introduce you to my other friend"

Cyndee said and ran towards her house and Crystal followed behind her.

Julian also joined them, he sat beside and watched as Cyndee brought out a small pokemon with her, it is a Togepi.

Julian is surprised, Togepi are very rare pokemons, they are very rare even in the wild, he looked carefully at Togepi and realized that it is a young one.

Julian "A Togepi, is this the pokemon you helped your grandma to hatch?"

Cyndee "Yes, this is my friend Togepi, I and grandma stayed with it day and night to take care of it"

She said and started to play with the two.

He sat on the side and watched them, Togepi would occasionally look at him and try to approach his with its small legs but would get pulled back into the play by Crystal and Cyndee.
