Journey Towards Greatness

Julian and Yesh stayed in the resort for two days and took a long rest before continuing their journey again, thanks to all the things that were available in the resort they were able to rest up properly and get rid of all their fatigue.

Another long ride began on Julian's bike towards Nimbasa city, the desert sands were harsh sometimes as sand storms came out of nowhere and caught them by surprise but they got through it, after three days of travel they finally reached the borders of the desert where the sand was less and both of them could see the massive city of Nimbasa in front of them. ​​

Julian and Yesh who are covered in desert sand looked in a very bad state, if they had entered the city on foot they would get many stares from people of the city as the people who live there are richer than the most average families in Unova.

Julian drove directly to a hotel and booked a room for him and another one for Yesh, after getting in his room he did the basic thing and that is to clean himself and his pokemon, a desert ride can be very dirty.

After everything was done Julian took a seat on the couch and decided to look into Nimbasa city and what he can do here, what he should do first before challenging the pokemon gym here.

As he was going through all the articles related to Nimbasa city, he found a link to another newsletter about the teleportation device, he then remembered that Kukui said that he will be in Nimbasa city and continue to further better the teleportation machine that he and his team built, he also read that the first Teleportation device will be installed here in Nimbasa city in Unova and one in Kalos.

Making it so that teleportation between two regions can be done within a few seconds, hearing this Julian got a little excited, if that is the case, he can go and meet Daisy and Chloe whenever he wants, if they built one in Sinnoh, he will be able to visit Cynthia as well.

And it looks like this project is being held in a lab near Rondez-View Ferris Wheel, Julian looked into this and see where this Ferris Wheel is located, he thought of giving a quick visit to his friend Kukui and see what he is up to.

As he looked into the Ferris wheel location he realized that this Ferris wheel was only for couples.

Julian "That's discriminating, what about those poor people who have no boyfriend and girlfriend, even they would want to look at the view of Nimbasa city from the top, also what about people who have more than one boyfriend and girlfriend, where will they sit?"

He said cursing at the rules of the Ferris Wheel, he then looked into other things as well.

Like the Battle Institute, a institute for elite pokemon trainers, in this institute, strong trainers can have a mock battle against each other to improve their skills, after reading this, Julian decided that he will give this a go as well, it will be the best way for his pokemons to get ready for their upcoming pokemon gym challenge.

The battle institute has very strict rules as well, mature trainers who have just began their journey cannot participate in any kind of mock battles, it was exclusive to the elites who have been in multiple official league battles and have entered the top 32 in the league from any region.

Julian once saw a battle Institute in Hoenn but he didn't give it a shot, now he is thinking about it as it will help his pokemons hone their battle instincts more as they will be facing off against an experienced fighter who has won a lot of battle in their careers.

There is also a thing called the Gear Station which Julian couldn't understand what it was meant for, it seems to be a subway but there is more to it than just being a normal subway, then there is the movie industry and a musical theater which is massive.

Many concerts and operas are held here and people from all around the come to check out their favorite star, sing, and dance here.

After figuring out all the tourist spots, Julian looked into the Nimbasa gym, his primary goal, and see how good the gym leader of this gym really is.

The Nimbasa city gym is an electric type gym so using Drilbur will make sense, the gym leader of this gym is a young woman named Elesa, she is known for being very hard on her challengers and most of them fail in defeating her the first time.

Well Julian expected no less from her because she is the court gym that most trainers challenge and it is her duty to show the trainers that things will be much harder from here on, her team is made of Emolga the Electric/Flying-type pokemon, a very good pokemon typing and many trainers would want to have a pokemon like this in their team, with only two weaknesses, five resistance, and one immunity but if it has the Ability Motordrive, it will have two immunity.

Emolga is a pokemon to watch out for, luckily for her challengers, Emolga is not good at defense and one good hit can end it all, her next pokemon is Eelektrik, a pure Electric-type, and a second stage evolution, nothing stands out much about this pokemon but it is a well-balanced pokemon with all of its stats being better than average except its speed.

And her ace seems to be a Zebstrika, a very fast pokemon with very good attack power, this will be the most troublesome as Julian's pokemon are not fast and he needs to find another way to take this one down.

After looking through everything, he put his phone aside and took a rest, clearing his mind from all worldly matters.
