Chapter 455 - Choosing A Team (2/2)

Since Volkner has already battled Ash, his pokemons would be weak and not in great condition.

Volkner ”I would prefer for you to come tomorrow, my pokemons need rest”

Volkner said and apologized.

He was not used to trainers challenging him one after the other so he asked Julian to come tomorrow, with his reputation, not man trainers came to challenge him, most of them would give up in the middle when challenging the gyms.

The ones who challenged him were ace trainers who understood pokemon battles and these types of trainers were very little.

This can be proven by the number of people that participate in the pokemon league, in a huge region like Sinnoh only a few hundred trainers are finally qualified to participate in the league out of the thousands that started their journey, some give up in the middle of their journey and some find other interests like pokemon contests, becoming pokemon doctors, breeders and any other occupation that is related to pokemons.

Julian decided to come tomorrow as he understood Volkner, trainers like Volkner are young so they don't have extra pokemons they could use during gym challenges, any trainers who want to challenge him right after he had a battle will have to wait.

Julian ”I will come tomorrow again, I hope I can get a battle I am looking for”

Julian said and left without looking back.

Volkner ”What does he mean by that, but he sounds very confident, Ash was a strong opponent and my pokemons are in bad condition right now or I would have allowed him to battle me, looks like I have to wait as well”

He said and looked at Julian who just walked out of his gym.

Volkner ”I have a feeling that tomorrow's battle will be a big one, I have to prepare a strong team”

He said and walked away as well, for some reason he felt pressured in front of Julian, this feeling he hasn't felt for ages had finally come back and he wanted to see how strong this man really is.

Julian went to the nearest pokemon park and called out his pokemons since he is going to have them battle tomorrow they should warm-up.

Julian ”All of you, have a mock battle with your partners and limit yourself, this is public property”

Julian said and took a seat on a bench nearby and watched him pokemon battle each other, they didn't use any powerful moves in their exchange.

Julian 'Who should I use tomorrow?'

He thought and racked up his brain, the most experienced fighter in his team is his Garchomp followed by Victini, Manaphy, and Crystal, Crystal being forth because it is busy being mischievous and attacking itself to Julian every second of the day.

Julian 'I think Togekiss, Luxray, and Gliscor will do, they need the most experienced, this battle will do, once this is done I will have some extra time to polish them as well'

He thought and nodded his head in satisfaction.
