Chapter 1005 - Seeing Familiar Faces
When Julian arrived at the stadium where the exhibition match is being held, he saw a familiar face and was happy, he wanted to meet this person for a while now but it looks like he doesn\'t need to wait any longer.
He approached the man and greeted him.
Julian "Professor Sycamore"
Julian called out.
Professor Sycamore who was talking to a stadium staff turned around and saw a young man in a green jacket walking towards him, Professor Sycamore carefully looked at the young man and realized that it is none other than Julian.
Sycamore "Mr. Julian, what are you doing here?"
Julian "I just came here to watch the exhibition battle, what about you?"
Sycamore "Me? I came here to observe the Champion Diantha use her Mega Evolution and document it for research"
Julian "Any particular reason why her?"
Julian asked.
Sycamore "Indeed, Diantha and her Gardevoir seem to have a very strong bond between them, and when she Mega Evolves her Gardevoir, its power goes off the charts, beyond any normal Mega Evolution that I have been studying so I wanted to see it through my own eyes and document it"
Sycamore said.
Julian "I see"
Julian nodded. He knew about this, the stronger the bond, the better the pokemon can handle the huge overflow of energy within them and the better they are at handling the overflow of energy, the stronger they are.
Sycamore "Indeed, there have only been a very few pokemon who can release such powerful energy, some of them being Garchomp who belongs to Champion Cynthia, and Metagross who belongs to Champion Steven.
Of course, there is you as well but I don\'t have any data on your pokemons and their Mega Evolution but from what I have seen, I believe that your pokemons Mega Evolution are also exceptional"
Sycamore said with a big smile on his face.
As they talked to each other, Julian heard a few more similar voices approaching them.
"Professor Sycamore"
Julian turned his head towards the direction of the sound and noticed Ash and his new friends rushing towards them.
Ash finally came to a stop right in front of Professor Sycamore and Julian with a big smile on his face, the new girl Serena also arrived right behind him followed by the brother-sister duo.
Ash "Professor Sycamore, are you also here to watch the exhibition battle?"
He asked.
Sycamore "Well actually I am here to document the Mega Evolution of Gardevoir that belongs to Champion Diantha in person"
Sycamore said.
Ash "Wait? Are you going to meet her in person, can we come as well?"
Ash asked as he realized that he could meet Diantha in person, even his new friends seem to be excited about the idea of meeting Diantha, especially the girl Serena who seems star-struck by the fact of meeting Diantha.
Well Julian couldn\'t blame them, Diantha is very famous, not only is she a great and powerful champion but also a massive movie star.
Sycamore "Sure why not. What about you Mr. Julian? Want to come with us?"
He asked Julian.
Ash and his friend soon realized that there was another person standing next to Professor Sycamore, they were so distracted by the fact of meeting Diantha that they forgot about him.
Ash "Wait? Julian, is that you?"
Ash asked surprised.
Julian "Ssshhh"
Julian put a finger over his mask and told Ash to keep quiet and not talk out loud as they are still surrounded by normal people.
Ash realized this and quickly shut his mouth, his friends were also shocked by realizing that this person is Julian, this is their second time meeting him and they are still feeling overwhelmed by him, how could they not, this person is known as the strongest trainer in the world.
Only Ash was immune to this.
Julian "Sure why not, I also have something to discuss with you in private"
Julian said.
Sycamore "What is it?"
He asked.
Julian "Not here, let\'s talk after the exhibition battle is over"
Sycamore "Fine, let\'s do that"
Sycamore agreed to Julian and soon took the group to the back door of the stadium.
They were about to get past through the security as Professor Sycamore had an access pass and Julian didn\'t need any as he has bought one of those expensive VIP tickets, Ash and his friends were allowed to enter because of Professor Sycamore as well.
One of the staff guided the group towards the room where Diantha is staying, once they get there, Diantha herself came out of her room and noticed the group, she noticed Professor Sycamore and greeted him.
Sycamore then introduced Ash and his friends to her and finally pointed at Julian.
Sycamore "I guess he doesn\'t need any introduction"
Sycamore said. Diantha got curious and looks at the person in the mask.
Julian removes his masks and smiles at her.
Julian "We meet again Miss Diantha"
He said while keeping the smile.
Diantha is shocked by seeing Julian in person and she tried her best to hide her excitement, she didn\'t want to lose her image in front of Sycamore, Ash, and his friends.
Diantha "Mr. Julian, yes, it finally nice to meet you again, Chole told me that you are in Kalos, too bad I was very busy to come and visit you"
She said and smiled back.
Julian "No need for you to come and visit me, you are a Champion and an actress, you are already very busy"
Julian said.
Diantha "Thank you for understanding"
She said and smiled.
