Julian and Yesh got up early in the morning and got ready to head out, since they are already across the moor, there is nothing to worry about, it will take them two to three days to reach Opelucid city on Julian's bike.
The journey was not that hard this time, when they camped down Julian would focus on training his pokemons for the upcoming battle, Yesh also joined him but he did his own training, he has learned everything that there was to learn from Julian so he made his own training regime.
Because it is the only way for a trainer to grow and develop, if they copy someone else they will never grow, Julian had told him this very early in his journey, at first Yesh thought that it was best to copy Julian's method as it seemed the most practical option but Julian warned him.
Yesh soon found out that Julian was right, he did copy Julian's method at first but he soon came to a halt because he couldn't do what Julian does, he then found out that its best for him to create his own which he can change and further develop and perfect it as he grows stronger.
He would ask to battle Julian and he lost every time but he was getting better, his pokemon were able to last long in the battle as well.
Three days passed and they finally arrived at Opelucid city, Julian and Yesh then went their own separate ways because they had different things to do, Julian didn't bother with what Yesh does in his own free time and neither does Yesh.
Yesh went into the city leaving Julian behind, Julian decided to quickly get a hotel room for himself and his girlfriends that will be coming in a few days, they said they will be here within a week and Julian is very eager to meet them.
After renting a very massive room in a grand hotel, he sent the address to all his girlfriends, he then decided to look around the city to see what is going on, when he destroyed the team Plasma headquarters near Icirrus city, the leader grunt said that Team Plasma is planning to do something in Opelucid city, he doesn't know what but he wants to find out what they were planning.
He did ruin their plan by destroying the headquarter and taking care of the chaos that they created in Icirrus City. Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #%!d(string=12793423306363205)/studding-the-final-opponent_%!d(string=49542734280705760) for visiting.
He spent some time to look around the city but he didn't find anything that was suspicious, he asked the locals if anything weird happened in the city but he got nothing from them, everything seems to be very calm here and people mostly gave the credit for this peacefulness to the gym leader Drayden.
Julian didn't think much about it and headed back to his hotel since he couldn't find anything related to Team Plasma.
He decided to go back and look into Drayden and learn a little about him and his team before he goes and challenges him for his last gym badge.
Once he got back into his room, he took out his laptop and searched for Drayden and how is he as a gym leader and how many trainers are able to go past through him.
He soon found what he is looking for, Drayden seems to have a lot of pokemon under him and since his gym is the last one to be challenged by all the trainers, he doesn't have to train new pokemons and make sure that they are equal to the challenger's pokemon level.
Some of his pokemons are Haxorus, Flygon, Druddigon, Altaria, Salamence, and Hydreigon, this line up is indeed very intimidating to trainers, all these are very powerful Dragon-type pokemons.
He noticed that not many trainers are also not able to defeat Drayden at all, 90% of trainers give up once they face off against Drayden, well it is to be expected, every year a million trainers decide to participate in a league but only more than a thousand trainers are eligible to enter the league, most of them can't get past the seventh gym and the eighth gym which belongs to Drayden is the final coffin to their League's dream.
Out of ten thousand that make through the seventh gym only a thousand of them are able to defeat Drayden and then get their eighth badge to participate in the Unova League.
Julian looked at Drayden's record and his very impressed, he has ten consecutive wins on his record right now, it looks like Drayden's page is constantly updated, the last person to defeat him seems to be a person wearing an eye patch.
When Julian read this he was surprised again, he could only think of one person with an eye patch, but it looks like Drayden held his own against this trainer and was not bullied badly by this trainer, even though his loss was still devastating and one of his pokemon seems to be hospitalized.
As he read through it he wondered who this trainer really is and from where did he come from, and why does his method seem so cruel.
Having no idea who this trainer is and how strong he really is, Julian got a little excited to battle this trainer and also teach him a lesson as well.
