Julian watched as Dawn tried to get out of her situation, the Ariados surrounded Dawn and Piplup and blocked off their exit, they then started to get closer to Dawn and Piplup.

After a quick-thinking Dawn distracts the Ariadoses with some pokemon food and makes Piplup attack the webs and make an exit for themselves. ​​

Piplup shot some Bubble Beam and destroyed the webs and both of them tried to escape but some Ariadoses caught Dawn's legs with their web strings and tried to drag her back.

Dawn "Piplup, run away"

The Ariadoses then shot Pin Missiles at Dawn, Piplup got in front of her and suddenly used Bide, it took all the attacks and fired it back at the Ariadoses.

The Ariadoses were sent flying after being hit by that Bide.

Julian 'Looks like I didn't have to interfere'

Julian thought and walked away.

He sat on his bike and rode towards Sandgem town.

When he arrived outside Professor Rowan's lab he saw the windows were shattered.

Julian "What happened here?"

Julian said and got off his bike, he then saw a Staraptor bring in a Chimchar into the lab.

Julian 'These starter pokemons must have caused some trouble around here'

He thought and walked in, as he did he got noticed by the people working there and they got stunned seeing him, they thought as if they are dreaming.

Professor Rowan is also there, so when he saw Julian enter he walked towards him.

Rowan "Mr. Julian welcome to Sinnoh, I hope you had a pleasant trip"

Julian "I did, hope you are doing fine as well"

Rowan "No need to worry I am fine, come in we can talk further afterward"

Julian nodded and followed Rowan inside the lab, this lab is very different from Professor Oak's and Professor Birch's lab, all of them do research on different fields.

Julian looked around and soon saw the two starters of the Sinnoh Pokemon, the Chimchar who he saw before and a Turtwig which is busy eating some pokemon food.

Julian "These two seems to be very young and well-groomed"

He said and approached the two pokemons.

The assistant who was taking care of them got flattered.

Assistant "Yes, I have to take care of them all day long, this Chimchar is a naughtiest one of the three"

Julian nodded and bent down to the pokemon's height.

He brought out his Infernape as it would be the first time he will see someone of his species, Infernape came out and looked at the little Chimchar in front of him.

Chimchar stared at Infernape in awe as his blue flames mesmerized it.

Julian "I can't believe you grew up so fast, you were just as tiny as this guy right here when I first saw you"

Julian said and smiled at Infernape, Infernape nodded and looked at Chimchar.

Chimchar seems to be very excited seeing Infernape as it wished to grow up and become an Infernape one day as well.

Rowan looked at Infernape in admiration.

Rowan "Mr. Julian your Infernape is the most magnificent Infernape I have ever seen, truly deserving the title as one of the strongest pokemon, his blue flames indicate that his control over his element is also at its peak"

Julian "Thank you, Infernape has worked hard to reach where he is right now and I am very proud of him"

Rowan nodded, he now had more respect for Julian as he could tell Julian cared a lot for his pokemons.

Julian saw that there is one missing starter, Piplup.

Julian "Did a trainer already choose Piplup as their starter?"

Assistant "No, Piplup and Chimchar started to fight and they ran away from the lab, luckily Staraptor brought back Chimchar, the new trainer is still out there looking for Piplup"

Julian "I see"

Julian 'Dawn has already met with Piplup so they should be back soon'

As he thought this, Dawn ran in with Piplup in her hand.

Dawn "I am back"

She walked in and saw Professor Rowan and his assistant and another young man wearing a black coat.

As she saw this man she got shocked.

Dawn "I saw you on TV"

She exclaimed and pointed her finger at Julian.

Rowan "Ahem, Dawn its rude to point finger at someone"

Dawn got embarrassed and put down her hand.

Dawn "You are Sir Julian, I saw your battle in Ever Grande Conference and also your exhibition battle with the Champion of Sinnoh as well, I love your Milotic and Gardevoir they both are such elegant and beautiful pokemons"

Dawn doesn't seem to stop talking, Julian smiled awkwardly seeing this.

Rowan "Ahem, Dawn you have found the third pokemon now its time to choose your starter"

Dawn "YES"

She gets excited and puts down Piplup on the table.

Rowan "Now, choose your first pokemon"

Dawn "I choose Piplup"

She chose her first pokemon, the assistant soon documented this and registered Dawn as a new trainer.

She soon left with her Piplup to start her journey.

Julian remembered the personal envelope Professor Oak gave him to pass it to Professor Rowan, he took out the envelope and gave it to Professor Rowan.

Julian "Here, Professor Oak told me to pass it to you"

Rowan "I was waiting for this, Samual said you would arrive the day before yesterday, I thought you weren't coming"

Julian "The ship had to make a detour to evade the storm"

Rowan "I understand, you should take a rest, for now, Assistant escort Mr. Julian to the guest room"

Assistant "Yes Professor"

The Assistant then escorted Julian to his room, now that he is all alone he lies down on the bed and sighed.

Julian "I already caught a pokemon in Sinnoh and it is a mythical one"

He sighed and closed his eyes.

Julian 'What Sinnoh has for me I wonder'.
