Since it was already night Julian decided to call it a day, with Cynthia by his side they went to sleep, things are going to get a little chaotic, his life is already chaotic and he was about to enter the underworld to chase out Cyrus out of it so he can make his move.

From what he heard from Cynthia, the Underworld is a powerhouse and he alone cannot take them on, he has powerful pokemons but they still have limitations, they cannot take on thousands of pokemon army single-handed, there is also the chances of hurting the innocents during these battle. ​​

If all of his first pokemons team up to take down the underworld, it might be possible but their powers could destroy anything in their way.

He cannot take chances, he has to be careful while doing this, he didn't talk about it much to her, the spies won't make a move for a while, so he has to wait, getting into the underworld in not easy, even though many people go to sell illegal stuff at the black market of the underworld, that is all they can do.

A normal person cannot find any information about anything that goes on in the underworld, they just come and buy/sell stuff that they need or have, the ones who need information have connections inside and Julian knows no one from inside, and the people in the underworld are not fools, they won't just help some random person who they just met just because he could give them money.

What is the use of money if they die soon after they get it, so people who had connections are very cautious about the people they meet and do business and since Julian has no connection he has to wait for these spies to be the bridge for him to get.

He went to sleep.

____________________

Next morning was the same as yesterdays, he got up, took a bath made breakfast for both him and Cynthia, once she woke up she ate up her breakfast and both decided to leave, both of their destinations is Sunnyshore city, while Cynthia has to discuss about their next move with the League, Julian had to challenge the Sunnyshore gym.

He didn't just challenge the gym because he wants to participate in the league competition, gyms were like polishing stones, he used these gyms to polish his pokemons battle instinct, gyms were always helpful, their main purpose was to guide young trainers to become better and stronger trainers for the future of their region, the ones who are gym leader now will not remain gym leaders forever, new and experienced trainers will take over them.

These gyms were a perfect way to increase a pokemon's battle instinct while they train and increase their power, some gyms always had limitations as the pokemon they have are too powerful for young trainers and the gym leader of the Sunny Shore gym is also the reason why it is always the last gym to get challenged.

The gym leader of the Sunnyshore gym, Volkner is the most powerful gym leader of the Sinnoh region, his pokemons are very close to the Elite-Four level.

Now Julian is about to enter the Underworld, his pokemons need to refine their battle instinct and Volkner is the perfect candidate for it, all of his Sinnoh pokemons have reached their final form.

Crystal had fallen into a long coma and didn't develop during that time, but after it absorbed the magical orb from the mysterious cave, it became very powerful, but it still being a child in heart, it is always looking for mischief.

Manaphy, Crystal's best friend is also the same, once Crystal went to its long sleep, Manaphy started to train really hard so it could protect its vulnerable best friends.

Garchomp has matured a lot, even though he has fun with his friends, when it comes to training there is no one as serious as he is, he does twice the training as others in the group, after being one-shot by Tyranitar even after evolving, Garchomp realized how much of a gap was really there between him and his powerful senior, Tyranitar, and knowing that even his senior the mighty Tyranitar is nothing compared to Julian's first batch of pokemon.

Garchomp has seen, Electivire's destructive lightning, Pidgeot's sharp and destructive winds, Gengar's control over his dimension and powers, Snorlax's pure raw strength that could destroy mountains and Infernape's flames that could burn anything that it touches, and there are still a lot of Julian's pokemon Garchomp has not seen who are as powerful as Electivire and Pidgeot.

Garchomp only had one dream, to stand on the top, become the most powerful Garchomp in existence.

Victini, the third person of the mischief trio along with Crystal and Manaphy, it has also not slacked off during the time, Crystal was in its deep sleep, along with Manaphy it trained a lot, Victini can now finally mega evolve, it became powerful enough to handle the energy from the Mega Stone that it received from Julian, it is also very close to learning its signature move 'V-create', the most powerful fire type move said to exist from ancient history.

Togekiss was just like other's training harder and harder to master the control over her energy, she has refined it several times to make it more potent and powerful, she has become a tank that could easily take on the strongest Special Attacks, she has improved a lot during this time, her control over her powers is near a breakthrough.

Rampardos has not been lacking behind either, he has been training to increase his speed and power the whole time, due to his body, he doesn't have high defense and he cannot improve it any further so he decided to be even better at what he is already good at, his insane Physical attacking power is already scary, now he wants to combine speed to it, he trained how to control his body while moving in high speed so that he doesn't make any mistake while battling.

Luxray has been training with his electrical powers, the things that Electivire thought him has helped him a lot, he even learned how to bend his lightning during its path so that his opponents can't dodge no matter where they go.

Lucario has been directly learning under Infernape, all the fighting styles that Julian has thought Infernape, he has passed it down to Lucario, Infernape is her teacher and their relationship has been developing like a master and disciple, Lucario has the utmost respect for him as she has learned a lot after she learned how to fight from Infernape, Julian polished her up by teaching her how to use weapons and what weapon is useful for what kind of scenarios, Lucario became a weapon master in her own way, learning and developing her own style as she learned to combine different styles of weapons into one.

Gliscor has not completely mastered how to use his wings to glide forever, he has mastered the ways of flying, he can even outrun the fastest fliers if the winds are on his side and if they are not, he can easily dodge them, it is safe to say that it's very hard to land a physical hit on Gliscor when he in on-air, but this doesn't mean he hasn't done any ground training, he has trained a lot, gaining control over his ground energy, being the last pokemon Julian caught in Sinnoh, he had it hardest then others to become powerful, he had a foundation but he had to ditch it and start new to perfect it and now he has proved himself and others that he is no pushover either.

These nine monsters are Julian's Sinnoh team, maybe his strongest team till now but they still have a long way to go before going face to face with their seniors.
