This challenger who will be challenging the gym before Ash is Paul, Julian remembered this kid was pretty annoying.
He looked at him for a few seconds then walked to the receptionist, there is an old man with long hair standing there.
Julian "Can I watch the battle that is going to take place?"
Old Man "Sure, there isn't any limitation that stops anyone from watching pokemon battles"
He said.
Julian nodded and walked towards the gym area, Paul watched him walk towards the gym, he didn't know who this person is and why would he want to watch the gym battle but he didn't care.
Soon Ash arrived with Roark, the old man looked at Roark and welcomed him.
Old Man "You have a challenger and an extra audience as well"
Roark was surprised not because of a challenger but because they are going to have an extra audience, sometimes they do come but mostly they don't.
Nobody would want to miss a pokemon battle but trainers appear out of nowhere and challenge the gym leaders and no one will know about it.
Having an audience for a normal gym battle is rare.
Roark looked at Paul.
Roark "So you are the challenger?"
Paul "Yes"
Roark "Great, meet me on the battlefield"
He said and walked away, Paul soon walked towards the battlefield, Ash and his friends followed behind.
______________________
Julian is waiting for the trainers to arrive, he has taken a seat at the corner of the gym to get a full view of the whole battlefield.
He saw Roark walk in, Roark glanced at Julian and was surprised as his face is covered.
Paul also walked in and right behind him, the old man, Ash, and his friends also walked in.
Ash and his friend looked at Julian who is sitting on the corner, they didn't know it is Julian as his face is covered.
Julian didn't want to show his face because he doesn't want to distract the challengers when they are battling.
The old man walked towards the referee area and started the battle between Paul and Roark.
Roark sent his Geodude and Paul sent an Azumarill.
The battle began and Paul, of course, had the advantage but it soon changed, Geodude's Rollout got stronger and stronger with each turn and soon one-hit KOed Paul's Azumarill.
Paul didn't expect that. He called back his Azumarill and frowned.
Paul "Useless"
He said and put the Pokeball to the side.
Julian frowned when he heard him say so, it seemed like he is treating his pokemon as a thing and Julian didn't like it.
He took out another Pokeball and tossed it up, an Elekid came out and the battle once again began and was over within a minute, Elekid did a brick break and knocked out Geodude in one hit.
Roark then sent out his Onix and asked Paul if he wants to switch his pokemon but Paul stuck with it, soon his decision came and bit him as Roark commanded Onix to set up Stealth Rock, Elekid is in a very bad situation.
Onix used slam and got paralyzed as Elekid's Static ability kicked in and Onix got paralyzed, Paul then made a switch completely ignoring the Stealth Rock and sent out Chimchar.
Julian didn't think anything of this as he would do the same, no matter what happens that stealth rock would hit the next pokemon, instead of sacrificing his strongest pokemon he would send out another one so that his winning chance increases and it would also let his pokemon who is badly injured get some rest.
Chimchar got batted by a bunch of rocks and it is hurt, as Onix moves in for a Double Edge again, Paul commands Chimchar to use Dig, Chimchar uses Dig and throws of Onix's balance and it crash-lands, Dig is very effective and due to the paralyze still being in effect Onix stops moving again.
Chimchar uses a bunch of Digs one after the other and Onix faints as it cannot keep up with it.
Roark praises Paul for his strategies and then sends out his next pokemon, he tosses his Pokeball and a blue and gray colored Pokemon comes out, it's a Cranidos.
This is the pokemon Julian wanted.
As he expected it looks very good, and when it evolves it would be a monster.
The battle began again and this time it was more intense than before, Chimchar's Blaze kicked in and it became more powerful and got a hit on one of Cranidos's knee, then it got Zen Headbutted and knocked out.
Paul frowned again and called back Chimchar.
Paul "You are useless"
He said and put away Chimchar's Pokeball, seeing this Julian got annoyed, even though Paul is a good at Pokemon battle he is not a great trainer, he seems to not appreciate the effort his pokemon put in for his pokemon battle
The battle started again as Paul sent out his Elekid again, the Stealth Rock kicked in and hit it.
The battle went on as Elekid kept hitting the same knee again and again until the Cranidos was hurt badly and it couldn't move faster.
The battle ended with the last exchange, Elekid used Brick Break and defeated Cranidos, if the battle lasted any longer it would have been a draw.
Paul won and got his badge.
Julian looked at Ash and he seems to be very annoyed by Paul, he asked Paul to watch his battle.
Julian sighed.

Julian had to wait for a while to watch Ash's battle as the old man is treating Roark's pokemon back to full health.
Once they were back to their full strength the battle began.
Julian looked at Ash and frowned.
Julian 'He is too distracted, I don't think he will win this'
The battle began and Ash was put in a tough spot from the start, Roark sent his Onix and Ash went with Aipom but this round soon ended with Aipom getting bested, he then sent out Turtwig, it managed to hold up for a while against Onix but got defeated as well.
Next Ash sent Pikachu, Pikachu managed to take out Onix with a powerful Iron Tail, Roark then sent out his Geodude and the battle was intense, Pikachu somehow managed to survive and defeated Geodude, next Roark sent his Cranidos and the result was as Julian expected.
Cranidos won and defeated Pikachu.
Julian 'He was too focused on showing Paul the right way and completely ignored his battle, even though he has gotten better at training pokemon he still needs to develop his mind'
Seeing that it was over Jason got up and walked away, Roark and others saw Jason walk out, they didn't know who this person is, he came watched and walked away without saying anything.
They wondered who this person is.
Julian walked out of the gym and decided to visit the museum, he got on his bike and rode off.
He soon arrived in front of the museum to saw a commotion going on inside the museum, he heard people shouting and them running around the museum, he heard things breaking.
Julian "What's happening?"
He asked and walked into the museum, as he did he saw chaos, the whole Museum is in ruins and everything inside seems to be broken.
Julian "What the heck just happened here?"
He looked around and saw few scientist and security running around the museum, they seem to be trying to find someone or something.
Seeing the chaos Julian got dumbfounded, why would a museum be in such a state, he approached one of the scientists and asked him.
Julian "What is happening here?"
Scientist "The fossil pokemons that were revived today morning started a fight and now are running around the whole museum destroying everything"
He said and ran off again to try and find them.
Julian also started to walk around and tried to find the two pokemons, as he was looking around he heard from one of the security that both the pokemons escaped from the museum, Julian quickly left the museum and started to look around for any clue that he could find to trace down any one of them and he got lucky, he found footprints near the museum and from the looks of it, this pokemon is walking on two legs.
Julian knew he had to find this one, he followed the footprint which led him to an abandoned mining site, when he reached the mining site he saw battle marks everywhere.
Julian 'This one looks very aggressive, I have to bring it down if it tries to attack'
He though and carefully followed the battle marks and he finally found it.
He saw a Cranidos using Iron Head and smash into a Diglett and caused it to faint, he then turned around and looked at Julian, he rubbed his right leg on the ground twice and pointed its head towards Julian and charged at him.
Julian 'This one is very aggressive, I have to bring it down and catch it'
He moved to the side and let Cranidos pass him, he then tossed a Pokeball up in the air and Gible came out and hoped twice and looked around, it then looked at the angry Cranidos and tilted his body to the side, looking confused.
Julian "Gible this will be our first battle together"
Gible looked at Julian and nodded excitedly, he looked at Cranidos and beckoned at him.
Seeing Gible's guts Julian smiled awkwardly.
Gible seems to fear nothing.
The Cranidos got angry and charged towards Gible using Iron Head once again.
Julian "Gible, use Dig"
Gible used Dig and dug into the ground and dodged the reckless Iron Head from Cranidos, Cranidos got angrier and looked around, not able to find Gible, Cranidos turned towards Julian and charged at him again.
Julian "Gible, now bite his leg"
Gible suddenly came out of the ground, right below Cranidos and bit down on Cranidos's leg, Cranidos lots his balance and fell on the ground.
Julian "Now slam"
Gible came out of the ground whole and swung Cranidos and slammed him on the ground again.
Julian "Now Dragon Claw"
Gible went for the finish and hit Cranidos and sent it rolling on the ground.
Cranidos fainted.
Julian took out an empty Pokeball and tossed it towards the Cranidos, the Pokeball made the contact and captured the Cranidos inside, he carefully waited for a while, the ball shook for quite a long time but it finally stopped moving after giving off a beep sound.
The capture is successful, Julian caught himself a Cranidos.
Now he has to talk to the people in the museum and ask them Cranidos's ownership, even though he caught it Cranidos is still the property of the Museum.
He lifted the ball from the ground and looked at Gible.
Julian "You did great on your first battle"
Gible happily hopped around after hearing Julian.
Julian smiled seeing how happy Gible is for his first victory.
