As soon as the Dusk Stone and Shiny Stone came in contact with their hands, the stones started to reach and the pokemon who were holding them started to glow.
The stones seem to be dissolving like a liquid in their hands and fusing into their body, their body started to glow brighter and brighter, the shine of the light lit up the whole area, Julian's other pokemon also noticed this change and gathered around Doublade and Floette.
Both Doublade and Floette started to change in size, Doublade's two blades started to fuse with each other and turn into one single big blade, two hands grow out from the top and a circular disk was formed which will act as his shield.
Floette also started to change and the flower she was holding disappeared and the size of her body started to increase by a lot, at first she was only 20 centimeters in height but now her body is growing continuously, it finally stops when she reaches the high of 1.2 meters.
Under the bright glowing light, her head looks massive but that is not the case, it is the flowers that cover her neck and head.
The light that was covering them soon faded away releasing the two pokemon inside revealing them for others to see.
Doublade has now evolved into Aegislash, he floated there with his magnificent new look, he waved around his new shield which will now make him a full-fledged tank with very high attack and defense, Doublade also finally has a visible eye over his blade which can move from left to right.
Floette evolved into Florges, she looked very beautiful and elegant, the white flower bush around her neck and head looked very beautiful and the flowery aroma around her made everyone feel very pleasant.
Both Aegislash and Florges looked very happy as they finally reached their final evolution, now they have reached their full potential Julian will be increasing the difficulty of their training.
Julian let them enjoy themselves for a few minutes before he went back to training them, both Aegislash and Florges were told to understand their newfound strength and power before Julian continues training them again.
Julian's older pokemon helped them understand how to do it and since both of them are very good, it didn't take them long to understand their powers and how to use them more efficiently.
Aegislash was of course the first one to master his understanding of his energy and went straight into training, Florges was not that behind in her progress as well and soon joined Aegislash in training.
The training went for a few days, once Julian thought that he was ready to take on Wulfric he ended the training that day and went back to his nice hotel and slept.
Tomorrow will be the day he will challenge Wulfric and win his eighth and final badge.

Somewhere else in Kalos, inside Team Flare headquarters, both Mable and Bryony crashed their bikes against the entrance of headquarters, this alerted the team flare and a few members rushed out and looked at what is happening, they noticed that two of their admins are down and injured.
They quickly put the two of them in a wheelchair and took them in, everyone could see that the two of them were injured, there were cuts and wounds on them, it was very clear that they were attacked.
They were taken to the medical room and treated, after an hour, once both of them were patched up Lysander walked in with Caroline and Xerosic.
The three of them looked at Mable and Bryony and frowned.
Lysander "What happened?"
Lysander asked.
Mable "Sir, we were attacked, it was an ambush, we were led to the ambush spot by the signal we got from our device, but what was waiting for us there was no Zygarde core but a trap"
Bryony "All our members were caught, we somehow made an escape by running away or we would have been killed or captured, we don't know what fate fell on our members"
She continued Mable's words.
Lysander's frown deepened as he heard this, Xerosic was also frowning while Caroline didn't have any expression on her face, she looked cold and professional like always.
Lysander "Do you know who it was?"
Mable "I don't know but that man was riding a Kyurem, he came out of nowhere and attacked us all, the very first attack from him destroyed half of our team"
Mable answered.
Lysander's frown turned into anger.
Lysander 'It's the same man with Kyurem again, it looks like Hunter J's men were lying to me, the Kyurem trainer must have captured one of the Zygarde core and used it to lure us out'
He thought and looked at Xerosic and Caroline but they didn't say anything.
Lysander 'But why is he targeting my organization, is he one of those justice warriors who fight quote quote bad guys?'
He wondered while looking at Mable and Bryony, he didn't doubt them at all because the injury they have is very real, what he didn't know was that they were self-inflicted by them, they attacked each other to come up with a story for their failure and only two of them returning back.
Lysander "Fine, you two rest, Xerosic, come with me, we need to discuss"
He said and walked out with Xerosic leaving Caroline with Mable and Bryony.
Caroline "You two did good, Master will be happy"
She said and walked away as well.
