Julian didn't expect Team Plasma to be causing so much trouble here in Icirrus city, what he is more curious is about why they are targeting Icirrus city instead of other cities, this is not the biggest city nor a city that is known for the high pokemon population.

There is no reason for Team Plasma to be so active here unless they are planning something here or their headquarters is near this city or in this city itself, if that is really the case, Julian might try to find them and destroy the headquarters and don't give them any chance to cause more trouble in the future.

Julian "What about the police? aren't they able to handle it?"

"No, not at all, there are a lot of Team Plasma members in the city, they clearly outnumber and outmatch the officers, even their pokemons were snatched away"

The hotel worker said.

Julian "What about the gym leader? What is he doing about this matter?"

"Well the gym leader is trying his best to chase away these organizations but he is just a single man, he cannot take on the whole organization, last time he got surrounded by a bunch of elite Team Plasma grunts and was forced into a corner. Having no choice he had to back off"

He explained.

Julian "I see, you can go now"

Julian sent the hotel worker away and entered his room, with the knowledge of what is going on in the city, Julian decided to check it out and see what he can do, from what he heard from the hotel worker, the gym leader of Icirrus city couldn't handle the current problem.

If he continues to fail, he might call the league, if fact he might have already informed them about it and the league might be sending a member of the Elite Four to handle this situation.

But he still had doubts about the Elite Four being able to handle this situation, the number game is something one cannot overcome unless there are ridiculously powerful but the Elite Four or not on that level.

Even a Champion will have a hard time dealing with the number game, the league can also not afford a war and send out multiple agents because it might destroy the city if the two factions engage in a massive fight.

This will then cost the league even more money to rebuild the infrastructure of the city back to how it was before it got destroyed.

Julian put on a different pair of clothes after cleaning himself and headed out again, as he had seen before, the people in the city looked on edge from the constant threat of Team Plasma popping up and trying to steal their pokemons.

Julian kept an open eye for anything suspicious but he couldn't find anyone that looked suspicious, every person he saw just looked like a normal citizen, some worried about the city's current situation while others were indifferent about it.

Finding nothing suspicious, Julian decided to look around the city and enjoy his time here, he came across a pokemon fan club which is closed right now, Julian knows that this place would have been buzzing with people and pokemon if the city wasn't under the constant threat of Team Plasma.

He walked past the pokemon fan club and found a massage parlor for his pokemons, since they were on a such a lot trip, his pokemons deserve some rest and relaxation.

Luckily the massage parlor is open and taking customers, as Julian headed into the parlor, the workers who were lazing around were surprised to see a customer, these past few days, they have not gotten any customer because no one was willing to come here because of the fear of Team Plasma stealing their pokemons.

Even though no one was coming to their parlor, the owner of the parlor ordered them to keep working as he didn't want to suffer any loss, even if one customer comes, that customer is bringing in money, that was the ideology of the owner.

The workers were 100% sure that no one is going to come but they are surprised by seeing a customer, they looked at this customer who has his face covered, they could easily tell that this guy is not from their city and is a traveler.

'Poor guy! Looks like he doesn't know the current situation of the city'

The workers thought but they didn't say anything to Julian, since he is here, they might just charge him money because even they need it for their living.

"Welcome, how may I help you today"

A worker approached Julian with a smile on his face as if nothing is going on and everything is normal, Julian smiled underneath his mask and said nothing, he knew they are here to earn money and it's ok to be selfish for their own benefit.

Julian "I want the best treatment from my pokemons"

"I see, you have come to the right place, we are the best pokemon massage parlor in the city, you have nothing to worry about"

Julian "Good"

He said and brought out his pokemons, it was all his Unova pokemons, after training for weeks under Julian and going through hell training, they needed relief.

Seeing so many pokemons, the workers got excited because they realized that this person in front of them was a big customer and they are going to get paid a lot for the best service they provide.

The workers soon escorted Julian's pokemon into the massage room where they will be treated, Julian, on the other hand, waited in the waiting room and started to read the magazine that was placed on the table.

A little distance away from the massage parlor, few people in uniform were looking through binoculars into the massage parlor.

"Hehehe, an ignorant trainer, he is going to lose all this pokemons, they all seem really powerful as well"

They said and started to laugh.
