Chapter 906: Chapter 1123: Time Traveler?
Chapter 906: Chapter 1123: Time Traveler?
The next day, news around the world was filled with reports about Julian capturing the First-class Legendary Deoxys—and even giving one away.
Because the exact strength of the unconscious Deoxys was unknown, many people initially speculated that the sleeping one was also a First-class Legendary, based on the strength of the other one.
However, this speculation was quickly debunked by various experts.
The main reason was the Psychic Crystal.
The item was considered a World-class treasure—extremely rare and valuable. But even so, it likely wouldn't be enough to heal the injuries of a First-class Legendary.
Therefore, the unconscious Deoxys was most likely not a First-class Legendary, but rather a Champion.
Moreover, Julian had also stated that the unconscious Deoxys would become Jade's guardian Pokémon. If it were a First-class Legendary, then Julian would essentially be harming Jade.
After all, commanding a First-class Legendary—or even having one perform tasks for you—would consume the trainer's lifespan.
From these two points, it was clear that the unconscious Deoxys was definitely a Champion-level Pokémon.
And that those experts had indeed guessed correctly.
But what difference did that make? It still couldn't overshadow the fact that Julian had obtained another First-class Legendary.
High-ranking officials from various countries just couldn't understand why all the good things kept landing in Julian's lap.
The mysterious Black and White Dragons were already hard enough to explain.
And now, when Deoxys required a Psychic Crystal to heal—somehow no one else in the world had one, yet Julian did.
And not only did he have one, but he hadn't used it for himself.
His Metagross had Psychic-typing, and his Slowking also had Psychic-typing. So with such an important treasure in hand, why hadn't he used it?
Yet the moment Deoxys needed it, he conveniently pulled it out.
Seriously… the coincidence was ridiculous.
Some people even began wondering if Julian had seen the future and prepared in advance.
Others suspected he might actually be someone who had traveled back from the future.

> "Honestly… the timing really is suspicious."
> "Right? Do you think Champion Walker might actually be able to see the future?"
> "I'm more convinced he's a time traveler."
> "Like… a soul transmigrator?"
> "Stop guessing. It's probably just a coincidence."
> "If Champion Walker could really see the future, why is he still single? Why not go find his future wife?"
> "Maybe… Champion Walker was actually a hundred year old virgin!"
> "I've taken a screenshot. I'm posting it right now—just wait for Champion Walker's lawyer's letter."

Looking at the online comments, Julian broke out in a cold sweat.
Things like seeing the future or traveling back from the future, although not entirely correct, were somewhat close to the truth.
After all, he was a transmigrator, and the kind with a System.
As for why people could believe someone might see the future or travel through time—well, that was because of Pokémon.
These creatures were already incredibly mysterious, especially the strongest among the First-class Legendaries, each of whom possessed extraordinary powers.
Take Dialga, for instance. It was revered as the god of time, capable of freely traveling between the past and future, accelerating, slowing, or even stopping time.
With such time-controlling powers already a reality, it wasn't entirely baseless for people to speculate that Julian could see the future or had traveled from the future.
But that didn't matter.
As long as he didn't say anything, all they could do was keep guessing.
When Julian scrolled further down the comments, though, he got a bit annoyed.
To the comment suggesting he would remain single forever, he replied:
"You're the one who's virgin. Your whole family is virgin."
That comment was instantly pinned to the top and received over 50 million likes.
"…I should scroll through TikTok instead."
Julian decided to change his entertainment method before the internet drove him crazy.
But the moment he opened the app, the first thing he heard was:
"I've caught a Caterpie!"
Julian's face darkened as he looked at the video. Wasn't this guy copying his tone and pose?
"Tch, not even close."
Muttering under his breath, he swiped to the next video.
"I've caught a Magikarp!"
Another swipe.
"I've caught a Charizard!"
And another.
"I've caught a hamburger!"
And then—
"I've caught a foot-massage shop girl!"
'…What the hell.'
Not only were they copying him, but they were also outdoing him.
Julian felt a throbbing pain in his temples and instantly lost interest in scrolling through TikTok. All the videos were just imitations or exaggerated parodies of him, completely boring.
"Your human society is really interesting."
Beside him, Deoxys was holding a phone, browsing information about the world.
Its tentacle-like appendages were incredibly dexterous, and its learning ability was also astonishing.
In less than half a day, it had already gained a rough understanding of the human society—
And of Julian himself.
Information about Julian could easily be found with a simple search.
"No wonder I sensed multiple powerful auras on you. So you've been in contact with several First-class Legendaries."
Deoxys's somewhat amazed voice echoed in his mind.
"And this guy is also a First-class Legendary."
One of its tentacle-like arms pointed toward Jirachi, who was currently sipping milk tea. Its tone sounded a bit strange.
Being grouped together with this guy as a First-class Legendary… somehow felt like it had lowered its own status.
"What are you looking at? I'm stronger than you. I'm level 102, and you're only level 101."
Sensing the disdainful gaze, Jirachi immediately fired back.
Where did its courage come from? Naturally, it believed that since its level was higher, its strength must be greater, hence the boldness.
It never once considered whether it was actually built for combat or what its role was.
After all, it was literally a support-type First-class Legendary.
If it came down to a real fight, Deoxys wouldn't even need to switch forms; it could easily pin Jirachi to the ground and beat it into the dirt.
Originally, Jirachi had also been level 101.
But because Julian constantly fed it Pokéblocks along with all the junk food it ate, its level had quietly risen by one.
"I'll catch up to you."
Hearing Jirachi brag about being at a higher level, Deoxys felt a bit frustrated.
Unfortunately, it was a fact and it couldn't really argue.
And it certainly couldn't just beat Jirachi up. After all, they were now partners.
Besides… if it did, Jirachi would probably cry, and then it would have to console it.
"Dream on! I won't let you catch up. From now on, I'll eat Pokéblocks everyday," Jirachi declared confidently.
What did it mean by everyday?
Because when it ate Pokéblocks, it would get full immediately—and then it wouldn't be able to eat fries, fried chicken, milk tea, and other junk food.
So in reality, Jirachi only ate Pokéblocks once every few days—and usually only because Julian forced it to.
Otherwise, after all this time, it wouldn't have only gone up a single level.
"You better stick to eating more fried chicken. Pokéblocks are now once every five days," Julian said.
He had never expected Jirachi to fight anyway.
So what was the point of raising its level?
Besides, Pokéblocks still cost points—even though they were now half price.
Saving points wherever possible was always a good idea, and Jirachi just happened to be the perfect place to start saving.
