Including Milotic and Kartana, Julian now had eight Champion-level Pokémon, and among them, four possessed Gold-grade Potential.

His strength had skyrocketed in just over ten minutes.

Out of the three Rare Candies, he had used two, and he didn't plan to use the last one for now.

Since none of his main team Pokémon were at the peak of Pseudo-Champion tier, he would give the last Rare Candy to whichever Pokémon reached that stage next.

When it came to breaking through bottlenecks, this thing was even more effective than treasures.

"You two go to the battlefield and have a match. It'll help you get a handle on the energy inside you," Julian said to Kartana and Milotic.

Having just reached the Champion tier, the energy surging through their bodies wasn't something they could control immediately. A battle would help them get accustomed to that power.

Both Pokémon nodded and made their way toward the battlefield.

"Metagross, keep an eye on them," Julian added.

It wasn't that he was worried about them getting into a heated fight—rather, he feared that Kartana, being the battle maniac it was, might lose control and seriously injure Milotic. So Julian needed Metagross to supervise.

In terms of strength, even though both were at the early-stage Champion-level, Kartana's power undoubtedly surpassed Milotic's.

"Meta~"

Metagross nodded and followed the two Pokémon toward the battlefield.

Kartana glanced at Metagross with a measuring look.

"Meta?"

Metagross: "You want to fight me?"

In its heart, Kartana truly did want to have a match with Metagross. But it also knew it definitely wasn't Metagross's opponent. It had just broken through to the Champion-level, and was still riding the high on its success. So it would be a shame to get beaten into self-doubt by Metagross—that would be really embarrassing.

At that thought, Kartana shook its head.

Although it loved challenging the strong, if it was the kind of opponent it definitely couldn't defeat, then forget it. It didn't enjoy getting beaten up—better to bully weaker ones instead.

It looked at Milotic, thinking to itself that it would generously bestow upon it "three cuts and six holes."

"Milo!"

Milotic: "What are you looking at? Looking down on me? I'll crush you later!"

Don't be fooled by Milotic's usual gentle and delicate appearance, always acting like a frail maiden. Ever since it had officially become Julian's Pokémon, its confidence had been steadily rising.

It couldn't be helped—its trainer was just too amazing. Improving strength was as easy as eating and drinking, and now it had already become a Champion.

And this show-off kept ignoring its charm every time—this time, it was going to take back its dignity.

Milotic's charm had already reached the level of affecting both males and females alike. However, for genderless Pokémon, its charm wasn't very effective.

After all, genderless Pokémon didn't have the concept of male or female, so naturally they had no desires or instincts like reproduction, making them highly resistant to charm-based moves.

The battle quickly began. With Metagross watching over them, Julian didn't pay much attention.

Instead, he was busy placating a certain big dog.

"Arf!"

Arcanine: "Master, you're playing favorites!"

When Julian had used the Golden Legend on Lucario, it had only broken Lucario's innate talent shackles, so it hadn't caused much of a commotion.

But when Kartana and Milotic broke through to the Champion-level just now, although Metagross had blocked most of the fluctuations, there was still noticeable movement within a small area.

Naturally, his other Pokémon had sensed it.

Two of their companions breaking through to the Champion-level at once—it must have been because their Trainer had given them some good stuff.

And Arcanine was the first to jump out and protest.

Steelix and Melmetal also stood nearby, looking at Julian with resentful expressions.

No matter who he gave the treasure to—why did it have to be Kartana? They'd just had a fight with that show-off recently—two against one, and of course, they'd won.

But now that show-off had become a Champion. Forget two against one; even if Kartana gave them a handicap, the two of them together wouldn't stand a chance.

Just thinking about how that show-off was going to be even more insufferable from now on made Steelix and Melmetal feel a deep, shared sense of despair.

It would've been fine if it had been any other Pokémon. So why did it have to be that particular show-off?

"You're not even a peak Pseudo-Champion yet," Julian said.

"Think about it—if you were at the peak of Pseudo-Champion tier, how could I possibly not give you the Rare Candy? If you and Kartana had both been peak Pseudo-Champions, then it definitely would've been second in line behind you."

Julian comforted the big dog, who was genuinely upset—its ears were drooping and everything.

But Julian was experienced in comforting it. After just a few words, its ears perked right up, and its tail started wagging behind it like a little electric fan.

Sure enough, in its Trainer's heart, it was still the most favored.

Arcanine was overjoyed. Its big tongue kept licking Julian's face, immediately soaking it. Julian had long since gotten used to this. He wiped his face with his sleeve in a practiced, efficient motion.

Seeing that the other Pokémon were also looking at him with eager, hopeful eyes, Julian immediately transformed into a master of making promises:

"Whoever reaches peak Pseudo-Champion first gets the next Champion spot!"

Then he secretly sent a telepathic message to Tyranitar.

"You better eat like crazy during this time. Don't forget your wife is still waiting for you in the Primal Secret Realm."

In fact, Julian had already decided who the third Rare Candy would go to—it was naturally for the level 89 Tyranitar. After consuming the Stone Marrow, its ability to absorb treasures was dozens of times stronger than other Pokémon.

That was how it had managed to catch up from behind.

Besides, this guy still had a romantic debt to settle. Julian hadn't forgotten about that female Tyranitar in the secret realm who had given all of her treasures to his Tyranitar.

Tyranitar: 'Oh yeah… I still have a wife waiting for me in the Primal Secret Realm.'

Seeing the sudden look of realization on Tyranitar's face, Julian's expression darkened.

Damn… had this idiot almost forgotten he had a wife in the secret realm? Could it be that he actually had a scumbag Pokémon under him?
