Prologue: A mechanism meant for revenge

(_): Private Thought

It was a wonderful day in the Alola region. Ash spent most of his time at the beach. He spent a little time with his new wife, Serena. They had just married the month before, and already Serena looked slightly rounder than usual.

"Serena! This is fun! Come on out here!" Ash yelled as he rode his surfboard across the waters of the Alola Region.

"I'd rather wait here than go into the water." Serena said, putting a hand over her stomach.

(Gee, it isn't easy being married.) Serena thought to herself.

Solisos, who now lived on Pokearth, had built his own house, complete with a garage for his mech, the Ares.

He walked out wearing a swimsuit colored gold with white and purple rings on them. His wife, Alexa, referred to as Alex, wore a one-piece swimsuit with blue and red flowers strewn across it. They both rode their surfboards while riding the sea-foam green waters.

"Cowabunga!" Solisos and Alexa yelled in sync as they surfed.

Clemont and Bonnie were digging in the sand, looking for scallops. May and Lao were building sandcastles.

Sam and Sabrina were at a fancy restaurant, eating fancy calamari. And Iris was trying to find a rare scallop pearl. Talk about rarity of the finest quality.

Little did they know the ultimate adventure was about to begin.

An adventure that would eventually decide the planet's fate.

-Meanwhile, in the ruins of Link's abandoned Time Dimension station, in a dark cave-

There was nothing alive in the place. Even the almost-organic Telethia-bot was dead. Computers were offline. Wires hung from the ceiling. Cloaking devices failed. Corpses were scattered near and far. Everything was dead.

But that didn't mean there wasn't a soul roaming.

A tall, dark purple, seven-eyed, six-armed ghost floated around, searching for something to possess. It floated to a nearby computer monitor, and it turned it on.

"...AHHHHH! W-what the... I'm a computer now? Well this is just great." the soul said. "Where is that traitor Lao..." The computer removed its wires from the wall and walked around, using the wires as legs and arms. It found the exit and came out.

"Well then. I, the great Link, have died and been reborn into a computer monitor. Talk about your daily twists. Now to gather more power..." he added as he started to glow white, and he surrounded himself with computers, surveillance equipment, and weapons alike while rising up and powering up the station.
