nightelf37 takes a deep breath.

Aang: What's this you're making?

nightelf37: Why, it's a sign that I'm finally over my existential crisis.

Aang: Existential crisis of what?

nightelf37: Well, you see, there are a number of 'Mon' series, where humans (usually children) have 'monsters' by their side and battle with them. Among such series, Pocket Monsters, Pokémon for short, is the most well-known of them all. And there are 'purists' who look up to these and treat all others, like Monster Rancher and Digimon (Digital Monsters), as taboo and such.

Aang: And?

nightelf37: I was one of those purists. However, over time, the opening theme of Digimon Adventure got me back to them slowly, although I tried to distract myself from Pokémon as a result. Evetually, I got over that and…well…here you are.

Aang: What is this?

nightelf37: Like I said before, it's the sign that I'm finally over my existential crisis. Now, let's get this started. Take note that this 'opening' won't have any connection to any of my other stories. It may also pretty much suck and doesn't have a story. This is just for fun and as a sign that…well…let's just get this over with. Also, this is my first one-shot.

Now Playing: Butter-Fly - Kouji Wada

{view of daybreak sky; suddenly, Palkia coes out of nowhere and opens a colorful portal; Ash (in Diamond and Pearl outfit) is the first to get sucked in as he spins as he goes, followed by Misty (in her Advanced Generation outfit), Gary (in his Diamond and Pearl outfit), Brock (in his Diamond and Pearl outfit), May (in her Emerald outfit), Paul, and Dawn; portal then shines as it reveals another blue sky; the title Pokémon Adventure appears}

Ima sugu kimi ni ai ni yukou

{in this vortex, surrounded by Unown-shaped 'runes', the trainers stand as they 'descend' into the vortex and 'spin' around it}

{fade to shot of the original traveling trio, Ash in the middle in his original outfit, Misty to the left and Brock to the right, and Gray a distance from them further left; fade to them again, but with the center three's clothes changed to that of their Advanced Generation appearances, with May appearing i nbetween Misty and Gary; then fade to them again (again), but with Ash, Gary, Brock, and May in their Diamond and Pearl appearances, with Dawn and Paul appearing on the right next to Brock; two rows of seven boxes appear above and below them, in which their Pokémon are shown; at bottom, Umbreon, Blaziken, Staryu, Pikachu, Croagunk, Piplup, and Electivire; at top, Blastoise, Venusaur, Gyarados, Charizard, Steelix, Togekiss, and Torterra}

-A/N: Sucks, eh. Sorry about that. First time I tried thinking of 'concieving' of an opening all by myself. Again.-
