Well, after my two year hiatus, I'm back. And I recently finished Omega Ruby, and as such decided to create a story with little relevance to the game! Yay!
This story actually came as an idea for a ROM hack, but since that requires a lot of work, I decided to test the concept here first. I made a few changes to my notes to make it more of a story and less of a game, but the game idea came first, so this will be a bit different than planned.
So, this story will NOT have any of the Gen 5 or 6 Pokemon in it, mainly because I never played X and Y and for simplicity's purposes. This story essentially exists in an AU where Unova and Kalos don't exist. It will span across all four of the other main regions, along with a few small islands and locations I added. It also features a lot of OCs, and several new Pokemon made by me. It will take place after the events of ORAS, with reference to the story and the Delta Episode. I'm not sure if Mega Evolution will be included or not, but Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre will be mentioned.
Prologue
In the world of Pokemon, the tale of deities is often told. Many speak of Arceus, whom some worship as a god. Others speak of Dialga and Palkia, those who have control over time and space, and even Ghiratina, who was banished by Arceus for violence and rebellion. Others still speak of Groudon and Kyogre, whose power over the forces of nature nearly led to the destruction of the world. And yet others also speak of Rayquaza, who had power to calm and conquer Kyogre and Groudon. But none speak of the two oldest, and greatest, of these godlike Pokemon. There is another, deeper story. One far darker than any of the other stories told...
Many, many years ago, when the world was new, and the region's had yet to be formed, two ferocious Pokemon fought. Humans were a new race, and had only just began to develop. One Pokemon wished to destroy the humans and reform the world in its own image. The other wanted to spare the humans and allow the world to take its own form. The two Pokemon fought, nearly destroying the world. Their power was so great that nothing could stop their fight. Even Arceus, the Creator, had no power to stop these two. No one knew how to stop them.
One human, however, had an idea. If the two Pokemon could be stripped of their godlike powers, and forced into a mortal state, then they could be locked away. Three other Pokemon, almost as ancient as the mighty ones, met with the human and formulated a plan. The human would sacrifice his life – and his life force – to the three Pokemon, who would be able to use this life force to give themselves the power they needed to strip the two deities of their godlike powers. Then, with the two Pokemon made mortal, Arceus, Dialga, and Palkia would be able to combine their powers and lock the two away, far away from each other and from any humans.
The plan was successful – though the now mortal Pokemon put up a might fight. Lives were lost, and the land itself was formed and changed. The regions bean to form, and the people that lived on each region began to thrive with the Pokemon that lived their. Each region had different Pokemon species, and the people of each region began to grow and develop with those Pokemon. The world had peace.
Over time, the story of the two deities was all but forgotten. Only a small tribe of humans knew the truth, and they were under a strict oath to never reveal it to anyone. Their sole purpose was to make sure that the knowledge of what happened would be available should the two Pokemon ever become free.
"Thank you...for letting me...research your caverns," Courtney said to an elderly woman. Courtney was a young girl with short purple hair and lavender eyes. She was short, and very pretty. She was also a member of Team Magma – both before and after the Primal Crisis. She used to work with Maxie, Team Magma's leader, to awaken Groudon. But now she and Maxie worked mainly in researching Pokemon legends and lore, hoping to gain better understanding of people and Pokemon's interactions in the past. Rather than wearing her typical – and very stuffy – Team Magma uniform, she had a pair of shorts and a red t-shirt. The small island was very hot, and very humid. It was also very, very remote. It took Courtney weeks to pinpoint the general location on a map, and several days of searching to find it.
"No, thank you for coming to our island," the old woman replied. "We haven't heard from anyone else in centuries. Thank you for bringing us news of our Hoenn family." The woman hugged Courtney. Courtney blushed and awkwardly hugged the woman back.
"Now, remember," the old woman said once she let go. "You cannot tell anyone of what you learned here. The legends of the two deity Pokemon must be kept from the world."
"I..promise not to tell anyone. Not even...Maxie," Courtney promised. The old woman just smiled and patted Courtney on the back.
Courtney turned around and walked back to her helicopter. She got in and flew away, back to Hoenn, back to Lilycove City.
"So, this is what the story depicts," a mysterious figure said quietly to himself. The figure was cloaked in all black. He was tall and thin, and had short, dark hair. He was inside the caves with pictures depicting the battle between the two deity Pokemon. "Hm, one who desired to destroy mankind, another who wished to save it. And yet, both were locked away. Why? Why not allow the good Pokemon to remain free?"
Something beeped on the figures wrist. "It seems it's time for me to leave. Phase one of our plan will soon begin."
Well, that's the prologue, which is always short. So, please review and let me know what you think of it so far, as well as any suggestions for the story.
