"Ten years have passed since Yveltal was awakened. Ten years since the last feeling of happiness or hope had left. The amount of destruction was purely horrifying and not even Xerneas was able to stop it, who was slain to end the war. Zygarde fell long before the year long battle to both Pokémon. It got in the way and was turned ash right before them. Legendary Pokémon from other regions had risen and took the battle to Yveltal but they too had fallen as betrayal had struck. Giratina, Groudon, Darkrai, Kyurem and Mewtwo chose the side of chaos and helped usher in the new era.
Groudon took Hoenn for himself and reigned over the fallen region from atop of Mt. Chimney as ash covered the landscape and even a town like Vendanturf was deemed unlivable. Kyurem turned Unova into a frozen wasteland where trees became frozen knifelike statues and stepping into the harsh winds would mean immediate death. Sinnoh became the dominion of both Giratina and Darkrai. A warped and sinister region what was left of Sinnoh, it became a portal for the underworld and other dimensions. Kalos was a graveyard for Pokémon and humans who gave their lives trying to protect the ones who had lived alongside them in harmony for centuries. Kanto and Johto were left untouched by the others. Mewtwo had complete control of the two regions and kept it as a haven for Pokémon, but it was a slaughterhouse for any human he found. His hatred for humans came out tenfold during this time and he was the least merciful of the deadly alliance.
The skies were a blood red and nights were pitch black. No lights emanated from street lamps or even from houses. Lakes, rivers and oceans dried up and aquatic Pokémon quickly became extinct, save for the ones that could live on land. Humans took refuge in caverns and mountains across the world along with their Pokémon partners, who were used for their resources such as Tropius and Cherrim for their fruit and Water types for their water supply.
Trainers would venture out to find the Pokémon of Death but none ever returned, they all met the same fate as Zygarde. Gym Leaders and Elite Four members became the hierarchy with the Champions leading the last of the human race. All but one. Cynthia, who was thought to be the strongest of all Champions, fell to Yveltal early on. Her team fell to the winged beast one by one save for Garchomp. Yveltal took notice of the woman's strength and spared her life along with Garchomp's own, but banished her from his conquered lands. Rumors spread that she was in Orre, some say Almia. No one was certain and no one could give proof. In the passing years, she became just another story to tell around the fire. fire.
For ten years it seemed like all hope was lost. But unbeknownst to the people trapped in these fallen regions, groups of former teams had been scattered to the outer regions. They had been trying to build an army to fight. To help take back what was once theirs. People like Maxie and Archie, Giovanni and Cyrus, they finally saw what destruction leads to and felt like they could lead a resistance in hopes that they could make a change for a better future."
"Do you really believe this so called resistance is real and they could really help us?" asked a girl no older than nine with a tattered red bandana holding a Torchic doll.
"I believe that it is real and they could help." said the mysterious hooded woman as she stood up.
"What makes you so sure?" the girl asked once more.
Before the woman could answer, a Mega Garchomp appeared from the shadows of an entrance and stood behind her as she pulled her hood back.
"We're here."
