Time to kick off this "movie" story. Please note that author's notes will be very scarce in this story, just to let everyone know. It is very recommended that you read my story "Next Gen" before reading this, because this is part of that universe.

But, without further ado, let's kick this off with a bang.

Power. Many wish to earn it. Others wish to have it. Some...wish to take it.

Inside a large cave filled with multi-colored crystals, a man wearing a dark grey cloak was searching for something.

"Where is it? the man asked.

The man suddenly found a big, multi-colored portal.

"There it is." the man said.

As the man approached the portal, a multi-colored Lucario leapt out and swung a bone of energy at the man.

"Skarmory, come on out!" the man said, jumping back and throwing a Pokéball.

The Pokéball opened and released a metal bird Pokémon.

"Use Air Slash!" the man said.

"Skar!" the Skarmory said as it launched sawblade-shaped projectiles at the multi-colored Lucario.

The Lucario created another bone of energy and hit the attacks to the side.

"Skarmory, try a Steel Wing!" the man said.

The Skarmory flew at the Lucario, only to get punched in the face with a glowing fist.

"Use Drill Peck!" the man said.

Skarmory began to spin around like a drill, but the Lucario created an orb of Aura and launched it at the bird, causing it to faint.

"Oh no!" the man said, putting his Pokémon back, "Go, Espeon!"

The man threw another ball and released a pink, cat-like Pokémon.

"Use Psybeam!" the man said.

Espeon fired a multi-colored beam of energy at the Lucario. But the Lucario countered with a burst of Aura.

"Espeon, try a Shadow Ball!" the man said.

Espeon created a purple ball of energy and launched it at the Lucario. The Lucario created an energy bone and hit the ball back at the Espeon, sending her flying.

"Return!" the man said, putting the Pokémon back, "I choose you, Gengar!"

A large, purple ghost Pokémon appeared.

"Good luck trying to hit a Ghost-type." the man said, "Use Sludge Bomb!"

The Gengar fired a ball of sludge at the Lucario. The Lucario launched a burst of Aura that sent the attack back and hit the Gengar with it.

"Try a Dark Pulse!" the man said.

Gengar fired a black beam at the Lucario, but he dodged it and repeatedly hit him with his fists, knocking the Ghost-type out. The man put his Pokémon back in his ball.

"Leave. Now." the Lucario said via telepathy.

The man, in a panic, ran off.

"It isn't safe to leave the door open." the Lucario said, "I must take the key and hide it."

The Lucario reached into the portal and pulled a rainbow-colored feather out. Moments later, the portal disappeared.

"I swear, I will protect the Rainbow Realm with my life." the Lucario said, right before running off to places unknown.

Pokémon Next Gen:

Ho-Oh and the Rainbow Guardian

The world of Pokémon! A magical land of mystery, intrigue, and wonder! This world is home to enchanting creatures called Pokémon! Whether you're high in the sky, deep in the oceans, exploring rocky caverns, climbing treacherous mountains, hiking through dark forests, strolling across grasslands, or even searching your city, you're sure to find Pokémon! People and Pokémon share many common traits, but none more known than our love of battle! Pokémon join up with humans called Trainers who compete with them in battles of skill and contests of glamour! Speaking of which, this reminds me of two seemingly ordinary individuals. Kody of New Bark Town, who aspires to be a Pokémon Master, and his new friend Gwen, a girl who has recently moved to Johto and whishes to become a Pokémon Contest Champion! Together, they have battled various Pokémon and powerful opponents! But now, they will face a threat that could endanger the entire Pokémon World as we know it.

Kody and Gwen were sitting in a cable car as it took them up and around a mountainside.

"I'm so excited!" Gwen said, hardly able to sit still.

"Well I am too, but at least I can contain it." Kody said, trying to hold his friend down.

"Oh, look!" Gwen said, "We're going through the tunnel now!

Kody and Gwen looked through the window, waiting for the cable car to pass through the short tunnel. Once the cable car exited the tunnel, a magnificent mountainside city came into view.

"Wow..." Gwen said, awestruck.

"It's so beautiful." Kody said.

Kody and Gwen watched as the cable car continued towards the city.

Kody and Gwen exited the cable car, being greeted by a woman who appeared to be some kind of customs officer.

"Hello there and welcome to Sky City!" the woman cheerily said, "How was your trip?"

"It was nice." Kody said.

"Well, I hope your stay here in Sky City is just as nice!" the woman said, right before going to take care of other guests.

Kody and Gwen walked off, admiring the splendor of Sky City.

"How did they build a city like this on the side of a mountain?" Kody asked.

"I don't know." Gwen said, "But it's amazing!"

Suddenly, a loud rumbling could be heard.

"What's that?!" Gwen asked, "An avalanche?!"

"No, that would be my stomach." Kody said.

"Didn't you eat before we came?" Gwen asked.

"I didn't get to because you wanted to come here first thing in the morning." Kody said.

"Oh boy..." Gwen moaned as she pulled her Pokégear out, "There's a park just up ahead, we'll have breakfast there."

Kody and Gwen walked off to the park, unaware that something was watching them from the rooftops.

Kody prepared a picnic table the group found for breakfast as Gwen made a batch of Pancakes. But, as Kody waited, he just sat sluggishly.

"So...hungry." Kody said.

"You know, if you want to take your mind off of that, how about you let our Pokémon out?" Gwen asked, "I'm sure they want to eat too."

"Great idea!" Kody said, running over to his and Gwen's backpacks with a sudden burst of energy.

Kody rooted through the backpacks and pulled out the twosome's seven occupied Pokéballs.

"Let's go, everyone!" Kody said, throwing the balls into the air.

The Pokéballs opened and released Croconaw, Pichu, Zubat, Geodude, Bayleef, Ledyba, and Aipom.

"Okay, guys, who's ready to eat?" Kody asked.

The Pokémon all cheered.

"Well then, we let you guys out at just the right time." Gwen said, walking away from the campfire she was making the pancakes over, "Breakfast is ready."

Gwen set out trays of food for the Pokémon while she got pancakes out for Kody and her.

But before Kody and Gwen could take a bite, a girl with brown hair, a blue t-shirt, and white shorts with dark grey leggings under them approached the group.

"Hey!" the girl said, "Either of you a Pokémon Trainer?"

"I am." Kody said.

"My name's Verity, and I'm a pretty good Pokémon Trainer from where I come from!" the girl known as 'Verity' said.

"Let me guess, you want to challenge me to a Pokémon battle?" Kody asked.

"You guessed it!" Verity said, "You up for that?"

"Ha! I never turn down a challenge!" Kody said, "Let's go, guys!"

Kody's Pokémon all agreed.

"Even when he's as hungry as a Snorelax, Kody's mind is never taken off of battling." Gwen sighed.

Verity and Kody took opposite sides on a field with a pond in the middle. Verity threw a Pokéball that released a Piplup. Kody sent Pichu out. A battle between the twosome began.

(Please note that this next segment is meant to be like the usual montages at the beginning of most Pokémon Movies, it is recommended you play a full version of a Pokémon theme while reading this.)

Pichu sent a Thunder Shock at Piplup, who jumped up and fired a Bubble Beam at him. Pichu stopped the bubbles with a Thunder Wave. Piplup landed and rushed towards Pichu with a glowing beak. Piplup pecked at Pichu, who constantly dodged the attack. Pichu jumped back and blasted Piplup with a stream of electricity, stunning the Water-type. Pichu then used Thunder Shock and defeated the plucky Starter Pokémon.

Verity put Piplup back into his Pokéball and then she threw another one. This second ball released a Lapras into the pond.

Pichu sent a Thunder Shock at Lapras, who countered the attack with an Ice Beam. The Ice Beam overpowered the Thunder Shock and sent Pichu flying.

Kody told Pichu to come back and had Croconaw take his place. Lapras fired another Ice Beam. Croconaw, ready for this attack, jumped over it and towards Lapras. Lapras fired a stream of water at Croconaw, who countered it with his own and the attacks were brought to a standstill. Both Pokémon stopped spraying and decided to try different tactics. Croconaw ran around Lapras and avoided the attacks she sent at him. Croconaw jumped up into the air and leapt over Lapras. Croconaw landed behind Lapras and bit her tail. Lapras flailed around, trying to get Croconaw off. Croconaw let go and landed on Lapras's back. Croconaw finished the battle by attacking the back of Lapras's head and knocking her out.

"Yeah!" Kody said, "We did it!"

"Oh well." Verity said, putting her Pokémon back into its ball, "We tried."

And that was the extended prologue. Sorry for not posting a second chapter yet, but I have been try to work out a better plot.

Powerhouse out.
