This is my own unique version of the story that has been written by Skylandsonic, and I'm mighty proud of how this chapter turned out. I hope you guys like it, because it took me a bit of effort to get everything to work just right. Enjoy the story, because I'm going to enjoy writing this one!

Prologue: Rebirth in a New World!
Frost, a former member of Universe 6, was floating aimlessly in a seemingly endless expanse of white that is the world where all those who have been erased from existence by Zen-Oh are sent. It's nothing at all. No food, no water, no Other World, no nothing! Just an endless expanse of white void not unlike the Hyperbolic Time Chamber.
Frost was just sitting/floating in a fetal position, his knees drawn up to his chest with his arms wrapped around them and his tail curled around him. He should have never listened to that traitorous slime from Universe 7 that was supposed to be his mirror counterpart known as Frieza! If he had just played the loner and stayed focused on the tournament of power, he wouldn't have been tricked and wouldn't have tried to attack from outside the ring! That's what resulted in his being erased in the first place!
Frost gritted his teeth as tears began to build up in his eyes. He refused to cry, but he was slowly growing insane in this horrible place he was trapped in.
He'd lost EVERYTHING because of Universe 7!
His empire… his freedom… and now he's lost his very existence! Doomed to wither away into nothing but quazar particles as time goes on! Just like those of the tenth and ninth universe! Many of whom have already vanished because of the effects of this horrendous place!
Frost choked back a sob as he remembered why he started using such underhanded tactics to end the war and strife in Universe 6 in the first place.
Many years ago, when he was just a little Arcosian, Frost's mother was murdered right in front of him. In retaliation, Frost grabbed a nearby bottle of acidic poison and flung it at the murderer. It melted off most of the killer's face and knocked him out long enough for the police to arrive and take him away.
Ever since then, Frost vowed to end all wars and protect all children no matter what he had to do! Even if it meant he had to use the same tactics as many villains. Lies, deceit, bribery, murder! He did what he had to in order to secure the peace of Universe 6!
But then these tournaments happened, and his dream of universal peace became nothing more than a pipe dream.
'I've committed so many sins in my life that it's not even funny! I don't deserve the life I was given! Perhaps… It's better this way…' Frost thought to himself.
"What if I told you there was a way for you to start over with a clean slate?" asked a mysterious voice.
Frost gasped and looked around, desperately hoping that this was not a hallucination he was having from being in this dimension for so long. He got out of his fetal position and soon spotted a hooded figure in a black cloak. Next to him was a strange creature that looked a bit like an oversized crocodile hatchling with blue skin and these odd red spines on its back.
"Who are you? And what do you mean by a way for me to start over with a clean slate?" Frost asked.
The figure didn't speak immediately. But his hood did raise a bit to show that the lower half of his face was covered with feathers made of black fire. The figure grinned at Frost and pulled out a spherical object that was half red and half white with a black line dividing the colors and a button in the center.
"Frost… You and I have much to discuss…"
He tossed the sphere into the air and it opened with an audible *POP* before a burst of white light shot forth from the inside. Frost gasped as the light surrounded him and the strange entity. He had no idea what to expect and made to attack, but the figure simply raised a hand and released a calming aura.
The effect was instantaneous as the Arcosian male managed to relax enough to see a wondrous sight appear before his eyes. Humans on a strange world where they were partnered up with these odd creatures! Some big, some small, some looking like animals, others being spirits, and others that resembled plant life or other inanimate objects!
"My goodness…! What is this?" Frost asked.
"What you're seeing, Frost, is the world I plan to send you to should you accept my offer. You see, that world you are viewing is a world where humans coexist with creatures known as Pokemon. Pokemon, like my buddy, Totodile, possess many different attributes and come in a wide variety of shapes and sizes." the hooded entity said while gesturing to a colony of bat Pokemon and a cluster of Pokemon that looked like living eggs.
As he showed a giant stadium of sorts where two humans stood apart from each other, Frost watched in awe and fascination as both trainers tossed similar orbs to the one the hooded figure used to create these viewing portals. The results were two different Pokemon, a dog with ram horns on its head and a bipedal rhinoceros that looked like it was made of rocks and has a drill for a horn.
The two creatures immediately rushed towards each other and began to do battle as they listened to the two humans' commands.
"Some humans merely keep Pokemon as helpers or pets, but there are many trainers out there who compete in tournament style battles with their Pokemon, pitting them against each other for fame and glory. The greatest trainers among them are the Elite Four and the Champion of each respective region's Pokemon League. The region I plan to send you to for rebirth, Frost, is the Johto Region. There, you will become a Pokemon trainer and embark on an epic journey to become a powerful trainer. And quite possibly, you will become the champion of the Johto Region's Pokemon League. So… what do you say?"
Frost really didn't need to think long on this one.
Either stay here and perish from ever existing, or be reborn in a new world where he can really do some good.
The choice is obvious.
"I accept your offer!" Frost said.
With that, the hooded figure raised an arm and shot black fire at Frost. At first, he was startled, but soon found that instead of being burnt to a crisp like he thought he would be, he was instead feeling a warm sensation that felt like he was being transported. Sort of like when Zen-Oh erased him, yet different at the same time.
When the fire died down, Frost was no longer in the Endless Void. He was on his way to rebirth.
*Johto Region: A Few Miles from Newbark Town…*
A married couple of humans, a man and a woman, were asleep in their room after just setting up a crib for a baby to sleep in. They had gotten a vision from the Pokemon God, Arceus, telling them that they would soon be blessed with a child of their own. One that was quite different from most human offspring.
They didn't care how different the child would be! They immediately got to work on the crib and had it placed in their room so they would be ready for the arrival of their new baby. They were so excited for a child!
Joan and Andrew Cold been married for about half a year now, and they were finally ready to try for a baby. But that was when Arceus arrived in a vision and told them to set up a crib in their bedroom. That another deity would be bringing them a baby of their very own.
And it looks like that baby is arriving now.
Swaddled in a warm blue blanket was baby Frost. He was in his Third Regression Form, but it looked a little different compared to before. For one thing, he's only about a month old at the most, and his horns are shorter and seem to be blunt rather than being sharp. His face wasn't as angular anymore, being rounded out from baby fat.
Overall, he seemed like an adorable Arcosian baby.
And it seems like, as he smiled in his sleep, Frost could tell that he was where he truly belonged. Even if he no longer has any memory of his previous life.
*To Be Continued…*
Sorry I didn't update Scarlet Scarab: Arc of The Teen Titans, but this idea has been buzzing around in my head too much for me to focus. But don't worry, that new chapter should be up by either tomorrow evening or the evening after. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy it, and check out Skylandsonic and read their version of the story when it comes out. See you all next time.
