Pokémon Platinum: A New Generation

Prologue: The Legend

The legend of the Pokésoul… if I remember correctly it goes something like this.

Many millennia ago when Arceus first created this universe, he noticed that all of the powerful creatures he'd created could not be contained. Jealous of one another's powers they all attacked each other. The Great War between every Pokémon ever known was thus ensued.

Arceus attempted to stop them but soon regretted it as he was attacked. The alpha Pokémon retreated to the heavens to escape the brutal mess he'd created.

It was then that Arceus thought of it. If he created beings that were not of their power, perhaps they could calm the Pokémon.

With what power he had left Arceus summoned two humans from the destructive world below.

'Young humans,' Arceus declared, 'you have obviously seen the horrible war taking place in your world. I've begun to realize that not even I can stop them. I believe that if I used beings that appear lower then the Pokémon then perhaps I could calm them.'

'How do you expect us to do it? We're mere humans,' one of them said.

'I will bestow magical powers on you. So powerful are these powers that you have to do nothing more than simple singing to calm these Pokémon. You will have the power of the gods at your disposal. I trust you humans will not abuse. However, I expect you to return to me the powers I've given you when this job is complete.' Arceus growled.

The humans bowed accordingly.

'To amplify your powers I have found eight willing Pokémon to help you. However, you must find them, as of now I only have two in my possession,' a Pikachu with an electric guitar along with an Espeon with a pair of drums appeared beside Arceus, 'These two are Chai the Espeon and Pi the Pikachu, their title is Soulmon. Yours is Pokésoul. Each of you will obtain three more Soulmon. A Soulmon's location may be found by playing its parallel song. I wish you luck in stopping this fight.' On that, Arceus ducked out of sight.

'Wait! Who are the other Soulmon?' one of the humans shouted after the god Pokémon.

No response made her duck her head in defeat.

'No worries, with our help we'll find them in due time!' Pi shook the female's hand encouragingly.

'All in due time,' Chai said jumping to the male humans side.

So… as Chai foretold, the other Soulmon were found in time. They were Fear the Darkrai, Star the Flygon, Mana the Manaphy, owned by the male. The female found Brittany the Skymin, Baby the Mew, and Vaati the Umbreon. Each Soulmon had a sacred instrument assigned to them.

Once gathered together the two Pokésoul's voices reined the battlefield with their eight Soulmon jamming along behind them. The battle ceased to exist after that.

So, once everything was calmed once more the two Pokésoul's fell in love and their Soulmon as well. In time, each had a single child. The next generation of each was created the male Pokésoul always being born to two completely oblivious humans while the female was to the Pokésouls.

Arceus was in a deep slumber for the songs affected him too. So as generations passed by the Pokésouls kept their power for eternity. However, Arceus awakens now, and he's not pleased that there are Pokésouls remaining.
