Final chapter away!

(Lydia's POV)

Celebi came back after a few days and Grovyle and I discussed our plan with her. "So, Lydia can find all the time gears and then I will transport the two of you to the past so we can stop the paralysis of the planet." We both nodded. "Yes, but at a price." I told them. They looked at me confused. "What price?" Grovyle asked me. "We, the Pokémon and human of the future, will disappear." At first, they both looked shocked, then they nodded. "We understand. As long as we can prevent this future, it will be worth it." We all smiled are got ready to go all over to find all the time gears.

(Dusknoir's POV)

Luckily, I know where all the time gears are I sent the sableye to watch each of the places where the time gears were hidden. And once they got to the finally final time gears location. We would capture them and destroy them. But Master Diagla wanted to punish Lydia and Grovyle himself.

Soon, we will be rid of all of them and this future will never change.

(Grovyle's POV)

From what I read about the time gears in Wigglytuff's Guild. There are five time gears. One is in the forest we live in and after Lydia had another vision we learned that we need to use Groundon's heart to lift the fog and there is a guardian there protecting the time gear. So, we needed to be mindful of that. Later we found one in deep in a forest and since it had no guardian we knew that this would be the first that Lydia and I would get. To not stir up any attention.

It took us a very long time to find four locations of the time gears. We just needed to find one more and the two of us could go to the past and save it. We went to another location on our map. It was a desert with many sandstorms and quicksand pools at the end of the dungeon. We all looked around to find something useful for Lydia to use her Dimensional Scream ability. Finally, it happened, Lydia had a vision of a time gear in this spot guarded by Mespirit. We finally knew where all the time gears were and if there was someone guarding them. Now we just needed to return home and Lydia and I would go to the past to stop the paralysis of the planet.

We were about to leave to head home when suddenly we were surrounded by sableye. "Sableye!" Lydia shouted. We all knew that we needed to defeat them quickly. Something seemed odd about this and I could tell Lydia was thinking the same thing. If all these sableye were here then Dusknoir wasn't too far behind. "Grovyle, Celebi are you guys ready?" Lydia asked us. We both nodded. If we lose here, then we will lose our chance to save the future. It took us some time but we defeated all of the sableye. We were all tired from our journey and from fighting the sableye and I knew that we wouldn't be able to handle another fight even with Lydia's Oran berries and reviver seeds. "We need to leave." Lydia said. I could tell be her voice that she was tired. She was also a human child and I know that just like young Pokémon children they need sleep. "I agree with you, Lydia. We won't win another fight if we run into Dusknoir." I said. We left the dungeon and we ran into Dusknoir. "Going somewhere?" He asked.

Lydia came in front of us to protect us. "Leave us alone, Dusknoir. My partner, Grovyle and I are going to change the future whether you and Diagla like it or not." Lydia call me her partner. I feel the same way about her. I trust her and she trusts me. Trust? That's it. Lydia never trusted anyone and didn't have a Pokémon partner till she met me. So, in order for Lydia's ability to be activated she must have a trusted Pokémon partner. "Your partner? You never trusted to many Pokémon till you left your home. Why Grovyle?" He asked. "He's my friend. I learned to truth about my family and what you did. I know you started the fire that killed my family. Besides how can a grass type Pokémon start a fire?" He smiled smugly. "Well, guess you figured it out. But now I must take you and Grovyle to Master Diagla."

"You will have to defeat us in order to take us to Primal Diagla." I told him as I stood by Lydia. Celebi nodded as she also stood by Lydia.

"Fine. If that is what you want then so be it!" Dusknoir said then he went into a fighting stance. We weren't going to give up and neither was he. If we lose here, then we will lose our chance to save the future. It took us a long time but we finally defeated Dusknoir. Then Celebi teleported us back to the forest so we could finally rest.

(Lydia's POV)

Once the three of us got back home, we could finally take a breath. "We did it." I said completely breathless. They both nodded. "Yeah, now we should all get some sleep and get ready for tomorrow because Lydia, you and I are going to the past to change the future." Grovyle told me and I nodded in understanding before falling into a blissful sleep.

The next day

When I woke up, Grovyle and Celebi were already awake. "Are you ready, Lydia? Grovyle asked me. I nodded. I checked my bag to see if I had everything I need: Berries, Seeds, and my Lopunny doll. "Alright, we should move. The portal is this way." Celebi said. We were walking through a forest and a huge mountain that was behind the forest. We made our way to the top of the mountain and I saw a large blue portal. "What is this?" I asked clearly curious.

"This is what you and Grovyle are going to use to travel to the past." Celebi explained. "Wow. This is amazing, Celebi." I said clearly in awe. "Thanks, Lydia."

"Lydia, are you ready?" Grovyle asked me as he held his hand out. "Yes, let's go." I said as I grabbed his hand. We waved goodbye to Celebi and entered the time portal. "Whoa!" We both shouted. Time traveling was so weird. I could hear thunder and lightning and I could see rain. Grovyle and I are almost to the past. Suddenly I heard some evil laughter. I turned around to see Darkrai. He laughed evilly and started powering up a powerful move. 'He's aiming at Grovyle! I have to protect him!' I quickly put myself behind Grovyle just as Darkrai sent his move. It hit me and I absorbed the entire attack and Darkrai disappeared. I could feel myself losing consciousness. "Whoa! Wh-wh-whoa…! Are… Are you okay?" I franticly asked Grovyle. "No! Don't let go! Just a little longer… Come on! Hang on!" Grovyle told me as I was slipping from his grip.

"N-n-no! I can't…hold on…!" I slipped from Grovyle grip and screamed as I lost consciousness.

(Grovyle's POV)

I landed in the Eastern Forest in the past. I could tell because I could see the sun for the first time. I know knew that I had to save the future from its paralysis. But Lydia was gone. I have no idea what happened to her. She might not even be in this time period. I sighed in defeat. Lydia was gone and I would possibly never see her again. I noticed that Lydia's bag was now in my hand. 'I must have grabbed it before she fell from my grip.' I looked in the bag and noticed her Lopunny doll. 'This never left her sight.' I looked at it carefully and sighed sadly. 'If I ever see Lydia again then I will have to give this to her. Then I placed the doll in back in her bag and wrapped it around me and I left the forest to get all the time gears and save the future.

With Lydia and Riolu

(No one's POV)

Lydia sighed in sadness as she told her partner the story about how she and Grovyle met. "Wow. I never knew. So, you used to live in a village with Lucario's and Riolu's and work for Dusknoir?" Riolu asked. "Yes, I remember it all vividly."

"So, do you remember you parents?" He asked curiously. "No. I don't. I was fairly young when I was taken in. All they told me was that I was sitting in the forest crying for my mom and dad with my Lopunny doll in my hands." Lydia told him.

The two sat in silence for a few minutes as they watched the sun come up. "Lydia, this Lopunny doll, was is missing a small patched of fluff from it left leg?" Lydia looked at Riolu surprised. "How did you know that? I never told you that."

Riolu motioned her to follow her and they duo went to their home where Riolu went through a small bag and pulled out Lydia's old Lopunny. "My Lopunny?! But how?"

"Grovyle gave it to me. He knew that you would be missing it so he decided to give it to me to give to you. Oh, he also wanted to give you this letter." He said as he handed Lydia a letter.

"Dear Lydia,

I don't know if you will ever gain your memory back from being a human but I want to give you back your Lopunny doll. When we first met, I knew that you cherished it. When we got separated it was in my hands, I knew that I had to return it to you. But I never knew if you would ever get it back. I am very glad to return it to you. I am just sad that I could never return it to you myself. I hope that if you are reading this that you can cherish it once more.

Sincerely,

Grovyle." As Lydia finished reading, she smiled in happiness. Not only because she had her Lopunny doll back but also, she had amazing friends like Grovyle, Celebi, and Riolu.
