Seeing A Legend
One, Two, Three
Josh, Kiara, Charizard and Gardevoir was standing in the field, looking up at the sky as they feel a gentle breeze.
Hey, is it time, is it time, is it time? Hurry up!
Josh was flying on Charizard's back through the sky.
Are you ready to head out?
Kiara was making sure that they have everything they need.
We don't need a sendoff
To the strange world I want to show you
Josh and Kiara was flying on Mega Rayquza's back high above the world of Pokémon as Mewtwo and Deoxys was flying by.
Be it through fire or through water
I'm fumbling blindly through the days
When I don't even know what the next second will bring
Josh, Kiara, Charizard, Lucario and Gardevoir was traveling through the regions they visit.
Each and every one of my memories
A pink orb was floating above Josh and Kiara's heads. The orb disappeared, revealing Mew.
Can always be found inside a ball
Josh and Kiara looks at each other and nodded before throwing a Poké Ball.
On 1,2,3, dive in!
Mike, Rose and Emma stood watch as Josh, Kiara, Charizard, Gardevoir and Lucario were meditating as Scorbunny, Sobble and Grookey played together.
I've got the future plans I imagined in my pockets
Scorbunny was training with Josh as Sobble, Kiara and Gardevoir was surprised by Grookey's rythm.
Greeting someone new is always fresh
Josh, Kiara and their Pokémon was facing off Blaze and Sir Ricky as Reiki stood on a cliff, battling against a Turnonator.
No need (No need!) to hesistate! Try! (Try!) Let's have a fight!
Charizard flew towards Tyranitar with her Dragon Claw as Scorbunny used Ember on Beedrill while Sobble used Water Gun on Onix.
1: Once The Battle Is Done
Josh and Kiara finished sparring and stares at each other.
2: And we're laughing or crying
Charizard smiled while Scorbunny was trying to cheer up Sobble.
On 3, let's be friends!
Josh and Kiara were surrounded by their Pokémon, Mike, Emma and Lucia.
Any day and every day, that always been my rule
Josh, Kiara and Lucia were visiting several landmarks and meeting different various Pokémon from the other regions.
With this unpredictable, boundless world waiting
Josh, Kiara and their partner Pokémon were facing Zacian and Zamazenta in a forest.
Let's go! Every time you trip and fall
The three starter Pokemon of Galar were on the ground after they tripped. They all ran to their new friends.
Let's go! You pick yourself up by my side
Josh and Kiara smiled as the two of them saw many different Legendary Pokémon.
I choose you
Josh and Kiara were standing in a grassy field looking up at the sky.
It's a beautiful day at Mike's lab. Josh and Kiara was bringing some food to their Pokémon. Lucario was meditating under a tree.
"You guys!" John called, running towards them with Scorbunny.
Josh and Kiara turns around to look at them.
"What is it, John?" Josh asks him as he ran up to him.
"There's been several sightings of Ho-Oh!" John exclaims to them.
"What?!" Kiara gasps.
"Come on!" John urges them.
They followed John and Scorbunny back inside the lab. Professor Mike turns around and smiled.
"Is it true there's been several sightings of Ho-Oh, Professor?" Josh asks Mike.
"There's a quite close connection between Ho-Oh and the ancient legends of Johto." Mike said.
Ruby pulled up several files of Ho-Oh and the pictures were showed up on the screen.
"This is very exciting." Mike said.
"That's Ho-Oh?" Emma asked.
"Yes it is." Mike said, looking at her. "Hardly anyone ever gets the chance to see it for themselves."
"And there are records of it that are few and far between." Ruby added. She pulled up a picture of a city that Josh and Kiara knew.
"There were several reports in the vicinity of Ecruteak City in the Johto Region." Mike said, looking at the monitor.
Josh looks at Kiara. "We haven't been to Johto in a while." Josh said.
"It'll be good to go back to Johto." Kiara smiled.
"Same here." John added.
"Maybe we'll see the other Legendary Pokémon when we see Ho-Oh." Lucina said to Emma.
"Then let's all head to Johto!" Josh announced.
After leaving the Kanto Region, Josh and his friends have arrived in Ecruteak City.
"Man, coming back to Johto brings back memories." Josh smiled.
"So where do we start looking for Ho-Oh here?" Emma wondered.
"The Bell Tower." Kiara answered, causing Emma to look at her. "That is where we'll see Ho-Oh."
"I wonder if we'll see the Legendary Beasts." Emma said to Kiara. "I hear that they're the servants of Ho-Oh."
"And they are watching us every day." Kiara said.
"Interesting." Lucina said.
"Let's head over to the Bell Tower." Josh said to them.
As they headed toward the Bell Tower after crossing the bridge, John spoke up. "So Josh, have you and Kiara seen Ho-Oh and the Legendary Beasts before?" John asks Josh.
"Yes, we have seen them before." Josh answered, turning his head to the left to look at John. "The first time I encountered Entei, Suicune and Raikou was in the Burned Tower and Ho-Oh was waiting for me in a big grassy field."
"Is that the Burned Tower?" Lucina pointed to a tower that covered in soot.
"Yes." Josh answered, looking at the Burned Tower. "It used to be called the Brass Tower."
"What do you mean?"
"About 300 years ago, a great fire engulfed the tower of Ho-Oh. Everything was destroyed but 32 metal bells and four crystal bells survived the fire." Josh said. "The tower was rebuilt and the bells were placed back into their original spots and the people hope that Ho-Oh will return one day."
"Then who was the other Pokémon that used to live in the other tower?" Lucina asked.
"That would be Lugia, according to some legends." Josh answered. "It used to perch there, but this tower was used to be perched by Ho-Oh. Ho-Oh made contact with the humans and Morty's ancestors protected the tower. The Legendary Pokémon will only appear to a chosen few and only those who guard the tower. But one day, invaders came to sought to use Ho-Oh's power for evil. This tower was set on fire during the battle. Ho-Oh fled, ceasing to make contact with humans. It never returned."
"Whoa." Lucina said.
"Morty's ancestors left this tower as it is as a reminder for future generations." Josh continued. "They made a second tower, hoping Ho-Oh will return to a new place of peace, but it never returned."
"What about Entei, Suicune and Raikou?" Emma asked.
"They are the servants and observers. Humans are the source of Ho-Oh's anger. The legend says humans tried to steal the power of Ho-Oh and all Pokémon, causing a great fire to the tower." Josh explains. "Three Pokémon were caught in the flame, unable to escape on time. Ho-Oh watched in sadness and disgrace, drawing the forces of nature and its own ancient power. Ho-Oh created new lives for them. The reincarnation of the North Wind, Suicune. The reincarnation of the volcano, Entei. The reincarnation of thunder, Raikou. Ho-Oh sent the three Pokémon to observe humans. They wait for the day when Pokémon and humans can live in cooperation and harmony. When that time comes, Ho-Oh will return."
"So that means they're still watching us right now." Lucina said.
"That is correct." Josh nodded.
"Amazing." Emma said.
"So what happened after you met them?" Lucina asks him.
"After meeting Entei, Raikou and Suicune, they began roaming around Johto." Josh explained. "I've battled and captured them. Even Ho-Oh. Ho-Oh is very powerful when I first met it."
They arrived at the the Bell Tower.
"Since we're here, we need this." Josh said.
He kneels down and places his blueback on the ground. Josh takes out a Rainbow Wing.
"What's that?" Lucina asks him.
"It's a Rainbow Wing." Kiara answered. "We'll need it to call Ho-Oh."
"Hm?" John looks up and notices it is beginning to rain. "We should get inside. It's starting to rain."
They all ran inside. John, Lucina and Emma notices a picture of Ho-Oh on the wall.
"So that's it." Lucina said, looking at the picture.
"Ho-Oh." Emma said.
"There's a rainbow in this picture like the one we saw back at the lab." Lucina pointed out.
"I wonder if the rainbow is the key." John wondered.
Josh and Kiara looks at each other and chuckled. Lucario watches Scorbunny and Sobble going up the steps.
"Scorbunny Bun." Scorbunny called to them.
"Come on." Kiara said to her friends. "Let's head to the top."
As they began to climb the stairs, Josh felt the staircase beginning to swallow his foot. He looks behind and sees everyone was having a hard time standing up.
"What the hell is going on?!" Emma shouted.
"I don't know!" John yelled, trying to hang on to the railing.
Scorbunny hops onto Josh's shoulders as Sobble hops into Kiara's arms. Lucario and Gardevoir was doing their best not to fall over. The stairs transforms into a steep ramp, causing them all to slide down back to the first floor and hitting the wall except Lucario and Gardevoir who landed safely.
John lifts his head and pointed at something at the top of the staircase. "Look!" John pointed.
They all looked up and notices a Stantler. Stantler began to emit purple waves from its antlers. Everyone found themselves inside a cave.
"What the hell?" John asked confused. "Weren't we climbing the stairs at Bell Tower?"
"Yeah." Lucina answered.
"This is a illusion, Lucina." Emma said to the vamire.
"Kiara, do you want to do the honors?" Josh asks Kiara.
Kiara nodded her head and took several steps ahead of them and stops. Her body began to glow white and her body began to transform. Kiara's body was covered in a white fur and grew a white tail. White wings sprouted from her back. Kiara open her blue eyes. "Illusionary Sight!" she shouted. Her eyes began to glow white.
The cave began to disappear and they were back in the Bell Tower. Kiara transforms back into her human form.
"Stantler and Misdreavus, huh?" Josh asked, looking up the two Pokemon at the top of the stairs. "Scorbunny, use Double Kick on Stantler!"
"Do you want to battle Sobble?" Kiara asks him.
"Sobble." he said.
"Alight." Kiara smiled. "Sobble, use Water Pulse!"
"Sob!" Sobble shouted, firing a ball of water at Misdreavus.
Scorbunny kicks Stantler with both of his feet at the same time. Both attacks sent the two Pokémon to the floor. Stantler and Misdreavus quickly got up and left the tower.
"Good job, Scorbunny." Josh told him with a smile.
"You too, Sobble." Kiara added.
"Let's not forget about you too, Kiara." Josh said, looking at her. "You broke through their illusions too."
"Thank you, Josh." Kiara thanked him.
Everyone continued climbing up the stairs until they reach the top. Lucario and the other Pokémon hops over the broken steps as the others did the same thing.
"The rain stopped." Lucario said, noticing it stopped raining.
"And all we need is a rainbow." Josh said, taking out the Rainbow Wing.
As if on a cue, a rainbow appeared in the distance. Josh smiled, raising the wing into the air and called, "Ho-Oh!"
"Scorbunny!" Scorbunny shouted.
"We're waiting for you!" Lucina called.
Everyone has been calling out for Ho-Oh for ten minutes. There was no sound. Only silence. Kiara looks at the Rainbow Wing and notices the wings began to glow. "Josh, the wing!" Kiara alerted him.
He looks at the wing and notice it was shining. Josh places the wing in front of him and the wing had all the colors of the rainbow.
"Now I see why they call it the Rainbow Wing." John smiled.
"Hey!" Lucina shouted, pointing at the sky.
Everyone looks up at the sky. Flying high through the sky was the Legendary Pokémon, Ho-Oh.
"It's Ho-Oh!" Kiara smiled.
They all watched Ho-Oh fly above the rainbow and disappeared.
After seeing Ho-Oh, everyone went back Mike's Lab in Vermillion City.
"So you saw Ho-Oh." Mike smiled after Josh told him they saw Ho-Oh.
"It was amazing." Lucina said.
"But one thing for sure, we have a lot to learn about Pokémon." Josh said. "And I'll continue to fight and protect this world from Team Delta."
"And you have us to help too." Kiara added.
Heroes will always keep fighting to protect the world they live in. Let's go, as the journey continues!
