Ember and the gang were continuing on their journey and they were actually getting near Greenfield. They had just come to a park.
"Raichu." Tesla said, seeing an Aipom on the tree branch.
"Aipom!" A purple monkey-like Pokémon said, as it ran across the branch and landed on its trainer shoulder.
A young teen girl with elbow length dark purple hair, wearing a red bandana and orange eyes, came up to them. "Are any of you guys Pokémon trainers?" She asked.
Ember nodded, "I am. My name is Ember."
Misty and Brock introduced themselves as well.
"Nice to meet all of you. I'm Lisa Katō, a trainer also." The young teen trainer introduced herself, "Want battle?"
Ember and Lisa decided to do a six on six Pokémon battle.
Ember sent out her Chomper, and Lisa sent out her Granbull. Granbull ran towards the big jaw Pokémon with its fangs, trying to use Bite on it but Chomper kept on dodging it. Chomper flipped backwards twice and launched a Hydro Pump attack, which caused the fairy Pokémon crashing into the tree and knocked out.
Ember and Chomper won the first round.
Lisa returned her unconscious Granbull back and she held out another Pokéball, running towards the flower bed, she tossed the Pokéball and out appeared Girafarig, the long neck Pokémon.
Ember returned back her big jaw Pokémon and she held out another Pokéball, she threw it into the sky and out appeared Levy, the leaf Pokémon.
Girafarig jumped to used Stomp on the leaf Pokémon, who jumps to the side, avoiding it. Levy used Vine Whip and she was able to get the long neck Pokémon to topple over. The long neck Pokémon got back up and fired a Psybeam attack towards the leaf Pokémon who dodged it and Levy immediately fired three Energy Balls. All Three Energy Ball hit Girafarig directly and it caused the long neck Pokémon to collapse on the ground with swirling eyes.
Ember Ketchum and Levy won the second round match.
Ember returned Levy and held out another Pokéball, sending out her shiny Noctowl for the third round.
Lisa returned back her unconscious Girafarig and her long tail Pokémon jumped onto her shoulder, she sent her Aipom out to battle.
Aipom dashed towards the parks climbing frame as Yoru swooped in to Tackle it but the long tail Pokémon used the parks climbing equipment to dodge it. Aipom tried to use Scratch on the shiny owl Pokémon but Noctowl outsmarted it and flew below the park. The long tail Pokémon looked around and then the shiny owl Pokémon flew back up and used Head Butt on Aipom really hard, causing it to fly away.
Lisa caught her long tail Pokémon and saw that Aipom was knocked out.
Ember Ketchum and Yoru won the third round match.
Ember praised her shiny Noctowl before returning it and she sent out Togetic. At the same time Lisa sent out Butterfree to battle.
Ember had Philotes use Shadow Ball at the butterfly Pokémon but Butterfree used Safeguard, to protect itself. Butterfree flew towards the happiness Pokémon to use Sleep Powder, Philotes use Fairy Wind, blowing away the Sleep Powder and then she uses Aerial Ace, hitting the butterfly Pokémon directly, knocking it out.
Ember Ketchum and Philotes won the fourth round match.
Lisa returned back her unconscious Butterfree, she jumped backwards as the next Pokémon was released.
Ember returned Philotes back to her Pokéball and then sent out Pele.
Lisa sent out Mankey to battle.
Pele yawned as her flames appeared on his back, ready. Both Mankey and Pele charged towards each other using Tackle attack. The pig monkey Pokémon then tried the punch the fire mouse Pokémon with its fist but Pele dodges it and she sent a blast of Flamethrower towards Mankey, causing it to faint with burning marks on its body.
Ember Ketchum and Pele won the fifth round match.
Lisa returned back her unconscious Mankey and tossed her Pokéball into the sky, sending out Quagsire the water fish Pokémon as her sixth Pokémon.
Ember returned back Pele and sent out Tesla as her sixth Pokémon. Ember knew that Quagsire was both a water and ground type, so she ordered Tesla to use Iron Tail and then Shadow Ball. Tesla hit Quagsire good with her Iron Tail and fired four Shadow Balls. Then Quagsire used Water Gun, which Tesla dodged and used Shadow Ball on Quagsire once more. Then used Electro Ball which hit Quagsire on the head. After the hit, Quagsire fainted. Ember was the winner of the battle.
After the Pokémon Battle was over, Lisa and her Pokémon's joined the gang with their lunch.
"I have to say Ember, you're one of the strongest trainer I've ever face." Lisa complimented, "I couldn't even win one match."
Ember smiled, "Thanks Lisa. You're a strong trainer yourself." She said.
"Ember's Pokémon hasn't battled in a while, but that doesn't mean she doesn't train them." Brock commented. "... That's reminds me. Hey Lisa, do happen to know if a Pokémon Centre anywhere around here?"
Lisa nodded, "Yeah, there is. One over the mountain in Greenfield." She said.
"Just over the mountains in... Everyone's heard of Greenfield. I've wanted to see it since I was a little girl." Misty smiled.
"Me, too!" Lisa winked, "And I know the quickest way to get there."
Aipom was swinging along the trees as Lisa led the gang down a path through the mountains.
"Greenfield is a beautiful little town with beautiful gardens and a beautiful mountain with a beautiful mansion right at the top." Misty said.
"Yes, everything in Greenfield is beautiful." Lisa agreed.
"Everything is beautiful in Greenfield, huh?" Brock said before he grinned and blushed, "Then I can't wait to see all the girls!"
Ember and Tesla sighed.
"He'll never change." Ember muttered.
Tesla nodded, "Raichu."
Lisa and the gang soon reached a meadow that was full of flowers.
Lisa pointed ahead of them, "You can see Greenfield from up at the top of the hill."
Misty ran ahead, followed by Ember, Brock, and Lisa. When they reached the top of the hill, they were shocked at what they saw: a giant crystal flower with two crystal towers and a crystalized landscape around it. As they got closer, they saw a bunch of flowers get crystalized.
"What is this?" Misty gasped.
"I don't know, Misty." Ember replied, "But it doesn't look good."
Then they heard sirens behind them and saw Officer Jenny drive by.
"Officer Jenny." Brock blushed.
Then a news van pulled up. A female reporter and a camera man came out. The female reporter stood in front of the camera man.
"Ready?" The female reporter asked.
"Almost." The camera man replied.
"Tell me when." The female reporter said.
"ln three, two, hit it." The camera man said.
"Behind me lies the normally peaceful town of Greenfield. But these green fields have suddenly undergone a disturbing transformation. Officials are baffled by this phenomenon which has originated from the mansion of Pokémon researcher Spencer Hale whose wife mysteriously disappeared two years ago." The female reporter informed.
"We should go to the Pokémon Center. We'll probably find out what's happening there." Ember suggested.
"Good idea." Brock agreed.
Lisa and the gang headed towards the Pokémon Center.
The gang and Lisa were at the Pokémon center. They had met Schuyler and he told them about Prof Hale's disappearance. Ember made a phone call to Sabrina, but her father took the call; Sabrina was out at the moment. Ember asked him to tell Sabrina to call her back as soon as she was home because it was an emergency.
Just then some construction workers and police turned up. The gang headed outside to see.
"I'm here in front of the Greenfield Pokémon Centre, were an emergency response team is just arriving." The reporter said.
Professor Oak exited out the car.
"I'm really glad you could come." Schuyler stated with a smile.
"Professor Oak?" Misty asked.
"Rai." Tesla said, as she ran towards the car.
Delia Ketchum stepped out from the car. She smiled as she spotted a familiar Raichu and picked her up. "Hello Tesla."
"Raichu!" Tesla smiled.
"Mom!" Ember said, shocked.
"Hello Ember." Delia greeted her daughter.
"Well, Hello. I didn't expect to see you kids here." Professor Oak said, amused.
"We didn't expect you either Professor." Brock said.
Ember hugged her mom happily. But Ember had a bad feeling coming from that mansion. She hoped that she could help Molly somehow.
Delia was talking to Ember and the others about Prof Hale.
"I've know Professor Hale for years, we use to study Pokémon at Professor Oak's lab." Delia explained to the gang and Lisa about knowing Professor Hale.
"He left Pallet Town to become a famous Pokémon researcher right?" Ember asked.
"That's correct," Delia replied, "But he and his family came back to Pallet Town for a visit a few years ago, when you were seven years old."
"I remember now. Molly and I used to play together a lot along with Tesla and when Lucario was a Riolu back then." Ember smiled, looking at the photo.
"Rai rai!" Tesla agreed.
Delia looked back at the Hale mansion, "First Spencer's wife disappeared and now all this happens." She said.
"It's really weird." Brock said.
"Rai." Tesla's ears twitched as she senses something approaching them.
Entei appeared before them and his feet turned the ground to crystal.
Ember stared at the legendary volcano Pokémon feeling something was off about it.
"What is that?" Lisa gasped.
"Entei, the Volcano Pokémon. Also one of the Legendary Pokémon of Johto and one of the Legendary Beast." Ember explained.
Delia stood up from the seat and stepped towards Entei, "What are you doing here?" She asked, though her voice sounded like demanding.
"I have come for you." Entei replied, simply.
Delia gasped, shocked.
"You are mama." Entei used his powers to hypnotize Ember's mother.
Delia's eyes suddenly went blank, she was hypnotized, "Take me to her. Take me to my child." She said, in a trance and then fainted forward.
Entei caught Delia on his back and started to run back to the mansion. Tesla grabbed onto Entei's tail, while Ember gave chase.
"Hey give her back!" Ember shouted.
Tesla tried to use her electricity to stop Entei, but Entei flung Tesla off his tail. Ember still gave chase, but Brock grabbed her to stop her from going through the crystalized field. She struggled as he held a tight grip on her.
"You don't know what's out there." he said.
Ember began to cry out of frustration as she fell to her knees with Brock beside her. He hugged her, trying to calm her down. Misty gave Togepi to Lisa and ran to Ember's other side. She knelt down and hugged her. Ember trembled as tears came down her cheeks while Misty rubbed her back. She felt so helpless. She couldn't stop that Entei from taking her mother.
Back at the Pokémon center, Prof Oak, Schuyler and the gang were discussing about Entei and the Unown being inside the Hale mansion.
"The Unown are psychic type Pokémon, right Professor?" Ember asked.
"Yes they are." Prof Oak replied.
"Call from Sabrina! Call from Sabrina!" Ember's Rotom phone rang.
Ember quickly took out her Rotom phone and pressed the answer button. Sabrina and her Alakazam appeared on the screen.
"[It has been a long time, Ember.]" she greeted.
"It sure has Sabrina," Ember smiled, "I called you because of what was happening here in Greenfield."
"[You were right to call me Ember,]" Sabrina said, "[I have heard stories about Prof Hale of Greenfield searching for the psychic type Pokémon called Unown.]"
"Do you know about Unown, Sabrina?" Prof Oak asked.
Sabrina nodded, "[Yes I do and it's not good. You see Unown have the ability to read thoughts of both people and Pokémon. And they have the power to make someone's thoughts a reality.]"
Schuyler paled when he heard that, "The Unown were with Molly before everything started happening." He explained, the encounter he saw, "She looked happy, slightly."
"[Then the Unown are behind all of this,]" Sabrina stated, "[I fear that Molly and the Unown had made a connection with each other like a bond. All of the crystallization that's happening in Greenfield is probably the imagination of Molly Hale come to life.]"
Prof Oak, Schuyler, the gang, Lisa, Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy were surprised by what Sabrina had said.
"Would the Unown be responsible for the disappearance of Prof Hale?" Schuyler asked.
"[There is a good chance that they are,]" Sabrina replied, "[Unown are the type of Pokémon that hate being disturbed by humans. So since Prof Hale and his wife were researching the Unown when they disappeared, the Unown must have got upset and made them vanish.]"
"By where exactly to?" Schulyer asked.
"The Unown Dimension." Ember spoke up.
"What? Unown Dimension?" Schuyler questioned.
"Unown are extremely rare Pokémon that lives in its own dimension and rarely ventures outside. When it moves to the Pokémon World, Unown tends to stick to wall like engraving of ancient text or orbit other Unown." Ember explained.
Professor Oak was flabbergasted by this information, "Where did you hear that from?" He asked.
"Keiko." Ember replied.
"Ah." Prof. Oak understood.
"So all of this is the Unown's fault." Schuyler stated.
"Thanks for your help, Sabrina." Prof Oak thanked the Saffron Gym Leader.
"[My pleasure. Good luck.]" Sabrina said.
Ember nodded back and Sabrina finished the phone call.
A sound was heard and Professor Oak looked at the computer seeing an email.
"Um, an email." Professor Oak said, clicking it open.
It was a video message from Molly Hale herself.
"[Mama, Papa and me wants to stay by ourselves forever so stay away!]" Molly declared, "[Everybody leave us alone!]" The video ended.
"Molly." Schuyler said, shocked by the email message.
"Did she just say that her mother and father were with her?" Professor Oak asked, once again, making sure he heard right.
"But that's not right." Misty frowned, "Professor Hale is missing just like her mother."
"Indeed."
Ember looked down, sadly knowing what Molly meant by that. 'Mom...' She thought, looking towards the mansion. She watched as the crystallization was spreading even further. She knew that it would reach the Pokémon Centre soon.
"We need to go and now." Ember spoke up.
"Huh?"
"We need to save not just my mother but Molly too, if what Sabrina was saying is true... Molly is in more danger and I'm not going to let that happen." Ember declared.
"I agree with you, Ember." Misty agreed.
"Me too." Brock agreed as well.
Prof. Oak sighed, "Okay, Ember, Misty and Brock I entrust this rescue mission to you three. But do be careful when you're inside that mansion. There's no telling what will happen once you're in there."
Ember turned to Lisa, "Lisa, what's your Pokégear number?"
Lisa handed the number to Ember and she put it in her Rotom phone.
"Now we can use contact each other while we're in the mansion." The gang headed off for the Hale mansion at once.
"Please bring Molly out safely." Schuyler pleaded.
"I promise." Ember declared.
The gang had come to waterfall that was close to the Hale mansion.
"If we get up this waterfall, we should be in the garden of the mansion." Brock said.
Ember released Rory from his Pokéball and used him to lift the gang up the waterfall. Ember switched her Pele, Chomper and Yoru for her Rory, Dragonite and Natsu back at the Pokémon center; she figured she might need some of her strongest Pokémon for this mission.
Right now the gang had entered the garden of the Hale mansion.
"Hey look," Misty pointed to the garden pond, "the water hasn't been crystalized."
"You're right," Ember said, "Maybe the Unown can't crystalize everything."
Brock pointed to the garden house in the garden. "Schuyler said that we could get into the mansion through that." he commented. He sent out his Vulpix, and used flamethrower on the crystalized door on the garden house to make a hole.
Next Misty used her two Poliwhirls to use water gun to keep the hole open. Brock returned Vulpix and then one by one Tesla, Misty, and Brock used the water gun to get through the hole. Ember picked up the Poliwhirls and jumped through the hole with them before the hole closed.
"Phew," Misty sighed in relief and returned her Poliwhirls, "Now I know what an Aqua Jet feels like."
"Okay let's get going." Ember said.
The gang got into the mansion easily thanks to the garden house. They were now in the main hallway. Once they started walking up the stairs, the stairs and hallway suddenly changed into a room of crystal pillars, with floating crystal stair steps.
"What's going on?" Brock gasped.
"The Unown must be creating a new reality." Misty replied.
"Now's not the time to worry about that," Ember said, "We need to concentrate of finding mum and Molly."
They ran up the stairs all the way to a big hole in the ceiling. When they got through the hole, they came to a beautiful field full of grass, trees and wild flowers.
"Where are we?" Misty asked.
"This must be part of Molly's dream world created by the Unown." Brock replied.
Suddenly, Entei and Molly arrived to the field where Ember and the gang were.
"You three are Pokémon trainers right?" Molly asked as she got off Entei, "So let's have a Pokémon battle."
"I don't have the time to battle you!" Ember shouted, "Where's my mother?"
"Easy Ember," Brock calmed her down, "By any chance is your name Molly Hale?"
"Yes that's right." Molly replied.
"Brock that can't be Molly," Misty whispered, "She's too old."
"Don't forget the Unown can create anything that Molly wishes." Brock pointed out.
"So which one of you three are going to battle me?" Molly asked.
Ember was about to say she would but Brock interrupted her.
"I'll battle you Molly," he said, "Ember, you and Misty keeping searching for Delia. And I'll battle Molly."
Ember agreed with the plan and she and Misty went up the crystal stairs, leaving Brock to battle Molly.
Later Ember and Misty had arrived at another area of Molly's dream world. They had now come to a beach that had red flowers growing on a grassy area. Just then the dream Molly turned up.
"Which one of you trainers wish to battle this time?" she asked.
"I guess Brock couldn't beat her." Misty said.
Entei appeared. "Molly cannot be beaten." he said.
Ember knew that Entei was an illusion too. She was about to accept Molly's battle request, when Misty said that she would battle.
"And who are you?" Molly asked.
"I'm Misty, a water Pokémon trainer and I am also one of the gym leaders of Cerulean City." Misty replied.
Then Molly transformed into a pre-teen, the same age as Misty. Ember and Misty were surprised with what they just saw.
"The real Molly must still be up in the mansion with your mum," Misty whispered to Ember, "You go and find them while I battle Molly."
Ember nodded and ran up the crystal stairs again. Both Misty and Molly agreed to a water Pokémon battle.
Ember was still running up the crystal stairs, until at last she came to another hole in the ceiling.
'Please let this one be where mum is.' Ember thought, pleaded.
When she got through the hole, she was now in the crystal tower, where Delia and Molly were.
"Mum!" Ember shouted, running over to Delia.
"Ember, is that you?" Delia asked.
Ember came over and hugged her mom, "Of course it's me. Are you all right?"
Delia returned the hug, "Yes I'm fine." She assured her.
The two separated and Ember noticed Molly sleeping in Delia's lap.
"That's the real Molly right?" She asked.
"Yes." Delia replied.
Ember explained to Delia about the Unown and their power to make someone's imagination into a reality.
"All of this crystallization was created by Molly's imagination," Ember stated, "that Entei that brought you here mum was also created by the Unown. We think that the Unown are responsible for Prof Hale's disappearance and his wife's too."
Delia was surprised by what her daughter had said.
"Come on Mum," Ember said, "We have to get out of here and get Molly out of here too."
"I agree." Delia agreed.
Delia woke Molly up. "I was dreaming Mama," Molly said, "I dreamt that I was a Pokémon trainer and I was in a Pokémon battle."
"Listen to me Molly," Delia instructed, "I'm sorry Molly, but I am not your real mama. I am really Ember's mother."
Molly noticed that Ember was in the room.
"Nice meeting you Molly," Ember greeted, "Do you remember me Molly? I played with you a lot a few years ago."
"We have to get out of here now Molly." Delia said.
"I won't," Molly refused, "No!"
At that moment the Unown began to use their power again and big sharp crystals shot through the floor in the room. The big sharp crystals separated Ember from Delia and the crystals trapped them like prisons. Ember found her mom unharmed in front of some crystal shears.
"Mum, you okay?" Ember asked.
"I'm fine." Delia assured her.
Delia noticed Molly's book next to her and saw a picture of the same sharp crystal points that were surrounding them now.
"Molly has become very depressed." she said to Ember.
"You're right and the Unown are responding to her sadness," Ember agreed, "Molly has no idea what she and the Unown are doing."
Ember saw an gap between the crystal, "Come on, mom, this way."
Delia stared at Molly, but she needed to leave and she stood up, walking towards the gap area.
Molly opened her eyes, "Uh..." She saw Delia leaving.
Entei appeared behind Molly, "What is it Molly?" He asked.
Molly looked at her 'father', then back at Ember, "Papa, that girl is trying to take mama away." She told them, sadly.
Entei saw that Ember was trying to help Delia through the crystal and he couldn't allow that to happen, so he used a giant crystal, separating Delia from Ember and Tesla.
"Ah! Ember!" Delia called out. "Help!"
"Mom! Mom!" Ember shouted out, worriedly.
Entei stepped forwarded, "Leave her here and leave this place." He told them.
Ember twitched, she turned facing Entei, "We're not leaving my mother here." She told them. "She's my mother."
"No, now she's Molly mother." Entei told them.
"No she isn't and I'm not leaving without her!" Ember yelled.
"She's staying here. Leave this place or you'll be force to leave." Entei announced.
"Try it. We're not leaving her here." Ember sent out her shiny Gyarados to battle Entei.
"You're a fool," Entei stated, "You think that you can defeat me?"
"I'm not going to be beaten to an illusion like you." Ember declared.
Since Entei was a fire type, Ember commanded Rory to use hydro pump. Entei fired a fire blast at the hydro pump. The fire blast went right through the hydro pump and hit Rory. Rory got hurt from that attack and Ember returned him.
"You still think that I am an illusion?" Entei taunted.
Ember sent out Dragonite next.
"Use Hyper Beam." She ordered.
Dragonite shot an orange-yellow beam at Entei who countered it with flamethrower. The flamethrower overpowered the hyper beam and struck Dragonite. Ember returned her.
"Now do you believe that I am no illusion?" Entei questioned.
"No I don't!" Ember shouted, "You're just an Entei that had been dreamed up by Molly!"
"You are wrong, Ember!" Molly yelled.
The Unown's power was building up by the minute.
"I am no illusion!" Entei shouted, "I am this girl's father, and I must protect her!"
Entei started to charge at Ember, but Tesla stepped forward and attacked Entei with thunderbolt. Entei fought back with flamethrower, and soon Entei and Tesla were in a fight. Molly was looking at the fight in fear; she still didn't understand what was happening around her. Delia turned to Molly.
"You must stop this Molly," she said, "and think about your real mama and papa."
Entei and Tesla were still battling each other. Just then Entei blew a fire blast, which caused a small explosion, made a hole in the crystal tower and sent Ember and Tesla flying through the hole. As Ember and Tesla were falling towards the ground, Ember quickly released Natsu to help them. Natsu caught them easily and flew back into the crystal tower. Delia was relieved that Ember was okay when she saw her.
"Is this another one of your Pokémon?" Entei asked, once he saw her shiny Charizard.
"That's right," Ember replied, "I have a lot of Pokémon that are my friends and family."
"Then I shall defeat your family." Entei declared.
Natsu roared and got ready to face Entei. Entei tackled Natsu and made him fall to the ground. Ember lost her footing back by the force and nearly fell out of the tower, when two hands grabbed her. It was Brock and Misty; they had arrived to where Ember was.
"Hold on Ember!" Misty yelled.
"Yeah, we won't let you fall." Brock assured her.
"Thanks guys." Ember thanked them after they pulled her to safety. Then she also noticed Team Rocket. "What are you guys doing here?"
The three chuckled nervously.
"Oh well..." Jessie trailed off
"You see..." Meowth trailed off.
"It's really really simple." James said.
"If anything happened to you, we be out of show business." Meowth stated.
Ember turned to Molly. "If you come with us Molly, you can have real Pokémon."
The crystal Flaffy, Teddiursa and Phanpy appeared in front of Molly.
"I already have real Pokémon," Molly declared, "Now go away!"
Entei fired flamethrower at the gang, but Misty and Brock dodged while Ember jumped onto Natsu's back.
"We should take this battle outside that way no one can get hurt." Ember suggested while riding on Natsu's back.
Natsu flew out of the crystal tower and Entei ran all over the crystalized mansion.
"We mustn't hold back on this battle, Natsu. We need to get Molly out of this crazy mansion." Ember stated.
Entei and Natsu started throwing flamethrower at each other.
"Listen to me, Entei," Ember pleaded, "It's not right for Molly to stay here. If you truly care about her you must let her go."
"As her father I will do as she wishes!" Entei declared.
Trying to reason with Entei wasn't easy for Ember.
While Ember and Natsu were fighting Entei, Delia tried to reason with Molly. "Molly you have to stop this," She said to her, "that Entei is not your real father."
"You're wrong!" Molly shouted.
"Listen!" Delia shouted, "Did Spencer Hale behave like Entei is doing? Getting into fights and try to bring harm towards other people?"
Molly gasped after hearing what Delia had just said and started to remember what her real father was like.
Meanwhile Ember and Natsu were still fighting Entei. Right now they were dealing with some sharp crystal spikes.
"Use Steel Wing to cut through the spikes, Natsu." Ember ordered.
Natsu's steel wing attack did well against the crystal spikes, but Entei suddenly appeared in front of them on a crystal spike and attacked them with a flamethrower. Ember and Natsu crashed straight into the crystal tower, where everyone was. Ember fell off Natsu's back and rolled a few feet away. Entei pressed his paw on Natsu's neck.
"Please Entei, don't!" Ember pleaded.
"This will end it!" Entei charged up his attack when...
"Stop!" Molly yelled.
Entei stopped his attack. Molly ran up to Entei and hugged his leg.
"Please, no more fighting! Please Papa. No more." Molly pleaded and began to cry.
Entei stepped away and Natsu sat up. Ember quickly got up and went over to her shiny Charizard.
"You okay, Natsu?" Ember asked.
Natsu growled softly and nuzzled against her cheek. Ember smiled and rubbed his head. Then she turned to Molly.
"You'll be a great Pokémon trainer in the future, Molly." She said.
"I agree because you care about Pokémon very much and you've got good instincts." Brock said.
"Yeah and if you ever want to, I'm sure you might make a great gym leader in the future." Misty agreed.
"You see Molly, we always battle hard but we always make friends. Because we all love Pokémon." Ember winked.
"Rai Raichu." Tesla nodded.
"Come with us Molly." Ember said.
"In the real world the battles may be hard. Just like you and I battled." Misty said.
"But the friends are real." Brock said, "What do you say?"
Molly was unsure and she looked at Delia.
Delia nodded, "It's just, what your papa would want." She held out her hand.
Molly walked towards Delia and reached her hand and she grabbed it, she held it against her face with happy tears, "I want things real again." She said.
Outside the crystal lotus petal were opening back up and retracted back down.
Molly's dreamed up crystal Pokémon, Flaffy, Teddisura and Phanpy disappeared.
Entei started to walk away.
"Papa?" Molly called out.
"I was created to be the father that can make you happy here." Entei told her, "If you would be happier outside, in the real world... I must go."
Everyone watched.
"Rai!" Tesla's ears twitched.
Suddenly crystal spikes appeared in the room, like crazy.
Natsu got in the air to avoid the spikes as Ember quickly ran over to Delia, Molly, and the others.
"What's going on?" Delia asked, holding Molly close to her.
"It's the Unown," Ember answered, "The Unown are losing control with the amount of psychic power they used. We need to get to them now to stop it." She said.
Entei destroyed some crystal spikes and fired a Flamethrower towards a exit hole. "This way!" He told them.
"This way." he said.
"Natsu, carry Molly." Ember said as she put Molly on his back while she, Delia, and the others ran down the stairs. Team Rocket followed too.
Ember quickly called Prof. Oak from her Rotom phone.
"Professor Oak, we have a problem!" Ember's voice came through Lisa's PokéGear.
"[Its the Unown. They have generated so much Psychic energy that they are unable to control it anymore.]" Professor Oak explained with a grimace look.
"[The crystallization is heading this way.]" Schuyler explained.
"[You must get out of there or you will be trapped forever.]" Prof. Oak ordered.
"Got it!" Ember said before she hung up.
Delia, the gang and Team Rocket made it to the room where the Unown were. Molly clenched Delia's skirt in fear looking at the Unown.
"We need to stop them." Brock said.
Suddenly the Unown's power started to go crazy once again and more crystals started to appeared allow with spikes, surround them.
"This is a very dangerous situation." Jessie spoke up.
"Well, whenever the going gets tough, Team Rocket gets going." Meowth said.
James agreed, "On the double but we can't leave." He pointed out as the door was blocked by crystals.
Team Rocket wailed.
"ROARRRR!" A familiar sound was heard.
Entei's Flamethrower blasted through the crystal wall and he appeared in front of them.
Molly smiled when she saw the legendary volcano Pokémon.
"Molly." Entei spoke up.
"Huh?" Molly blinked.
"I was happy and proud to be your father, the last thing I could do for you is, to take you out of this place."
"But how?"
"I was born from your dream... If you believe in me, there is nothing I cannot do!" Entei declared and he charged towards the Unown and fired a Flamethrower.
The Flamethrower destroyed the crystal below and some of the spikes that was blocking the Unown.
Entei charged it once more and he held his ground as he continued to charge towards it.
"Papa!" Molly shouted out.
"Molly! Help me!" Entei told her.
Ember looked at Molly, "Molly, you have to believe in Entei, believe in Entei that he will stop the Unown and he will." She told the little girl.
Molly stared fearfully at the Unown and her blue eyes shook.
"Believe in me, if that is what you wish."
"YOU CAN DO IT ENTEI!" Molly shouted, with courage.
"Molly." Entei gritted his teeth.
"Natsu, Flamethrower! Tesla, Thunder!" Ember ordered.
Natsu launched a Flamethrower and Tesla fired a Thunder attack, all the attacks hits the barrier of the Unown.
The Unown Psychic Powers were growing even more.
Entei continued to charge and he was able to make a opening in the barrier, "MOLLY!" He roared out and fired a Hyper Beam attack towards the Unown.
The Hyper Beam attack hit the centre of the Unown power and the ball of light, exploded, releasing bright light, making everyone cover their eyes.
The Unown stopped moving and they separated.
"Molly." Entei voice was heard.
"Uh, huh?" Molly blinked and she looked up.
Everyone looked up seeing Entei floating with a green outline around him.
"I must go now Molly."
Molly run up to her 'father', "Entei, I'm gonna to miss you." She told him.
"And I will miss you. Just keep me close in your dreams." Entei closed his eyes and he became crystallized and he disappeared in small particles.
Molly stared, as her eyes shook, "... Papa..." She said.
As Entei disappeared, the Unown started to fall and a portal opened up from where the Unown came through and from it the wooden tiles of the Unown fell from the portal and onto the ground, they all began to glow and they all disappeared into particles themselves.
When the tiles disappeared all the Unown began to fly into the portal, when they all did a bright light appeared before disappearing and a slight power was released, everything started to change back from crystal to normal once again.
Outside, the mansion started to reconvert back to their original looks and appearance, the mansion was seen once again and the magic of de-crystal started to spread throughout Greenfield.
Back at the mansion, the gang, Delia and Molly all went outside Hale mansion and saw that everything was back to normal.
"You were right about Greenfield." Ember smiled.
"I told you it was beautiful." Misty said.
"And its real." Brock agreed.
"Truly." Delia smiled.
"Rai Raichu!" Tesla cooed.
"Toge Toge!" Togepi smiled.
Then they all heard a car horn. Everyone looked from the road of Hale's mansion, police cars and others heading their way.
"Great job! Everything is back to normal!" Professor Oak waved at them from the car.
Molly smiled seeing them, she looked up into the sky and gasped.
In the sky, a cloud was in the shape of Entei.
"Thank you Entei." Molly said.
The cloud shape of Entei disappeared back into a normal cloud shape.
"Rai." Tesla jumped in front of Molly.
"Let's go Molly, to see everyone." Ember said.
"Yeah, they were really worried about you." Brock said.
Molly nodded, "Okay." She smiled.
"Molly." Schuyler said, as soon as he exited the car.
"Young miss." The butler hugged the little girl.
The three maids were there and each hugged Molly.
Ember hugged her mom as she hugged her back.
So with Greenfield back to normal again and Molly safe and sound, Schuyler and the butler and three maids thanked everyone for their help. Ember sent Rory, Dragonite, Natsu, Bulbasaur, Eirwen, Lurantis, Alakazam, and Philotes back to the lab and brought back her Psyche, Chomper, Yoru, Pele, Orin and Bella. Lisa bid farewell to the gang and set out on her journey, while the gang set out on their journey. Molly thanked the gang for all of their help before they left, and Prof. Oak and Delia went back to Pallet Town.
Ember knew that Molly would be okay now. She knew that the Unown returned her parents back to the real world and that she'll be reunited with them once more. Also Molly would get a Teddiursa and a Phanpy. Molly had a real happy future ahead of her.
