Dustin Mercury Berlitz, who until now was once known as Commander Mercury, was recently killed by Team Galactic's leader Cyrus and upon his death he was able to meet another Dustin from another dimension. After a long talk the dimensional Dustin gave Mercury a goblet of red liquid which brought him back to life, but in return Mercury had to give him a small chunk of his soul so he could make a clone, so it can save the pok mon dimension from destruction. Now he has awoken from his early grave and now he's climbing towards the top of Mt. Coronet to stop his former boss from destroying his world.
As Dustin Berlitz climbed up the rocky mountain with winds as strong as a hurricane blowing against him, snow that sent shivers throughout his entire body, and thunder and lightning which could make a person go blind and deaf in an instant. The storm was getting worse he got higher up the mountain but he didn't care, he had one goal in mind to save everyone that he ever cared about. As he reached the half way point of the mountain, a thunder bolt hit a cliff side which he was right underneath and created a landslide. As boulders fell towards Dustin Berlitz he noticed a small green pok mon falling towards him as well. He paused and thought to himself if he should save the pok mon or continue on to Spear Pillar. As the small green pok mon dropped passed him he immediately jumped off and grabbed the pok mon, suddenly Dustin Berlitz landed on a small pathway and he quickly ran out of the way of the falling boulders with the small green pok mon in his hands. When the last of the boulders fell Dustin Berlitz looked towards the pok mon that he had saved, it was a Snivy.
"Well that was a close one wasn't, but how did a Snivy like you end up here in Sinnoh, Snivy's are only found in the Unova region." Dustin said to the Snivy, then he put it on the ground and started climbing up the mountain again, but then he felt something around his waist, he looked down and it was the Snivy using it's vine whip. Snivy pulled Dustin down onto the path and it jumped onto his head.
"So you want to come along, I won't stop you." he said to the Snivy while it lay on top of his head. Then the Snivy started to point in a certain direction on the path that they were on, Dustin thought to himself "this Snivy must be pointing the way to Spear Pillar".
After following the path for about thirty minutes Dustin had reached his destination. He walked up the stair only to see his cousin Dawn and her friend Lucas in the heat of a pok mon battle with Mars and Jupiter, and in the background he saw Cyrus using the red chain on Palkia and Dialga. He then took the Snivy off of his head and placed it on the ground, then he started to thank it for pointing him the way and he also told it to stay there, but as he walked away Snivy used its vine whip and pulled him back to it.
"Let me guess you want to come with me. I'm sorry but I already have six pok mon on me right now and I can't do anything about it right now." he said to the Snivy, but it didn't care it just went right back on to his head.
"Fine you win, and after this I'll let you join up with me if you want?" The Snivy nodded its head in approval, and then Dustin started to walk towards everyone. As he walked up the battle against Dawn, Lucas vs. Mars and Jupiter was over, his cousin had won. Mars and Jupiter started to freak out until they saw Dustin walking towards them, Dawn turned around to look at her cousin, she ran towards him and by the looks of things she was about to give him a hug until he gently pushed her out of the way.
"Mercury, where have you been and what aren't you wearing your Galactic jacket" Jupiter yelled out to him
"Mercury, Master Cyrus is almost done you have to hold these kids off for a few more minutes" Mars said to him.
"A few minutes, no problem." Dustin said while reaching for his Feraligatr's pok ball.
"Cousin please don't, we're so close to stopping Team Galactic. Don't you remember the letter?" Dawn pleaded to her cousin.
Dustin threw his Feraligatr's pok ball into the air and his Feraligatr came out and it was ready for a battle.
"Feraligatr you know what to do" Dustin paused for a second, "Feraligatr use Hydro Cannon!" he shouted out, and with that Feraligatr turned in the direction where Cyrus was standing and used its Hydro Cannon. The blast of water flew towards Cyrus and it had hit the red chain that was in Cyrus's hand and destroyed it.
"MERCURY WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" Mars and Jupiter yelled out at the exact same time.
"Mercury? Do you remember what I said when I first met you guys? The name's Dustin Mercury Berlitz and you better not forget it and I'm here to bring Team Galactic to justice!" He proclaimed
Cyrus then turned around and walked away from Palkia and Dialga and headed towards Dustin. Dustin returned his Feraligatr to its pok ball.
"You think that would stop me Berlitz scum. I, Cyrus leader of Team Galactic, have won; soon this world will be nothing but a memory." Cyrus proclaimed, but then Dustin and Cyrus sensed something, something that was very anger. Then suddenly a pitch black hole opened right behind Cyrus and a shadowy figure came out of it, Dustin knew it wasn't the dimensional Dustin because this thing was way bigger than a human. Before anyone knew what was going on the shadowy figure pulled Cyrus and Dustin into the black hole. As Dustin fell he held he grabbed the Snivy that was on his head and held it in his arms.
Later Dustin awoke in a world that he had seen before, it was his worlds Distortion world. He got up and noticed that his fathers Latios and Latias's pok balls and the Snivy were gone. Then suddenly he heard a voice coming from behind him, talking to him.
"So you're finally waking up, I must say you have grown a lot in these past eight years." Dustin turned around and saw the person talking to him was none other that his very own father, Paul Berlitz. Dustin walked over and gave him a hug then he started to cry out of joy for seeing his father in over eight years (excluding chapter 6). Dustin's father started asking him questions about why he was here, so Dustin told his father the whole story including what recently had happened.
After a couple of hours, Dustin finally finished telling his father what had happened.
"That dirty bastard, I told him to leave you out of this." Paul Berlitz said angrily
"Dad what are you talking about?" Dustin asked him
"That guy, that Dimensional Dustin, he was the reason that I met your mother, and he's the reason that I was trapped here. Now he has used you for his sick game. I don't know what his evil plans are but I bet you all the money in the world he's planning on something evil right now."
Meanwhile in the other dimensions Distortion world.
"Finally I'm finished creating the clone, now it's time for you to awaken." Dustin Whissel said to the clone, and then the clone opened his eyes
He continued.
"For now on you will be known as Mercury, you look exactly like the original except for your eyes, they are the same shade of brown before he drank the liquid, you also have all the memories of the original and somewhat the same personality, but you are your own person and that could change in due time. Before I send you off to these alternate realities, your appearance might change a little. One alternate reality your hair colour might change, and in another alternate reality you might pull a rule 63 and change into a woman, stupid internet. Anyway after you're finished I'll send you where ever you want so you can do what ever you want, ok?" the clone nodded, and Dustin Whissel continued again.
"Well it looks like your personality hasn't kicked in quite yet, but in due time you'll be as lively as ever. Now it's time to say our good byes and also good luck." and with that Dustin snapped his fingers and the Mercury clone vanished into thin air.
"I wonder how he would do." He said right before letting of a huge fart, he took a sniff "what, when did I have eggs?"
Now back to the plot.
"But dad he seemed nice, I mean he was able to bring me back to life after all." Dustin Berlitz told his father.
"Son do you know why there's a distortion world to begin with, there prison for the must evil creature in the universe, and he must he one of the evilest people in his whole dimension if was sent there. Anyway lets change the subject I don't want to be talking about him for hours on end."
"Ok that, I have two questions for you to answer then."
"Let me guess, did I take Latios and Latias. The answer is yes, they are my pok mon after all, and they other one is about that Snivy that was with you when you came here. I saw her jumping down to the lower levels of this world trying to find an exit."
"Ok then, wait did you say she?"
"No I said her but ya that Snivy is a female. What do you think I was doing when I worked for Professor Rowan, having tea and crumpets? Remember I worked for him for nearly ten years of my life before I joined Interpol, so I know a lot about a pok mon just by looking at it. But anyway we better hurry before Garatina shows up; recently it has gotten very angry."
"Well then, what are we doing just standing here? Let's get the hell out of here."
As Dustin and his father got lower in the distortion world they were able to hear a battle happening near the bottom, until they finally reached the bottom Dustin and his father saw Dawn finishing a pok mon against Team Galactic's leader Cyrus. They also watched as Garatina appeared and started to attack her. Dustin and Paul Berlitz started running towards the battle, but before they can do anything Dawn had thrown a Master Ball at it, but it bounced off.
"Dawn for some reason you can't catch it, it already belongs to someone." Paul Berlitz yelled out to her, as Garatina got ready for another attack it suddenly stopped and looked around like it heard a familiar noise. After a few seconds Dustin and only Dustin was able to hear it. It was the other Dustin in the other Distortion World telling Garatina to stop fighting and open the way out for them, Dustin Berlitz thought to himself that the other Dustin must be Garatina's trainer but how did he catch it? Then suddenly Garatina let out a loud roar and opened the way out of the Distortion World, everyone started heading towards the exit, but then Cyrus came up from behind and said.
"Why, why would that beast help you? This world is supposed to be a prison, but why is it letting you out?" As Cyrus walked towards everyone and the exit Garatina started to attack Cyrus.
"So I see how it is, this world is going to my prison now. Ok then, but before you go Mercury I have one request for you."
"What is it you scumbag?"
"Make your world as perfect as you can." then Cyrus walked away, never to be seen again. Dawn entered the exit first, then Dustin told his father to go a head of him and that he'll catch up, this father agreed and then he walked into the exit. Dustin waited for a while until he felt something poking his shoulder; it was the little Snivy that went looking for the exit.
"So that's where you were, I was waiting for you. Recently my father had taken his Latios and Latias back from me, so that means I can now have two new pok mon with me. So what do you say to you want to come along with me?" Dustin said to the Snivy as he knelled down so he could make eye contact. The Snivy nodded its head and then Dustin grabbed a spare pok ball that he had in his pants pocket and lightly tossed it and hit Snivy's head. The pok ball wiggled around three times the followed by a clicking sound. He had now caught his fifth pok mon. Then he walked into the exit and in a bright flash of light he was somewhere else, he looked around and he couldn't see his father or his cousin anywhere. By the looks of things and the scorching heat, he was probably inside a Mt. Stark.
