The beginning of the end


The day was bright in Paldea...several fletchling chirping happily as the hopped around on the green grass while pawmi, pawmo, and a pawmot watched on from the sides. Bright sun shine, fresh air, nothing could be more pleasant for the pokemon of the Paldea region...no worries, no bad weather, no-

A rumbling in the distance suddenly caught the Pawmot's attention, the electric fighting type getting to its feet as the other pokemon froze...the more experienced Pawmot waiting, listening as the wind bristled his fur...another rumbling, a sky crash perhaps? There were no sky tears falling but then where was the rumbling coming from? The pawmot took a step forward, ushering the younger pokemon behind him...there was a chill in the air...a chill that wasn't there before

Near the cliffside, a young trainer backed away from the opened cave...he was interested in seeing what the glowing purple thing was...he had not intended to just break it...and when it did break, the young trainer felt something awful blow through the air...something truly terrible, this cave should never have been opened

The dark grass type, Wo-chien blearily opened its eyes at the glaring sunlight...it had no recollection of what happened after the king's kingdom fell to ruin from self destruction...what it did know was that it was finally awake again and that the world must suffer for its transgressions, but first it need its siblings...Ting-lu the vessel of fear...Chi-yu, the bringer of envy...and Chien-pao, the blades of hatred. Slowly and methodically, the tablets of resentment made its way free of the cave before eyeing a trembling yet curious human child

The boy stared at the pokemon in front of him...both with fear and mild interest...he had NEVER seen a pokemon like this

The human held a strange device up at Wo-chein, the tablets of resentment blinking owlishly at the strange contraption as it centered in on the dark grass type

[Wo-chein...the ruinous pokemon...a man wrongfully sentenced by a cruel king let his resentment consume him and he became a pokemon...Wo-chein spreads its poisonous influence into the ground causing the destruction of forests and plains everywhere]

"oh oh no...I should not have touched that glowing thing"

Wo-chein narrowed its eyes at the human and several vines shot from the ground, trapping the boy's legs with thorny tendrils

This world will burn

The boy screamed as the thorns dug into his legs while the tablets of ruin approached him...

and you will be my harbinger

More vines shot from the ground as the boy stared in terror as the dark grass type approached him and...then the sound of some thing...a thick and heavy PAW! And then the boy looked down to see a panting Pawmot, growling angrily at the strange pokemon

Wo-chein shuddered after the dynamic punch connected...the dark typing made him weak to fighting types...but he was hardly phased despite the pawmot's strength

you can not stop what will happen...I am Wo-chein, the tablets of resentment...and this world has earned its destruction...when Ting-lu, Chein-Pao, and Chi-Yu are freed...there will be no dawn on the world of humans and pokemon

The pawmot angrily yelled back in its language before lunging with a thunder punch which was followed by another dynamic punch and then a wild charge...the attacks blasting against Wo-chien...yet the embodiment of resentment was hardly phased

if you wish to be a martyr...then so be it

The boy stared in horror as the tablets surrounding the back of the terrifying pokemon unlatched...and the last thing he saw was the brave pawmot being practically smothered by the stones...and then Wo-chien filled his vision

As I said...there will be no dawn for the world of human and pokemon
