(As our next chapter begins, the skies emerge as if part of a story from the drawings of an ancient scroll as several Pokemon of all sorts from those found in Kanto to those residing in Paldea are soaring through the skies, swimming in the ocean, and running or trekking their way to other places on land. But, this chapter will focus more on the Sinnoh Region as we then pan over to Mt. Coronet where we see Arceus at its peak while it carries out its duties to watch over people and Pokemon until they live peacefully together in cooperation and harmony)

The exciting and wonderful world of Pokemon! A group of most unusual creatures that are ever-expanding, teeming with life and mystery beyond our wildest imaginations! While some can be found in the skies, some live in the water, and some live in the grasslands. However, amid such an abundance of life in our world, there is one Pokemon who existed long before all others: Arceus! And, to this day, Arceus, the Alpha Pokemon, is watching over people and Pokemon alike!

Trials of Sarah: The Movie - Arceus Chronicles

Monday, April 13th; it was time for the Hisui Festival to be held in Canalize City in the Sinnoh Region. After helping Billy, Harmony, and their Eeveelution partners deliver a raving first show in the Showman's Circus on Saturday in Honolulu and a wild high ride through Kumandra with Raya, Sisu, and their friends the previous day, Sarah, her family, and the rest of our heroes made their way to Canalize City where they'll be attending the Hisui Festival where they'll be joined in the festivities by the newest addition to the princess' family, Sisu and Pengu's baby sister and the youngest Kumandra dragon in their family: Jakanee.

As part of their resort vacation via a recommendation by Jane, our heroes, now joined by Jakanee the Kumandra Dragon, are in Canalize City in the Sinnoh Region. They're here as part of a makeshift Go Ahead/Education First tour experience that included research into the legend of Arceus to attend the Hisui Festival where they'll discover how the people of Sinnoh once lived in the distant past.

When they arrived at the Hisui Festival, they entered what looked like a recreation of what the city or town (Jubilife City/Jubilife Village from Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl and Legends Arceus) was like which was actually a village set in Medieval Japan or farther back in the day with the buildings in addition to the few market stands that were set up looking more like large Japanese Minka houses (the simple country-dweller homes that were most common in Japan until the coming of the 20th century). There was also a vast number of them coupled with a few stands that were set up for tasks such as crafting ancient Pokeballs, potions and antidotes for medical purposes, purchasing crafting materials, and so on.

"Wow!" breathed an awestruck Snowy as she looked around from her trainer's arms.

Jakanee gave an impressed whistle as she said, "Check it out, so many stands and strange houses... Kinda reminds me a little of Talon, to be honest."

"So, this is what Jubilife City was like back when it was just an ancient village when this region is called Hisui? Color me impressed," Blitz added from his human mother's right shoulder in agreement.

"It's a good thing Jane pulled a few strings to let us stay a week as well for the Hisui Festival when she got wind of it and I'm going to savor every minute of it as I record! This reproduction of Jubilife City when it was first named Jubilife Village is absolutely stellar! Imagine all of the Pokemon I could learn about that would've been part of this region back in the day, it'll be a databanks gold mine of the ancients for me!" Rotom-Dex buzzed, eager to see more of the festival as he went into a tizzy of excitement photographing the layout of Jubilife Village while the heroes went along.

"You're right, Rotom. I've heard from the entertainment committee taking part in it that it's a recreation of what a typical village back in the day would've looked like in Hisui. There were far less or no cities at all and more villages like this one, the land back then being mostly dominated by nature as some humans lived in these places for some time but away from the Pokemon," Lillie noted.

"It's like we're in a movie, this place looks totally awesome!"

"You're right there, buddy!" Ash and Pikachu gushed.

"Don't you two ever ramp up your vocabulary and stop throwing the world 'awesome' out there all the time? It gets a little grating on the ears after a while," Silvally remarked incredulously towards Ash and Pikachu with a raised eyebrow.

"But, we don't have ears, Ani," peeped Tou-Tou innocently.

"Technically, we do which is our RKS System, Tou-Tou. But, it's more of a human saying that even I sometimes lose track of the meaning of, if you catch their drift."

"So, you mentioned that this is what Hisui once looked like before it became Sinnoh on the cruise here. Right, Arrietty, Sho?" Kukui asked, soaking in the atmosphere of the recreated Jubilife Village.

Arrietty, feeling greatly sentimental as she looked around the recreated village, nodded as she explained, "Yes, the most well-known of these villages back in the day is Jubilife Village like the recreation we're in now long before it ended up growing into the Jubilife City you humans know today. A special organization was based there in the time of Hisui known as the Galaxy Expedition Team comprised of other people that migrated from other parts of the world to the region. Basically, they all came together to study Hisui and what it had to offer, being split into different groups. The most famous group out of all of them in the Galaxy Team is its scout regiment, the Survey Corps."

"Back then, the people in these villages also had stands such as that one selling candy, that one with items including Evolution Stones, and even that one selling crafting materials for old wooden Pokeballs by hand," Sho added while riding on his mother's head, seeing some of the stands that had been set up and scattered across the village.

"Whoa! They have Evolution Stones back then, too?"

"Making Pokeballs by hand?" Sophocles and Mallow gasped in surprise.

"And, they're made out of wood, too?" blinked Ollie in disbelief, looking just as surprised as the former two.

Sho nodded with a smile as he then said, "Back then, the people also had Pokeballs that were very different from the ones you humans today were used to which include Feather Balls that are used to catch nimble Pokemon or those that fly high in the air, a previous interpretation of the Heavy Ball that's used to catch unsuspecting Pokemon instead of actual heavy ones, and upgraded versions of both balls including Wing Balls, Leaden Balls, and the best ones out of both types: Jet Balls and Gigaton Balls. They even make homemade Smoke Bombs that help them catch Pokemon if they prove difficult to tame."

"The upgraded Heavy and Leaden Balls are crafted depending on the ranks of trainers in each corps," Arrietty clarified.

"Hold up, homemade smoke bombs and Pokeballs crafted depending on a trainer's rank in the Galaxy Team's Scout Regiment?"

"Up top!" Izzy (Green DF Ranger) and Javi remarked, sharing an excited high-five.

"Wow, I know this Hisui Festival to be such an event but this recreated village is very busy if it has this many people attending," Zayto admitted, seeing all of the people attending the Hisui Festival.

"I'll say. Look at all of these Earth people coming in, some of them in all those Japanese kimonos and funky outfits. We didn't have fashion like that back home on Rafkon when it was still around," Aiyon added in awe as he gazed upon everything the recreated Hisui village had for the group to enjoy.

"Living in the past may have been a drag but given the history and culture offered to us regarding Hisui and the Pokemon and people of old, I wouldn't mind a trip back in time for that," Solon said in agreement, also amazed as she looked around and was equally greeted by the kids and younger Pokemon with hugs and excited hellos, much to her amusement.

"Hey, honey!"

"Sport!"

"Ash! Everybody!"

"Hey, guys!"

Everybody turned to where four voices spoke up and there, to their left by another array of stands was another one of Ash's close friends and travel companions: Dawn, and her main partner, Piplup. The two are joined by Johnathan and Diane along with Romeo and Juliet, the three humans in traditional Hisui clothing as their partners greeted them warmly.

"Hey, it's Dawn!" Ash cried with a smile.

"Piplup!" Pikachu cheered, sharing a high-five with Piplup as the others joined them with Blitz greeting his human-grandparents-in-law's Emotion and Blade Pokemon and the pair returning it to him.

"Long time no see, buddy!" Piplup remarked to Pikachu with a smile.

"Mom!" "Pops!" James and Nikki gasped.

"Hi, honey, surprised to see us?" smiled Diane, winking at Nikki.

"Sir Johnathan, Ms. Diane!"

"What are you doing here?" Tsukumaro and Sarah inquired.

"Sure has been a while, hasn't it?"

"Sure has, it's great to see you again" Dawn and Ash bantered happily.

"You should've told me you were coming and I didn't know you were hanging out with actual royalty from Alola's past, you surprised me!" Dawn laughed before she got Sarah's attention. "So, you're the famous Sun Princess we've been hearing about a lot lately. My name's Dawn and this is Piplup!"

"Your Majesty," Piplup said with a bow towards the princess.

"That's me, nice to meet you, Dawn. I've heard about you from Ash ever since I went to school with him," Sarah nodded, sharing a handshake with Dawn before she introduced her family.

"This is my entire family including all the Pokemon and Dragons with me including my real mom and dad: Delilah and Doug Tomoe, my boyfriend: Race Konami, my in-laws that took care of me: Nikki and James, my godfather: Tsukumaro Wong, my sister: Asha, and my real grandparents: David and Donna Tomoe. With me here are my pets: the Dragonstone Patrol including Harmony, Jazz, Aurora, Meadow, Zoey, Cam, Arcia, Brooke, Mei, Blue, Axe, Trooper, Barley, Hayden, Heart, and Tail; the Cat Pack: Wild, Rory, Shade, and Leo; and my pet Dachshund: Liberty. The giant beings with us here are the Six Spirits of Harmony: Sol, Rajhu, Zhjiben, Ashia, Jhayli, and Nuraiah."

"Hey, what's up? I'm Race. This here's Robbie and Bella, my Pikachu and Mimikyu, and these kittens with me are my Kitten Rescue Soldiers, the KRS: Tommy, Chuckie, Phil, Lil, Kimi, and Dil," Race added as his Pokemon partners and kittens greeted in turn.

"Hello, Dawn! My name's Mallow and this is Tsareena and Shaymin."

"I'm Lana and these here are Primarina and Sandy."

"Sophocles and my partners are Togedemaru and Vikavolt."

"I'm Kiawe and with me are my partners: Turtonator and Pyroar. Nice to meet you."

"It's an honor to meet you, Dawn. My name is Lillie and this is my partner, Snowy," the Pokemon School gang introduced as their Pokemon also greeted Dawn and Piplup.

"Greetings/Hi!"

"Hello there!/What's shaking, babies?"

"Hi, hi, hi~!/How do you do?"

"Nice to meet you, ladies/Pleasure."

"Hello!"

"It's nice to see you, too! You all look great!" Dawn chuckled before she noticed the three Power Ranger teams and their other friends before her and her Water Type partner. "Oh, and who's this?"

"Hello, I'm Zayto and these two with me are Solon and Aiyon. The other four with us are our friends from Pine Ridge: Ollie, Amelia, Izzy, and Javi," Zayto smiled.

"Hi, I'm Casey. This is Lily, Theo, R.J., Dom, Jarrod, and Camille," added Casey warmly as his friends greeted Dawn and Piplup.

"Devon, it's a pleasure to meet the Runner-Up of the Sinnoh Grand Festival and her partner. These here are Zoey, Ravi, Nate, Steel, and our Beast Bots: Cruise, Jax, and Smash," Devon smiled as he introduced himself and his friends and the Beast Bots.

"Hello, Dawn. My name's Sunny, Sunny Starscout, and these are Hitch Trailblazer, Izzy Moonbow, Zipp Storm, and Pipp Petals. The others with us are Edge Blade, Tempest Sparkle, Glimmer Glow, Snowdrop Winterfell, Discord, Twilight Sparkle, Rainbow Dash, Applejack, Fluttershy, Pinkie Pie, Rarity, Princess Celestia, Princess Luna, and Cadence," Sunny began as she introduced herself and the rest of the Equestria team.

"Hey, what's up? I'm Hiccup and this here's Zenna."

"And, these Night Furies are our dragons, Toothless and Stryka," Hiccup and Zenna replied, introducing themselves and their faithful companions as they gave happy warbles.

"My name's Astrid, this here's Stormfly."

"Hi, I'm Fishlegs and this is my dragon, Meatlug. She's really nice once you get to know her."

"Hey, dudette! I'm Snotlout and this is my Monstrous Nightmare, Hookfang!"

"Tuffnut!"

"Ruffnut!"

"And, this is our dragon: Barf and Belch!" the rest of the Viking teens added as their dragons gave greeting warbles to Ash's old friend and her partner.

"My name's Gobber."

"And, I'm Stoick the Vast, Chief Viking of our home, Berk," Stoick and Gobber continued, bowing to Dawn.

"Greetings, Ms. Dawn. My name's Edgar, Edgar Fiersome."

"And, I'm his wife, Henna. We're Zenna's parents," Edgar and Henna said warmly.

"Hi, Dawn, Piplup. My name's Ryder and I'm from Adventure Bay along with my pups and our friends, the PAW Patrol: Chase, Skye, Marshall, Zuma, Rubble, Rocky, Coral - Skye's cousin, Tracker, Everest, Sweetie from Barkinburg, Tuck, Ella, and Rex."

"I'm Marena and these are my friends; Cyrus, Snowfall, Glory, Ruby, Jewel, Sequioa, Coral, Moorhen, Thorn and her adoptive children; Qibli, Smolder, Blaze." Marena added.

It was then that Dawn's Piplup and Sarah's Piplup took notice of each other as the Jungle Penguin Pokemon joined up with Dawn's partner as the former greeted, "Hey, what's up?"

"How's it going?" Sarah's Piplup smiled back.

"Nice to finally meet you all! As I said, Ash, you should've told me you were all coming! You surprised me when you showed up!" Dawn chuckled.

"Well, you, Johnathan, and Diane surprised us, right?" Ash chuckled back before he turned to the Pokemon School Gang.

"Right!" Lana, Mallow, Lillie, Kiawe, and Sophocles smiled before Kiawe took notice of what the trio are wearing.

"Uh, Dawn, what are you Sarah's in-laws wearing, exactly?" the Fire Type student quizzed.

"Pretty cool, huh? We just borrowed them," Dawn laughed, showing off her outfit to the heroes.

"Awesome stuff!" Ash cheered.

"State of the art from the times, only the best from Hisui!" Dawn's Piplup bragged, doing two twists and then mirroring Dawn's pose.

"That's actually kinda cool," Sarah's Piplup admitted with a smile and a nod as Pikachu clapped for his old friend.

"Why don't you all borrow some clothes to fit in for the festival? I'm sure you'll all look great in what you find!" Dawn suggested to the heroes.

"Good idea!"

"I can't wait!"

"So cool!"

"This is going to be fun!"

"Totally!"

"And, maybe, we can have our picture taken with them on!" Ash and the Pokemon School gang agreed eagerly.

"What do you think?" Sarah asked her sister.

"Whatever floats your boat, I'm up for a Hisui makeover," Asha smiled, ruffling her little sister's hair.

"I'm game if you are," Race added.

"Sure, follow me!" Dawn smiled brightly before she led everybody to a nearby exhibition but not before Johnathan and Diane took a look at Asha and halted her and their children while the others went ahead.

"Oh, children, young lady!" Johnathan called, causing Nikki, James, and Asha to stop and turn to him, Diane, Romeo, and Juliet with Rajhu staying behind as he saw what was going on and knew what was about to happen.

"Excuse me, miss, but haven't we met before? You look a little familiar," Diane added, coming up to Asha.

Nikki and James went pale with a sweatdrop; they and their in-laws had forgotten to tell Johnathan and Diane about their daughter being alive and what she had gone through because of Dr. Zin and her reincarnation via Rajhu along with her life in Dragonstone. Rajhu also gave a small wince of guilt as he had also forgotten to inform their parents about their granddaughter under his wing following his resurrecting of her until the scuffle with the Copycat, the Ladybird, and Harold. Between the three of them, they looked at each other in silent debate and eventually shared a nod, knowing that the two of them deserve to know the truth about Asha and her being their long-lost granddaughter.

While the trio and Asha did their best to ease Johnathan and Diane into a jaw-dropping revelation about the young woman, Dawn led everybody else into an exhibition tent and waved them over.

"Guys, over here! You can borrow whatever you like," she called before opening the entrance flap and revealing...

"Hello?" the Sinnoh Champion, Cynthia, peeped before she smiled at the company (while wearing a similar set of Hisui clothing for her size). "Hey, it's Ash! And, the Princess of Alola and her family and friends, too! Nice to see you all!"

"Ah!"

"It's her!"

"The Sinnoh Champion!"

"Cynthia!"

"Wow!"

"I can't believe it!" Ash and the Pokemon gang chirped in surprise and awe at seeing Cynthia in person (yet again in Ash's case with his other old friend).

"Cynthia, Sinnoh Champion, right? I'm Sarah, nice to meet you," Sarah smiled, sharing a handshake with the Sinnoh Champion.

"Doug, Doug Tomoe. My wife, Delilah, we're both our baby's parents by blood. A pleasure it is to meet you, Ms. Cynthia," Doug added as he and Delilah also shared a handshake with Cynthia.

"We'll stay out here given our size and we wouldn't want to cause any trouble for you inside that exhibition tent," Sol requested as his fellow spirits and the giant dragons nodded in agreement regarding their little handicap.

"Okay, but be sure not to spook anybody outside while we're in the tent," Sarah nodded as she and the rest of her family and friends went inside to join Dawn and Cynthia along with a now-shocked and tearfully-ecstatic Johnathan and Diane and Asha, Nikki, and James (the three of them and Rajhu now having told them everything and the two of them now gushing over their granddaughter).

"See, Cynthia has been really helpful throughout the preparations of the entire Hisui Festival and she's going to continue helping the entertainment committee run the festival throughout the whole week," Dawn put in as she joined Cynthia.

"Are you all here for a special field trip of fun and research on behalf of your staycation at Disney's Aulani resort as I heard from one of Kukui's old friends working there?" Cynthia inquired.

"Yeah/Yes," the gang, Ash, Sarah, and Asha (after introducing herself to the Sinnnoh Champion) nodded on behalf of everybody in their party.

"Sure do! And, I was hoping on learning more about the Pokemon that used to live in Sinnoh when it was still the Hisui Region, I can only imagine what it must've been like for them living there and what kinds that we never even knew about until now!" Rotom-Dex added in agreement, his sheer excitement still bubbling.

"This historical exhibit should be quite helpful and give you a good starting point to kick off your week in this festival. Have a good look around."

Pikachu and Bella hopped off of Ash and Race's heads while Curly and Blitz jumped off of Sarah's shoulders and Toothless and the other dragons joined them along with Piplup, all of them heading to a series of nearby glass cabinets that have ancient artifacts from Sinnoh's ancient past as Hisui, Ash and Dawn's partners squealing with delight at the sight of such historic relics.

Even Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit were impressed by what they saw as they happily chirped and then went to meet Cynthia and Dawn.

"Hello, Dawn, Cynthia," Azelf smiled at the pair.

"Azelf, Mesprit, Uxie! It's been so long!"

"The Lake Guardians! But, why are you all here?" Dawn (trainer) and Cynthia gasped in awe and amazement with bright smiles on their faces, remembering their old legendary friends.

"You can thank me for that. They're now part of my family after a little complication or two a few months ago at Poni Island," Sarah replied.

"Yep! She's a tough cookie and one with a big heart, too!"

"Y-Y-Yes. It's w-wonderful to s-s-s-see, you, a-a-again, D-D-Dawn, Cynthia," Mesprit and Uxie smiled.

"Hey, Cynthia? So, Ash and the others want to borrow some clothes for the festival!" Dawn (trainer) explained to the Sinnoh Champion.

"Of course!" Cynthia chuckled before Ash, the gang, Sarah, and both her adopted and blood families were all in similar outfits to their outfits moments later.

"Wow, you guys look great!" Dawn (trainer) gushed as everyone else marveled in their temporary clothing.

"This is, odd... To say the least, hmm," Tsukumaro commented, instead looking over his Hisuian attire awkwardly.

"Get used to it, Tsukumaro. That's exactly what people back then used to wear compared to your modern-day clothing," Arrietty smiled, giving Tsukumaro a gentle rub of his left upper arm.

"Hey, look on the bright side, it suits you!" quipped Sho cheekily.

"Then, you're all set! Now, allow me to be your guide!" Cynthia declared, opening a nearby door flap for the group.

However, it wasn't going to be all sunshine and rainbows later on for the group. While they were attending the Hisui Festival, at a mountain far from Calavine City, three Bronzor were summoned as they flashed brightly over the Legendary Lava Dome Pokemon, Heatran, as it roared in agitation at them assaulting it. It was actually being confronted by some familiar faces from Sinnoh's recent past with four of them summoning a trio of Golbat and a Toxicroak. The trainer the Toxicroak belonged to as it stepped forward was none other than Saturn, one of the three original field commanders of Team Galactic, accompanied by three Team Galactic grunts.

"Get it!" Saturn ordered as Heatran roared, the Golbat using Supersonic to deal some damage to the Lava Dome Pokemon before it climbed up a rocky wall and hung upside down as it used Rock Tomb in retaliation to knock their blocks off.

But, this was all in a plan for Saturn and the grunts with him to capture Heatran as he then ordered Toxicroak, "Now, use Dig!"

Heeding his master's orders, Toxicroak dug underground using Dig and struck Heatran from its current position, causing it to fall onto its back as it fell down which left it open for Saturn to throw a Dusk Ball towards the disorientated Legendary and capture it. Once it was captured, the Dusk Ball shook for a few moments before it clicked shut, signaling Saturn's success as the field commander activated an ear communicator he was wearing.

"G1 to G2, capture complete," he informed as he went to retrieve the Dusk Ball.

At what appeared to be the original Team Galactic headquarters, the receiver of Saturn's call replied, "This is G2, copy that. Return to base."

The receiver and her colleague entered what looked to be a laboratory as they witnessed what looked like a giant plate that was installed on a machine.

Meanwhile, at the historical exhibition tent, everybody witnessed an exhibit set up to feature the Hisui Region as Dawn asked, "That's Mt. Coronet, right?"

"Yes. With its brutal environment, it is thought by scientists back then and now to have had a large impact on everything in the surrounding area including Pokemon as you can see here," Cynthia confirmed, directing everyone to one of the images that had been set up which depict a Growlithe, a Braviary, and two other Pokemon from Hisui, one of them being more deer-like in appearance and the other being a large fish in the lake it was on with the former two sporting exotic looks. "Take a look at this image; that Pokemon on the right is a Growlithe and the one on the left is a Braviary. And, it's said that the other two are most likely the evolved forms of Basculin and Stantler."

"Ooh, ooh, ooh! I know! I know, we know! Those two there are the Hisuian forms of Braviary and Growlithe and those two with them are Wyrdeer and Basculegion!" Sho noted excitedly.

"Wyrdeer?"

"Basculegion?"

"Hisuian Growlithe and Braviary?" Dawn, Ash, and the Pokemon School Gang echoed curiously.

Arrietty chuckled as she nodded in agreement, "Yes, quite so. As my son pointed out, they are indeed Hisuian Pokemon and the ones shown in that image did look like that before they donned their current appearances. Hisuian Growlithes are mainly both Fire and Rock Types, Hisuian Braviary are primarily Psychic and Flying Dual Types, Wyrdeer are not just a mode of transportation to those that tame and befriend them but they're also Normal and Psychic Types, and Basculegion's classified as a Ghost Type as well as a Water Type."

As the Hisuian Zoroark explained, everybody looked at the aforementioned Hisuian Pokemon in greater detail; the Hisuian Growlithe stood at 2'07" in height but had dark red-orange fur and a light grey mane and curly tail with a tan-colored muzzle. Its fur was made out of igneous rock components and its mane covered its eyes while it extended below its head, ending at three curls. It had round and squared ears while having orange-red interiors and strangely, a horn on its head.

The Hisuian Braviary, while not flying, stood at 5'07" in height while having a gray and white feathered body and a jet-shaped tail along with wings shaped to resemble a white hand with black feathers jutting from underneath. The feather on its head took on a more regal appearance as it looked more like a hat and its plumes were changed to purple flames while having light blue eye markings.

Then, there was Stantler's evolved form of old, Wyrdeer, which stood a little taller at 5'11" in height as it looked like large a snow dear sporting a brown nose, black cloven hooves, furry bodies that were mostly gray with white spots, white fur on its lower legs and underside, its round tail, eyebrows, a mane which resembled a beard, and two furry tufts on the back of each leg. The large gold antlers that it sported were shaped similarly to radio antennae and each of them had a black orb resting at the base.

And, finally, there was Basculegion as it was a large green fish-like Pokemon that looked to be 9'10" long while sporting a jagged mouth that had pointed teeth in it, a spine aligned with a dark gray line with colored stripes flanking it from either side and extending around its gills, and spots along its torso while having smoke plumes emitting from its tail.

"Wow!"

"Amazing!"

"Cool!"

"Phenomenal!"

"Well, I'll be a Mankey's uncle..." Ash, Kiawe, Sophocles, Tsukumaro, and Doug cried in wonder while most of the girls breathed awestruck sighs with Pikachu doing impressions of the four aforementioned Pokemon which got a laugh out of many of the Pokemon but left Tou-Tou and Silvally a little creeped out.

"Just proves it, I'll never understand that rat's sense of impressionistic humor," Silvally grunted.

"Yeah..." Tou-Tou agreed, feeling awkward from Pikachu's impressions.

"Psychic Types...? MY SPECIES WERE ALSO PSYCHIC TYPES?!" shouted a starstruck Braviary until he deflated miserably. "Mmm, why did we Braviary have to be stuck being Flying Types?"

"I guess you can blame it on evolution limits, my friend. Even if you want to become a Psychic Type like your species' ancestors, that leaves you wide open to an assault from Bug Types and Ghost Types and those are no picnic," replied Raven as his fellow former Pokemon Hunting captives comforted the disappointed Valiant Pokemon while Rotom-Dex took pictures of the Pokemon in the image.

"If it makes you feel better, big guy, you're not the only one here with Hisuian ancestors. Historically, one of the Dragon Types that were common in our time, Sliggo and Goodra, were once Hisuian Pokemon and they were mainly Steel and Dragon Dual Types," Sho chirped with a knowing chuckle.

This left James and Goodra in shock as they blurted, "YOU MEAN TO TELL ME THAT I ACTUALLY HAVE AN ANCESTOR IN ANCIENT HISUI?!"

"You're saying that the Goomy line was not just purely Dragon Type?!"

"That's right, Hisuian Sliggo and Goodra in the day are known for having large shells on their backs similar to how a snail or, in your case a Magcargo, would've looked and for whenever they would have to hide themselves for added protection if they get scared," Arrietty confirmed.

"Oh, come on! Why do my ancestors have to get the best stuff for themselves?!" Goodra frowned as he gave a cute pout and angrily crossed his arms.

"But, your only weakness to Fairy Type attacks through evolution does make up for your ancestors' double fail from being twice as weak to Ground Type and Fighting Type attacks. Hey, at least you're not terrified of Fairy Type Pokemon like Ribbons," sniggered Zorua only to get an annoyed slap on her head from Sylveon from the nickname.

"Shut up, foxy!" the miffed Intertwining Pokemon spat.

"Actually, now that I think about it, you two must be the Hisuian Zorua and Hisuian Zoroark belonging to Sarah," Cynthia noted, facing Sho and Arrietty. "I've heard rumors that she'd have two Hisuian Pokemon in her family from Claw Town's outskirts but you're the real deal."

"Oh, right! I realized now you haven't meant them properly," Sarah gasped as she stepped forward and came up alongside her Hisuian Pokemon. "Cynthia, Dawn, this is Arrietty and her son, Sho. They're both, as you know by now, a Hisuian Zorua and a Hisuian Zoroark."

"And, as much as I hate to say it but given that they're the only two to survive today and the fact that Zorua and Zoroark in their original forms are now widely accepted by humans, they may be the only remnant of the Spiteful Fox Pokemon and the Baneful Fox Pokemon to be here today. Until we find out for sure about the remainder of both their species, I'm afraid they're the only ones left of their kind," Rotom-Dex buzzed to a now-sympathetic Cynthia.

"I'm sorry... I'm sure you'll find more members of both your species someday. There's still hope now that we know about the Sinnoh Region's ancient past."

"I wonder if there are any other Hisuian Zoroark and Hisuian Zorua that are still around to this day. Our baby did mention that when she and the others met you and your son, you both were living in a hidden temple among the forest at Claw Town, Arrietty," Delilah noted to Arrietty.

"If there are still any around, we can only hope. But, I'm afraid I know nothing about what happened to our kind today after we were accepted in our original forms," the Baneful Fox Pokemon admitted with a heavy and sentimental sigh as Sho gave a sad frown and looked down.

Deciding to change the topic of conversation for Arrietty and Sho's sake, Ash then inquired to Cynthia, "Cynthia, just how exactly did people catch Pokemon back in the old days?"

"I remember Arrietty and Sho mentioning those things to us earlier and detailing the balls that are upgraded versions of the old Heavy Ball and Feather Ball that are improved upon being crafted per rank in the Survey Corp, right?" Fishlegs noted in remembrance, tapping his chin.

"Great question, I'm glad you asked. Plus, you're right on the money, Fishlegs," Cynthia nodded.

She then took the group to another image where it detailed a Pokeball but one that looked as though it was entirely made of wood instead of the usual material for ultralight metal with the bottom half of it having a basic wooden shape while the top half retained the traditional red color. But, the biggest oddity of the old Pokeballs used in Hisui was that for the metal bits, there was a clip lock holding the ball together while it had a metal bit jutting from the top with a hole drilled in it for something everybody had no idea about.

"Here," Cynthia said, handing each of the kids, Sarah, and Asha a wooden Pokeball.

"These are Pokeballs? Check it out, Pikachu," Ash commented, showing the Pokeball that he is holding to his partner on his left shoulder.

"Pretty cool," Pikachu peeped.

"Wow, so this is what Pokeballs back then in Hisui looked like," Sarah remarked.

"It looks tripped out from the wooden look and feel and with those weird metal bits on it," Blitz admitted.

"I've never seen a Pokeball like that before," added Curly, sharing her crush's curiosity as she tilted her head at the Pokeball in Sarah's hands.

"But, they look a bit different," Dawn put in.

"Right," her Piplup agreed.

"It's definitely not the kind of Pokeball we're used to, I can tell you that," Asha noted, carefully scrutinizing the wooden Pokeball in her hands as the others are doing.

"Can people really catch us Pokemon in those things?"

"Um, I can't tell, really. Not sure how they work with how old-fashioned they appear to be, well..." Proud and Ziracon replied, adding their own two cents into the mix regarding the wooden Pokeballs.

"That right there is the kind of Pokeball they used in the Hisui Region a long, long time ago," Cynthia confirmed.

"Yeah/Really?" the kids, Sarah, and Asha puzzled along with their Pokemon with only Dawn's Piplup giving the group and his human partner a chirpy, "Way!", in response.

"Interesting, I remember in my day, we used to have those kinds of Pokeballs as well before someone in later years had the foresight to create them from the ultralight metal used today to craft them," Tsukumaro pondered.

"No way!"

"You did, Old Man?" blinked a surprised Nikki and James.

"Yep, that's what they look like and they're all indeed made of wood," Sho nodded proudly in confirmation.

"We've managed to recreate them using designs that had been left for us by the artisans of the time," Cynthia confirmed, eyeing the image of the wooden Pokeball.

"Amazing! Your people's ancestors made a groundbreaking Earthquake of a revolution with the creation of those ancient Pokeballs," Kukui complimented.

"So, the old designs of these Pokeballs actually survived long after their time."

"But, compared to the Pokeballs we're all used to, can anybody really catch Pokemon in these bad boys, for real?" Sarah and Race bantered in surprise.

Cynthia nodded with another confirming smile, "Of course!"

"I wanna try!"

"Me, too!"

"I do, too!" Ash, Kiawe, and Dawn said, wanting to see how people used the wooden Pokeballs for themselves along with the others as they shared their enthusiasm.

Cynthia just grinned in response as she took the group to a large domed area beyond the tent that had an area inside resembling the forest area of the Pokemon Heart Dome but with a touch of Hisui added to it as some Pokemon such as Combee, Bidoof, Budew, and many others are living their lives inside it, "I thought you'd say that! So, allow me to be your guide as you all experience... The Pokemon Catching Game!"

"Wow!" Poipole chirped as she looked around the forest area excitedly.

"Get out!"

"Unreal!"

"Are you really-?!"

"What in the name of Palkia-?"

"Holy Miltank!"

"For real?!" Turtonator, Zeraora, Cobalt, Tsareena, Amber, and Tyson gawked in shocked awe.

"Incredible, it reminds me of home at the princess and her family's castle," Suicune noted, impressed.

"Yeah, this reminds me of what's happening at Sarah's Pokemon Dragon Heart Dome," Ash agreed.

"Do you think we can catch 'em yet?" Snotlout asked Cynthia.

"Not yet. Now, everybody, come out!" Sarah called, signaling three Pokemon to come out of their hiding places and meet the heroes including an Oshawott, a Cyndaquil, and a Rowlet.

"It's Oshawott, Cyndaquil, and Rowlet!" Ash cried in excitement.

"Wait a minute, not that I don't want to nitpick or anything but Cyndaquil are usually given to new trainers in Johto," Kiawe pointed out, realizing something off about the three Pokemon before him and his party.

"Yeah, Rowlet is normally a new Pokemon for new trainers in Alola."

"And, I heard that Oshawott is one of the new Pokemon given to new trainers in the Unova Region by Professor Juniper. Why are they all here?" Mallow and Lillie inquired, feeling just as confused about the presence of the three Starter Pokemon before everyone.

"It's been written in Sinnoh's historical records that the professors back then who came to Hisui have brought these three Pokemon with them and after they've migrated, the new evolutions they took on have been drastic," Arrietty explained.

"Yeah, like with the rest of the Pokemon back then, these three gained new Types as a result in addition to their signature Types," Sho agreed.

"Fascinating! They gained new Types after migrating from their homelands?" Gobber praised with great intrigue.

"Indeed; it's all in the historical records we've managed to acquire; Rowlet, Cyndaquil, and Oshawott have all been brought to Hisui all those years ago from other regions," Cynthia nodded as she looked to the Oshawott, Rowlet, and Cyndaquil before her and the heroes. "I wanted to see what kind of effect these three Pokemon from Unova, Johto, and Alola would have on the Hisui environment so I asked these three here to help me out."

"Really?"

"That's so cool!" Ash and Pikachu grinned, their excitement continuing to bubble.

"Right, and in that sense, you'll be catching these three Pokemon before you. You can say 'hello' to them right now before you begin."

"Hi, hi!"

"Hey!"

"Greetings!" the Unova, Johto, and Alola Starters spoke kindly.

"You guys, we're going to be good friends."

"You bet!" Ash and Pikachu remarked again, unable to contain their excitement.

"You all have three minutes to do the catching and you are limited to only one Pokeball per person. Catch one or all of them before your time runs out and you'll earn yourself a prize at the end," Cynthia debriefed, explaining the rules of the game.

"Only three minutes?"

"And, with only one ball for each of us?"

"Sounds tricky," Mallow, Lillie, and Lana piped up, a little concerned.

"Aww, three minutes is more than enough for us to catch them!"

"A competition, is it? I'm game if you guys are."

"Count me in! And, by the end of it, the winner gets all the prizes!" Ash, Kiawe, and Dawn perked up, getting into the competition element of their game.

"It's a deal!" Ash and the gang grinned.

Sarah and Asha shared a smile as they looked at each other and the little princess said, "Well, Sis, may the best trainer win."

"I intend to," grinned Asha, giving her sister-in-law a wink.

"Who's going to keep time for them until the end of the game, then?" Theo questioned.

"We can do that," Athena volunteered as she and Solar stepped forward.

"We also had a new clock feature added to our systems courtesy of Nate and his friends from Grid Battleforce so if we're nearing the end of the game, we'll give you a heads-up before you all pack it in should those three outsmart them," Solar added as the two lion Beast Bots activated a clock feature and putting three minutes on it for the timer.

"You're seriously gonna make this like the Temple Run in Legends of the Hidden Temple, are you, Solar?" Sarah quipped.

"What can I say? Athena and I are calling the shots on that front and you're playing the game, not us. Good luck!"

"Of course, the catch is you can use your Pokemon to help you out with that," smirked Cynthia before she turned to the three wild Pokemon. "Alright, you three, off to the thicket to begin the game!"

"Wow, it's just like Hide and Seek," Dawn beamed as the three wild Pokemon jumped or flew into the brush to take their places.

"Kinda, girlfriend," her Piplup chirped.

"Okay, Ash, everybody, time to get ready!" Cynthia called before she turned to Solar and Athena. "Have you got three minutes on the clock, you two?"

"We're ready, Cynthia!"

"All systems go with the appropriate music!" the two Beast Bots replied with Solar also having his radio on to add some music to the competition.

"On your mark, get set... GO!"

On Cynthia's signal, Ash, the Pokemon School Gang, Sarah, Asha, and their partners ran off into the brush and Athena and Solar begin the timer while the latter plays the Temple Run song from Legends of the Hidden Temple on his radio to add to the competitive atmosphere going on around them and everyone else. They were all eager to try and find the three intended Starter Pokemon for Hisui and win even though it was entirely for their fun-filled research.

"Ready to do this, Pikachu?"

"Game on, buddy!" Ash and Pikachu grinned as they ran.

"Get ready to take First Place when we find them, Pyroar!"

"I'm primed to win, Kiawe!" smirked Kiawe and Pyroar as they went off in another direction and another spot on the brush.

"Okay, Piplup! We're gonna win this thing!" Dawn (trainer) cheered as she and Piplup dived into a bush while the others split up and formed separate teams.

However, finding the wild Rowlet, Oshawott, and Cyndaquil was proving to be much more difficult than the kids, Sarah, and Asha initially thought. For Ash, Pikachu, Kiawe, Pyroar, Sophocles, and Vikavolt (with Togedemaru forced to stay on the sidelines), they searched until they heard rustling and found only a Kricketot and a Cherrim before it changed to Sunlight Form.

Sarah and Asha joined forces as a sister team as they looked in the brush with the help of Blitz, Curly, Ziracon, and Proud but even they were finding their search tedious as the Oshawott, Rowlet, and Cyndaquil were very well hidden and they haven't found a trace of them yet.

"Those three sure can run and hide, much better than any child can," Sarah admitted.

"I know what you're thinking, Sis. If they can hide this well under this thick brush, I pity the trainers that went through all the trouble to get them back if they went astray to do their own thing," Asha agreed as their Pokemon assisted in the search but feeling just as baffled from how good the three wild Pokemon were hiding.

The other girls had no luck either on their end as they also couldn't find them anywhere until Dawn had an idea that can make things easier for them.

"Okay, Piplup! Use Drill Peck, quick!" Dawn suggested, allowing her partner to use Drill Peck and mow his way through the brush to search for the wild Pokemon while passing a surprised Ash as he crawled along the ground to look for Cyndaquil, Oshawott, or Rowlet.

"Huh, he can do that now?" the Kanto Trainer gawked in surprise.

But, Piplup was doing well with his Drill Peck, too well; as he continued to plow and cut through the brush, he also ended up going under Sarah's legs, unintentionally and nearly hitting her. "HEY! Watch the pants, man, they're the only pair I got for this set!"

Suddenly, without warning, Piplup did find the wild Oshawott (and thankfully, not Sarah's Oshawott by mistake) as he pecked the wild Sea Otter Pokemon's head and knocked it down. The poor Unova/Hisuian Water Type looked as though it was about to cry from the hard hit it took from Drill Peck but it soon ended up becoming mad at Dawn's partner as it lashed out at him for the unintended attack.

"Hey! Watch where you're drilling, Beak Head!" it snapped angrily before they soon fought with the now-irritated Oshawott using its scalchop to duel him.

"Yes! Okay, Piplup, now's my chance! Go!" Dawn shouted, throwing her Pokeball at the wild Oshawott.

But, as the Sea Otter Pokemon, Cyndaquil, and Rowlet demonstrated with their hiding prowess, the wild Oshawott demonstrated that despite its cute looks, it was smarter than the trainers and their Pokemon before it would give it credit for. It noticed Dawn's Pokeball coming at it before it deflected it with ease and went back to fighting her Piplup. Dawn was surprised as she saw her Pokeball flying in the air past her before it bounced off of something in the brush that let out a pained coo and landed in Sarah's hands (who was nearby along with Asha and their partners when they saw the scuffle between Oshawott and Dawn's Piplup).

"Huh?"

"What?" the two sisters blinked before they saw the wild Rowlet popping up as it rubbed its head from the bump it got from Dawn's Pokeball accidentally bouncing off of it, causing them to flinch.

"Oops, sorry!" Sarah called before she turned to Dawn and threw her Pokeball back to her. "Here you go, Dawn! Try again!"

"Thanks! Alright, Piplup, we can still catch Oshawott if we keep going!" Dawn called back as she caught her Pokeball and watched Piplup continuing to brawl against the wild Oshawott.

As Sarah and Asha looked back to the wild Rowlet, they noticed that it heard Ash calling for the Quill Owl Pokemon and began to chase after it only for his chase to be futile as it flew away from him and was not giving him and Pikachu any quarter nor edge as it continued to get away from him.

"HOLD UP! I SAID, 'WAIT'!"

"COME BACK HERE!" Ash and Pikachu screamed at Rowlet as they continued to try and give chase.

"You think we should help Ash at this point? By the looks of it, we're running out of time," Asha noted as she and Sarah then took a quick look at Solar and Athena's timers.

"One minute 'til it's over!" Solar called.

"Yeah, let's give him a hand. However, I'm gonna be the one to catch that little guy," Sarah replied.

"If that's the case, then I'll try to catch Cyndaquil!" Kiawe declared after hearing Ash, Sarah, and Dawn going after the wild Rowlet and Piplup until he stepped on a twig, causing the wild Cyndaquil to appear and knock him down as he fell over in shock. "Ugh, okay, now that's sneaky."

"Hmph, you like that? BURN!" Cyndaquil huffed as it stood in front of him and blasted him with Flamethrower, causing Snotlout, Hookfang, Tuffnut, Ruffnut, and Barf and Belch to laugh at him.

"You know, you're pretty bold, you know that?" Kiawe blinked, trying to contain his shock until Pyroar decided to step in as he stared at the Fire Mouse Pokemon before he gently pinned it to the ground with his right paw to prevent it from escaping.

"Huh? Hey! What are you doing!? You jerk, let me go!" Cyndaquil whined as it struggled to get out of the male Royal Pokemon's grip but to no avail.

"Phew. Thanks, Pyroar," Kiawe sighed in relief.

Meanwhile, Rowlet had escaped Ash and Pikachu and was flying around until it found Sarah and Asha coming at it. The wild Quill Owl Pokemon looked down at the little princess with a curious coo before it gently fluttered down to her and landed in her arms as she held onto the wild Grass Type.

Sarah blinked until she realized that the wild Rowlet had somehow taken a shine to her, "Oh, I see. You wanted me to catch you without having a battle, right?"

"Yeah... I like you, friend," the wild Rowlet cooed as it then nuzzled her chest.

"I knew it! You're a real Pokemon magnet the way your new fan fawned over you, Island Girl!" laughed Race with a playful smirk.

"Wh-SHUT UP, RACE!" Sarah spluttered in embarrassment while her family and other friends laughed at her in amusement as she blushed heavily.

"Piplup, let's wrap this up!" Dawn shouted to her partner just as her Piplup finally knocked the wild Oshawott's scalchop out of its hands, allowing Dawn, Kiawe, and Sarah to unclip their Pokeballs and then catch their chosen Pokemon.

"20 seconds left!" Athena shouted as her timer and Solar's timer reached 20 seconds and the music was reaching its end.

"Pokeball, GO!" Dawn, Kiawe, and Sarah shouted as they threw their Pokeballs, managing to catch the wild Cyndaquil, Oshawott, and Rowlet (the latter of the three having flown out of Sarah's arms and left itself open for her catch) as Ash and Pikachu finally reached Rowlet before they saw Sarah capturing it instead.

"10 seconds!" Solar shouted before he and Athena started counting down just as the Pokeballs touched the three wild Pokemon and sucked them in, the balls eventually shaking as Cyndaquil and Oshawott tried to escape with Rowlet only shaking once inside before Sarah's ball clicked shut and steam and stars came out of the ball.

"9!"

"8!"

"7!"

"6!"

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1!"

"GAME!" they finished just as Dawn and Kiawe's balls clicked shut as steam and stars also came out of their balls, signaling to everyone that Dawn, Kiawe, and Sarah have captured all three of the Hisuian Starters.

Everyone was amazed by what they saw from the Pokeballs after Oshawott, Rowlet, and Cyndaquil were finally caught and even Sarah, Dawn, and Kiawe couldn't hold back their awe and amazement over the wooden Pokeballs as they went over to them and picked them up, allowing themselves to soak in the sight of how the wooden Pokeballs of old worked with trainers catching Pokemon back in the days of Hisui.

"Whoa!" Blitz, Curly, Pyroar, and Piplup gasped in amazement.

"Wow, we caught 'em. Now, we know how the old-fashioned Pokeballs of yore worked," Sarah breathed in awe.

"Did you guys see all that smoke and stars coming from them?"

"So, that's how these old Pokeballs worked back then. I felt as though they were crafted from the furnace of an Inferno Overdrive and they finally showed their perfection when I threw it at Cyndaquil while Pyroar was keeping it pinned down," Dawn and Kiawe concurred, both of them sharing the little princess' amazement.

"Interesting little gizmos, aren't they?" Cynthia smiled as she approached the trio and the others.

"Yeah," Dawn and Kiawe answered as Sarah gave an agreeing nod.

"We did it, guys! We caught Rowlet..."

"...Oshawott..."

"...And, Cyndaquil!"

"All three in the bag!" the trio cheered as they proudly held their Pokeballs with Blitz, Curly, Dawn's Piplup, and Pyroar sharing their enthusiasm with happy cheers of their own.

"Wow! You guys were bubble-tastic out there!" Coral cheered with a flip.

"You did it, you caught all three Hisui Starters!"

"Great job, guys!" congratulated Cam and Brooke.

"All right! Everybody, bring them all out!" Cynthia smiled, seeing Sarah, Dawn, and Kiawe release their caught Pokemon before the group.

"Thanks a lot, you three."

"It's been fun!" Ash and Pikachu thanked the Starters.

"You guys sure had us on the ropes with all your running, flying, and hiding, Rowlet. I'm impressed," Sarah admitted with a bright smile towards Rowlet as he perched himself on her head.

"I know, right?" Rowlet chirped in reply.

"Yeah, that was a fun Pokemon catching game," chuckled Kiawe to Cyndaquil as she then used Flamethrower on him again but to thank him for the fun they had, prompting Snotlout, the Viking twins, and their dragons to laugh at him again. "AAHHH! What was that for...?"

"You see, Cyndaquil uses Flamethrower on someone only when she likes them and you just made her day!" giggled Cynthia.

"Does anybody have bandages or a first-aid kit for him?" winced Zoey (Yellow BM Ranger) innocently.

Dawn, however, felt a little awkward about Oshawott and her partner when she saw them acting like they are now the best of friends already despite being at each other's throats moments ago, quipping in confusion, "Since when did they become such good friends?"

"Congratulations, Sarah, you've caught your own Rowlet before your time ran out and without having to Close Combat to win," Kukui praised Sarah with a beaming smile.

"Thanks, Professor, but I guess since Dawn, Kiawe, and I got not just him but also Oshawott and Cyndaquil, we're all winners," Sarah blushed modestly as her Rowlet gave a happy chirp and a small perky peck in agreement.

"Oh, right! Thank means you technically have all three Hisuian Starters, you already have your own Oshawott and Cyndaquil with us!" Sho giggled in realization.

"We're also what...?/...Oh, yeah! COOL!" blinked Sarah's Cyndaquil and Oshawott in surprise at Sho's words before they gasped in realization and then shared an excited high-five between them.

"Thankfully, this little ball of fluff is no pillow-head case. That's a load off my mind there," Silvally smirked.

"Aww, he's so cute!" Skye cooed.

"He's sure got a lot of energy on him for a Pokemon with a rich and ancient history," Rex smiled.

"He will make a fine recruit in our ranks with his incredible skill set if he has one AND if he should have a Hisuian form after this," Trooper concurred.

"That's great! Hey, Cynthia, since I already have an Oshawott and a Cyndaquil, would it be already if I keep this Rowlet with me?" Sarah asked Cynthia as her newly-captured Quill Owl Pokemon continued to rest atop her head.

"Of course not, you can have him! He's already taken a shine to you as far as I can tell and you've already got yourself the complete Hisui Starter line-up, especially since you cared a great deal for the Pokemon in your family! And, since you, Dawn, and Kiawe caught Oshawott, Cyndaquil, and Rowlet within the time limit, here are the prizes I told you about," smiled Cynthia, accepting Sarah's proposal and offering her own congratulations to her, Dawn, and Kiawe.

"Man, I'm psyched!"

"And, the game was a three-way tie between them!"

"No one can hoard all the prizes!" Ash, Sophocles, and Dawn cheered as Cynthia gave them three copies of books on her research into the Space-Time legends of Sinnoh.

"Here you go, everything I can find about Sinnoh's Space-Time legends!"

"Amazing! There has to be information on Sinnoh's past as well as something involving the Space-Time Continuum and regarding Dialga and Palkia," Tsukumaro gasped as he came over and looked at the contents of the book featuring Cynthia's research while Dawn and Kiawe looked at their books in confusion.

"I wouldn't want to look a horse's gift in the mouth if I were you, children," Diane remarked with a warning eye and her hands on her hips.

"Thanks, Cynthia, I'm sure that book's going to come in handy, especially for a seer of mine. But, first, I'm gonna have to think of a name for you later," Sarah smiled before she looked at her Rowlet still on her head.

"I'll wait," her Rowlet replied.

Back at the Team Galactic Headquarters, a helicopter had landed on the roof as it was carrying Saturn and the grunts with him for the return trip after successfully capturing Heatran. Inside the headquarters, we find two additional and familiar faces among the Sinnoh syndicate's ranks which are Mars and Jupiter, Team Galactic's Third-in-Command and Fourth-in-Command respectively, looking over additional data they've collected for a project they were working on while in the midst of a stone portrait of their former commanding officer and leader, Cyrus, just as Saturn and his crew arrived back.

"Where's Heatran?" Jupiter inquired to Saturn, the latter smirking as he presented his colleagues with the Dusk Ball containing the captured Lava Dome Pokemon.

"Excellent! Now, we can begin in earnest," Mars smiled darkly, satisfied with their resurrected syndicate's success before turning towards the giant plate in the middle of the laboratory.

"The Flame Plate. Looks more beautiful every time I see it," Saturn quipped, overlooking what is now revealed to be a Life Plate belonging to Arceus.

"It's supposed to be beautiful, it's one of the plates said to hold the power of the Alpha Pokemon, Arceus!" Jupiter praised, relishing in the power the Flame Plate they would soon harness.

"Whatever, let's get this started."

"Yes, I agree," Mars and Saturn smirked as they, Jupiter, and the rest of Team Galactic were now ready to begin their plans for Heatran and the Flame Plate.

"We will now begin the Heatran Experiment. Team Members, stand by!" Jupiter reported as the computer stats were booted up.

"Plate, commence vibrations," a grunt noted as he started the computer's systems for the experiment while the Flame Plate began to charge with Arceus' Fire Type power, allowing Saturn to begin the next phase of their experiment.

"Heatran, I need you to lend me your power now for our mission. Use Magma Storm!" he bellowed, sending Heatran out and having it unleash Magma Storm at the plate.

The Flame Plate absorbed Heatran's power from the blasts as Team Galactic continued to take notes on what they were seeing, witnessing first-hand rising energy levels as the Flame Plate continued to absorb the powerful flames from Magma Storm, a grunt declaring, "I'm confirming energy output! Both the hypervibration and energy rate are increasing in tandem!"

"The dream of Team Galactic, the first step in the creation of a brand new world of our own making," Mars grinned, growing even more satisfied with the results.

"Not so fast, Mars. You do realize we need far more power than this if we're to open the dimensional portal, right?" Jupiter interjected, turning to her colleague.

Suddenly, Team Galactic noticed a sharp increase in the power the Flame Plate is taking as the equipment started to reach critical power levels just as an alarm started to blare, causing another grunt to shout, "It's exceeding critical levels!"

Then, without warning, the Flame Plate's power warped and emitted a bright flash of light. The power the Flame Plate had absorbed was so intense that it can't contain it for much longer, causing high-frequency waves to be released from the building, affecting the nearby Pokemon living within the mountain range as the waves warped the magnetic field.

With our heroes, after leaving the tent following their little Pokemon-catching game and with the addition of Sarah's new Rowlet, the magnetic field change made its way to the recreated village and it touched the Pokemon, the dragons, and the Six Spirits as they all gave varied reactions to the high-frequency waves. Rajhu was hit the hardest out of the Six Spirits as he gave pained grunts and flinches given his powerful connection to nature before he and the other Pokemon and dragons and his fellow spirits gasped, realizing that something's gone wrong from wherever the waves came from.

"Hey!"

"What-?!" Toothless and Stryka began, startled.

"What is it, bud?"

"Something wrong, Stryka?" Hiccup and Zenna asked their partners, their friends also showing great concern for their dragons as they also gave startled warbles and coos.

"Romeo, are you okay, partner?"

"Juliet, what's wrong?" Johnathan and Diane called to their Gallade and Gardevoir as they shook their heads to alleviate the pain that came from the waves.

"What is it, Pikachu?" Ash quizzed his partner. "

Are you okay, Rajhu?" Sarah asked the slightly-pained Rajhu as he shook off the worst of the waves' effects with a concerned Blitz eyeing him knowingly.

"You felt it, too?" the male Alolan Pikachu inquired as Curly joined him.

"Yes, something's not right. I just felt a great disturbance in our world's magnetic field, like a giant surge of uncontrolled power that has been unleashed upon us all without warning," Rajhu confirmed gravely, holding his head from the headache he had gotten.

"It must be coming around nearby here. Maybe at Mt. Coronet which we saw in the distance while coming here," Curly theorized as Hitch heard everything from them and his animal companions as they chirped and squeaked frantically, all of them feeling just as worried and upset about what happened.

"It sounds like they sensed a change in this world's magnetic field, just near Mt. Coronet," Hitch translated.

"Uh-oh..." squeaked Nebby and Nebula nervously, looking up at the clouds along the peak of Mt. Coronet.

"Princess, something strange is going on at the top of Mt. Coronet," Suicune said to the princess, eyeing the strange cloud cover and the red bits brewing at the top of the mountain. "I don't like the look of those clouds and that menacing red light coming from them."

"I hear them; the Pokemon, their cries... Whatever that change in this world's magnetic field is, it could have a grave effect on all of the Pokemon living in that mountain range and within Mt. Coronet as well," Nuraiah frowned with great concern.

"If that's so, something is definitely not right. We should check it out, fast," Zayto suggested, getting knowing nods and calls from everybody else as they rushed off to find out what was going on.

However, they're not the only ones who found out about the disturbance in the world's magnetic field no thanks to Team Galactic's experiment with the captured Heatran and the Flame Plate; at Jump City in California, the Teen Titans had also felt a change in the magnetic field and are gathering in the living room as Cyborg worked on his computer to track down the source of the change and the high-frequency waves that came from it.

"Cyborg, how are you coming along with the search?" Robin asked his bionic comrade.

"I'm scanning the area and the entire planet for any sign of the disturbance we picked up on the magnetic field. Whatever it was, it sure was a big one, big enough to put out a powerful high-frequency wave or two that jammed up our electronics and even me for a brief period," Cyborg noted as he continued working and the supercomputer scanned for the source of the magnetic field disturbance.

"I wonder if this change in Earth's field of magnetics is like an omen of some kind, one pertaining to great danger," Starfire thought.

"I can't find anything in my records relating to this strange phenomenon," Raven (Teen Titan) admitted.

"Sounds kinda trippy but am I the only one thinking that this magnetic field change feels a little...off?" Beast Boy inquired.

"You're not the only, BB. Whoever created that surge must've done so with a lot of power coming from somewhere, something, or someone and they had to generate a lot of power to make something like those high-frequency waves possible. I can't even remember the last time we found out about and faced that something or someone that can harness such tremendous energy," Cyborg nodded before he got a reading coming from Mt. Coronet in the Sinnoh Region as the Teen Titans' supercomputer got a lock on its GPS system.

"Got a lock, the high-frequency waves and the source of the disturbance are coming from Mt. Coronet and in the Sinnoh Region, near Calavine City of all places," he confirmed.

"Wait a minute, isn't Calavine City where that festival celebrating Sinnoh's ancient past when it was called Hisui is taking place?" Beast Boy piped up, looking at Calavine City on the supercomputer's map.

"Yeah, it's called the 'Hisui Festival'. But, I have a weird feeling that there's something funny going on with the changes in the magnetic field coming from Mt. Coronet. No doubt somebody would've noticed that if they felt those waves as well," Raven nodded.

"Whatever the case, Starfire's right; those waves from that abrupt change in Earth's magnetic field could point to a disaster waiting to happen," Robin said.

"Then, it is important that we make our way to the region of Sinnoh and climb Mt. Coronet and figure out what is causing this magnetic disturbance," Starfire suggested.

"Good idea, Star. And, if we're lucky, we might run into Sarah and her friends along with the Power Rangers. They might want to know about this if they haven't already," Cyborg nodded in agreement.

"So, we'll be making a road trip to Calavine City to save everyone there?" Beast Boy pondered.

"It's the best thing to do given our current situation. Titans, go!" Robin decided.

While the Teen Titans were preparing to make their way to Sinnoh via the T-Car and T-Sub, in his own dimension, the Alpha Pokemon, Arceus, also felt uneasy when he sensed the oncoming crisis and noticed the abrupt changes in the magnetic field on Earth. Feeling that an unprecedented crisis was upon them, he let out a roar to alert the Creation Trio: Giratina, Palkia, and Dialga, and summon the Lake Guardians to his side to inform them of the inevitable calamity that was about to take place on Mt. Coronet.

As they made their way with their family and friends to Mt. Coronet, Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit heard Arceus' roar and gasped, sensing that he needed help and wants them with him to inform them and the Creation Trio as soon as possible. Giving each other determined and knowing nods over what their creator/father wanted, looking at their family going on ahead while making a mental promise to return to them once they heard everything, they moved over to an isolated area and created a dimensional rift before they passed through it to meet with the Alpha Pokemon.

Upon arriving in their creator/father's dimension and joining with the Creation Trio, all of them stood at attention before Arceus as he eyed them knowingly of the danger that was about to pass.

"Father, is something wrong?" Dialga questioned.

"We came as soon as we heard you, what's happened?" Azelf quizzed.

"My children, I have terrible news; some kind of unknown monstrosity is about to awaken and scorch the earth of the Sinnoh Region. I fear it had something to do with my missing Flame Plate and Heatran as soon as I heard its cries which suggest to me that they may be in the wrong hands. What's more, I'm afraid the princess and her family and friends know nothing about this crisis at the moment," Arceus briefed.

"T-T-That's t-terrible! I was a-a-afraid of t-that w-when we felt a d-d-disturbance in the m-m-m-magnetic field," Uxie remarked.

"Oh, no! What are we going to do?" gasped Mesprit.

"I want you, Uxie, and Azelf to take Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina with you and notify the princess of this crisis, Mesprit. But, you have to be quick; I have a feeling that what we're about to battle for the safety of the world and the Sinnoh Region is not only familiar on one hand, but on the other, it is unlike anything we've ever faced before. Please be careful and observe what happens after you notify her, her friends, and their allies but do not engage the enemy unless you really need to should they be upon you all, good luck. Now, go!"

"Yes, Father," the Lake Guardians and the Creation Trio nodded with knowing bows, turning away and teleporting to tell Sarah and her friends, family, and allies what is happening right now.

Returning once more to Team Galactic's headquarters, to the relief and satisfaction of everyone gathered, the situation regarding their experiment with Heatran and Arceus' Flame Plate was no longer in crisis proportions as the Flame Plate returned to normal after completely absorbing Heatran's Magma Storm.

"Our first step in the experiment is a complete success, the Flame Plate has completely absorbed all of the power from that Magma Storm," Mars stated with a nod.

"This is it, everybody. I can confirm that the energy produced from the Flame Plate and Magma Storm has affected the dimensional barrier," Jupiter added determinedly, reading the stats offered on the supercomputer.

Saturn smirked in satisfaction as he then stated, Excellent, now that our work has officially begun with the first step, we can open the door and clear the way to Master Cyrus!"

But, what Team Galactic didn't know was that in their haste to find and bring back Cyrus, they were unleashing untold chaos that would threaten to destroy the world, starting with Mt. Coronet itself. This is evident when the heroes arrived at Mt. Coronet and came to an abandoned mine with the Six Spirits, the Pokemon, and the dragons leading them (after returning the Hisuian clothing).

As they looked around, Zeraora, the Swords of Justice, and the dragons gave small growls and suspicious hums or remained silent while giving off powerful glares, trying to find out where the disturbance was coming from until they looked at an upper wall before them before Pikachu, Turtonator, Pyroar, Snowy, Togedemaru, Tsareena, Mallow's Shamin, Sandy, Primarina, and Vikavolt joining them as the others came over.

"What's up, Pikachu?" Ash asked his partner again.

"Did you find anything, you guys?" Sarah asked her dragons.

Keldeo turned to Sarah and said, "*There's some kind of unknown power brewing from here and it seems to be coming from that wall in front of us from the right.*"

"You mean there's something in there?" Mallow asked as everybody looked at the upper wall from their right just as Cobalt, Star, and Nikki's Lucario used their Aura to sense the disturbance there, and yet, what they found was not as wild as everybody thought but rather more calm and docile.

However, that was to change as a series of high-frequency soundwaves that both people and Pokemon and even creatures like dogs and cats can hear rang out. The noise was so awful and grating to hear that the heroes, their Pokemon, and the dragons were all forced to scream and either cover their ears or try to block out the soundwaves as they pummeled down on them and the mining area.

"My ears!" Lily (Yellow JF Ranger) screamed.

"My circuits, they hurt!" Steel bellowed in pained panic.

"What's going on!?" Amelia cried out.

"That's a powerful Supersonic attack somebody's abusing out here!" groaned Terrakion in pain as he did his best to block out the noise.

"But, who would want to use such a deadly attack right now, especially after those weird pressure waves that resulted in a change in the planet's magnetic field?!" Totem Luxray grunted in pain as he strained the block out the attack while covering his ears as he lay down.

"I think we're about to find out, look!" shouted Sarah's Piplup.

Sarah's Piplup pointed everybody toward the upper wall just as it exploded from the inside to reveal what looked to be a small pack of five Chingling falling and screaming from something that blasted at them, all of them covered in a strange bright red-violet electric power with their eyes sporting the same color as they glared at what was their attacker.

"What the-?! Chingling!" Ash yelled, seeing the Chingling before a second Pokemon appeared from out of the hole which was a Bronzong as the Bronze Bell Pokemon roared at the Bell Pokemon but under the same dark power as it glared back at them with the exact same light in its own eyes.

"RRRRAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"

"A Bronzong, too?" gasped Rotom-Dex.

"Uh, guys, what in the name of Odin's up with their eyes?"

"Yeah, I don't know about you but the way that Bronzong is looking at those cute little live bells is creeping me out," Tuffnut and Ruffnut remarked worriedly.

"Oh, my! You're right, that poor thing doesn't look normal at all and neither are the Chingling! Something must be terribly wrong!" Henna nodded.

Henna was right; as the heroes watched helplessly, the Chingling and Bronzong fought before the Bronze Bell Pokemon used Psybeam to halt the charging Chingling as they went for another group attack before knocking them back down into the ground before it confronted them again.

"No, wait!"

"Stop it, leave them alone!"

"Don't do it!"

"All of you, stop this madness, AT ONCE!" Hiccup, Zenna, Pikachu, and Doug bellowed but to no avail.

"It's no use, there's no way we can stop those Pokemon when they're like this unless we have a hail mary on our hands," Jhyali replied grimly.

"What's happened to them must be the result of the recent changes in the magnetic field. Whatever caused those pressure waves from earlier must've affected the Pokemon and it is making them much more aggressive and confused. Our voices won't be able to reach them as long as they're in a power-crazed trance."

Jhyali was right; the Chingling and Bronzong didn't hear a word Hiccup, Zenna, Pikachu, and Doug said to them and they kept on fighting as a result. Then, without warning, another explosion from inside the mine occurred from the left but this time, what tumbled out was a pair of small Riolu, a wild Axew, a Dratini, a Deino, a wild Seviper, a Zangoose, a Charmander, a Trapinch, and a pair of Bagon. All of them, as they landed on the ground in front of the heroes, looked to be extremely banged up before they collapsed after failing to get up.

"Oh, no!" Ravi cried in alarm.

"Look at them!" Aiyon breathed in shock.

"Oh, my goodness! Why, they appear to be a pair of Riolu, a pair of Bagon, a Zangoose, a Charmander, a Trapinch, an Axew, a Dratini, a Seviper, and a Deino! But, they're not too peachy given those wounds on them so whatever attacked them must be powerful," Solon gasped as she identified the new Pokemon and noticed the wounds sported on their bodies.

"But, who or what would be powerful enough to give those Pokemon living in the mine along with those Chingling a bad hair day besides Bronzong?" Javi pondered.

A roar later followed by the wall being blasted and crumbling caught everyone's attention they discovered the culprit to be a large wild Tyranitar while sharing the menacing red-purple glow in its eyes, making Dawn gasp as she shouted, "It's a Tyranitar!"

"AAAAAHHHHHHH!" a trio of screams rang out, the owners revealing themselves to be a trio of Spinda running in their trademark awkward way their species is well-known for in a right panic before they darted towards Sarah, Diane, and Aiyon and hid behind their legs in fear.

"And, these three here are Spinda," Diane blinked in surprise.

"RRRRRAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" roared Tyranitar as it took aim at the unconscious Pokemon before it and fired Hyper Beam.

"Oh no, Tyranitar's using Hyper Beam!"

"It's gonna blast all those Pokemon!" Lillie and Astrid screamed in horror.

The Hyper Beam would've made its mark on the younger Pokemon before Tyranitar but thankfully, they wouldn't have survived had it not been for Toothless, Stryka, Stormfly, Meatlug, Hookfang, and Barf and Belch's quick intervention. Moving as fast as they could go for their species, Toothless and Stryka rescued the Riolu pair, Stormfly saved the wild Axew, Dratini, and Deino, Meatlug grabbed the wild Seviper and Zangoose, Hookfang snagged Charmander and Trapinch, and Barf and Belch caught the Bagon pair just in time before the Hyper Beam blasted the younger Pokemon's original location.

"Whoa, nice save!" gasped an amazed Jakanee as her jaw dropped.

"Hey, knock it off!"

"What's the matter with all of you?!" Ash and Kiawe snapped, failing to get the attention of the fighting Pokemon still in their power-crazed trance and causing Tyranitar to turn their attention to the heroes and, in an act of unprovoked aggression, fired another Hyper Beam at them.

"Look out!"

"Here comes another Hyper Beam!" Diane and Johnathan shouted in alarm, forcing them to dodge the attack as they scattered given they were in close range and Sarah couldn't bring out her mother's Moon Shield in time.

"I've had enough! Ziracon, Proud, use Moonblast and False Swipe! Shut down that Hyper Beam and give that Tyranitar a knockout!" Asha bellowed with a low growl.

"Piplup, use Whirlpool on those Chingling and Bronzong!" Dawn added to her partner.

The three Pokemon heeded those commands, knowing that they have to stop the fighting before it gets worse. Targeting Tyranitar, Ziracon countered Hyper Beam with Moonblast and then, using the smoke from the explosion as cover, Proud dashed forward to use False Swipe as he took the crazed Rock Type down with little to no effort. As for Dawn's Piplup, he conjured up a Whirlpool large and powerful enough to end the battle between Bronzong and the Chingling as it sucked them inside before it was dispelled and they ended up returning to normal as a result.

The startled yet battered Bronzong, Tyranitar, and Chingling were all dazed when they returned to normal thanks to Dawn, her Piplup, Asha, Ziracon, and Proud but when the red-violet glow in their eyes vanished, they suddenly had no recollection as to what they've been doing as they blinked and looked around in surprise.

"Huh?"

"Whoa, look at that!"

"What happened?"

"Dudes! They lost their freaky mad looks!"

"He's right, they're not fighting anymore!"

"That Whirlpool from Dawn's Piplup and Mr. Proud's False Swipe did it!" Pikachu, Togedemaru, Turtonator, Sandy, Tsareena, and Snowy gasped in surprise.

"Nothing like a little cold water to wake you up!" Dawn (trainer) smiled, relieved that her Piplup's Water Type attack was able to knock some sense back into the confused Chingling and Bronzong.

"Good thing we tamed those guys when we did, they were really going at each other and the Pokemon nearby," Asha breathed as she sighed with relief.

"That's how we do it, Dawn and Piplup Style!" bragged Dawn's Piplup proudly.

"Well, w-we helped, t-t-too," Ziracon remarked.

"Let's hope our attacks did it for them and Tyranitar. They were really at each other's throats earlier and we've cut it close with that raging rock dragon," Proud prayed, eyeing the perplexed Rock Type as it roared and growled in surprise.

Also feeling relieved that the danger involving Tyranitar, Bronzong, and the Chingling had finally passed, Toothless, Stryka, Stormfly, Meatlug, Hookfang, and Barf and Belch carefully brought the injured Pokemon they'd rescued to the group. As expected when they first saw them, the wounded and unconscious Riolu and Bagon pairs, the wild Axew and Seviper, Dratini, Deino, Zangoose, Charmander, and Trapinch indeed looked like they were worse for wear thanks to Tyranitar's unprovoked assault on them.

Even one of the Chingling was badly hurt from a heavy bruise on its head as it whimpered, "Owie...!"

"Oh, no!"

"Hang in there, buddy!"

"We're sorry, this is all our fault!"

"Don't move, okay?" the other four Chingling whimpered worriedly in response.

"Hey, what's wrong?" Pikachu questioned as the group along with Bronzong and Tyranitar approached them.

"Are you okay?" quizzed Ash with concern as Dawn took notice of the bruise on its head.

"It's hurt, isn't it?" the Twinleaf Town trainer/coordinator asked.

Sarah frowned worriedly at the Chingling's bruise and in the current state of the younger and/or baby Pokemon that the Viking Teens' dragons rescued and said, "Yeah, whatever did this to them, Bronzong, and Tyranitar was no accident. Something must've caused the Chingling, Bronzong, and Tyranitar to go bananas and fight earlier without warning through those strange pressure waves and it ended up getting these little guys hurt in the process."

"But, who would be crazy or stupid enough to make them go rogue beyond their control due to the changes made in Earth's magnetic field?" Asha questioned her sister before the area around everybody changed and they were in an environment akin to a spatial dimension.

"Hey!"

"Oh, not again!"

"What's happening?"

"Where are we?"

"Uh, guys, I don't think we're at Mt. Coronet anymore," Fennekin, Dusk, Athena, Frosmoth, and Robbie commented as they and everybody else looked around.

"Princess!"

"W-We found you!"

"Thank goodness!" Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit cried as they appeared along with Giratina, Palkia, and Dialga.

"Hello, Ash Ketchum."

"Greetings, Dawn."

"Princess," the Creation Trio greeted, much to everyone's surprise.

The Vikings and their dragons were left in stunned awe and shock at the Creation Trio as their jaws dropped, Snotlout and Hookfang more or less screaming and warbling in fear as they hid behind Hiccup and Toothless for they never saw anything like the three of them in their lives. The Power Rangers and Solon shared their shock as they were left speechless.

Not even Discord, the Six Spirits, the Eight Queens, the Dragonstone Patrol, and the ponies could comprehend the three giant Legendary Pokemon before them as they stared in shock.

"Uh, those are really, really big dragons... Not gonna lie, seriously," Amelia began, unsure of what to say.

"Make that ginormous, if you want to put it like that," Ollie agreed with a nervous gulp.

"Those guys are not the type you want to meet in a dark alley unlike the Lake Guardians, if I'm completely honest," Izzy (Green DF Ranger) gulped as Javi simply nodded nervously.

"Amazing! I've never seen anything like these guys! Their size and power can tell tales but they look remarkable," Solon commented in awe while Zayto and Aiyon looked on, completely awestruck and stunned as their jaws were dropped wide open before Solon gently closed them to help them get over their shock.

"No way, it's Dialga!"

"Palkia!"

"And, Giratina!"

"The Creation Trio!"

"Created by Arceus himself!"

"They're here along with the Lake Guardians!"

"All of them!" Ash, Dawn, Kiawe, Mallow, Lana, Lillie, and Sophocles cried in amazement.

"The Creation Trio?!"

"It can't be...!" Johnathan and Diane screamed in shocked awe.

"Wait, wait, wait, wait! Hold on, back up. I'm sorry, what? Who or what are they?" Hiccup asked on behalf of his friends, their dragons, Gobbler, Stoick, and the Power Rangers.

"You lads and lasses know those three fascinating beasts?" Gobber questioned in surprise.

"The Creation Trio: Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina, the three Sinnoh Deities of Time, Space, and the Reverse World," Sarah presented as she took out their Pokemon Gems and saw them glowing brightly in response to their presence.

She then turned to Rotom-Dex and asked him, "Rotom, would you mind...?"

Rotom-Dex saluted, he knew what the little princess wanted for their friends as he searched through his datafiles for Giratina, Dialga, and Palkia's entries, "No problem, Sarah. Alright now, everybody, all eyes on me!"

"Giratina, the Renegade Pokemon. A Dragon and Ghost Type and a Legendary Pokemon, legend has it that this Pokemon was once banished for its violence, gazing silently upon the old world from its home, the Reverse/Distortion World. Dialga, the Temporal Pokemon. A Dragon and Steel Type, this Legendary Pokemon is said to control the flow of time, using its powers to travel through time at will between the past and the future. Palkia, the Spatial Pokemon. A Water and Dragon Type and a Legendary, Palkia lives in the spatial dimensions between parallel worlds, and with its unique ability to open rifts at will in the Space-Time Continuum, one can travel to faraway places and dimensions."

"They're all Legendaries, just like the ones you have in your family, Sarah!" gasped Fishlegs in amazement.

"No way! Zayto, are you hearing this?! Palkia can open up portals to other worlds and travel between them! Doesn't that sound familiar?" Aiyon beamed at his best friend, both of them now staring in amazement at Palkia as they gained bright smiles on their faces.

"I get it, that's almost or exactly like how we did with the Cosmic Dino Key! I had no idea that even a powerful Pokemon like Palkia is even capable of such power," Zayto smiled, giving off a chuckle of fascination.

"Yes, and it appears that all three of them were charged with governing the boundaries of Time, Space, and the Anti-Matter from their own dimensions so as to not disturb the balance made possible by the Space-Time Continuum," Sol nodded in confirmation.

"But, what I don't get is why you're all here. What did you bring us here for?" Sarah asked the six Sinnoh Legendaries.

"We received a warning from Father and he wanted us to pass it to you," Mesprit informed.

"Something wicked this way comes and when it does, it'll scorch the earth and threaten to level the entire world with its flames if left unchecked," Azelf added before the Lake Guardians used their powers to show them a giant being made of lava.

Everybody gasped in total shock as they witnessed the being in full force while at the same time, Reader gasped as her eyes glowed white once more, seeing flashes of the same flame coupled with a large figure trapped within it and a giant plate-like object in the center of the creature before they turned to normal and she winced while grimacing, her new vision causing her head to hurt as she tried to shake off the pain.

"Reader! Are you hurt, are you okay, Reader?" Sarah gasped, kneeling down to her psychic draconic advisor before another figure appeared amongst the flames.

The figure was a giant white equine Pokemon resembling a qilin like Rajhu or a centaur with its gray and vertically-striated underside. Its striated pattern had similar occurrences along the underside of its mane, tail, and face with its feet being pointed and tipped with gold hooves while its mane jutted away from its head (having a gold collaboration streak to it) and its gray face had green eyes with red pupils with a green circular pattern below them. And, just like its tail (which is like its main in terms of its shape and coloration), its ears were pointed upward.

It sported a fairly long neck with two extrusion pairs along its sides along with a flap-like feature on the underside colored white like the rest of its body. What stood out about it is that a golden cross-like wheel was attached to its body by its round abdomen with four jewels sported on it. Also, another striated gray pattern along its underbelly continued past the chest. And, finally, its legs had gray undersides and extrusions at the top of them.

"No way!"

"What is that?!"

"I don't want to find out!"

"Holy Odin!"

"Whoa, it's even bigger than the Red Death Queen. Crazy!" Toothless, Hookfang, Meatlug, Stryka, and Stormfly breathed in shock at the odd Pokemon.

"Is that...?"

"It's, him, baby..." Sarah and Delilah breathed, trying to contain their shock.

"O-O-Our F-Father..." Uxie nodded.

As soon as Uxie mentioned Arceus, the Alpha Pokemon took a look at the heroes, specifically Sarah, Ash, and Dawn before he and the Creation Trio vanished and they were soon returned to Mt. Coronet. None of them breathed a word as they all tried to process what just happened with the warning the Lake Guardians, the Creation Trio, and Arceus were telling them about and the new vision Reader just had.

"So, that's the Legendary Pokemon, Arceus..."

"The one responsible for creating us, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina," Azelf confirmed with a knowing nod to Diane.

"Eh, what's an Arceus?" Gobber asked in stunned confusion.

"I have the file on him stored in my databanks so this shouldn't be too hard," Rotom-Dex remarked as he found and read Arceus' file. "Arceus, the Alpha Pokemon. A Normal Type and Legendary Pokemon, it is told in mythology that this Arceus was the very first Pokemon ever born before the universe even existed."

"You mean it was here before all the other Pokemon existed?" Pipp asked in stunned shock.

"Like, before any of us from our worlds and dimensions even existed?" added a thunderstruck Sunny.

"Yep, it's also been said that in the beginning, there was nothing but an egg and that egg was said to have hatched into Arceus. But, that's up for debate until we and researchers get more information about him."

"He must be trying to tell us something," Ash mused as Dawn nodded.

"How in Thor's Helmet can any of you be so calm about that Arceus chap at a time like this?!" gawked a flabbergasted Stoick.

Ash turned to Stoick as he mentioned, "Because, back then, Dawn and I had lots of adventures in Sinnoh before and we've met all of the Sinnoh Legendaries many times during our journey. Along with the Lake Guardians, we saved Dialga and Palkia from Team Galactic when they tried to make a new world where war doesn't exist but they nearly destroyed ours in the process. We stopped them but their boss, Cyrus, was thus lost in a dimensional gate forever."

Dawn agreed as she added, "What's more, we even helped Arceus when he was supposedly betrayed by a close friend of his in the past after he sacrificed some of his Life Plates to create something known as the Jewel of Life to help that friend and his home when it was dying. When we first crossed paths with him at Michina Town, Dialga managed to send us back in time to uncover the truth and right the wrong that was made, fixing history in the process."

"Are you kiddin' me? You and that turkey brain actually met and helped the Alpha Pokemon?" blinked Silvally to Dawn in disbelief.

"Seriously?!"

"Wowie-Zowie, you must've been really lucky to meet Arceus and save him!" Pinkie Pie and the Vikings Twins shouted, unable to contain their shock and amazement at Ash and Dawn's achievement (with Pinkie letting out a large shocked gasp in the process before she spoke).

"Eesh, Team Galactic sounds even worse than Lothor and Team Eclipse."

"Yeah, at least they had a score to settle with the royal family and failed when they were toast."

"Trying to make a new world while sacrificing ours in the process and none of us even knew about it? That's a low only those galactic freaks could go compared to Team Eclipse," Chase, Phanpy, and Aiyon remarked while frowning.

"I don't recall Lothor going that far and I don't think I ever will," gulped Marshall as Everest nuzzled the dalmatian pup gently to comfort him.

"But, why would he and the Creation Trio appear now and what do they need our help for?" Jakanee asked the Lake Guardians.

"Father told us before we found and brought you to his dimension that the warning is to do with his missing Flame Plate and the Legendary Lava Dome Pokemon, Heatran. Something is obviously wrong if anything bad happened to those two and we need to find out what it is. I just hope it isn't Team Galactic or we're all doomed," Mesprit said.

"You're right, let's get to the Pokemon Center," Dawn agreed, taking the wounded Chingling in her arms.

"You heard the lady, let's scramble these Pokemon down and get them treated right away," Jax concurred.

Everybody nodded in agreement, knowing that if they want to find any answers to the warning regarding what happened to Heatran and the Flame Plate as well as the creature they were trapped inside of, they would have to get the Pokemon involved in this mess looked at and treated right away. Without wasting any time, everybody prepared to backtrack back to Calavine City with Hiccup, Zenna, Astrid, Snotlout, Fishlegs, the Viking Twins, Henna, Stoick, Gobber, and Edgar gently taking the Riolu and Bagon twins, the wild Axew and Seviper, Zangoose, Charmander, Trapinch, Dratini, and Deino into their arms.

In addition, Diane, Race, and Aiyon each took one of the three Spinda that were thankfully unharmed in the conflict so they can be treated as well while Nuraiah gently brought Tyranitar onto her paw and then her back to carry it on the way down. And, soon, they were on their way, knowing that time was not on their side given everything they had just learned.

Meanwhile, back at Team Galactic's main headquarters, Heatran had just unleashed another Magma Storm onto the Flame Plate as Mars and Jupiter and the grunts with them continued their experiment to bring back Cyrus.

"All hyper-vibration activity has been fully stabilized, it's safe to proceed," Jupiter noted, carefully examining the readings she got on her panel.

"Saturn, now!" Mars signaled, allowing said field commander to begin an announcement they have for their crew via microphone.

"Attention, everyone, it's finally time to put our plan into action! As rulers of the new world, we will do everything we can to bring Master Cyrus back!" he announced, walking over to the stone portrait of Cyrus as he and everybody else recalled that fateful day when they were so close to completing their mission, only to be thwarted by Ash, Dawn, and Brock, losing Cyrus as he abandoned them and crossed over to another world.

Team Galactic - a Pokemon syndicate in Sinnoh dedicated to building a new world where war does not exist. But, their plan would ultimately come at the cost of destroying the world as we know it. Their leader, Cyrus, was charismatic but behind that trustful facade lies a burning ambition that caused him to summon the Legendary Pokemon, Dialga and Palkia, using them and their power to open a gate in the Space-Time Continuum. Ash, his Friends, and the Lake Guardians were successful in stopping their plan but Cyrus left his team behind and vanished through the gate.

"Now, that we have Heatran's power and the Flame Plate, our preparations are complete. Soon, we will open the gate in the Space-Time Continuum again! This is it; the first step in the construction of the new world. We will start our operation in 1800 hours. Everyone, stand by!"

Team Galactic's members nodded with a salute, "Yes, Sir!"

With our heroes, after arriving back and going to the Pokemon Center, the incident went all over the news as everybody was being told about it being repeated with other Pokemon living in the entire area surrounding and within Mt. Coronet. They did manage to get the wounded, confused, and frightened Pokemon they have on them admitted for treatment by Nurse Joy but while they waited, all they could do was listen in on what is to be the calm before the storm as they watched and listened in on the news broadcast that was already being reported.

"Eyewitness reports of unusual activity have all involved Pokemon who live on Mt. Coronet. Some people are wondering if there's a connection between this activity and the deviations in the magnetic field near Mount Coronet several hours ago."

"It's worse than we thought, even the other Pokemon living in the surrounding wildlife are also being affected," Twilight gasped, deeply concerned.

"Oh, all those poor Pokemon!" Fluttershy cried, tearfully covering her eyes as she wept.

"What are we gonna do?" Race's Zweice asked.

"There you go, everybody, your little menagerie is all better," called a familiar voice coming to the group with a Blissey in tow and joined by the Three Spinda, the Riolu and Bagon twins, Dratini, the wild Axew and Seviper, Zangoose, Deino, Charmander, and Trapinch, causing Sarah, her Alola friends, Ash, and Dawn to gasp in surprise at the owner.

"Brock!" they cried, seeing the breeder-turned-doctor standing before them with his Blissey beside him with an amused smile.

"Now, what are the odds that all nine of us would all be here together at the exact same time?"

"Another friend of yours?" asked a confused Hiccup.

"Yep. Everybody, for those who don't know, this is Brock. He's my and Dawn's old traveling buddy who wanted to become the world's best Pokemon Breeder, and now, he's currently studying to be a Pokemon Doctor," Ash nodded, introducing Brock to everybody that hadn't met him yet.

"A Pokemon Breeder and a Pokemon Doctor, oh my!" Henna gasped in awe.

"Whoo-hoo! Bubble-tastic!" Coral praised, flipping again.

"That's so cool, you're kinda like me!" Zoey (Shollie female) smiled.

"Wow, you look great in that uniform, Brock!"

"The doctor's outfit suits you given your profession!"

"That's wonderful!" Sarah, Sophocles, and Lillie complimented the Pokemon-Doctor-in-Training.

"Slick, Brocko! You oughta be going places being a top-notch doctor with all of your know-how in Pokemon Breeding," Liberty remarked with a smile.

Then, once the introductions were done, Ash, Pikachu, Dawn, and her Piplup all began to tell Brock everything that went down after investigating what was going on at Mt. Coronet but they were talking too fast and over each other for him to follow, making it hard for him to understand what they were saying which left him to chuckle in amusement as he tried to have them settle down and tell him slower.

"One at a time! How am I supposed to understand any of this with you both talking at once?" he asked, gently waving his old friends down.

"Sir Brock, is it? Our daughter and her friend from Kanto told my wife and I much about you ever since we came back," Doug greeted as he and Delilah came forward to meet Brock.

Brock smiled as he shared a handshake with the royal couple, "Yep, that's me. King Doug and Queen Delilah, right? It's nice to finally meet the last members of the Alolan Royal Family. I'm glad to hear and see that you're both alive and well after all this time."

"Yeah, it's great!" Blissey grinned, the evolved Happiness Pokemon smiling brightly at the couple.

"Oh, how cute!" Delilah cooed as she approached Blissey and gently caressed her with Nikki, Henna, Donna (former queen), and Diane cooing at her as well, all while Pastry and her sisters happily barked at her as they came forward to meet Brock's faithful assistant. "How do you do, dearie? My name's Delilah, I'm Doug's wife and Sarah's birth mother."

"Hello," chirped Blissey as she gently hugged the women and the happy Fidough quartet while Rotom-Dex scanned her and brought up her file.

"Blissey, the Happiness Pokemon. A Normal Type, this kindhearted Pokemon nurses sick Pokemon to help and it'll sense feelings of sadness," he buzzed.

"Hey, Brock, is this really your Blissey you've been emailing me about from time to time?" Ash asked, looking at the Happiness Pokemon in surprise.

Brock smiled with pride (recalling when he first got Blissey as a Happiny) as he confirmed, "Yeah, she evolved from Happiny to Chansey and now, she's my indispensable assistant."

At that moment, Brock's second Sinnoh companion, Croagunk, appeared before the group but he is now wearing a Pokemon Doctor's hat as he greeted the heroes, "And, me...too. Hello..."

"As is Croagunk."

"Croagunk?" Javi echoed, looking surprised as Rotom-Dex brought up Croagunk's file.

"Croagunk, the Toxic Mouth Pokemon. A Poison and Fighting Type, its cheeks hold poisonous sacs and it tries to catch its foes off guard to jab them with its toxic fingers."

"Long time, no see, Croagunk!"

"Hey, man!" smiled Dawn (trainer) and her Piplup.

"Yeah, you two," the Toxic Mouth Pokemon dismissed slightly, also feeling glad to see them and Ash.

"Hey, Brock, you heard everything, right?" Ash asked, getting to the subject of the Pokemon suffering at Mt. Coronet.

"Yeah, I saw it on the news while Nurse Joy and I were treating the Pokemon you brought to us. It seems to me that the warping magnetic field has affected Chingling along with Bronzong and Tyranitar as you guys have already guessed," Brock theorized with a knowing look on his face.

Then, without warning and for the third time, Reader grunted in pain as another headache came at her which drew everyone's attention before her eyes turned white, the vision from last time repeating but with the prophecy that haunted her returning as it started to come true.

A Threat once gone shall return

Dangerous Ambition turns into ignition

Something is coming to scorch the earth

The natural world will be baked in fire and ash and burn

Unless a piece of the Original One is returned

When two deities clash

Time and Space shall change

The balance will fall unless two worlds combine to fix it all

The vision hit her harder as Reader was knocked onto the floor, forcing Sarah's younger Pokemon and dragon hatchlings to check on her while Brock looked on in amazement and wonder at the sight of her prophetic powers (as he was told by Ash about Reader once she joined Sarah's family after she was introduced as the little princess' seer and advisor for Dragonstone).

"Reader!" Sarah cried as she joined them to check on her draconic seer.

"Wow, so those are Reader's prophetic powers. That's incredible," he blinked before he frowned with a grim look and turned towards Ash and Dawn. "But, that strange prophecy, hmm... I wonder if it's related to what you both have been trying to tell me about regarding the Pokemon being affected by the warping magnetic field."

"Okay, wait, wait! Wait a minute, time out! Sarah, you knew about this and you didn't let us know? When did she get that kind of power?" Hiccup questioned Sarah, looking and raising a suspicious eyebrow at her.

Sarah went pale and gulped; she realized that Reader had gotten her vision out in the open with her friends, and now, she and her family knew that following Reader getting the vision and the prophecy coming back as it started to come true, the others would have to be in on what they know about it if they were to get the answers to the mess they were waltzing in on.

"...It was last week on Saturday that night. When we least expected it, Reader started getting a vision; something terrible had happened to Heatran during this time but that was all we got and we had no idea what it meant so we kept quiet until we had more information. But, after thinking about it on our part, it all came together," Sarah confessed until she gained a genuinely worried look on her face as she explained further.

"See, while we were waiting for the Pokemon we brought in to be treated before the newscast from earlier kicked in moments earlier, my family and I had been recalling the parts about the prophecy and tying what we know from it and the visions Reader was getting to the warning the Lake Guardians, the Creation Trio, and Arceus had given us regarding Heatran and the Alpha Pokemon's lost Flame Plate. We couldn't figure out fast enough what it meant but now, the first part made sense; 'A threat once gone shall return, dangerous ambition turns into ignition, something is coming to scorch the earth' meant that Reader saw Heatran being captured by a group of enemies that want its power for a reason which means the Flame Plate must be involved, too!"

"Heatran's been captured again?!" Ash gasped in shock and horror.

"But, who would want Heatran for its power and what do those enemies want with Arceus' Flame Plate?" Hitch asked as his animal friends all chattered worriedly.

"I don't know but I have a feeling we'll find out who's responsible for what's been going on as well as Heatran's capture and the situation involving the Flame Plate once we return to Mt. Coronet."

"Then, let's get back to Mt. Coronet as soon as possible!"

"We've got to figure out what or who's been causing the Pokemon to go crazy and fast," Dawn and Kiawe suggested, getting knowing nods from everybody.

"We will. Leave everything to me," Brock concurred, already having a plan in mind to get to Mt. Coronet as fast as they could.

"No, wait! Please! Wait!" cried a voice as the doors to the emergency room opened and out came the Three Spinda, all of them cutely walking/stumbling about to the group followed by Tyranitar along with the Pokemon previously wounded by the Armor Pokemon.

"Huh, what are you all doing here?" Ash blinked in surprise.

"Should you all really be out of bed right now?" inquired Dawn, looking concerned for the wild Pokemon as Tyranitar shook its head at her.

"We wish to offer you our assistance concerning this case you're working on to repay you for saving us," the Armor Pokemon offered.

"Please?" the Riolu and Bagon twins, Dratini, Deino, Charmander, Trapinch, Zangoose, and the wild Axew and Seviper pleaded.

"We'll be good," Dratini added, slithering to Fishlegs as he picked the Dragon Pokemon up with a soft smile.

"You mean, you all want to come with us, back to Mt. Coronet?" Sarah deducted, getting nods from the wild Pokemon before they went to and chose their new trainers to take them in so they can help with the impending calamity.

The Riolu twins waddled up to Hiccup and Zenna before cooing at them, reaching up with their little paws as they wanted the former Viking underdogs to hold them. The two best friends had to smile, unable to resist as they carefully took them in their arms which made the Emanation Pokemon twins giggle. The Bagon twins just simply waddled up to Edgar and Henna and looked up at them curiously.

The now-male Charmander, however, walked up to Stoick and examined him carefully as if he was testing him to see if he was worthy of being his new trainer. Trapinch immediately took a liking to Gobber as it scurried over to the large Viking and happily munched on his prosthetic leg (getting an amused chuckle out of him as he watched the Ant Pit Pokemon try to bite through his fake leg while he chomped on it).

"Oh no, you don't, laddie," he smirked as he gently grabbed Trapinch and booped its snout, getting a smile from the Ground Type.

Then, at the moment when the wild Axew and Seviper, Deino, and Zangoose made their way over to Astrid, Ruffnut, Snotlout, and Tuffnut, Sarah had to smile as she knew what they wanted. As it was the Viking Teens' dragons that had saved them when Tyranitar was still in its power-crazed state, the younger wild Pokemon were in debt to them and the Vikings and wanted to join them.

"I see, it looks to me like those kids have chosen their new partners for life all by themselves after being saved by your dragons earlier. So, short, sweet, and to the point, it's official," Sarah grinned.

"Official?" the Viking Teens echoed in confusion.

"I think what Sarah means, you guys, is that they chose you as their trainers. So, that means you'll have to catch them with the extra Pokeballs Cynthia had given you as a gift," Dawn clarified, also sharing a knowing smile with Piplup chirping happily in agreement for them.

The Viking Teens were all surprised and even Stoick, Edgar, Henna, and Gobber were amazed as Fishlegs said to Dratini, "Wow, Dratini! You and the others here picked us?"

"And, when that happens, there's really no stopping the Pokemon once they made their choice," Doug remarked to Delilah who agreed.

"You're quite right, would you all and the kids like that for them, Stoick?" Delilah asked the Viking Chief.

"Hmm, what do you say, Charmander? Would you and your friends like to come with us?" Stoick quizzed Charmander who agreed.

Charmander looked towards the other wild Pokemon that have chosen their partners and they all gave happy smiles as they nodded toward the wild Flame Pokemon. He then gave the same response to Stoick which got a smile growing on the chief's face as all of them, both Vikings and Pokemon, stood in front of each other in two straight lines (Dratini joining them after Fishlegs gently put his new partner down on the ground), the former group taking out the old-fashioned Pokeballs Cynthia had gifted them all with before they all parted ways with her.

"Okay. Ready, Dratini?" Fishlegs asked Dratini, getting a happy coo from the little Dragon Type.

The rest of the wild Pokemon gave similar responses to their chosen partners and, with no qualms or regrets, the Vikings unclipped the latches on their Pokeballs and threw them toward their new partner Pokemon. The balls bounced off of them and then sucked all the Pokemon inside, leaving the Three Spinda and Tyranitar the only ones left standing as the balls shook for a moment and then puffed out smoke and stars, signifying their official captures. What it also meant is that despite not having trainer licenses, the Vikings of Berk have officially become Pokemon Trainers in their own right.

"Well, now, color me impressed. You may not have these Pokemon Trainer licenses that my people and I were told about by the princess but I can safely say that you've each won your very first partner Pokemon, congratulations," chuckled Marena as the Vikings released their new Pokemon, all of them grinning before they turned their attention to Tyranitar.

"So... Who's going to get the big guy?" Fishlegs asked, gesturing toward Tyranitar before it looked carefully at the heroes and then had its sights set on Asha, coming up to her and staring her dead in the eyes, its own eyes giving a wanting glow as they bored into her own.

Asha, after holding her own stare with it, had to smile as she said, "Well, I guess it's obvious, at this point."

"Me, too! Me, too! Me, me, me, me, me, me, me! Please, please, please, please, please, please, please!" one of the Spinda shouted with a coo, cutely stumbling towards Asha as it looked at her over its swirl-shaped eyes that had two spots over them.

"Oh, no!"

"Here we go again," groaned James and Nikki as they facepalmed, realizing what it meant.

"She's your daughter!" laughed Johnathan.

"You should've seen it coming since she and Sarah are almost like two peas in a pod," Diane chuckled.

"Shut up," Nikki and James grumbled while throwing dirty glares at their parents which made them laugh even harder at their misery.

The second Spinda with the mark of a broken heart and the third Spinda with the mark of a whole heart on its forehead soon chose their own trainers as they both waddled up to Aiyon and Race (the latter that once hid behind Sarah's legs having now taken a shine to the former Battle Frontier champion once it saw him), consequently choosing them as their own partners.

"Well, I guess we don't need a quick game to decide who gets to keep the other two Spinda," Sarah joked to the gold Dino Fury ranger and her boyfriend.

Aiyon and Race looked at each other and chuckled while shaking their heads, deciding to agree to the shared wish of the two Spot Panda Pokemon as they picked them up.

"Okay, you guys. You can come along, too," Aiyon smiled with Race nodding in agreement.

"YAY!" the two Spinda cheered as the first Spinda hugged Asha's right leg and happily nuzzled it as the young woman made the same choice.

"Something tells me those younguns and Tyranitar are going to be just fine now," remarked Cobalt, sharing a smile and a nod with Tyson.

"Well, now that that's settled, I think it's time we head for Mt. Coronet, on the double," Sarah announced as she activated her Wrist Com and called the Robo Dogs for fast-track transport to Mt. Coronet. "Robo Dogs MK-1 & MK-2, time to fly! I need you to bring in the StormWing Patroller, immediately!"

Moments later, after hearing her call, the two robot dogs arrived at Calavine City's Pokemon Center with the StormWing Patroller at hand. Quickly, everybody including Sarah, Race, her human family, Marena, Devon, Casey, Zayto, and their teams along with Solon and the Beast Bots, Ryder, the PAW Patrol the Dragonstone Patrol, the Cat Pack, the KRS, the Vikings and their dragons and new Pokemon partners, the Mane 6 and Mane 5, Discord, Celestia, Luna, and Cadence rushed inside as they prepared to head to Mt. Coronet.

The younger Pokemon and those that can't fly were all riding aboard Drogon and Zephyr (whom Sarah and Race summoned from their briefcases for their assistance) while Ash, Dawn, and their partners (joined by Glaciel as he asked his master and Sarah to ride with them to Mt. Coronet instead) rode with Brock on a small aircraft he manned that was in the Pokemon Center's lower levels and elevated to the main road.

With everyone ready for takeoff, they joined the Eight Queens, Qibli, Smolder, Blaze, Cyrus, Thunder, Wu and Wei, Sarah's dragons, her Flying Pokemon, and the Six Spirits for Mt. Coronet (all of them either flying or air walking beside them).

"Hang on!" Sarah called to everyone via a headphone microphone she was wearing, provided to her by the robot dogs.

"Sweet! This is one wicked ride, dude!" Glaciel cheered beside the breeder-turned-doctor.

"Man, this is fast!"

"No need to worry!" Ash and Dawn agreed, excited by the ride.

"I use it for Pokemon house calls all the time, it's quite convenient and quick," Brock smiled with a chuckle.

"Mt. Coronet, here we come!" the Night Lights and Poipole all cheered as they made their way to said mountain to stop the calamity Arceus, the Lake Guardians, and the Creation Trio warned them about.

They could only hope they were not too late to stop the perpetrators responsible because, returning to Team Galactic's headquarters again, their plan to open a new dimensional rift was about to take shape.

"Time to begin the true operation!" Saturn declared once the Flame Plate had been charged with another Magma Storm and dusk started to fall once 6:00 finally rolled along.

"Beginning," one of the grunts concurred, activating and bringing out a ray that would help them control the power of the Flame Plate for their dimensional rift opening, pointing it towards the heavens.

At the same time, Brock decided to go over what he finally heard from Ash and Dawn as well as Sarah and the others as he recapped, "Let's see, the message you been sent wasn't so much from just the Lake Guardians and the Creation Trio but mainly from Arceus and Reader saw something similar to prove it in her visions while also getting that foreboding prophecy about this latest calamity involving Heatran, the fire creature, and the Flame Plate from them, is that correct?"

"You're right! I should transmit all of this to Cynthia so she can help us on this, too!" Dawn gasped, activating her PokeTech and preparing to call Cynthia to tell her everything they knew so far.

As the heroes got closer and closer to Mt. Coronet, Team Galactic was continuing to go through with their plan to bring Cyrus back as Jupiter and Mars confirmed that they were ready from what they now got, "The Plate Beam is now standing by."

"All systems are fully operational."

"It's now or never, Heatran," Saturn announced to Heatran who grunted in acknowledgment. "Use Magma Storm!"

With one final Magma Storm, Heatran directed its power towards the powered-up Flame Plate for one last charge to ensure that Team Galactic will have all the power they needed to unleash what they call a Plate Beam and fire it at the heavens to open the dimensional gate. Unfortunately, though, just as the Magma Storm charged up the plate again, something went horribly wrong; sudden sparks of electricity shot out from the device connected to the Flame Plate before a sharp surge of power started to overload Team Galactic's computer systems dangerously.

"The energy rate is rising beyond measure!"

"Our power levels are above critical level!" two grunts reported, trying to control the power. Team Galactic, however, wasn't concerned about the danger present as the energy was soon absorbed into the device that hovered over the Flame Plate despite the risk involved, charging up the ray that was set up as another grunt soon reported, "Energy generator is operational!"

"Fire at once!" Saturn approved once he was satisfied.

"Commencing, fire!" a fourth grunt agreed, firing the ray's Plate Beam as it struck the heavens and hit what looked to be a dimensional barrier, trying to open the dimensional rift Team Galactic so badly needed to rescue Cyrus.

Just as the heroes were continuing to make their way toward Mt. Coronet, they all soon noticed the beam that penetrated the dimensional barrier, gasping in surprise at the sight of it before they took notice of where it was coming from.

"What was that?!" Appa cried in shock.

"What is that beam?"

"And, where did it come from on the mountain?" Stormfly and Meatlug gasped.

"I see it, where that laser beam is coming from! It's over on those foothills over there!" Steel noted, pointing everybody with him and his team inside the StormWing Patroller towards the foothills of Mt. Coronet.

Sarah gasped as she activated her headphone mic and called Brock, "Hey, Brock, Glaciel, Ash, Dawn, are you getting this? That laser we just saw must be coming from the foothills of Mt. Coronet. Someone must've already been here, that must mean we're not alone as far as I can tell. Robo-Dogs, head for the foothills!"

"We read ya, Sarah, we'll follow you on the way," Brock nodded.

"Alright, Brock, let's get over there and check it out!" Ash informed.

"Right!" his old friend agreed and they rumbled away to the foothills to stop the criminals responsible just as Jupiter, Mars, and Saturn watched on with the rest of their team at the supposedly successful beginning of their plan.

"As we've calculated, there's a reaction to the Space-Time Continuum and the dimensional gate is expanding," Jupiter acknowledged, much to Mars' joy.

"Hold on, Master Cyrus," she prayed.

"Now, Heatran, we'll need more power if we're to open the dimensional gate further and begin our mission to rescue Master Cyrus! Use Magma Storm, once more!" Saturn called to the Lava Dome Pokemon, having Heatran unleash another Magma Storm as its flames turned blue and got even hotter, further charging up the Flame Plate powering the laser and its Plate Beam.

"The rate of energy generated from the Magma Storm attacks and the Flame Plate's containment of them is rising even further!" one of the grunts reported as the Plate Beam grew stronger and the dimensional gate was slowly opening up more.

"Look, that's the dimensional gate!" Mars announced, seeing Team Galactic's only hope of getting to Cyrus.

"Come on, Heatran! We need more, more!" Saturn ordered, pushing Heatran to continue unleashing its power to the point when the laser ray and the Plate Beam were reaching their limits and the ever-increasing level of danger was starting to become more noticeable with the deadly charge of power.

"We can't raise the energy rate any further! It's going to overload if we don't act fast-!" Jupiter stated with a worried grunt.

"We can't stop it now!" denied Mars, desperately urging her colleague to continue. "The dimensional gate is about to open, we can't lose this one!"

"Mars is right, we must not stop now! Whatever it takes, we'll do everything we can to find and bring back Master Cyrus!" Saturn agreed knowingly.

But, Jupiter was right to be worried as she grunted again before she noticed the Flame Plate becoming brighter and hotter as it unleashed a surge of untold power that not only damaged the ray firing the Plate Beam but also made a move that would devastate Team Galactic's plans.

"The energy generator system is damaged! The energy's reversing!" one grunt exclaimed in panic.

"It's reversing?!"

"No, we can't, not when we're so close!" Saturn and Mars balked, both of them aghast and in shock.

But, that would be the least of their problems as the Flame Plate then unleashed a powerful high-energy beam at Heatran, causing the Lava Dome Pokemon to be shot back towards the wall hard. Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars watched on in shocked horror along with their grunts as their headquarters soon exploded from the blast and was destroyed along with the laser ray, canceling the Plate Beam and sealing the dimensional gate once more.

Everyone gasped in shock and surprise when they saw it all happen, even from afar. "What happened?" asked Aiyon.

"That beam, it just disappeared just when that big something was about to appear," Ravi noted.

"That's not just any big thing, that's the dimensional gate! But, who would try to open it just now?" Dawn pondered, concerned.

"I have a hunch somebody's messing with Mother Nature again and I can tell things are gonna get hairy once we make it to that mountain," Glaceil remarked, feeling a literal dark chill in his body.

In the midst of the wreckage of the laboratory they were in, Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter were able to make it out unscathed along with the undamaged Flame Plate, noticing Heatran amongst the pile of rubble before it conjured up some flames around it, looking as though it was burning with a vengeance as it gave a searing glare amidst the flames. And, yet, something about it didn't seem to be, natural...

"Heatran, what's going on?" Saturn questioned before Heatran gave a loud roar and the Legendary Pokemon unleashed its power at a threatening level as it gave a powerful roar, causing Mars and Jupiter to gasp in shock before it stopped roaring and glared at its captors as it trudged towards the three of them.

"Heatran, return!" Saturn demanded, pulling out his Dusk Ball until Heatran stopped him and forced him to drop the Dusk Ball as it melted in the flames, horrifying the three commanders.

"Retreat, now!" Jupiter commanded, allowing the grunts to exit their facility as they clamored about while Mars helped Saturn back up onto his feet.

"Why is this happening? Let's go," she muttered disdainfully as they departed, knowing that they lost their only chance to find and save Cyrus.

Once Team Galactic was out of the picture, Heatran (who is now free from Saturn's control and ownership) made its way toward the Flame Plate and bit into it, causing a massive explosion that not just ripped into their base but also destroyed it completely. The smoke that followed soon cleared as Heatran was then seen as a burning monster of flames in its likeness trudging out of the site of the original headquarters while all three of Team Galactic's field commanders could only watch from the wreckage.

Until Saturn realized what had happened regarding Heatran's ability known as Flash Fire, "Hold on! Could it be Heatran's Flash Fire ability gone haywire?"

"Flash Fire ability?!"

"You mean all of this started from a Pokemon's ability?" Jupiter and Mars asked in disbelief.

Saturn nodded as he explained, "The energy that was released by the Flame Plate was very powerful, far too powerful for it to contain. And, with that overwhelming power, it brought forth a colossal change in Heatran's form!"

But, that was only the start of it as, unknown to Team Galactic, Reader's vision about the calamity they've wrought upon was coming true; the monstrous colossal that overtook Heatran and the Flame Plate fired a powerful beam at the sky at the spot where the dimensional gate closed (much to Saturn's surprise and shock when he saw the beam) and began to leave a trail of destruction in its wake, causing the helpless forest Pokemon nearby to scatter and flee in fright for their lives as their home was being destroyed.

"Heatran..."

"It's on the move!" observed Mars and Jupiter.

"After it, quickly!" Saturn ordered.

"Right!" the grunts nodded as Team Galactic then gave chase.

As the heroes were continuing their way to Mt. Coronet, they all heard the destruction of the forest and the terrified cries of the forest Pokemon running and flying for their lives, causing them to turn to the source of their terror. What they saw shocked and horrified them greatly; there, heading for Mt. Coronet as well, was the Heatran Colossal as it left a trail of fire that burned the forest as the first part of Reader's vision came true.

"What the-?!" Pikachu gasped in shock as he, Curly, and Blitz noticed the colossal trudging up the mountain forest at an incredible pace while the heroes kept up with it.

"What is that thing?"

"It's a Pokemon but it looked like some kind of fiery beast!" Curly and Blitz gawked.

"What's going on?" Ash blinked before he gasped in horror at the sight before them all.

"Oh, dear! I'm afraid our problems are getting worse, everybody!" Solon briefed worriedly as they all watched and she went to a nearby computer panel to check on the stats involving the Heatran Colossal. "I'm picking up powerful energy readings that are like nothing we've ever faced before including the Sporix, that monster must be the Heatran from Reader's vision and the same fiery creature the Lake Guardians and the Creation Trio were warning us about earlier!"

"The monster Reader's vision and Sinnoh's Legendary Pokemon told us about was a Heatran the whole time?!" Cruise balked in complete surprise.

"With its colossal transformation made possible by bad people who wanted to use that Pokemon for their own purposes!" added Devon, feeling just as flabbergasted and having a bad feeling in his stomach about how the whole thing started.

"That's cuckoo bananas!"

"That's hoppin' insanity there!" replied an equally-shocked Smash and Jax.

"And, it's not over or the worst of it yet until we get to the bottom of this mystery," Sulfuur nodded grimly.

"Whatever's happened to Heatran, it can't be good!" Nate agreed.

"Not good, the forest!" Ash cried.

"Oh, those poor Pokemon! Their homes are being destroyed and there's nothing we can do to help them!" Fluttershy cried, weeping as Rarity held her and gently turned her away to keep her from seeing the devastation the Heatran Colossal was leaving behind.

"If this keeps up, there won't be anything left around Mt. Coronet let alone on it for the Pokemon to live in!"

"And, if we don't destroy that monster and free Heatran and the Flame Plate if they're both inside it, we're doomed," Delilah breathed in horror, devastated at the destruction she and everyone else is forced to witness on the way to Mt. Coronet.

But, our heroes weren't the only ones powerless to help the fleeing Pokemon and their homes against the colossal 'cause at the same time as they and Team Galactic were making their way towards the beast, the Teen Titans in the T-Car and the T-Sub were finally able to make it to Mt. Coronet and even they were shocked and flabbergasted from seeing the destruction left behind by the Heatran Colossal and the Pokemon Titan itself.

"DUDES! Are you guys getting this?! There's a giant fire monster making its way to the top of that mountain!" screamed a shocked Beast Boy.

"I'm also picking up a high-frequency of energy waves coming from it, there's a dark unknown power coming from it that looked as though it was unleashed several moments ago that went out of control!" Raven noted, looking at the energy readings she was picking up once she did a scan of the Heatran Colossal.

"How horrible! That monster is leaving a terrible trail of fire and destruction that is causing all those Pokemon to flee for their lives!" Starfire noticed, seeing all of the Pokemon that are running and flying away in panic, the Teen Titans yelping in surprise as they barely managed to stop and not hit a flock of Combee and Golbat chirping and squeaking in terror as they flew away.

"Man, that was close! But, did any of you guys get a good look at that thing?!" Beast Boy asked

"I sure did, BB! And, I have a feeling that's no ordinary Pokemon we'll be helping our friends go up against to save it and the world; that's one of the Legendary Pokemon of Sinnoh! The Lava Dome Pokemon, Heatran!" Cyborg nodded grimly.

"But, what I don't get is how a Heatran was able to turn itself into a monster like that," Starfire pondered.

"Heatran didn't transform into that thing out of its own free will, somebody had captured and forced it to be like that and now, because of their stupid actions, the people and Pokemon living in the forest and Calavine City nearby will suffer as a result!" Robin informed.

"Well, Rob, what do we do now? Do we hold it off?" Cyborg suggested.

"Too dangerous; the heat it's giving off from the flames will burn and melt the T-Ship in a matter of seconds if we get too close. We have to find Sarah and her friends and give them a hand. We've got to figure out who's responsible for that Pokemon Titan before we fight it. Titans, don't stop until we get to Mt. Coronet, and make sure to keep an eye out for our friends along the way!"

Upon Robin's orders, the rest of the Teen Titans agreed and remained on course until Starfire gasped once she looked to her left from below them.

"Robin!" she called, pointing and directing everybody to their left and saw the StormWing Patroller along with Ash, Brock, Dawn, and Glaceil in the Pokemon Doctor-in-Training's aircraft.

"The StormWing Patroller!" Raven gasped.

"And, Ash, Dawn, and Brock! Robin, let's follow them! They're heading for Mt. Coronet and that monster, too!" Beast Boy called.

"Got it! Hang on, Titans!" Robin nodded as they followed their friends from above.

With Team Galactic, they were also pursuing the Heatran Colossal with Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars chasing after it by helicopter. "Where does it think it's going off to?"

"Wait, is it heading for the Spear Pillar?" Mars and Jupiter asked.

Saturn nodded, "Excellent! Keep on going, you can still open the dimensional gate!"

Saturn's satisfaction didn't last long as it was soon wiped from its face as he turned to his left and noticed the heroes including Ash, Dawn, Brock, and the Teen Titans pacing the Heatran Colossal as it continued its way towards Mt. Coronet's peak, the Spear Pillar. The Pokemon Titan roared as it was nearing its destination just as the heroes approached it from behind once they were close enough but not too close to get burned by it.

Saturn's satisfaction didn't last long as it was soon wiped from his face as he turned to his left and noticed the heroes including Ash, Dawn, Brock, and the Teen Titans pacing the Heatran Colossal as it continued its way towards Mt. Coronet's peak, the Spear Pillar. The Pokemon Titan roared as it was nearing its destination just as the heroes approached it from behind once they were close enough but not too close to get burned by it.

"Heatran!" Pikachu cried.

"Right, gang, we made it!" Devon called.

"But, where is it going exactly?" Zoey (Paramedic Pup) questioned.

"Is it heading towards the Spear Pillar?" Dawn (trainer) asked, realizing where the Pokemon Titan is heading.

"Spear Pillar?" Jhayli echoed.

"What the Norden...? What's it trying to pull once it gets there?" Thunderailer pondered, itching for a fight against the colossal.

"You've been there once before, Dawn?" Sarah asked.

"Yeah, I remember it well! That's the very spot where Team Galactic once summoned Dialga and Palkia and opened the dimensional gate using their and the Lake Guardians' power!"

"Team Galactic?! It can't be!" Ash yelled in shock.

Brock looked grim as he explained what they were going to do next, "We'll get ahead of Heatran. Then, once we've overtaken it upon reaching the Spear Pillar, we can stop it with everything we got."

"Right/Yeah/Got it!" everybody called, proceeding to try and overtake the Heatran Colossal while trying to endure the massive heat it is giving off from its supernatural flames via the Flame Plate.

"Robo-Dogs, overtake the Heatran Colossal and head for Spear Pillar! But, be careful, the flames from that titan could melt us if we stay near or above it at close range for too long!" Sarah ordered the robot dogs, getting affirmative and determined barks from them as they drove the StormWing Patroller as carefully as they could with the others carefully following behind them, Ash, Brock, Glaceil, and Dawn as they tried to not get burned themselves.

"I hate fire!" Piplup griped while onboard Drogon, trying to hold himself together as the heat licked him.

"I'm hot!" Skitty whined fearfully as she grew hot from her spot on Zephyr.

"You're not the only one!" agreed Eevee, unable to bear the intense heat.

"It's like being in an oven at 1000 degrees!" Skiddo added.

Without much trouble, they managed to get past the Heatran Colossal and overtook it as it continued to march forward, roaring to where the dimensional gate was about to reopen in a blaze of sparks and crackles of powerful electricity after launching a Plate Beam many moments before. Finally, the heroes arrived at the Spear Pillar and regrouped once they had landed, the Teen Titans joining them once they found their friends.

"Robin!"

"Starfire!"

"Raven!"

"Beast Boy!"

"Cyborg!" Mallow, Sophocles, Kiawe, Lana, and Lillie gasped in surprise.

"What are you all doing here?" Ash added, just as bewildered as his Alola friends as the Teen Titans approached them.

"We felt a change in Earth's magnetic field and we've traced it coming from Mt. Coronet while the Hisui Festival was going on and you all were having fun there on your field trip," Raven replied.

"But, we didn't think the pressure waves in the fluxes on the magnetic field would extend beyond Mt. Coronet and Calavine City once they hit," Sarah thought.

"The pressure waves were big and they slightly garbled our systems when they made contact with the rest of the world but the amount of energy we felt and what we discovered afterward was more than enough to tell us you need our help with what you're planning to deal with," Robin informed.

"You know them?" Dawn asked Ash.

"Yeah, the Teen Titans, they helped us out of a jam with Team Eclipse before and it looks like they're just in time, too," Ash nodded.

"We're glad you all came, guys. We got a major problem on our hands and it starts with a capital H," Race said as they then overlooked from a cliff the Heatran Colossal's approach.

"Is that Heatran?" Cyborg asked gravely.

"That's it, alright. But, something's gone wrong with it if it's turned into that creature," Rotom-Dex nodded as he pulled up Heatran's file. "Heatran, the Lava Dome Pokemon. A Fire and Steel Type, while dwelling in caves and digging in with its cross-shaped feet to crawl on ceilings and walls, stories told of this Pokémon being birthed from the boiling magma within Mt. Coronet, its molten-steel body holding many mysteries."

"Here it comes, the confused devil itself," Stoick growled grimly, narrowing his eyes at the Heatran Colossal.

"That monster is an absolute giant," Gobber frowned in agreement, glaring down at the Pokemon Titan. "Maybe as big or bigger than the late Red Death Queen, by all accounts."

"By the looks of it, if the real Heatran is inside that thing, odds are that the Flame Plate Arceus is missing will be there as well," Asha remarked.

"We'll have to find a way to get close to it without burning to death under the perilous might of its flames," Aegis observed as he eyed the Pokemon Titan.

"As long as we don't end up like Hange in the Attack on Titan series after she killed off several Colossal Titans as we've read or watched from the manga or anime, I'm fine with not dying."

"Me, too," Elder and Alder agreed as they steeled themselves despite their fear.

"Well, how do we take that creep down and break Heatran and the Flame Plate free?" Ghost (Dragapult) questioned.

"And, what'll we do with that giant portal thing above us?" Andres added, pointing towards the rift.

"We'll deal with the strange portal later, my boy! First, we must figure out how to put out that fire before it does the forest below and Mt. Coronet any more damage!" Doug insisted.

"And, water is what we need!" Dawn (trainer) decided.

"But, will it work?" asked Piplup.

"Time for a Water Type team-up!" Ash decided.

"No, Ash, Dawn! That is far too reckless, we mustn't act rashly at a time like this," Sol reprimanded.

"Sol is right, children. What we're dealing with is a titan and it's nothing like Team Eclipse let alone Team Rocket and everything else we've experienced before which means we have to think rationally before we act," Virizion agreed grimly.

"They're both right, the situation is way too big for us to deal with using an idea as simple as using water alone!" Brock concurred, knowing exactly what Sol and Virizion are thinking. "This is beyond the scope of a normal Pokemon battle so we need a plan."

"My scans, while we were overtaking Heatran, showed that the temperature caused by whatever power pushed by Heatran and the Flame Plate together to make that monster is rising to at least 500 degrees Fahrenheit, maybe even more. Even if we use water through your Water Pokemon and any dragons that can use it and your Elemental Magic, there's no telling what'll happen if that beast decides to retaliate, making it even harder for us to rescue them," Cyborg noted, knowing they would have to plan out their rescue attempt as well as a plan of attack.

"And, that's if we can stop those fiends from using its power to unlock what looks like a dimensional gate from here," Starfire added, remembering the dimensional gate that started to open again from the Heatran Colossal's Plate Beam.

But, just before the heroes could come up with a plan to destroy the Heatran Colossal and save the real Heatran and the Flame Plate from inside it, Star and Cobalt sensed an oncoming attack from a familiar evolved Poison and Fighting Type as it fired Sludge Bomb straight at them.

"LOOK OUT!" Cobalt shouted as he and Star used Bone Rush to stop the Sludge Bomb attack from hitting their party, the smoke clearing to reveal Saturn's Toxicroak, a Pokemon that is all too familiar to Brock and a certain Croagunk.

"You'll not touch our prime test subject, you meddling kids!" Toxicroak sneered.

"A Toxicroak!" gasped Brock just as Croagunk appeared to face his old arch-rival once again.

"You, HAH!" Croagunk bellowed, using Poison Jab at Toxicroak to force him back before they faced off each other again.

"Toxicroak!"

"He's back!" Pikachu and Piplup snarled, glaring at Croagunk's arch-rival and knowing who came with him.

"Hey! Isn't that-?" Dawn asked, recognizing Toxicroak as well just as Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars arrived to confront the heroes, the Teen Titans, and the Power Rangers as they disembarked their helicopter.

"Team Galactic!" snarled a shocked Ash, seething at his, Brock, and Dawn's old Sinnoh enemies.

"Skuntank/Purrloin, let's go!" Mars and Jupiter called, sending their partners out to join Toxicroak and attack their old enemies as well.

"It's been a while since we've all heard anything from you after Cyrus bailed on you for his own world, Saturn," Casey sniffed as he and his friends all glared at the three TG field commanders as they readied their morphers and their successors prepared to do the same.

"Not long enough, some things with creeps such as you all will never change," Lily remarked.

"Don't take another step if you're thinking about using that Heatran you've mistreated!" Devon snarled.

"What are you all doing here?" Ash demanded furiously.

"I never thought we would be here today to see all of you again and with reinforcements this time, no doubt, including the Power Rangers, the Teen Titans, and especially, the lost Sun Princess and the last Alolan Royal Family," Saturn sneered at the heroes.

"Team Galactic?! The Sinnoh Police Force should've broken you up already!" snapped Brock, also angered by Team Galactic's return.

"Thanks for the worthless explanation."

"Now, if you kids and your pets don't mind, we've got some unfinished business to attend to so I suggest you don't interfere," Mars and Jupiter sneered.

"Of course, you're the ones my visions, the Lake Guardians, and the Creation Trio warned us about along with that creature! You made Heatran into a titan!" Reader realized, seething with fury.

"Mars, Saturn, Jupiter! What are you after and what would you try to use Heatran's powers for?" growled Robin.

"What happens to Heatran will not interfere because you're responsible for the pain he's in! What were you trying to do with him?!" Sarah seethed, reaching for her Sun Sword and pointing it at the Team Galactic field commanders.

"I see no reason to answer that to anybody let alone you, Princess," retorted Saturn with a cruel smirk.

The Heatran Colossal roared again just as the Flame Plate inside it (along with the real Heatran as it sat inside its colossal body, unable to do anything) glowed brightly, its power sensed by Arceus who let out an alerted roar to signal his children to jump in and help. Before long, the heroes were joined by Azelf, Uxie, Mesprit, Dialga, Palkia, and Giratina (the Renegade Pokemon transforming into Altered Form after crossing over from the Reverse World), causing Sarah to notice her Pokemon Gems of them as they floated out of her satchel containig them and into her hands as they glowed brightly in response to their return.

Feeling their presence, Brock turned and he was surprised to find the Legendaries that helped him and his friends join in the fight, "Huh? Hey, look over there!"

"It's Azelf!"

"Uxie!" "Mesprit, too!" Ash, Ravi, and Dawn (trainer) gasped in surprise.

"Guys, you made it!" Sarah shouted, relieved to see the Lake Guardians and the Creation Trio returning to help them.

"Heatran!"

"A-A-Are you i-i-i-in t-there?"

"It's us! Uxie, Azelf, and Mesprit!" Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit called as they flew in circles above the Heatran Colossal, trying to see if they can reach out to Heatran from within its titan and stop the beast holding it and the Flame Plate prisoner before the worst happens.

Saturn noticed what they're trying to do and he barked in defiance, "Are they trying to stop us? Grr, I won't allow it!"

"Heatran!"

"Don't you recognize us?!"

"W-We just w-w-want to h-help y-you!"

But, Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit's pleas got them nowhere; the Heatran Colossal just roared at them, forcing them to stop and look on in surprise and dismay, wondering what Team Galactic had done to the real Heatran and the Flame Plate that caused them to be within the beast before them, the Creation Trio, and their friends. From within the growing flames, however, as the titan began to change forms from just a giant flurry of flames to an actual demon of lava while growing even bigger, they saw what looked like a plate-shaped light at the center of the beast in the midst of the molten lava that made up the titan's body.

"Oh... Holy Arceus!"

"Oh, my!"

"What the Odin-?!"

"What is that thing?!"

"No way!"

"That can't be real!"

"Throw me to the bottom of Old Wela!"

"Great Gyaradoses, look at that!"

"Yuck! What a monster!"

"It's a terrible-looking thing!" Doug, Delilah, Shadow, Zorro, Zoey (Yellow BM Ranger), Izzy (Green DF Ranger), Turtonator, Tsareena, Sarah's Piplup, and Frosmoth gasped in total shock and horror.

"Now, it's made up of molten lava and not just flames! This whole mountain and the forest below will be burned to the ground if it unleashes all of that magma on us and Calavine City should it choose to do so!" Aurora frowned, trying to contain her shock.

"Totally not cool, dudes!" Zuma whimpered slightly.

"It's HUGE, CRAZY HUGE!" Izzy (unicorn) cried in alarm.

"You're right; it's even bigger and more powerful than Lugia or even Ho-Oh when they're standing on their feet and talons, crazy," breathed a horrified Aurorus.

"It could totally trip out this big daddy mountain we're on and make it a volcano if it keeps on rampaging!" Liberty agreed, greatly worried.

"Big enough to take out Mt. Coronet and the entire city and us with it if we don't do something and way too big to stop with simple means like water alone!" Cyborg agreed, checking the latest energy readings of the Heatran Colossal from his computer systems.

Tundra gasped as she saw the Heatran Colossal preparing to roar as it was about to unleash its next level of terrifying power in its new form, "It's gonna rampage again, LOOK OUT!"

"Get back!" Tai Lung shouted at the top of his lungs causing everybody to jump or run back as the Heatran Colossal unleashed a wave of lava and caused a massive explosion that set the rest of the mountain face it was on ablaze.

The rest of the land below it that it had been trudging across had already been completely engulfed in flames and there was virtually nothing left of the homes that the nearby Pokemon that fled for their lives once had. Team Galactic and the heroes rushed to see the monster as it continued to make its way to the Spear Pillar while setting off molten waves of magma around it, one of which was heading towards the Lake Guardians which they managed to dispel by using a combined Psychic attack.

Then, the colossal fired another wave of molten magma as it then created another explosion but this time, it was much more powerful at close range which caused Pikachu and Piplup to be blown back harshly toward their human friends (Ash and Dawn managing to catch them safely) while the others huddled together and held their ground to prevent themselves from being blown away. But, it didn't stop the smoke from the explosion from blinding everybody and making them cough as they were completely coated in it, prompting Drogon, Zephyr, and the other dragons to flap their wings and dispel the smoke.

As they did so, the heroes were shocked and horrified to discover that the entirety of the forest was now truly nothing left but a dark and barren field of flames and volcanic ash. Fluttershy screamed in terror and turned away as Discord held her gingerly to shield her from the awful sight before them.

"I don't believe it!"

"Guys, look! The forest!"

"Oh, no!"

"The whole forest, it's gone!" Solon, Steel, Hitch, and Sarah gasped, completely aghast at the destruction of the forest.

The Heatran Colossal was unable to move after making such a powerful blast for a short time so taking the opportunity before them to find Heatran and the Flame Plate, the Lake guardians used Foresight to search for the Pokemon and Life Plate in question. And, there, deep within the core of the Heatran Colossal was the Flame Plate, and behind it, the real Heatran, both of them bound and trapped inside with no way of escape.

"There!" they cried in silent shock and awe, lucky that they were able to find the missing Life Plate of their creator/father AND Heatran together.

Back at Calavine City's Hisuian village recreation, after being informed by Dawn about the warning the heroes were given by Sinnoh's Legendaries and Reader's visions and witnessing everything from a distance, Cynthia realized that something must be horribly wrong. She removed her hairpin and let her hair down to prepare to join her friends in dealing with the crisis before them while everybody from inside the Pokemon Center witnessed everything being reported.

"There has been a sudden increase in air temperature in the vicinity of Mt Coronet. The Sinnoh Weather Service has determined that the cause is the mountain forest fire you're now seeing."

The sky above the Spear Pillar darkened as the Heatran Colossal stomped its way over while continuing to unleash a trail of fire, lava, and destruction in its wake, the entire area growing hotter and hotter by the minute and the dimensional gate drawing closer to being opened (slowly increasing Team Galactic's chances of success to find and retrieve Cyrus from his new world prison). Dawn's Piplup was deeply worried about the turn of events that had taken place and the danger factor involved in the deadliest crisis he and her friends had faced so far but he had to wipe away a sweat drop on his head as he started to sweat.

"The heat is intense," Dawn (trainer) winced.

"It's terrible," Discord simply said sadly, continuing to hold a devastated Fluttershy while she continued to sob uncontrollably.

"Solon, are you alright?" Ollie asked as he and his friends noticed something off with the Solonosaurus in the heat as she started to groan and spark.

"Solon!" Aiyon and Zayto gasped worriedly as they came to and held her gently.

"Solon, are you okay?" Zayto quizzed, feeling scared for his oldest friend and mother figure.

"Oh... I don't think this intense heat and I agree, kids," Solon groaned, her systems continuing to spark from the heat. "I feel like shutting down the more I continue to burn up..."

Even Cruise, Smash, and Jax weren't looking so good as their systems became dangerously hot with all three of the Beast Bots groaning in pain and even Steel's body couldn't handle the extreme heat as he quipped while panting, "Uh, Bro, I don't feel so good right now..."

"Cruise! Oh, man!"

"Jax, no!"

"Smash! Hang in there, buddy!" Devon, Zoey (Yellow Ranger), and Ravi cried in alarm, rushing to their partners.

"Steel, your body and systems can't cope with the extreme heat from the titan and neither could the Beast Bots," Nate said, gently holding onto his brother.

"Nate, Zayto, get Solon, Steel, Cruise, Smash, and Jax to Aurorus and have them stick with her at all times. We got to get them cooled down, now," Sarah urged.

Nate and Zayto nodded in agreement as they, Zoey, Devon, and Ravi gently led their partners and Solon to the Tundra Pokemon as they coaxed, "Come on, Steel."

"Right here, Solon."

"But, what happened to Heatran?"

"Where is he?" Nyasi and Cyndaquil asked worriedly.

"I have a feeling the Flame Plate is responsible and the real Heatran is probably trapped somewhere within that creature," Entei suggested.

"And, it must be that very power other than Heatran that's at work here," Brock nodded, having a feeling what Entei was getting at with his reasoning despite not fluently understanding Pokemon Speak.

The Heatran Colossal roared menacingly once again as the dimensional gate drew even closer to opening and giving Team Galactic their long-awaited opportunity to reach Cyrus and drag him back to them, lightning striking down on the Spear Pillar as the gate sparked violently. The heroes all gasped at the sight, knowing they were running out of time and they had to act fast before Ash, Dawn, and Brock's old Sinnoh enemies carry out their diabolical plans.

"What's happening?" Dom asked before the heroes ended up in Arceus' dimension, but this time, through the means of a vision that the Lake Guardians are transmitting to them.

"Wait, this feels familiar," Camille informed as they saw what the Lake Guardians had found within the Heatran Colossal which was the Flame Plate and the real Heatran trapped from within before they were returned to their dimension.

"Amazing! It looks like the Lake Guardians have found Heatran and Arceus' Flame Plate!" Jarrod gasped in amazement and realization.

"He was really there, in the fire!"

"So, then, that Pokemon with the Flame Plate was the real Heatran?" Ash and Dawn put in.

"Yeah, that huge body must be made of energy in the form of Heatran through fire and molten lava," Brock confirmed as the Heatran Colossal continued to march up to the Spear Pillar with the Lake Guardians tailing it.

"It's just like in my visions but it also looks like Heatran was in some form of a trance while he was bound to that monster," Reader added.

"Then, is he rampaging because of the Flame Plate trapped with him?" Dawn quizzed in realization.

"Yeah, I have a feeling Team Galactic must've found it some time ago after they escaped from the Sinnoh Police Force and captured and used Heatran to power it up for some kind of mission they had in mind," Kiawe nodded.

"And, it must have something to do with that thing in the sky. It's definitely nothing like an Ultra Wormhole, that's for sure," Mallow concurred, seeing the dimensional gate slowly opening.

Saturn, Mars, and Jupiter (joined by their partners) looked towards the Lake Guardians trailing behind the Heatrn Colossal, knowing they have to stop not just them, but also the Creation Trio, and the heroes from reaching the titan and rescuing Heatran and the Flame Plate before their plans to save Cyrus would be toast (no pun intended) and the dimensional gate will close, for good.

"The Lake Guardians," seethed Saturn before he and Toxicroak took action. "Now, Toxicroak, use Sludge Bomb!"

Mars and Jupiter followed suit as they commanded Purugly and Skuntank to attack, "Now, Skuntank, use your Flamethrower!"

"Purugly, use Shadow Ball!"

"Time to get muddy, kids!"

"Burn, Baby, burn!"

"You're, GROUNDED!"

Purugly, Toxicroak, and Skuntank fired all of their attacks at once to take down the Lake Guardians which drew the attention, shock, and horror of the heroes as they were too slow to react in time but luckily, Dialga and Palkia intervened in time as they tanked the attacks with their bodies, roaring angrily and in defiance against their former captors to protect their younger siblings.

"Stop, Team Galactic!" "What do you maniacs think you're doing?!" Ash and Astrid shouted.

"ENOUGH!" Pikachu snapped.

"Saturn, Mars, Jupiter, stop this!" Blitz called, glaring daggers at the TG field commanders,

"All right, you galactic meanies! This has gone far enough!" Curly agreed, angrily gnashing her teeth at Team Galactic as she and her crush jumped off of Sarah's shoulders and stood in front of the heroes with Croagunk, Pikachu, and Dawn's Piplup as they confronted Saturn, Mars, Jupiter, and their partners.

"How is interfering with us every step of the way going to help you?" Jupiter scoffed in disgust at the heroes. "In any case, you're too late now."

"I want Pokemon and creatures of all sorts to live free!"

"We all do!"

"Azelf and the others want us to help them and that's what we'll do!" Ash, Lillie, and Dawn (trainer) spoke defiantly.

"My, my, playing the hero game, huh?" Mars sneered with a mocking smirk.

"We're not playing, as you know! What we do is the real deal and that's what we're all believing in!" Sarah snapped, glaring at Mars. "But, there's one thing I want to know since you already know about Arceus' Flame Plate. What were you trying to do with it and Heatran?"

"HA! You think you're so smart knowing about the Flame Plate, eh, Princess? You're curious," Jupiter smirked darkly along with Mars. "We can see that, alright, we'll tell you. It won't do you much good since there's nothing you can do at this time and it's already too late."

"You see, this Life Plate we've managed to acquire some time after we managed to slip through the grasp of the Sinnoh Police Force wants to return to its home. Back to its original owner, one I'm sure you all know very well, the Original One: Arceus. Because of that and our efforts to do so with Heatran's power, the dimensional gate will open again and that's just what we want. Nothing more, nothing less."

"A dimensional gate?"

"Goodness me!"

"So, that explains that tear in the sky we saw several moments ago and now."

"What could you rampaging galaxy bulls hope to break out by breaking the barrier between dimensions again?" Nikki, David, Donna (former queen), and James questioned suspiciously.

"What exactly would you need that dimensional abomination for?" Gobber asked, narrowing his eyes at Team Galactic in a deep glare.

"What we want is one thing with us, to complete Team Galactic's ranks and resume our mission for a new world. And, that thing is Master Cyrus," Mars declared, shocking everybody that had heard about Team Galactic's downfall.

"Cyrus?!"

"The boss of you planetary morons?!" Brock and Zorua spluttered in shock.

"So, that's it, you're still sore over the fact that your leader abandoned you and vanished through the dimensional gate when it was last opened years ago," Race realized, seeing what Team Galactic was getting at now.

"Oh, I get it; you wanted to experiment with Heatran's power on the Flame Plate, knowing that the great influx of power they would generate would allow you to open the dimensional gate and get your me-me-me leader back despite his desperate wish to have the new world for only himself and not share it with you. And, yet, when that blew up in your faces and Heatran's Flash Fire ability when haywire, he absorbed all that power, and thus, the Heatran Colossal titan was born, trapping the real Heatran and the Flame Plate inside its massive body," snarled Terrakion as he also realized what Team Galactic wanted to do to get Cyrus back with them.

"You wanted to break this world again by using the Flame Plate and Heatran's power but when that backfired and the Heatran Colossal appeared, you realized it was the real key to opening the dimensional gate and decided to exploit it just to get your boss back!" Amber shouted, aghast.

"That's about as low as selfish idiots like you can get! You're not even human!" Keldeo spat furiously, gnashing his teeth.

"Don't tell me that you would go to such lengths to get back the one person who meant so much to you, the one who threw you all out of his life for his own twisted world, just so you can continue your diabolical mission for a new world without war at the cost of our home?!" Sarah seethed with fury, utterly disgusted with Team Galactic.

"Hmph, you and your big mouth," sniffed Saturn, unamused at Mars for spilling the beans on their syndicate's motive while his fellow commander scoffed indifferently.

Nuraiah seethed with rage at Team Galactic and tried to control herself so as not to tear the three field commanders and their Pokemon apart herself while her fellow spirits did the same. All the while, she just spat in no uncertainty, "You're all monsters."

"Hmph, what does it matter? After all, you meddlers won't be needed in our new world, anyway, Princess. Your knowing won't affect anything," Jupiter scoffed, sneering.

"Monsters, are we?!" snarled Purugly, not taking too kindly to Nuraiah's insult.

"You got quite a spine, you overgrown alleycat!" Skuntank taunted in agreement, also feeling insulted.

"We'll use all we have to get rid of you all so our path to retrieving Master Cyrus will be all clear and our true mission will begin in earnest, won't we?"

"Of course, we will!" Saturn concurred, smirking.

"Then, let's end this!" Toxicroak roared, ready to attack.

"You've threatened this world for far too long from what I heard from my family and friends, Team Galactic!" Jakanee growled.

"You will not destroy this world for the ill-placed and pitifully misguided sake of creating a new one of your own making!"

"As before with Ash and his old friends, the Lake Guardians, Dialga, and Palkia all those years ago, this is where you'll fall!" Suicune and Raikou roared defiantly.

"You won't take this world from us without a fight!"

"Not while we're here!" Lily (Yellow JF Ranger) and Robin declared as everybody on the heroes' side got into battle stances.

"The Sinnoh Police Force may have failed to hold you all in and break you up for your crimes against all of us the first time, Saturn, Mars, Jupiter. But, today, on behalf of them and all of Sinnoh, its Legendaries, Heatran, and Arceus himself, we're going to destroy you, Team Galactic, and your plans to bring back Cyrus and create a cruel new world! Together, as a team!" Nate declared to Team Galactic spitefully and proudly as all four Power Ranger teams stood together and began to morph.

"It's Morphin' Time!" the rangers shouted, bringing out and activating their Morphers.

"Dino Fury Key, activate!"

"Poke-X Key, activate!"

"Jungle Beast...!"

"Activate...!"

But, Team Galactic wasn't having any of it, "Now, use Shadow Ball!"

"Use Flamethrower!"

"Ziracon, use Ice Beam!"

"Persian/Mischief, use Power Gem/Focus Blast!"

"Use Bubblebeam!" Doug, Delilah, Asha, and Dawn commanded their chosen Pokemon.

"Link to Morphin' Grid!"

"...Spirit unleashed!"

"...Beast Power, HA!"

Purugly and Skuntank's Shadow Ball and Flamethrower were canceled by Ziracon, Persian, Mischief, and Dawn's Piplup's Ice Beam, Power Gem, Focus Blast, and Bubblebeam attacks and thankfully, they bought all of the Power Rangers gathered more than enough time to complete their morphs to become the Power Rangers Jungle Fury (with Jarrod and Camille donning their Beast Armor again), the Power Rangers Dino Fury, the Power Rangers Beast Morphers (with Steel deciding to take a chance earlier and join his friends and brother and help them all in the fight), and the Power Rangers Ultra Rescue once more. The sight of twenty-four Power Rangers against them and on the heroes' side shocked Saturn, Jupiter, and Mars as they took in the four teams and inwardly grimaced at the odds they and their partners were now facing.

"We summon the animal spirits from within! Power Rangers Jungle Fury!"

"Dino Fury Power!"

"Unleash the Beast!"

"Rangers Forever, Defenders Together! Power Rangers Ultra Rescue!"

"Whoa..." Jakanee gasped in silent shock, seeing four Power Ranger teams before her and her new family which included Sarah.

"Power Rangers?!"

"But, how? They're just kids!" Jupiter and Mars gawked along with a shocked Purugly and Skuntank.

"You're all Power Rangers?! Ugh, no matter, this makes no difference whatsoever!"

"You got that right, Boss!" Saturn and Toxicroak bantered.

"Just try and stop us now, Saturn! We're gonna save Heatran and the world, retrieve the Flame Plate, and destroy the Heatran Colossal, you hear me?!" Ash bellowed as he and the others drew their weapons (now known as PokeFury Sabers) while Sarah kept her family's Sun Sword at hand while summoning her Moon Shield and Race brought out his Beast-X Pyroar Fang and his Bio Lion Talon.

"It's because of your selfishness that so many Pokemon had to flee!" Dawn added, remembering the forest Pokemon fleeing for their lives.

"All those Pokemon, having their home destroyed by you mad monsters, and for what? Just to bring back your crazed madman so you can create a new world or universe under your tyrannical rule?!" Fluttershy concurred, mad tears flowing from her eyes.

"Your selfish actions have hurt so many of those Pokemon and the innocent creatures living with them in perfect harmony!"

"Because of you and your insolence, being the selfish monsters you are, we were forced to stand by and watch while their forest was burned to the ground in an instant! You've robbed all the Pokemon and creatures living in this area the home they loved so dearly!" Delilah and Doug ranted angrily.

"Shut up! Spare us your heroic dribble, as if any of us cared for what happened to that worthless, miserable forest!" Jupiter snarled, angered at being lectured by the heroes. "As I told you, we have a job to do and that's to bring Master Cyrus back and create the new world we've all dreamed of so we can once again rise to eternal glory!"

"Man, from what we've heard from the reports involving you and your downfall all those years ago, I bet Cyrus, being the charismatic yet thick-headed and devious brainiac that he is, didn't care about you one bit," Cyborg scoffed as he and the other Teen Titans prepared to fight.

"People such as your so-called 'boss' make me sick!" Lolita concurred, drawing out her claws as she glared at Purugly, looking to fight with her.

"A leader is only as strong as his or her weakest links; Cyrus, from what I can assume from everything Ash, Dawn, and Brock told us along the way here, probably only saw you as nothing but pawns, indispensable servants he only saw as beneath him. They told us they heard him dump you all the moment his so-called 'new world' appeared and doom himself as he crossed over and submitted himself to a fate worse than death," Akira scoffed in disgust.

"Your time has come once again, Team Galactic!" Zayto bellowed as the Dino Fury team prepared to fight.

Jupiter scoffed with a smirk as she taunted, "What are you going to do about it? Once Master Cyrus is back and he sees our worth, all of you will be nothing more than a blip in our new world's history."

"It would be foolish of you to go down the same path that once destroyed you and doomed your leader. And, it would be wise of you not to underestimate the princess, her friends, her family, and our allies," Reshiram warned, glaring daggers at Jupiter.

"Our world will never fall, Team Galactic. Because, despite all the wars, despite the strife and conflicts, despite the problems caused by anger and hate, underneath it all, this is a beautiful world despite how cruel it can be. And, you have no right to change that!" Sarah finished as she and Race nodded and brought out their Element Boosters from their Dino Gadgets.

"Ready, Element Booster!"

"Heads up, guys! You're about to get a new armor upgrade!" she called to her and her boyfriend's Pokemon before they activated their Element Boosters, attaching them to their bracers that are attached to their morphers when morphed.

"Pokemon Armor, activate!" the two shouted as their Pokemon glowed and gained new crystal armor that had small emblems of their respective elements and increased their stamina, endurance, defense, and attack power altogether.

But, Sarah wasn't done yet as she activated her Beast-X Dragon Armor for all of her dragons including Drogon and Zephyr, "Dragon Armor, get in gear!"

Once she and Race were finished and after deciding to take on the Heatran Colossal with their Pokemon and dragons, they turned to their friends and allies and her family to give them one last cheer, "Zayto, Ash, Casey, guys, you take Team Galactic! We'll go after the Flame Plate and Heatran!"

"Because our world is truly a beautiful thing worth fighting for!" Race finished.

Then, the two shouted, "POWER RANGERS AND POKEMON FOREVER!"

Thus, prompting the others to proudly return, "POWER RANGERS AND POKEMON FOREVER!"

"Isn't that quaint but cute, 'Power Rangers and Pokemon forever!'? They're annoying me with all that hero talk," snorted Mars with an unimpressed smirk.

"But, being ambitious is a good thing, even if the time they have left is so short," whispered Jupiter, still keeping a devious smirk.

"You're right. But still, even with her numbers and all the power the princess and her friends can throw at Heatran and us, I'm afraid we won't allow any of them, not even her, to be an obstacle between us and the new world," Mars continued, directing her comment to Sarah.

"We and our forces will secure Heatran's path forward, we can't allow the princess, her boyfriend, and their army to approach. No matter what happens, our plan will be seen to the end; Heatran must proceed," Saturn noted, knowing what they must do.

"That's obvious," remarked Mars knowingly.

Jupiter nodded as she commanded Purugly, Toxicroak, and Skuntank to attack again with another convergence of Flamethrower, Shadow Ball, and Sludge Bomb again, "Now, you three, attack together!"

"Pikachu/Togedemaru, Thunderbolt/Zing Zap!"

"Popplio/Piplup, Bubblebeam!" Ash, Sophocles, Dawn, and Lana shouted, commencing the first counter to Team Galactic's Pokemon.

"Zeraora, use Drain Punch! And, let's get to the Heatran Colossal once we got an opening!" Sarah called to her Thunderclap Pokemon, all five Pokemon firing off their respective attacks at Sludge Bomb, Flamethrower, and Shadow Bomb that resulted in a cloud of smoke. "Now, use Plasma Fists at Purugly and we'll make a run for Heatran!"

Charging himself up with the electrons he absorbed from Pikachu's Thunderbolts and the energy he sapped from Purugly using Drain Punch, Zeraora roared loudly as he then slammed his electrified fists into the ground, sending a powerful stream of electricity toward the Tiger Cat Pokemon, dealing it some damage that allowed Team Galactic to be distracted long enough for Sarah, Race, their Pokemon, and the dragons to run to Heatran.

"Let's go!" Sarah shouted as they ran or flew towards the Heatran-like monster.

"Huh, where do you think you're going?! Come back here!" Jupiter shouted, seeing Race, Sarah, their dragons, and their Pokemon running towards the Heatran Colossal to free Heatran and the Flame Plate.

"Just let them go, there's no point in stopping them knowing that they've doomed themselves with their futile effort to stop Heatran," snorted Mars.

"You're right, hmm... Even if they try to break Heatran free from its prison and destroy our only way through the dimensional gate, it'll still be too late for them to act in time before we cross over and look for Master Cyrus," Jupiter nodded, seeing that it would be a supposed win-win for Team Galactic.

"As long as we hold on to our goal to save Master Cyrus and ensure Heatran's accent isn't disturbed, we'll be victorious once more! Toxicroak, don't hold back, take care of the small fry!" Saturn concurred, ordering Toxicorak to go all out on their enemies with Purugly and Skuntank to continue on the offense as they fired their attacks again.

"Not so fast!" Casey shouted as he, Lily, R.J., and Theo summoned their animal spirits to attack them.

"Call to the beast inside, free the tiger/cheetah/jaguar!" the three original Jungle Fury rangers shouted while R.J. shot his wolf spirit at Skuntank.

"Rhino Blade!" Dom bellowed, using his Rhino Blaster in Blade Mode to spin and chop at Toxicroak's Sludge Bombs before they exploded, making another dust cloud that allowed Devon, Zoey, Ravi, Nate, and Steel to use their Beast-X Sabers and Striker Sabers to knock the Toxic Mouth Pokemon back.

"We'll be cutting it close for you in this heat, Steel!" Nate warned his brother.

"Don't worry, Bro! I got this now that I'm cool again thanks to Aurorus!" Steel reassured as they and their friends charged up their sabers.

"Scarab Power!"

"Mantis Power!"

"Striker Beast Slash!"

"Beast-X Slash!" the Beast Morphers team shouted as they attacked Toxicroak.

"Hey, Ash, guys, Race, Sarah!" Brock called, drawing the attention of his friends (including Race and Sarah just before they reached the Heatran Colossal). "I'll help the others, the rangers, and your family hold off Team Galactic while you all join up with Dialga, Palkia, Giratina, Azelf, Uxie, and Mesprit to help Heatran!"

"Actually, I'd rather you and my family and our predecessors not go at them alone on your part, Brock! I'll have Entei, Suicune, Raikou, Calyrex, his sons, and my Urishifus stay with you to give you guys a hand! Better safe than sorry!" Sarah said, deciding to give Brock some backup.

"Okay, Brock! Asha and I will leave Willow with you, her webs will come in handy if you need them to capture Team Galactic!" agreed Aiyon, lending him Willow while Asha agrees to his solution with a nod.

"Right, thanks!" Brock thanked.

"Be careful, Brock!" Dawn spoke, concerned for her old friend.

"I will, don't worry," the Pokemon-Doctor-in-Training reassured as the gang left, Sarah whistling for Rapidash and getting on board along with Blitz and Curly while Race rode on Aurequine and they and the others rode, ran, and flew off while Brock, the rest of Sarah's family, and the Power Rangers stayed behind.

"Toxicroak, stop them!" Saturn countered, having Toxicroak go after them only to be stopped by his old rival as Croagunk blocked his way and then he was knocked back by Hashimoto's Surging Strikes attack, forcing Purugly and Skuntank to join him as reinforcements.

"Now, you're facing us and the Power Rangers! Go, Steelix! Go, Blissey!" Brock bellowed, summoning his old friend from Kanto (whom he brought along with to help him with his medical studies and training as a Pokemon Doctor) and his beloved medical assistant as they prepared to fight Team Galactic.

"This snake's gonna rock and roll!" Steelix roared, ready for his first and only battle against Team Galactic.

"Ready!" Blissey added, steeling herself for the fight of her life.

"Double Team, Brock?" Zayto asked, looking at the young Pokemon Doctor.

"You take the front lines with the first move! We'll cover you with our Battle Armor," Amelia suggested as she and her entire team took out their Battle Armor Keys and started activating them via their Chromafury Sabers and Mosa Blaster.

Brock nodded in agreement to the idea, "You got it. Steelix, use Stone Edge! Blissey, use Dazzling Gleam!"

"Time to rock and roll, dudes!" Steelix roared toward his enemies, firing a line of glowing rocks from the ground after slamming his tail onto it.

"Time...to SHIIIIIIIIINE!" bellowed Blissey, coating herself in a rainbow Fairy Type aura and charging at Skuntank and Purugly.

"Blazing Battle Armor!"

"Electro Battle Armor!"

"Blazing/Electro Fury Strike/Blast!" Izzy and Javi cried, donning the Blazing and Electro Battle Armor respectively while firing a blast of electricity and delivering a slash of fire straight at Purugly and Skuntank as well.

The two enemy Pokemon belonging to Mars and Jupiter had no response to the oncoming attacks coming at once and as they were unable to dodge in time, they were hit hard and split up from Steelix's Stone Edge before Blissey's Dazzling Gleam and Izzy and Javi's attacks rammed her at full force, making her fly back in pain from the blasts and leaving her wide open for a follow-up assault.

"Hit it, with Mega Punch!"

"Wicked Blow!" Ching Wan added, charging his Dark Type energy and channeling his Tiger-Leopard Style before he joined Blissey as she charged up her energy for a Mega Punch while charging at Purugly.

"Ready, set! Here's...the Mega Punch Pitch!" Blissey shouted as she and Ching Wan then punched Purugly hard in the face.

"Now, feel the rampage of our Extreme Speed!" Entei roared as he, Raikou, and Suicune used Extreme Speed to get the jump on Skuntank and bash him back hard but not without playing a little game of Hot Potato with it before actually knocking him back.

"Smash Battle Armor!" Ollie roared, punching and wailing on Purugly and Skuntank with jab after jab and cross punch after cross punch like he was in a makeshift boxing match via the Smash Battle Armor he was wearing.
