It was a beautiful afternoon in Argules, a quiet and crowded metropolis of Pokémon life located in the water country. In the city center there was a guild that was the former palace of the local monarchy and now made room for all of the city and the country. The name of the guild is Glory, named after the former king's last name. This moment was very special for the entire guild, with new and cheerful faces of Pokémon who had just graduated and would go on his adventures around the world to help their peers.
They were all in the main hall of the guild, where the head of the local, the Houndoom Trevor, gave his graduation speech:
TREVOR: Hehe, it seems like yesterday I was seeing each of you asking to be operating or rescue teams. I do not deny that I am proud to see who could get that far, BUT THE JOKE IS OVER HERE!! The life of a Pokémon who chooses this path is not him, but all he will live to help or goals they want to pursue! You will risk their lives for it, and will have joys and sorrows as anyone who will come or has come before you! They consider themselves victorious by get here. GOOD LUCK TO ALL AND COMPASSION OF ARCEUS HAVE THEIR SOULS!!
Among the students, there was a Totodile wearing a red bow tie he was very happy to finally have achieved what most craved. Now you could do the same job his father and mother, who unfortunately could not be with him during his graduation for reasons that when the Totodile did not care. He was very happy and a little embarrassed because of his younger brother who was in the audience, almost going crazy cheering for him. Saren Hidron, his younger brother, was a Larvitar with blue scarf and a black backpack that was screaming very energetically alongside her friend, Ashley Flamey the Charmander, who wore a tiara with a sapphire in front:
Saren: PEOPLE LOOK, MY BROTHER GOT, I ALWAYS KNEW YOU WOULD BE SOMEONE IN LIFE, is L is U is K is E ... LUKE LUKE LUKE !!
The small Charmander from his side that was half ashamed said:
ASHLEY: Saren not think Luke is bothered with all this? You're calling too much attention to us.
Saren tells Ashley with sparkling eyes:
Saren: Ashley, you're not excited? Now that Luke is an explorer we can all finally go on journey!
Ashley was silent with his mouth open for a moment and then shouted:
ASHLEY: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA LUKE, YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!!!!
The Totodile was trying to ignore the two Pokémon. Inside, it was divided to be the best day of your life and at the same time be the most shameful. Luke's side was a Charmeleon with a dark blue scarf kept looking for Totodile and said:
CODY: Luke, it's really cool that we finally we form, is not it?
Luke then smiled and said:
LUKE: Really, I do not believe I'll help rescue Pokémon. And Cody, I'm glad to know that you will be a Soldier! I wish you much luck!!
Cody was redder than usual and spoke with its flame burning:
CODY: Yeah I'm excited, but I'm sad not being able to see you or you will not be part of my team. You've always been of great help, Luke.
Luke says, laughing humbly:
LUKE: You've always been better than me, you will do very well. After all, you are the strongest Charmeleon I know.
They both smiled at each other, not taking too long for the ceremony come to an end, and the Larvitar go running to the Totodile and saying very excited:
Saren: I can not believe that we can finally go out and rescue Pokémon together, it will be amazing! Like, look just imagine, Hidron brothers to the rescue!
Trevor comes up it brings Saren and says:
TREVOR: More like Hidron to the rescue, because a certain brother is not yet formed.
Saren replied smiling with an air of cunning:
Saren: Relaxes guild master. Unlike a certain someone who drools the opposite sex, I'm not in such a hurry ...
The Houndoom blushed and said with shame and shyness that obviously did not:
TREVOR: Your sick brat not wait to get rid of you, and amm ... * cough cough * .... Luke congratulations! It is an honor to present you with the gadget and exploration Connect Orb, but still miss you set them to what you want to be. So, you want to be a savior or an explorer?
Luke then says with a cynical guy and a little embarrassed:
LUKE: Actually, I still do not know what to do now. I just wanted to make me even, and really for now do not know what to do.
Trevor was a little disappointed, but it was something common among young Pokémon, and the choice was really difficult. The Houndoom then looked away and saw Cody, who seemed to be sad. Then he took a deep breath and said:
TREVOR: Cody, the time has come. Come with me.
Cody ducked his head in a sign of respect and followed the Pokémon. Luke then presses the foot of his friend and gives a sporty look to it, making the Charmeleon respond with his own smile. Stroking his head slightly from Totodile, he went his way with Houndoom. Ashley then appears and gives a big hug in his older brother and wish much luck to him. The Charmander then let's embrace and saw him getting farther and farther away to get into Trevor's room. The Totodile then look at Ashley, who seemed sad, and asks:
LUKE: You're right Ashley?
Ashley hugs Luke, leaving visibly upset Saren. Then Charmander says:
ASHLEY: Luke, thanks for being a great friend of my brother. But now he is following the path of our father, and I hope he does not end up like him.
Saren and Luke knew what had happened to the father of her friends. He was a Soldier, a Pokémon group trained to stop known as Hellstalkers, which are Pokémon controlled by the entity known as Dark Matter, which had been destroyed some time, but in recent years began to speak again, but with different standards. Saren asks something he was curious was already times:
Saren: Ashley, we all have to deal with death in our profession, why then Hellstalkers cause this fear in particular?
Ashley responds with much regret:
ASHLEY: Being petrified is not necessarily die. They steal your vitality, turning your body into stone, but you do not always die in the process. You just there, paralyzed, seeing everything without feeling or do anything, which is a terrible situation. Over time, you will slowly dying, which is much more painful. And not all Pokémon that saw stone can be brought back my father for example.
The Charmander was about to cry when Larvitar strap of your backpack a lava-cookie and gives Ashley looking surprise to him saying:
Saren: I know who are your favorites, and do not want to see you sad.
Ashley then embraces strong Saren. Luke decides to leave them alone to try to talk to his father pikes, one Feraligatr who was a famous explorer and was now in a very important mission in the country of grass. At the time, he seemed to be busy with his work, for not answering your Gadget. Then the Larvitar appeared with a smile a little forced, perhaps having empathy for her friend's sadness and saying,
Saren: Luke, we can go in the bookstore? I want to see if you got the new copies of my favorite books.
Luke saw that his brother wanted to cheer up and read it could be something to let him happy. So Totodile accepted right away the request of his brother, and they went together to the bookstore. At that time, Trevor was in his private room with Cody and Lucario who wore an earring which had its mega stone and seemed to be impatient. He then said:
REX: How long must I wait here?! I have more to do and you too!
Rex then pointed to Cody, who appeared to be uncomfortable with it all. The Houndoom then said:
TREVOR: Rex Volantod, you are a certain Lucario, but Cody Flamey seems not to join the Soldiers. Certainly make him?
Rex roared for a moment and says, trying to stay as calm as possible:
REX: When we found another Soldier, he has to serve Xerneas madame. He loses this right to choose. So I will be very clear to you: you come with me for good or bad, but you come with me you will come!!
The comment left Trevor furious, and made him hit the ground very angry. He was about to attack the Lucario when Charmeleon said:
CODY: CHEF IS OKAY!! That's my responsibility, and unfortunately I can not go against it. Thanks for trying to help me, but now there's no way.
The Charmeleon goes to Lucario, and salutes him. Rex smiles and says:
REX: See how it does not hurt to accept their duties? Come on, my partner is setting a trap for Hellstalker this city, and your help will be very useful.
The two Pokémon then leave the Houndoom room, which is extremely sad to lose another of his students for this medium; It was already night when the Pokémon arrived at the bookstore, and Saren was very cheerful. He was leafing through a book about a samurai. Luke is curious to see it and then asks him:
LUKE: Saren you're only folhando this book will not read?
Saren then replies:
Saren: I do not need, the only good things in the Rocket Samurott book are the drawings. Since canceling the previous story, I never became interested in reading anything this author. But I have to admit that the draw Samurott well.
Luke says a little sad:
LUKE: It's a shame we only know even draw Samurott well, the other Pokémon me seem kind of botched.
Saren then saw that Luke was holding an ancient human literature, and asks:
Saren: Luke, I do not know why you love to read these stories of Pokémon trainers. It seems to slave labor.
Luke replied smiling while reading his book:
LUKE: I do not think it was a different time for Pokémon. Outside this guy Red seemed to treat them very well. Moreover, fighting is part of our lives, that's how we grow, learn and evolve. It was so old and is so today, not in the same way, but with the same principle.
The Larvitar is thoughtful and says:
Saren: Will we ever learn another way to grow without hurting our fellow man?
Luke then sat there next reading the book, wondering what Saren had said. Suddenly, his right hand starts to drop a strange glow, making the Pokémon scare and quickly take your tie. He collapsed and rolled up in his hand. The Totodile then looks around and thanks that no one had noticed. Only a Jolteon that was there in the bookstore noticed something strange and yet familiar. A power that he felt for some time. After walking a little the place, he noted the source, who was sitting reading Luke.
Nero the Jolteon then walks toward Luke to try to talk to him and understand why he felt this power from him. As he approached, Saren finds very suspicious, and making angry face, enters the front of Jolteon and says:
Saren: Hey, what is wanting to my brother?
Nero gives a friendly smile and takes your travel bag of a cupcake Sitrus Berry, and offers to Larvitar of malandra form:
NERO: Relaxes little, I will not hurt at all. And to prove it, I'll give you this delicious cupcake. You should enjoy and get something to drink not to choke.
Saren was really hungry for giving his lunch to Ashley, then he looked up and down the Jolteon he wore a gold earring in each ear and scarf with Glaceon format in the right front leg, and thought he was very proud to be evil. So not endure hunger, Larvitar accepts the offer and takes the cupcake, eating as he went his way.
Nero is relieved, though not surprised. After all, children are deceived by anything. But he was only disappointed because he did not think it would be so easy. The Jolteon continued on his way to Luke, who was reading from coast to him. When would already call it, you hear a familiar voice:
SAREN: "Nero Sakai", his name is very strange and in some interesting way ...
Nero turns, surprised to see that the Larvitar was rolling his bag-of-factly. What made the most suppressed Jolteon was he not have noticed that the Pokémon was there until he himself announced, and Nero speaks through upset:
NERO: Wait, what about the cupcake I gave you just now ?!
Saren replied innocently, while still rolls Nero things:
SAREN: It was the best I've had, so I want more. Speaking of which, you have a few Orbs in your purse. You must take care, long Pokémon profiteers in these parts.

Nero frowns, annoyed by the Larvitar, and responds with irony, doing the same laugh:
NERO: I'm looking at one now ...
Saren: Hahaha ...
Luke then heard his brother laugh and turns, noting the Jolteon. Startled to be a soldier, the Totodile hides his hand on the coast and asks:
LUKE: Saren, who is this?! Jolteon?
Meanwhile, not far from there, a Phanpy and Dedenne were trying to run away from something when suddenly find themselves in a wasteland without place or one to run. The Dedenne screams for help, without response, and a Pokémon appears from the shadows saying:
???: There's nowhere to run. They can yell at ease that only makes things more fun!!!
* SLAP *
The two Pokémon shouted very loud at first, but his cry was cruelly stifled by the mysterious being who transformed the bodies of the two in singles and cold stones, with only the moon to witness such evil.



A story by joining Pokémon elements and Earthbound (Mother), is set centuries after humans become an extinct race even if his knowledge did not die with them, but now only the Pokémon living on the planet and are living a very crisis would.
