//------------------------------// // Ash vs the Universe // Story: My Little Pokémon: Grander World // by Amarvax //------------------------------// Space Beyond Space. The Celestial Land. The Astral Court. Ash and Jirachi were currently being put under trial by the Astral Court due to the merging of both worlds. The true punishment of this trial was everything being reset. Thus, all that hard work trying to find Jirachi, all the struggles they've been through and the wonderful memories they've made would soon cease to exist with both worlds going their separate ways. Defending them was Lightwing and the angel who wished to see them charged was the strict Strident Heart. The whole universe was watching this trial go down which wouldn't be decided by knowing if Ash and Jirachi did it. This was already known by everyone else. It was a matter of how Ash and Jirachi were going to convince the court about the positives of such a decision. "Now that you know what the punishment of this is, I hope you're rethinking things." Strident Heart smirked. "It will be difficult for us to put everything back to how it was. Resetting everything is not an easy task and it will take a while for us to do so but rest assured, it can be done. We can find the resources." "No way I'm rethinking anything!" Ash wasn't rethinking at all. When it comes to the happiness of his friends and family, his mind will be made up from the get-go. Strident would then narrow her eyes at Ash. "And you have quite the bravado to speak to an angel like this, mortal." Strident also didn't take kindly to Ash's tone. He showed no fear in the face of so many divine and cosmic entities, only thinking about his friends. "Calm down, Ash." Lightwing tried calming Ash down. Strident Heart was already pushing his buttons by threatening to reset what he's come to love. "Strident can be like that but it's best not to engage. I will speak now." "Lightwing. You have always been the one to see both sides. And in this instance, you see the positives to such a union." "Right. We all saw it for ourselves. The Rift would have left and reset everything but a challenge was clearly issued by them. It was a race to see which side would win and Ash's side managed to succeed, finding Jirachi. It was only done to preserve the memories that have been made on Earth. I've always believed that everyone should be happy and have dreams with little limitations. The existence of Pokemon widens their dreams and happiness." Lightwing would create her own astral projection, but this time with a positive showing. Lightwing would refer to how the existence of Pokemon has really brought about a positive change. In the beginning, everyone was lost and confused, unsure as to what these Strange and Wonderful creatures were. They were even terrified. However, with the help of a few humans, they managed to form a bond with these Magical Creatures. "There are those who came close to sinking into darkness but the Pokemon appeared and pulled them back up. They are also responsible for helping save their lives. The Pokemon, even though they do not originate from our history, have brought happiness. We angels live to bring happiness to others and for the longest, the mortals have found various ways to be happy. And now that the Pokemon have entered their lives, while we may not influence the mortals, the Pokemon can do what we can." "Tch. Really?" Strident Heart scoffed. "Honestly, Lightwing. I expected better from you. Happiness doesn't compare to how this disrupts the natural order. The Pokemon are now a part of a new history and if this were to stay permanent, other existences will follow this, throwing everything in dissarray. There are other higher beings in those existences who are most likely aware of all of this." "I know, I know. The Tyranitar changed the landscape just by moving and the Earth altered just to fit the habitats of these Pokemon. But ultimately, the Earth was still kept intact. I'd like to also add the fact many lives would have been lost had it not been for the Pokemon. There are some scenarios that seemed impossible." "And that was because of a Pokemon." Strident Heart added. "Yveltal destroyed all life on Earth while Xerneas revived it. If Xerneas did not revive them all, this would have caused complications for the Ambrosial Plane." "The existence of Pokemon is a decisive one. They can bring benefits while also being responsible for catastrophic outcomes. But for now, let us focus on the one species of Pokemon and Ash Ketchum." Luceras requested as she was only fixating on Jirachi and Ash. "I have gathered thoughts and honest opinions from the beings across the cosmos," said Cruxluck, who would use everyone's honest words, listening to all of them with his amazing power. Ash Ketchum. Jirachi. The way this trial can end is by the decision of everyone else. Every species in the universe will either support you or be against you. Whichever side manages to have the superior numbers by the end of this trial will finish it." Luceras explained to them both how this was going to end. "There are other options but that would put your entire well-being in danger. It was all a matter of opinion. After all, while everyone on Earth would much prefer things to be the way that they were, the other species out there are either undecided or they already have some opinions. "The result is...30% of those living on Earth support Ash Ketchum. So far, 70% from across the cosmos are against him." Cruxluck finished gathering the percentage. "Those against him have stated that their homes have been greatly affected, either by Jirachi's Power or the existence of Pokemon." "Naturally." Strident Heart shrugged. "You didn't think that the Earth was the only place to receive the Pokemon? The Rift made sure that everywhere was filled with Pokemon." "Don't worry, Ash. I'll do my best to sway everyone to your side." Lightwing reassured. "It will be difficult, considering that they are struggling with the Pokemon as well. They don't have someone like you to help them." "So some Pokemon showed up on other planets, huh?" "Not many. Very limited Pokemon species were scattered across the cosmos by the Rift. And already, they have caused nothing but trouble. Not only are aliens very much real, but I can guarantee you they would rather see the disappearance of the Pokemon." Strident Heart continued. "Your honour. We could go on and on about how this massive expansion has affected all of existence. But I will tackle something else in the meantime. And there is one other thing I can't ignore. Your honour. I would like to bring up Ash Ketchum's interaction with the afterlife. Specifically, his interaction with Meteor Mountain. "Meteor Mountain? What about it?" Ash asked. "This is one of your many crimes. Even before the worlds merged. You arrived at Pegalysium's Meteor Mountain, which held meteors that possessed the spirits of those who have passed. To our surprise, you had the power to make them communicate with the living. All thanks to the Aura that is within you." "I did. But I did it for those who wanted to see their loved ones again." Ash explained, not regretting that action at all. With everyone hearing this, those who took the meteors back home were on Ash's side. A majority of everyone on Earth was on Ash's side since they wanted to keep these memories. But those on other planets and galaxies were simply observing "A foolish response. You have completely disrupted everything about the passing of someone." Strident Heart changed her projection, showing the many spirits within the meteors that have been brought over. From Applejack's parents to the Changelings that Chrysalis lost "It's bad enough that you put two worlds together, but you have also complicated everything for us. We angels at the Ambrosial Plane went into immediate panic the second we sensed the disruption of spirits." "I remember that day. It was rather hilarious" Lightwing snickered, having a different reaction. "But I wouldn't say it's all bad, Strident. The joy that it brought others was wonderful. Many who had multiple loose ends had the opportunity to mend them. It also helped those whose souls could not rest even after entering the Ambrosial Plane. There is also the Pokemon Tapu Fini that we can't ignore." "That's exactly the problem. The Pokemon hold too much power. All it takes is for someone to obtain a Jirachi and make the utmost worst wish possible. And very little could stop that from happening. And this might be a good time to bring up those who have used such power. Would you like me to start with Empress Twilight Sparkle or should I continue off with Rosa Maledicta?" "I know how powerful the Pokemon are." Ash closed his eyes, not needing to hear how strong and dangerous the Pokemon can be. He's seen it and experienced it for himself. "But that doesn't take away anything." "Your words don't matter in this, Ash Ketchum. There is no way out of this one. You may have the power to sway others with your hopeful speechless but to an angel...I think not. Especially me." Strident Heart approached Ash, getting close to him and letting him know how difficult she was going to be. "I have an objection!" Lightwing exclaimed, raising her hoof. "If it helps, why don't we bring someone here to question? We haven't reached that point yet and there are plenty of candidates." "I was getting to that, Lightwing...I already have a few individuals in mind. The recklessness of Ash Ketchum will be shown and I know who to summon to help my case. But before that... the prosecution would like to call Princess Celestia and Princess Luna to the trial." Suddenly, by the power of Starowl, Princess Celestia and Luna have been summoned. The Royal Sisters gasped as they never expected them to be brought along. Their bodies materialized into the seats as they were ripped from Canterlot. They were watching the trial and now they were apart of it. Everyone back at Equestria was in shock to see their Princesses being present there. "Ash! We're here too?!" Celestia gazed at her surroundings. "W-What?! Why us?!" "How come you're bringing them here?!" Ash exclaimed as he didn't want the rest of his friends to be involved. He was hoping to tackle this alone. "Silence mortal. Because of you and Jirachi, the workload for the Royal Sisters will have to change. If the possibility of the new world being unable to be reset comes up, there is always an alternative." Strident Heart brought up the fact that this new world being reset might not happen. That chance was there, without a doubt. "And as a bonus, Celestia and Luna are just as guilty." "We are?!" Luna gasped. She scrunched her face as she never thought she'd be in a court case. "It was you two who assisted Ash Ketchum in reaching Jirachi. Celestia. You approved of the creation of the Golden Stairway. A cosmic stairway that would lead you all to the Jirachi. Luna supported the idea and so did many others. Therefore, you are just as guilty as Ash Ketchum." "We did it because it made us happy. We couldn't let these memories go." Celestia explained. "Being happy does not excuse the disruption to existence. Any interference with the grander universe at large will be authorized. And if we cannot reset it, then we will have to double the work for you. You two are the ones who raise the Sun and the Moon, however, there is one massive drawback to all of this. The Sun and the Moon have also grown, as you may know." "And that hasn't changed anything for us," said Luna. "So far, it hasn't. But you have only been moving the Sun and the Moon around your nation. There now exists two Suns and Moons." "Two of them?! That can't be! We've only seen one!" Celestia shook her head. There couldn't be two Suns and two Moons. They figured that the Sun and Moons would grow in size after the worlds merged. And they did grow in size but there was another result. "Their size increase was not the only thing that happened. The Sun and the Moon duplicated themselves to keep some level of balance in this new existence." The Astral Projection would show the Sun and the Moon in their usual positions. Nothing out of the ordinary here. That is until Strident Heart showed them all what was behind them both. An extra Sun and Moon. No one noticed them before until Strident Heart pointed it out. "And they are both near to each other?! How have the two suns not combusted around each other?" Luna uttered. By now, the two Suns would have set off and caused a mighty Supernova. "A Supernova hasn't happened before it hasn't been triggered yet. Other stars in different galaxies have found themselves in a similar situation. It hasn't been too long since the two worlds have become one so the possibility of them going off is a bit farther away but still possible. But something far worse than Supernova could happen Your entire planet could melt with two Suns around. Earth is unfit to handle two Suns, especially since they've grown." "But can't you stop it? If you're higher beings, don't you have the power to prevent something like this from happening?" asked Celestia. "I regret to inform you but the movement of the Sun and Moon has always been your responsibility." Strident shook her head. "We are not responsible for your Suns and Moons. There are other planets that have their own Suns and Moons to deal with it. For the two of you, to prevent the Earth from perishing, you will have to move two Suns and Moons." "W-We would have to control them both somehow." That sounded absurd to Celestia and Luna as their jaws collectively dropped. They have never raised and lowered Two Suns and Two Moons before. But according to Strident Heart, if everything cannot be reset, Celestia and Luna will have to work overtime. "Do we even have the magic for that...?" Celestia pondered. Could she even move two Suns and Moons? Not even the Ruler of Equestria was exempt from this trial. "Doesn't sound fun, does it? It's not just two Suns and Moons you have to worry about." "Gathering new opinions." Cruxluck would start gathering the opinions of everyone, ready to tally the percentage. Earth was so far the only thing Ash could bank on. All the other planets thought otherwise. Since they've interacted with Pokemon beyond Earth, their perspective on these Magical Creatures is much different. "Hold on." Lightwing would take a shot at this. "I will defend Princess Celestia and Princess Luna as well. Much like Ash, they have already prevented complete world destruction, but they have more than just that. There's one important detail we're missing in all of this. The Lich Queen Rosa Maledicta was planning to destroy not just all life on Earth, but the entire universe. If she had succeeded, other planets out there would have perished." Cruxluck paused, letting Lightwing speak before gathering the opinions. Those watching the trial from other planets would wait to see what else Lightwing had to say. Neither of them knew that the Lich Queen planned to target their homes as well. To show evidence, Lightwing changed her Astral Projection, showing the words of the Lich Queen. There, it showed Rosa Maledicta stating that she wouldn't stop at Earth. She would go beyond and target the planets, snuffing the life out of them. And she planned to go beyond that. After this universe's life was expunged, other universes would suffer the same. "I also have to mention that Yveltal would have reached the Ambrosial Plane as well if Rosa Maledicta was not stopped. Because of Ash and his friends, such disasters have been prevented. The Pokemon that are causing trouble across the cosmos can be dealt with but there hasn't been any proper guidance for those planets, unlike Earth. If they had someone like Ash to guide them, all troubles would dwindle." "New reactions are being gathered..." Cruxluck started gathering new opinions after Lightwing's reply. She managed to sway the other lifeforms. "The percentages have changed. Those supporting Ash. 50%. Those against. 50%. There is an equalizer now." "Awesome, Lightwing! You tied it up!" Ash cheered. "Pikachu!" "Hehe." Lightwing grinned. "Life is precious and many others feel the same way. Anyone would be grateful for being saved from an incoming catastrophe." "Not bad, Lightwing." Strident Heart had to give her praise. "I'm not done yet." Lightwing winked. "There's one more character we need to speak about. The terrifying Cosmos." Her projection changed once more, showing Cosmos. Those watching from other planets and locations across the cosmos have collective reactions. Even those in the court pulled back. Many knew who Cosmos was. "Cosmos once caused terror and chaos across worlds with seemingly no end in sight. I know you are all terrified of her, but it will do your heart well to know that Cosmos has been stopped by Ash's group once more. Sealed away a second time." Opinions were changing once more. Defeating Cosmos and stopping her was truly a reassuring thing to hear. Many of these beings across the cosmos have been terrorized by her in different ways. Thanks to Lightwing, opinions about Ash were starting to change. It was because of the Pokemon that they managed to stop Cosmos since these Strange and Wonderful Creatures were powerful enough to stand to the Magic of Chaos. "Hmph." Strident Heart closed her eyes. "So much for caring about the state of the universe. Not as if you cared about it, Lightwing." "I've always cared about the state of existence, Strident Heart. I want to keep it as stable as you do. But I also want the best for everyone. As an Angel, it is our duty to bring happiness to others. The Pokemon can do the same. Is that so wrong? I say we should keep everything together and work on managing a stable universe. It can be done." "So, you guys can make everything stable?" Ash questioned. "If that's the case, why not do it if you have such power?" Celestia wondered the same thing. Couldn't they have fixed everything by themselves? Luceras certainly looked like she could do it. "We can. But the increase of two existences surpasses our own power. Every Multiverse that existed in each universe are now a part of it. We do have someone who could theoretically solve this if she were here. The one who created us would be at this trial, but she has been gone for a long time. She is like an author to us and I am filling in for her." "Nice argument...But you haven't considered everything in the long run." Strident Heart wasn't finished. She wasn't about to let Ash go unpunished. "We should probably touch on other topics now. Especially since some of your friends are harbouring cosmic power within them, which is forbidden to be held by mortals. The prosecution would like to summon Twilight Sparkle." Arriving at the trial was Twilight. Alas, she wasn't safe either. Twilight appeared on one of the many seats as the moment she heard her name back at Equestria, she screeched and that carried all the way over to the Astral Court. "Wait! Me?!" "Yet another individual who supported the Jirachi mission. Twilight Sparkle. You were the first pony to absorb Rift Magic, making it a vessel for you. You are currently the only pony who has done so." "W-Well yes. But that was just to help others. I haven't used it to interact with space or anything like that." Twilight gulped, trying to keep her composure. She had all these celestial eyes watching her, judging her and the others. "That does not matter. Mortals are forbidden to hold cosmic power without permission. And besides.... what you did is not unique. Anyone can empty out their magic and make a new vessel for themselves I'm honestly surprised it took this long for one of you to realize that. As punishment, your Rift Magic will be stripped away from you. You cannot be allowed to run around with such power." "But I need it to make new gateways! I can't give it up until then!" "The gateways do not matter since they should not exist in the first place. Everything must return to how it was. No matter what. On top of Rift Magic, there is also the existence of Aura. Aura makes you quite dangerous, Ash Ketchum. Especially thanks to the being residing within you. Your Aura is directly responsible for interacting with the deceased, throwing the Ambrosial Plane into disarray. On top of that, you have brought Delayed Aura Ataxia to the universe." "I object. Ash was doing his best to stop Delayed Aura Ataxia." Lightwing intercepted Strident Heart's comment. "And he has been succeeding. So far, he has managed to weaken the Ataxia and wishes to do the same for others." "Do you honestly think he can do so? Other planets have been hit with Aura. The energy has entered them, making some beings more adept with Aura than most. Delayed Aura Ataxia has transcended Earth and now affects the universe." "It went that far? I thought it was just limited to Earth..." Luna shuddered. Delayed Aura Ataxia returned once more and this time, it was on a larger scale. "All thanks to Jirachi putting everything together. Aura is a peculiar power. The fact that it can interact with those tht have passed shows that it can do much more at its fullest potential. Delayed Aura Ataxia can also be crushing to many. This power should not have been around for our existence in the first place. Therefore, much like how Twilight Sparkle's Rift Magic will be taken away, we may have to seal your Aura away." "Seal his Aura?! But you can't do that! That's Ash's entire-" Twilight was soon stopped by Strident Heart's gaze. The other beings were agreeing with such a decision. Sealing away Ash's Aura seemed like a benefit to them. "You are a greater danger than you think you are, Ash Ketchum. Not just to the world but to the universe. It would be much better if you never remembered us and we never remembered you." "Pika...!" Pikachu was getting riled up by Strident Heart before Halo calmed him down. "Look. You may not like how things have turned out and how big it's all gotten. So what?" Ash would speak his mind once more to Strident Heart. "A-Ash..." Lightwing stuttered but it was too late. Ash was going all in. "These memories belong to Pokemon and everyone else. Everyone. Resetting everything would just take it all away from them. Something that they want to keep close to them. It doesn't matter what power you have! You've got no right to take that away from them! Dreams that can come true! Wounds that are healing and others getting started on this new world that's all out there for them!" "Kh! Watch your mouth mortal...!" "No way you're taking away their memories when new and even happier ones can come later! Everyone's got their own tomorrow! Cosmic Being or not, I promised that I wouldn't let them lose these memories!" "You fool! Even with the authority we hold, you would rather choose to object them just for that?!" "I would! That's why I fight! My friends and I do this for tomorrow! For everyone's tomorrow! Sure, this isn't how things are originally meant to be, but I'd much rather work with it and make something new of it than just forget about it! I won't let you let you take that away from my friends or anyone who loves the world they live in today!" "Jirachi doesn't regret doing this either." As for Jirachi, he spoke his mind as well. He didn't regret granting this wish and neither did the various Jirachis out there. Ash and Strident would gaze at each other once with Strident Heart being rather irritated that Ash spoke up to her. "Hm. I have heard plenty so far. The preservation of existence and keeping the balance stable for a healthy tomorrow. Or the preservation of a new existence that will lead into a new tomorrow and a new history." Luceras said. "Cruxluck. What say you? You are the bridge between this all." "The new percentages have arrived." Cruxluck gathered everything so far. "There seems to be a flux, your honour. The percentages are changing constantly. I cannot keep up with them." "Changing constantly? That means none can make up their mind at all. While Earth already has an opinion, everywhere else is a mystery." "Tch. This might take a while." Strident Heart grizzled her teeth. "I don't know how but the fact that you've managed to prolong this trial is impressive, mortal. But no matter what, you can defeat an angel or beings above you. "Your honour," Lightwing replied. "If it helps, my client is bound to explore these other worlds eventually. His thirst for adventure is something that will not slow down. The Pokemon across the cosmos can be dealt with by experts." "Even then, there are some realms where the Pokemon have managed to find themselves which Ash Ketchum cannot reach. On top of that, he is not allowed to enter them." Strident Heart objected. "If we lose this, we either have to expend more of our magic or lose the memories we've made. The first one doesn't sound so bad..." Luna gulped. "I never imagined I would be in such a trial, sister." "Have faith, Luna. This isn't where it ends for us." Celestia saw hope in all of this. "If we are unable to conclude today. Tomorrow or the days after that can be dealt with." Luceras saw the possibility of this trial being extended. Cruxluck was still trying to gather all the percentages which were changing rapidly to come to an absolute conclusion. "That isn't something you want to happen." Strident Heart sneered. "Trials at the Astral Court can last for decades. But for someone who has managed to go on for this long, that shouldn't be a problem, right? Especially for alicorns." "Sorry, Ash. This is my first time defending such a case. This is harder than I thought." Lightwing apologized for this rather difficult since Strident Heart was not holding back at all, doing everything in her power to punish Ash. "It's fine, Lightwing. It's great that you wanted to defend me and everyone else. I just wanna keep these memories for everyone. They're too precious to let go." "If our Creator, the Writing Glory, was involved in this trial, she would speak her mind and the decision would be absolute. Some trials are even decided because of her. Alas, since I am filling in her role, this trial can go either way. Does either side have something new to share to this trial?" "Unlucky for you." Strident Heart added. "if she were here, this trial would have been over It might have even ended. She is the defacto ruler over all of us. There is no one else who has more authority than her." "On the contrary, there is another." At that moment, a familiar voice came through, filling the entire Celestial Land. Strident Heart gasped after hearing this voice while Ash had a smile on his face. Above, the most beautiful golden light appeared for everyone to see. On Earth and across the cosmos. The trial came to a halt just to see the one descending from the light. Appearing from the light was none other than the Creator Deity. Arceus. "Arceus!" Ash, Celestia, Luna and Twilight collectively said with the happiest looks on their faces. Arceus was awake once more. He woke up just for this one moment and it was quite the time to make an appearance. "Pika!" "The Creator Deity, Arceus?! You're here?!" Strident Heart backed up. All the other cosmic beings stayed silent in the presence of Arceus. A being higher than all of them combined has finally arrived. "Welcome, Arceus." "This trial raises some excellent points for both sides, but I am afraid I will have to put an end to it." Arceus declared, instantly being on Ash's side. "Impossible! You have no power here! Only the Great Writing Glory has the power over this trial." "I regret to inform you, little angel." Arceus would then get close to Strident Heart, looking into her with his welcoming yet intimidating eyes. The strict Angel shuddered. "Now that we share a new existence with a new history to pave, I am also your boss, alongside your own Creator, Writing Glory." "Oh yeah...That makes sense!" A prolonged gasp came from Twilight. "Arceus is the Creator of all Pokemon, so he would still have the highest authority out there." "That can't be!" Strident Heart shook her head. "But you should know that this isn't how things are supposed to be! You also knew of the Rift approaching in the beginning, did you not?" "I did. And much like you, I planned to let the Rift depart so that memories of the worlds ever crossing ever was wiped and to let time flow as it always would. But after seeing their drive to protect these precious memories, how could I let it happen? I was once a Jaded Deity. But because of Damos, Ash and others I have met, I have found a new appreciation for the life I created. So, under my word, this existence shall remain. I have already spoken with Writing Glory prior to my arrival. We have had our own debate." "Very well. Under the word of other Supreme Ruler, this trial has ended. The victor is Ash Ketchum." Luceras would close this trial. "While all the words were held weight, it is abundantly clear that the final word from the Creator is absolute. That is a law we've abided by from the beginning." "Tch. Lucky save." Strident Heart turned around, seeing this as mere luck because of Arceus' appearance. Celestia and Luna had collective sighs while Ash raised his fists into the air with joy. "I beg to differ, Strident." Lightwing wasn't sure about that. "Cruxluck never came to a conclusion. It could have gone either way. Everyone in existence have differing opinions. It is the clash of opinions that either divides them or unifies them." "You've won this trial, Lightwing. Even though you weren't the one to convince them and this was your first time tackling such a case." "We did, you guys!" Ash cheered before receiving a hug from Jirachi. "Thanks a bunch, Arceus!" "We won, Ash!" Jirachi bellowed while hugging Ash's face. "However Though I have made the final word, it is clear that something has to be done with this new universe. Celestia. Luna. The Dual Suns and Moons will be dealt with before they can result in a cataclysmic event. And as for everything else, I will have to speak with you, Luceras. Now that I am awake, I will take the time to shape this new existence alongside all of you."[/b] "Understood, Lord Arceus. I am not just a judge but also many other occupations." With this trial ending, Strident Heart would flutter off, not wanting to stick around Ash and the others any longer. This trial could have gone either way and resulted in rather harsh outcome, with the harshest being everything being reset, which thankfully, did not occur. "This isn't over, Ash Ketchum." Strident would speak to Ash one last time. "The opportunity of you being put under trial is still present. You are not invincible, and I'll prove it one day. Especially with Prisma living inside of you." That was the last thing Strident Heart said before leaving the courtroom. "One last thing, your honour." Lightwing had one final request before looking back at Ash and everyone else. "It has been a while since this has been issued, but I would like to be the Guardian Angel for them." Lightwing wished to be a Guardian Angel. Her time with Ash and his friends wasn't over as she didn't want to just focus herself around Ash It would be around Twilight, Celestia, Luna, Pikachu and even Jirachi. And of course, it was an excuse to interact with the Pokemon World some. Luceras nodded, understanding her request. That would have to be spoken to about later on. Starowl returned once more, this time, planning to take Ash and the others home now that the trial was over. Arceus would depart eventually, saying what he had to say. But he would be seeing these other higher beings once more. Now that he was the ruler over this existence alongside another named Writing Glory, he was bound to interact with them a lot more. Possibly even more than Dialga, Palkia and Giratina. Once more, the preservation of this new existence and the memories that came from it had been saved. And now, those beyond Earth were well aware of everything concerning the Pokemon. And by extension, Ash and his friends had more to see and explore. As the journey continues. Chapter 275 End.
