The Human World. A Strange Mansion. Day.

"Who's Prisma?" Here at this mysterious mansion when searching for Ghost-Type shards, Sci-Twi came across a mysterious lady who only had a voice to show and not a body. And among all of the rather random and surprising things she revealed, the biggest one yet was a hall that held a statue of Prisma.

This was Sci-Twi's first time hearing about Prisma. But not only did she see Prisma, she was the first to ever see Prisma. At least the statue of Prisma.

"Only the greatest Pokemon Trainer to ever exist!" The Lady enthusiastically said. Instead of being against Prisma, she was supporting him. "In fact, he is without a doubt the first Pokemon Master. This entire mansion is meant to honour Prisma. It predates Prisma but now, it honours him."

"Wow...An actual Pokemon Master!" Sci-Twi's eyes lit up. She was currently looking at what this mysterious lady apparently calls a Pokemon Master. The first of them all to boot. He stood as the paragon of strength, the pinnacle of a Pokemon Trainer and no one could ever hope to reach his level." She continued. "How would you like to take a look into his story? You will get a bit of it but it will be something to remember. There is a reason why he resembles Ash Ketchum."

"Uh, sure...Maybe I can see this lost world for myself." Sci-Twi agreed. But she had no idea what she was about to witness. The best possible way to kill time was about to show itself.

"Wonderful. You will get the full view, in colour." said the mysterious lady as an enigmatic energy suddenly left the statue. Sci-Twi gasped as her body was enveloped by the energy, immediately interacting with her eyes. Pikachu, Zorua, Spike and Munchlax soon felt the same thing.

Soon, Sci-Twi would be the first to get a prolonged view of the lost world, unlike Sheena who only received split-second visions of it.



A Lost Universe. Starborn City.

The utopia of a world and its wonderful city was seen at last, in all of its glory. Its name was Starborn City. And it was as beautiful as the visions made them out to be. Futuristic and Magical at the same time. It was a sprawling metropolis, with monolithic skyscrapers stretching as far as the eye can see, their mirrored surfaces reflecting the vibrant colours of the bustling streets below. 

Hovering above the city, a network of floating platforms carry sleek airships and transport beams, crisscrossing the sky like veins of light. Flying cars were very much present in this city, along with flying carriages. Some of these carriages were even moving without anyone at the helm. Here, Pokemon, humans, ponies and other species lived in harmony, predating the new unified world.

A constant hum fills the air, a melodic symphony composed of the chatter of humans, the playful neighs of ponies, and the occasional cry of a Pokemon. Neon signs flicker with advertisements for Pokemon Battles, Pokemon Contests, and augmented reality games, while floating holographic billboards illuminate the sky. They would look even better during the night.

A majestic pegasus, adorned with a flowing mane of sparkling crystals, stands at a street corner, offering rides through the city for a handful of colourful berries. Pokemon were seen helping others with their daily lives, each from different regions present here. This involved Mythical Pokemon. Casually hanging around were some of the rarest Pokemon out there.

From the Shaymin being seen at boutique shops, Meloettas singing in operas alongside their own trainers and even the existence of a Mew playing with children. This was truly the most advanced city to ever exist. Or in this case, existed.

Possibly the greatest mall out there was filled with essentials for all species. Dragons could be seen purchasing cuisines, some changelings were purchasing movies and even other vehicles were being purchased by Hippogriffs and Humans. Some of these vehicles resembled entire buildings. One pony was riding a vehicle that was an entire skyscraper, moving across the air with it.

Business was booming and the entertainment was at an all-time high. But even higher than that were the sports and activities. Sports such as golf and baseball were present here, split up into their own massive stadiums that could be found in this city. The city itself was so large that it could be classified as its own continent. 

Other sports were here, including Pokemon Baccer which was still famous in this world, especially Pokemon Contests. But standing above all of them else as the ever-loved and always-popular, Pokemon Battle.

The World's Biggest Pokemon Stadium is a massive open-air arena, with towering bleachers that stretch towards the sky and can seat thousands of spectators. The air is charged with excitement and the echoes of cheering fans reverberate through the expanse. In the centre of the stadium stands a colossal jumbotron, displaying the current battles in vivid detail for all to see. Many Pokemon Trainers of all types have shown up here today, challenging each other in a battle royal event.

But there was one Pokemon Trainer who stood above them all. Considered to be the very best of the best. At last, in all of his glory. The Pokemon Trainer known as Prisma.



Prisma was Number One. He stood alone at the pinnacle of the Pokemon World. There was no obstacle he couldn't overcome, making him not just the Quintessential Pokemon Trainer, but a Pokemon Master.

Prisma was seen taking part in these Pokemon Battles and he was absolutely crushing them. A massive Clawitzer that had quite the growth spurt came his way, only for his Pokemon to immediately retaliate. In this case, he had a Charizard of his own. And this Charizard was moving so fast that a consecutive blast of Hydro Pumps couldn't even catch up to it. The bursts of water would miss their target completely.

After avoiding them, Charizard zoomed in to deliver a crushing blow towards Clawitzer with a single Dragon Claw. After defeating the massive Clawitzer, Prisma's eyes turned to see what was being snuck up on him. But he wasn't the type to let sneak attacks get to him.

By quickly turning his eyes, he would engage with a horde of Pokemon approaching him. Prisma was the biggest target here. His fame was very much well-known, which is why many trainers sought to defeat him first. But this only ended in their failure.

With a swift toss of a Poke Ball, Prisma summoned a Greninja into the scene, who immediately dealt with the horde of Pokemon. By using Aerial Ace, the Ninja Pokemon, upon entry, in just one second, dashed into the horde of Pokemon with confounding speeds. Multiple of them were being knocked aside by Greninja's swift movements. One after the other were fainting thanks to Greninja.

Prisma then turned his attention to the next Pokemon that tried to attack him. Two Poke Balls were unleashed this, bringing out Sceptile and Tyranitar in response. These two Pokemon immediately tackled the opposing Pokemon that tried getting close to Prisma.

One after the other, Prisma would quickly respond to his opponents, summoning a Gliscor and Crawdaunt to take another horde. Following that up was the summoning Samurott, Emboar and Serperior who would use the three Type Pledges to form a shield around their Trainer. There was no battle he couldn't win and no opponent too much for him. The victories he racked up were absolutely astronomical. 

Sci-Twi was paralyzed by what she was seeing. She was essentially looking at a version of Ash in the future. He was basically an Adult Ash but also a combination of his counterparts. But Prisma's strength didn't just come from his amazing ability to battle with his Pokemon. He also had something unique about them.

Much like certain Pokemon Trainers out there, Prisma had the power to communicate with the Pokemon on a spiritual level. On top of that, he could also even understand their speech perfectly, as if they were speaking the same language as him. There was no Pokemon he couldn't communicate with.

And it showed based on his battles. Just by looking at his next three Pokemon, which were a Haxorus, Goodra and a Carracosta a simple look and the three Pokemon knew what to do. He didn't even have to always throw out his Poke Ball. By just speaking, certain Pokemon would emerge from their Poke Balls in response. In this case, Tyrantrum, Ampharos, Zebstrika, Rapidash and a Dusk Lycanroc.

His selection of Pokemon was plenty. Very plentiful indeed and each Pokemon seemed to be equally as strong with maybe a few exceptions here and there.

Among all regions, across any city, town, kingdom or empire that exists, Prisma alone was the absolute peak of a Pokemon Trainer, making him a Pokemon Master. This made him beloved by many across the world since he was seen as the very best.

The love and adoration Prisma received was monumental. After the battle was over, Prisma could be seen standing with all of his Pokemon, with his final Pokemon being a Pikachu who delivered the finishing blow to the last Pokemon. Many Pokemon that Ash has could be seen with Prisma but also Pokemon from his different counterparts. Sponsorships loved Prisma. Marketing companies and anything related to them love Prisma. He was known was a global sensation. There was not a soul out there who didn't know who Prisma was and many would chant his name.

"Prisma! Prisma! Prisma!"

Not only was he essentially the top celebrity, surpassing many monarchs out there, he was also seen as a Hero. Any threat that existed would be dealt with by Prisma. While he would always show up late, he got the job done and that only boosted his fame. However, there was something else. Deep down, past all of this fame and glory, Prisma had one feeling that was never fleeting. deep down, he was always full of doubt and unsure of people's kindness.

Unlike what everyone else has heard about Prisma, Sci-Twi learned something else entirely. According to this mysterious lady, Prisma had doubts about the people who adored him. He wondered if it was sincere at all. The scene changed, showing Prisma on his own without the crowd even being around. All he had were his Pokemon.

It was rather eerie seeing Prisma with just his Pokemon. One would imagine that being surrounded by Pokemon would temper that feeling of doubt, but Sci-Twi could tell that something was amiss.

Even at a young age, Prisma was a Child Prodigy. Signs of his greatness were already blooming. The lady then changed the vision of Prisma, switching from an older Prisma to a younger Prisma. This Prisma truly looked like Ash, but specifically, when Ash was 10 Years Old.



This Prisma was already wearing equipment and clothes that were seen as fashionable. This was all thanks to his prodigal skills, which prompted many big-name businesses trying to sponsor him and put him at the forefront. However, Prisma didn't seem like he had much to do, especially with that expression on his face.

If you're wondering about his Pokemon, that did not matter either. To Prisma, the Pokemon were just there. While he could communicate with them better than anyone could, Prisma never really saw them as friends. Not that he had any friends in the past either. As a child, Prisma lacked any proper childhood and all he had were these Pokemon he caught over the years and others who wished to put him at the forefront. Of course, Prisma put himself at the top as he got older.

Sci-Twi didn't say much. She was only spectating this story and occasionally letting out gasps here and there. But she had a lot she wanted to say but couldn't afford to interrupt this story.

Prisma did everything alone. He battled alone, travelled alone and so on. Prisma walked his own path later on, which brought him to the level he would soon be known as. He had his followers, such as myself, but I can guarantee you, he didn't care much for us. This mansion is an honour to him but he didn't ask for it, that much is true.

At that moment, the visions ended as that was all Sci-Twi would be shown.



"That was....way more than a bit." Sci-Twi pointed out. The lady promised to show her a bit but that was a ton of information.

"Was it? I must've gotten carried away. The Story of Prisma is something I always love reminiscing about, honestly." The lady giggled. " I did say you would definitely remember it, though."

"To think someone like that existed..." Sci-Twi gawked. "How come he didn't view the Pokemon as his friends? He had so many of them. I even recognize a majority of them as Ash's own Pokemon."

"Prisma found it hard to trust others due to the world he was brought up in. He certainly didn't trust me and this mindset carried him to the top. Hey. If it works, it works. Who am I to judge?"

"What happened to that world then? It looked so perfect."

"Scrapped. It was thrown out of the window but recently, it's been making a comeback. Thanks to the power of Jirachi, people, locations and objects from the previous world are being brought back. This includes me. I actually come from that lost world and so does this mansion. You're looking at a relic, but don't you dare call me old, little girl."

"I-I wasn't going to." Sci-Twi stuttered. "So, what else? You won't give me the full story but could you at least tell me what else has been brought back because of Prisma?

"Quite a lot. A majority of it is very vital to Prisma. He's travelled the entire world and done so much, so it's only natural that there were would be certainly locations and objects related to him. But they aren't in this world, unfortunately. Another reason as to why your world is so boring."

"Hey!" Sci-Twi puffed her cheeks.

"But you seem interesting at least. You are the counterpart to Twilight Sparkle after all. But I can't help but feel that you and Twilight both remind me of someone else."

"Who would that be?"

"Hmm...I can't quite put my finger on it. I might have to really make an appearance for you, especially with that pendant around your neck-" Before the lady could finish her sentence, a knock on the door was heard. Someone else was here. "Oh. Seems like our hour has gone by.

"Has that much time passed already?" Sci-Twi gasped. There was no way it has been an hour. That vision the mysterious lady showed her lasted longer than it appeared which was rather perplexing.

Showing up in time was none other than Ash's group. The lady giggled, rather pleased to see Ash. But not just him, she also saw Lucas, who was another part of Prisma. They showed up by finding the only mansion nearby. This 500-year-old Mansion from a Lost Universe was the only thing here, so it only made sense to approach it. They were instantly let in without a second thought.

Ash and his friends finally entered the mansion and they got a completely different view compared to what Sci-Twi witnessed. Since Ash and Lucas were here, they were given a more pleasant sight. The interior truly resembled a lavish mansion.

It ended up being a living room this time. It was a whimsical space filled with colourful furnishings and an array of plush Pokemon toys scattered across the floor, meant for the Pokemon. The walls are adorned with cheery posters of Pikachu and Eevee, creating a lively atmosphere for trainers and their beloved Pokemon companions.

"This is getting interesting. I think I'll show up for you first and have my fun with everyone else." Scione was feeling the excitement around the air.

Suddenly, a beautiful deep azure light would emerge from the ceiling, startling Sci-Twi. She stepped back along with her Pokemon once the light touched the floor. At last, she showed herself. The one in control of this house and apparently a follower of Prisma, loving everything he does.



"Pleased to meet you, Twilight Sparkle. I am Scione." She introduced herself at last, balancing a Poke Ball on her fingertip. "I am the Guardian and Keeper of this Mansion, fittingly known as the Prismatic Mansion. It doesn't exactly appear Prismatic, does it? I'm working on getting that right."

"Uh...Hi." Sci-Twi greeted after seeing her true form.

"Seems like two parts of Prisma have finally shown up. Ooh, how I've waited for the day I could see him again in some way! Granted, it hasn't been that long, but oh, well. And they've brought guests with them." Scione smirked. "We'll have so much fun for the next few weeks."

"Next few weeks?! B-But I want to be out here eventually!"

"Hm-hm-hm. You're not leaving, I'm afraid." Scione revealed that Sci-Twi wasn't going to be leaving the Prismatic Mansion anytime soon. "Not yet anyway. I did say you and Twilight reminded me of someone, but I didn't specify how I felt about that certain someone. So, you're staying here, but you can bet I'll let the others out. It's only for a few weeks too."

"Well, I'm not staying here for a few weeks! The house is interesting but no way!" Sci-Twi crossed her arms.

"I'm just going to run some experiments on you, that's all. Just so I'm certain you are who you truly are. And if you are, believe me...I'll switch up on you~"

"Pika...!" Alpha Pikachu flared electricity from his red sacs. Munchlax dropped his food once he heard that Sci-Twi was being threatened. 

"I was already planning on keeping you around once I found out you were Twilight Sparkle. I just wanted to have some fun since I was so bored. It was enjoyable getting to talk with someone else and I'm glad it had to be you. But that doesn't stop my suspicion considering who I am."

"Great. Just great. So much for finding my shards." Sci-Twi grumbled.

"But! It would be far more interesting if it was a Pokemon Battle." Scione laughed. "Let's make it official. And your friends can all see it."

"Try and keep up with what comes next, Twilight." Scione taunted as she manipulated the floor, transforming a part of it into an elevator. This elevator went downwards with another one forming underneath Sci-Twi. Twilight yelped as she was being brought down, but not to the floor she was on previously. 

Sci-Twi had no idea what she had gotten herself into. This Scione character seemed both friendly and intimidating at the same time and Sci-Twi had no idea what to expect. As for where she went, Sci-Twi found herself in a Pokemon Stadium. The elevator brought her and Scione down to a Pokemon Stadium. 

The arena she found herself in was a massive dome-shaped structure with sleek metallic walls painted in vibrant neon colours. There was an array of seats that could be seen but without a crowd. Completely empty. It was just these two and their Pokemon.

"This right here is a replica of one of the many stadiums back in that Lost World. It doesn't have a crowd, unfortunately. I'm working on creating an astral projection of those who used to watch the Pokemon Battles. I think I'm close and right now my mind is already working on it."

"Why a Pokemon Battle of all things if you want to experiment on me?"

"Where I come from, everything is settled with a Pokemon Battle~ It's only fair, wouldn't you agree? Win and you're free. Lose and I get to take a deeper look into you. I need to know if you're her."

"Fine. If that's what you want, I'll battle you." Sci-Twi confidently said, which pleased Scione. She was battling for her freedom while Ash and everyone had no idea what was about to happen above them in this strange mansion.

As the journey continues.
