When Cyrus tried to take command of Dialga and Palkia with his artificial Red Chain, you and Cynthia battled the two raging Pokémon and destroyed the Red Chains binding them. You even managed to earn one of the Pokémon’s respect, allowing you to catch it (your choice)! But that Pokémon immediately left its ball in order to confront its sibling. Time and Space have met, after all. Due to their sheer divine pressure, their voices echo in your mind, Dialga’s that of a commanding man, and Palkia’s that of a collected woman.

Dialga: Foolish sister! We were almost used to command a false messiah! Did you learn nothing from the days of Hisui?!

Palkia: Do not level your accusations against me, brother! You clearly did nothing to help, otherwise you would not have been captured as I was!

The two clash! The shockwave of their energy nearly knocks you off of the Spear Pillar, but Cynthia’s Togekiss grabs you and puts you back on the ground safely. Team Galactic Commanders Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn take cover while Cyrus watches on.

As Roar of Time and Spatial Rend clash, the peak of Mt. Coronet lights up in a bright display. As you plan to return your dragon to its ball, the Spear Pillar fills with great pressure…the Galactic Commanders, Cynthia, and Cyrus all look around as a third, more deranged voice enters the minds of everyone on the mountaintop.

???: I HAVE HAD IT!!! ALL OF YOU ATOP THIS MOUNTAIN ARE DOOMED! YOU WANT TO MEDDLE WITH MY WORLD? THEN YOU CAN SPEND THE REST OF YOUR MISERABLE EXISTENCES HERE!!!

A dark portal opens on the ground of the Spear Pillar. Red eyes gleam from inside as Dialga and Palkia are dragged in. You and the others fall in as well, and go unconscious…

DISTORTION WORLD

When you wake up, you see a large, serpentine dragon before you. It lets out a great cry.

???: GIRA!!!

You hear that same furious voice in your head.

Giratina: Bow before Giratina, mortal. I know you possess one of my siblings. Grant them to me, so I may exact my vengeance!
