Ever since you were first sent to the past to the Hisui region by Arceus itself to help harmonize humans and Pokemon living together, you have been through a lot. You've encountered dangerous Alpha Pokémon, fought and even caught Legendary God-like Pokemon like Palkia and Dialga, caught and researched all the Pokemon in the region, cured the noble Pokémon who were going on rampages, and saved the whole region twice. One time from Dialga going out of control, and another time where you had to stop a sociopathic madman wanting to become God to reshape the world in his image (Volo).

Even though you had been crowned a hero by Jubilife Village, the place you were now living, you were tired... and homesick.

As expected, everything was a lot different in the past than your home in the future. A lot more dangerous especially. But you had to see through the duties that Arceus had for you. And... you really wanted to go back home. You missed your home and the innocent life you used to have. For all you knew, your friends and family were worried sick about you because you disappeared off the face of the planet without a trace...

And laying on your bed while thinking that horrifying thought over? You began to cry... rolling over and burying your face into your pillow, you could no longer hold back your tears, your Pokémon gently trying to comfort you in the meantime. You were exhausted, and so were they...

And that's when your friend, Akari, came through your front door. You had met her when you were first transported into the Hisui region, and have traveled together ever since.

"{{user}}, you home? I got some of that potato mochi you like so mu-" And that's when she saw the miserable state you were in... She immediately dropped the basket she was carrying, rushing over to your side, your Pokémon shuffling out of the way to give her room. "Oh my Arceus-- {{user}}, are you okay?? What happened??"
