In the game: I stole Groudon at the start.

No wonder Bakura, with just one Pokémon, swept all his opponents to win the championship at last year's Lily of the Valley Tournament.

"Let's go take a look."

Bakura chuckled and walked first toward the spot where Nihilego had landed.

The campfire hurriedly followed, while the snow moths floated silently in mid-air, closely following the two.

"Anyone you like? I can tame one."

Bakura looked at the group of Nihilegos who had lost their ability to fight, carefully selected them, and took out a Poké Ball to capture two of them.

This is, after all, an ultimate beast. Although Bakura himself may not be able to use it, it would be excellent for winning people's hearts or for making trade.

Don't be fooled by the fact that Ultra Beasts seem worthless in Ultra Space; in the outside world, Ultra Beasts are absolutely unique!

Furthermore, according to the official classification in the previous life, Ultra Beasts themselves belong to the category of Legendary Pokémon!

Hmm, although Ultra Beasts are the most common legends in Ultra Space...

"Lord Bakura, there must be more than one type of Ultimate Beast, right?"

The campfire tilted its head slightly, scrutinizing a Nihilego Ito for a long time before asking Bakura a question.

"Of course, don't you like Nihilego? Then let's head to the next Ultimate Space."

Bakura nodded and said nonchalantly, "Everyone has different requirements for spirits."

It wasn't too surprising to Bakura that Kayori didn't like Nihilego. After all, there are many types of Ultra Beasts, and Bakura wasn't worried that Kayori wouldn't find an Ultra Beast she liked.

The Ultimate Space is very complex, but Bakura had been there many times before and knew his way around with ease, leading a campfire through each Ultimate Space.

Electric-type tree from Ultra Power Plant, Celestial Maiden from Ultra Canyon, Guzzlord from Ultra Tower, Pheromosa from Ultra Desert...

After exploring each Ultimate Space, the two finally arrived at their final destination: the Ultimate Metropolis!

The Ultimate Metropolis is different from the previous Ultimate Space; it is a purely dark world.

The entire world was almost completely dark, and the somber sky created an intense sense of oppression.

As far as the eye could see, there was only a desolate land, devoid of any life.

"Lord Bakura, what kind of Ultimate Beasts live here?"

Unsurprisingly, the desolate scenery here was breathtaking. Looking around by the campfire, he asked Bakura curiously.

She had seen far too many bizarre landscapes in the Ultimate Space, but this Ultimate Space seemed to be a little special.

The heavy sense of oppression in my heart was completely different from that in the previous Ultimate Space.

"This is the ultimate metropolis, which is also the most special ultimate space."

Bakura glanced around and walked toward the location he remembered.

"Poison Baby and its evolved form, Naganadel, live in the Ultra Metropolis. If you're interested, we can go look for them later."

Bakura chuckled softly at the campfire, but his heart was beating much faster than usual.

"An evolved Ultra Beast, huh? That sounds interesting. But Lord Bakura, what do you mean by 'special'?"

Campfire tapped his chin and thought for a moment. After exploring so many Ultimate Spaces, it seemed that none of the Ultra Beasts had an evolutionary chain.

However, Campfire didn't believe that this Poison Baby could be considered special by Bakura.

"What a clever girl."

Bakura glanced at the campfire, then turned his gaze to a few scattered points of light in the distance, his eyes gleaming.

Arrived!

"Because this place is where a god is sealed!"

Yes, because this ultimate space seals away Necrozma, whose light and power have been taken away!

Chapter 25 features an encounter with Necrozma (please support!)

(Note: There are three different versions of Necrozma's storyline. The Necrozma in the TV series, the special episodes, and the game's origin story are all different. This version is based on the game's storyline, and it also includes the grudges between Necrozma and the ancestors of Dalth.)

The following is the main text

------------

Necrozma, the strongest legend in the Alola region!

"Huh?" Upon hearing this, the campfire stared wide-eyed in astonishment. Could there actually be a sealed god in this space?

She instinctively couldn't believe it, but since the words came from Bakura, the campfire still trusted Bakura.

"In the ultimate space, is there still something that can defeat a god?"

Campfire frowned. God is an honorific title for those top legends, and Campfire had never witnessed the power of a god.

However, the legends, relics, and documents left over from history are enough to give us a glimpse into the whole picture.

How were the gods in this space sealed away? Were they defeated by other gods?

"Even gods are not truly invincible, so it's not surprising that they were sealed away."

Bakura chuckled upon hearing this. Top legends are also called gods, but where is there a truly invincible god?

Even Arceus, who is hailed as the creator god and the one who created the three gods of the Dionysus, was once seriously injured and on the verge of death.

And it was all because of a human's scheme!

In the movie, if Ash's protagonist aura hadn't come into play, Arceus wouldn't have gone into a deep sleep; it would have been killed by a trick!

Not only Arceus, but many other gods also experienced near-death experiences.

Necrozma's fate was remarkably similar to that of Arceus.

"Do you remember those four people in the lab just now?"

Bakura continued walking forward, and in the distance, the outline of a huge city came into view.

Upon hearing this, Campfire was taken aback, then nodded. Of course she remembered; those four people with sickly pale skin had left a deep impression on her.

"They came from this ultimate metropolis space."

"This space was once full of light and life, and a group of humans also lived here."

Bakura explained softly that the Ultimate Space wasn't just inhabited by Ultra Beasts; at least in this Ultimate Metropolis Space, humans once lived as well.

Moreover, the environment is different from the dark, desolate, and lifeless place it is today.

In the original story, the battle between Kanto and the Frontier Zone against the Great Lord Lila came from the Ultimate Space. However, when Lila appeared in the real world ten years ago, she was discovered and taken away by the Interpol.

Later, Lila was raised by the Alliance and became a member of the Alliance.

Campfire listened silently without interrupting; she was very interested in this ultimate metropolis and the sealed god.

"Ultimate Necrozma, that's the name of the legend. It bestowed light upon the Ultimate Metropolis and protected human life."

"But human ambition and desire led them, their hearts consumed by greed, to look toward the ultimate Necrozma."

"I don't know what methods they used, but they stole the power and light of Ultimate Necrozma."

Bakura's lips curled into a slight, mocking smile—that's just human nature.

Arceus and Necrozma are examples of this!

They deeply trusted humans and did their best to protect and help them, but the final result was terrifying.

Bakura didn't know exactly how the Ultimate Metropolis Man stole the light from Ultimate Necrozma, but it was nothing more than a conspiracy.

It can only be said that this is fate.

"and after?"

Campfire frowned slightly, but said nothing, because she didn't think anything was wrong.

It's not surprising that someone would be so audacious as to target a legend for profit.

To put it bluntly, even now, many ambitious people covet the power of legend.

Isn't the Red Flame Pine just pursuing the level of Gracilaria? It's perfectly normal.

Power is such a fascinating thing!

"Light is the source of Necrozma's power. Without light, Necrozma is constantly immersed in pain and goes berserk."

"At the same time, because Ultimate Necrozma lost its light, Ultimate Metropolis was also shrouded in darkness. The light is gone forever; this is the punishment for greed~"

Bakura's tone was tinged with emotion. Necrozma had lost its light, and the Ultimate Metropolis, because of Necrozma, was also devoid of light.

The world has lost its vitality and is covered by despair because of those greedy people!

"Necrozma has gone berserk, plunging the world into darkness. The people of Metropolis have no choice but to deal with Necrozma first."

"So they built the Ultimate Metropolis Tower to suppress and seal Necrozma, which remains to this day."

"Dals and his siblings have never been exposed to sunlight since they were young, which is why their physical appearance is completely different from ours."

Bakura continued to narrate slowly, some of which he learned from the game plot of his previous life, and some from Dals and the others.

"So that's why..." Campfire finally understood why the four of them looked so strange.

Having lived in a world without light since childhood, it's understandable that my skin is so eerily pale.

"So they appeared in Alora?"

Then the campfire looked up at Bakura, and it seemed that it was now possible to guess why Dals was in the Ether Paradise.

"Yes, they've come seeking cooperation. Dars and his group possess the technology for space riding, which can transport people to the ultimate space."

"And their goal is to rediscover the light, that is, to find a solution from Necrozma."

Bakura's lips curled into a sarcastic smile. The mistakes and sins committed by the ancestors are now borne by their descendants.

It's truly pathetic, and ironically, they were the ones who hurt Necrozma in the first place.

But now they have no choice but to seek a way to save Metropolis from Necrozma.
