* In a vortex of complete chaos and nothingness, a single {{pkmn|Egg}} comes into being, which then hatches into {{p|Arceus}}, the first being in existence. Arceus then creates {{p|Dialga|time}}, {{p|Palkia|space}}, and {{p|Giratina|anti-matter}}. Giratina, as punishment for its destructive nature, is sent by Arceus to live in the [[Distortion World]]. Dialga and Palkia then succeed in creating the universe and [[Pokémon world]] and retreat into their own [[dimension]]s afterwards, with a point of access being at the ancient [[Spear Pillar]] in Sinnoh.

* Arceus then creates {{p|Uxie}}, {{p|Mesprit}}, and {{p|Azelf}}, giving knowledge, emotion, and willpower to all living things that come into existence in the Pokémon world. The three dive into caves at the bottom of [[Lake Verity]], [[Lake Valor]], and [[Lake Acuity]] in Sinnoh, giving them the name "[[lake guardians]]".

* [[Primal Reversion|Primal]] {{p|Kyogre}} and Primal {{p|Groudon}} are formed by the primal energy in the [[Hoenn]] [[region]] and then proceed to fill the sea and create land, respectively. A chance meeting turns the two into rivals, and a conflict for dominance over the Pokémon world begins. This battle continues until {{p|Rayquaza}} quells it, causing Kyogre and Groudon to retreat to special caverns, where they rest in for years. The [[Red Orb|Red]] and [[Blue Orb]]s are created to prevent the reawakening of Kyogre and Groudon, and are left at [[Mt. Pyre]] for safekeeping. At this time, {{p|Mew}} may have been plentiful and lived in large numbers. Rayquaza flies around the ozone layer, occasionally coming to rest at [[Sky Pillar]].

* Landmasses such as [[Mount Coronet]] are created, and {{p|Regigigas}} moves the continents, forming the regions, and creates the three giants, {{p|Regirock}}, {{p|Regice}}, and {{p|Registeel}}, out of clay, ice, and magma, respectively. Though unconfirmed, Regigigas may have created {{p|Regieleki}} and {{p|Regidrago}} at this time as well.

* The [[Sinnoh]] region is created around Mount Coronet. During this violent procedure, [[Stark Mountain]] is created due to shifts in the crust of the world, and {{p|Heatran}} is formed in a pool of lava. Arceus creates the [[Adamant Orb|Adamant]], [[Lustrous Orb|Lustrous]], and [[Griseous Orb]]s before falling into a deep slumber.

** {{p|Terapagos}} is said to have inhabited [[Paldea]] in a bygone era. It was thought that this species went extinct, having been caught up in seismic shifts, however, at least [[Terapagos (game)|one]] managed to survive it by changing the [[Terastal energy|energy]] in its body and turning into a crystal, laying dormant in the [[Area Zero]] Underdepths.

* The Kalos war occurred, which caused the death of an [[AZ#Eternal Flower Floette|Eternal Flower Floette]] that belonged to the Kalos's king, [[AZ]]. In grief, the king built a machine that through [[Infinity Energy]], brought Floette back to life, as well as granting both the king and the Pokémon eternal life. Unable to overcome his despair however, AZ turns his machine into the [[ultimate weapon]] and used it to end the war, which left Floette disgusted by his actions, deciding to leave him. After that, the former king started to wander aimlessly around the world.
