A while later, the Expedition Society takes a trip to [[Fire Island Volcano|Fire Island]]. They are confronted by Entei, who they fight but get defeated by. Their [[Harmony Scarf|Harmony Scarves]] then activate, making them [[Evolution|evolve]] and have the power to defeat Entei. The evolution is only temporary, and they revert back to normal afterwards. Later on, Ampharos says they've found out Legendary Pokemon are being issued warnings, and that whoever is behind the turning-to-stone incidents is targeting them. Ampharos reveals they've been monitoring these turning-to-stone incidents for a while, and pledges that the Expedition Society will work hard to solve them. A few days later, a warning is dropped all over the plaza in Lively Town, stating that Entei is their next target to be turned to stone. They head to [[Showdown Mountain]] to try and stop the culprit. When they reach the summit, they notice {{mdc|Krookodile|smd}} has been following them, hiding. Krookodile proceeds to run away, and drops an ancient tablet behind. They continue on, and they find Entei already turned to stone with no one else around. The Expedition Society now suspects Krookodile of being involved in the incidents, and Ampharos gives Archen and Buizel the task of locating him. They return, having found a half-written warning letter at Krookodile's house. This makes them believe he really is the one turning Pokemon to stone. Mawile finishes deciphering the ancient tablet and says that they may find information at the [[Prehistoric Ruins]]. The next day, they hear that Krookodile is heading for Serene Village, and they decide to split up. The hero, partner, and Archen head after Krookodile, while the others head to the [[Prehistoric Ruins]]. When they arrive in the village, {{mdc|Nuzleaf|smd}} comes running, exclaiming that a "real ornery-lookin' Pokemon" broke through the gate to [[Revelation Mountain]] and is heading for the summit.

They follow Nuzleaf up the mountain. They reach the summit, and find no sign of Krookodile, but instead they see a spring surrounded by a mystic barrier. There's an ancient stone tablet which the partner is somehow able to read. It says "Should you hope to overcome this crisis, summon a person. A person will have the power to break the barrier over the spring. You must summon a person from the world of humans." They then get a call from Dedenne, saying that a special water called Luminous Water can bring Pokemon back from being turned to stone, and that it's there at Revelation Mountain. Krookodile then shows up, along with {{p|Raikou}} and {{p|Suicune}}, who intend to avenge Entei. Krookodile ignores them and continues to advance towards the group. Nuzleaf tells the hero they need to get the barrier broken now, before it's too late. After breaking the barrier, Nuzleaf is revealed to be the true villain behind turning Pokemon to stone. He proceeds to turn everyone else into stone with his dark power. Then {{mdc|Yveltal|smd}} issues a warning to all Pokemon in the world that they will be turned to stone. The hero and partner find themselves in the [[Voidlands]], the world Pokemon are sent to after being turned to stone. As they make their way through the Voidlands, they learn that [[Dark Matter]] is behind Pokemon turning to stone, and absorbing their energy and the energy of the [[Tree of Life]] to become more powerful, so that it can eventually destroy the world. They escape from the Voidlands, but Raikou, Entei, Suicune, and Mawile sacrifice themselves in the process. After returning to the real world, they find out that many Pokemon have been turned to stone at that point. They go to the Expedition Society headquarters, where they find {{mdc|Espurr|smd}}.

She says that she witnessed Nuzleaf turn them to stone, and has been helping Ampharos ever since. They find a {{mdc|Beheeyem|smd}} sneaking around, and they proceed to beat it up in revenge for turning everyone to stone. The Beheeyem begs for mercy and says that it was being controlled by Dark Matter, and it had no control over its actions. [[Dark Matter]] can control Pokemon with even a little amount of darkness in their hearts. This explains Nuzleaf's actions. The Beheeyem was told that the Tree of Life is in the Prehistoric Ruins, and they head there looking for it. However, when they reach the bottom of the ruins, they find out it was a trap. Nuzleaf had given the Beheeyem false information, knowing it had broken free from Dark Matter's control. Nuzleaf tells them the whole story: when the hero had first arrived in the Pokemon world, they had still had their memory. After taking a psychic attack from Beheeyem, the hero developed amnesia, and Nuzleaf plotted to use that to his advantage. He had the Beheeyem attack the hero, knowing they would run for help, and he showed up on the scene. He pretended to be kind and caring towards the player, while really plotting to use them to break the barrier over the spring and drain the Luminous Water so it would be impossible to bring Pokemon back from stone. Right when Nuzleaf is about to turn them to stone, {{p|Jirachi}} and Ampharos show up, along with {{p|Celebi}}. Celebi teleports them to Primeval Forest, close to the Tree of Life. They explain about how Dark Matter is made up of the negative feelings of all Pokemon, and how the Harmony Scarves were made from the Tree of Life to battle it. They reach the Tree of Life, nearly dead already, when they are attacked by Nuzleaf, Yveltal, and the Beheeyem, who have lost all sense of self due to Dark Matter's power growing very strong. They evolve from the power of the Harmony Scarves again. After defeating them, they get teleported to the top of the Tree of Life by Dark Matter. Dark Matter then starts lifting the Tree of Life out of the planet's atmosphere, and towards the sun. They desperately jump up to reach the Tree of Life, and get onto it. The Harmony Scarves help them to breathe so high up.

He proceeds to turn Krookodile into stone with his dark power. Archen tells the hero to hurry up and get the Luminous Water, but Yveltal appears, stopping them from doing so. Nuzleaf and Yveltal combine forces to turn them all into stone. Then {{mdc|Yveltal|smd}} issues a warning to all Pokemon in the world that they will be turned to stone. The hero and partner find themselves in the [[Voidlands]], the world Pokemon are sent to after being turned to stone. As they make their way through the Voidlands, they learn that [[Dark Matter]] is behind Pokemon turning to stone, and absorbing their energy and the energy of the [[Tree of Life]] to become more powerful, so that it can eventually destroy the world. They eventually escape from the Voidlands, but Raikou, Entei, Suicune, and Mawile sacrifice themselves in the process. 
 
After returning to the real world, they find out that many Pokemon have been turned to stone at that point. They go to the Expedition Society headquarters, where they find {{mdc|Espurr|smd}}.
 
She says that she witnessed Nuzleaf turn them to stone, and has been helping Ampharos ever since. They find a {{mdc|Beheeyem|smd}} sneaking around. After defeating it in a boss battle, the partner shows up, and they proceed to beat him up in revenge for turning everyone to stone. The Beheeyem begs for mercy and says that he was being controlled by Dark Matter, and that he had no control over his actions. Espurr says that [[Dark Matter]] can control Pokemon with even a little amount of darkness in their hearts, and the Pokemon that it controls gain the power to turn other Pokemon to stone. This explains Nuzleaf's actions. The Beheeyem was told that the Tree of Life is in the Prehistoric Ruins, and they head there looking for it. However, when they reach the bottom of the ruins, they find out it was a trap. Nuzleaf had given the Beheeyem false information, knowing it had broken free from Dark Matter's control. Nuzleaf tells them the whole story: when the hero had first arrived in the Pokemon world, they had still had their memory. After taking a psychic attack from Beheeyem, the hero developed amnesia, and Nuzleaf plotted to use that to his advantage. He had the Beheeyem attack the hero, knowing they would run for help, and he showed up on the scene. He pretended to be kind and caring towards the player, while really plotting to use them to break the barrier over the spring and drain the Luminous Water so it would be impossible to bring Pokemon back from stone. Right when Nuzleaf is about to turn them to stone, [[Jirachi (Pokémon)|Jirachi]] and Ampharos show up, along with [[Celebi (Pokémon)|Celebi]]. Celebi teleports them to Primeval Forest, close to the Tree of Life. They explain about how Dark Matter is made up of the negative feelings of all Pokemon, and how the Harmony Scarves were made from the Tree of Life to battle it. They reach the Tree of Life, nearly dead already, when they are attacked by Nuzleaf, Yveltal, and the Beheeyem, who have lost all sense of self due to Dark Matter's power growing very strong. The hero and partner evolve from the power of the Harmony Scarves again. After defeating them, Nuzleaf and the others seem to regain their senses, when they suddenly get teleported to the top of the Tree of Life by Dark Matter. Dark Matter then starts lifting the Tree of Life out of the planet's atmosphere, and towards the sun. They desperately jump up to reach the Tree of Life, and get onto it. The Harmony Scarves help them to breathe so high up.
 
They begin to climb up the Tree of Life, and towards Dark Matter. They eventually find Nuzleaf and the others being imprisoned and tortured by Dark Matter's power, and they free them. They escape, while the hero and partner continue to the top to fight Dark Matter. They attempt to fight Dark Matter, but it regenerates itself. At this point, the Tree of Life runs out of power, and they lose their evolutions. Dark Matter then turns most of the remaining Pokemon left to stone. Nuzleaf, the Beheeyem, and Yveltal then show up and help out by attacking Dark Matter. They are inevitably turned to stone too. The hero and partner are about to give up, when the spirits of every Pokemon in the world begin to encourage them and give them strength. The final fight against Dark Matter then begins. When they are about to destroy Dark Matter, it asks them if they really want to do it, saying that its pieces will scatter across the world and it will come back one day, stronger than ever. The partner then reasons with Dark Matter that it's a part of everyone, and says they accept it. Dark Matter is then smashed, and the destruction of the world is stopped, and everyone turned back to normal. They return to Serene Village, and everyone is there except Nuzleaf, who couldn't bear to face them after everything he had done. The hero believes they are going to disappear and return to the human world now that the world has been saved. The next day, they meet up with the partner on the hill. The partner says that [[Xerneas (Super Mystery Dungeon)|Xerneas]] made them remember everything, and that they were actually Mew in their previous life. The partner says they're the one that has to disappear, not the hero. They say goodbye, and the hero is left there crying after they disappear.
 
Later, presumably several months later, the hero is standing outside, pondering everything that happened. They still haven't gotten over the partner disappearing. Ampharos comes up to them, and asks them whether they are thinking about their partner. Ampharos says that [[Xatu (Pokémon)|Xatu]] may know a way to bring them back, and that he resides at the [[Sand Dune of Spirits]]. When the hero reaches Xatu, he tells them that he saw a vision of Mew, the partner's previous self, in the [[Mystery Jungle (Super Mystery Dungeon)|Mystery Jungle]].
 
The hero goes to the Mystery Jungle, and finds Mew there. However, after meeting this Mew, the hero concludes that it is a different Mew, and not their partner. Despite this, however, there are a few moments where Mew looks and acts just like their partner did.
 
A few days later, the hero wakes up in Serene Village on the hill with the tree. At first, they don't know what's going on. After a while, they start remembering what had happened: Mew had fallen ill suddenly, and Xatu had come to the Expedition Society, claiming that he sensed a piece of Dark Matter still within Mew. The hero had taken Mew to Serene Village to show them the view from the hill, in hopes of making Mew feel better. However, the hero was suddenly attacked, and Mew kidnapped.
 
The hero heads back to the Expedition Society, whereupon they find out the attacker had left a note behind. The note states that they intend to sacrifice Mew in [[Purifying Cave]] to eliminate Dark Matter once and for all.
 
The hero heads to Purifying Cave to save Mew. When they reach the bottom, they discover it was Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem behind the kidnapping of Mew. Nuzleaf says that he's truly sorry, but that Dark Matter has to be destroyed. Mew begins to fade away. The hero wonders whether this is really the right thing to do. Remembering the pain they felt when they had to say goodbye to their partner, the hero realizes that they never want to have to say goodbye again. Their strong feelings start resonating with their Harmony Scarf, and it begins to glow. The light from the two Harmony Scarves combines, restoring the partner, but making the scarves disappear. Ampharos shows up, and he reveals that this was all arranged to lead the hero here. Xatu had not seen a piece of Dark Matter inside Mew, but in fact the partner's spirit. Nuzleaf and the Beheeyem, sincerely wishing to atone for their actions, agreed to help by kidnapping Mew and leading the hero to Purifying Cave. If the hero's feelings were strong enough, the partner could come back.  


They begin to climb up the Tree of Life, and towards Dark Matter. They eventually find Nuzleaf and the others being imprisoned by Dark Matter's power, and they free them. They escape, while the hero and partner continue to the top to fight Dark Matter. They attempt to fight Dark Matter, but it regenerates itself. At this point, the Tree of Life runs out of power, and they lose their evolutions. Dark Matter then turns most of the remaining Pokemon left to stone.

The partner says that {{mdc|Xerneas|smd}} made them remember everything, and that they were actually {{mdc|Mew|smd}} in their previous life. The partner says they're the one that has to disappear, not the hero. They say goodbye, and the hero is left there crying after they disappear.
