The [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}}, first appeared in [[Area Zero]] after Professor [[Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Turo]]{{sup/9|V}} created a time machine using {{Tera}}stal energy in the [[Zero Lab]] in order to bring Pokémon from the ancient past{{sup/9|S}}/distant future{{sup/9|V}} into the present day world, in hopes that Pokémon from the time period that the professor has dreamed of learning more about would be able to live in harmony with the Pokémon of the present. The Legendary Pokémon was stated to be an ancient{{sup/9|S}}/future{{sup/9|V}} form of the present day Pokémon {{p|Cyclizar}}. The Legendary Pokémon was docile and friendly and, after being documented by the professor, would also occassionally live with the professor at the laboratory on [[Poco Path]] along with the professor's son, [[Arven]]. However, the Legendary Pokémon was eventually returned to Area Zero in fear that its presence would garner too much attention.
{{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}} are said to be said to be from a parallel, prehistoric{{Sup/9|S}}/futuristic{{Sup/9|V}} timeline, before being pulled out from there through the "[[time machine]]" made by using [[Terastal energy]].
 
They were brought to Paldea's Area Zero by [[Professor Sada|Sada]]{{Sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo|Turo]]{{Sup/9|V}} in the [[Zero Lab]], where their "time machine" was built. They did so in order to bring Pokémon from the ancient past{{sup/9|S}}/distant future{{sup/9|V}} into the present day world, in hopes that Pokémon from the time period that the professor has dreamed of learning more about would be able to live in harmony with the Pokémon of the present. The Legendary Pokémon was stated to be an ancient{{sup/9|S}}/future{{sup/9|V}} form of the present day Pokémon {{p|Cyclizar}}. The Legendary Pokémon was docile and friendly and, after being documented by the professor, would also occassionally live with the professor at the laboratory on [[Poco Path]] along with the professor's son, [[Arven]]. However, the Legendary Pokémon was eventually returned to Area Zero in fear that its presence would garner too much attention.


Eventually, Professor Sada/Turo succeeded in bringing forth a second Koraidon/Miraidon from the time machine; however, this individual was significantly more aggressive, violent, and territorial. The second Legendary Pokémon attacked the first during a territorial dispute. The professor attempted to protect the first Legendary Pokémon, but took a mortal blow and [[Death in the Pokémon world|died]]. The first Legendary Pokémon was eventually defeated and weakened, and in its fear, eventually escaped Area Zero and wound up stranded near the [[Inlet Grotto]], losing all of its powers in the process.

The stranded Koraidon/Miraidon was eventually discovered by {{ga|Florian}}/{{ga|Juliana}}, who fed it a homemade {{i|sandwich}}, which allowed it to regain some of its energy. After Florian/Juliana met Arven, the latter entrusts the Legendary Pokémon's {{i|Poké Ball}} to them. Florian/Juliana, while unable to use the Legendary Pokémon in battle due to its weakened state, relies on it as a partner to travel across Paldea during their journey. During the '''Path of Legends''' storyline, the Legendary Pokémon repeatedly begs the player for Arven's [[sandwich]]es made with the [[Herba Mystica]], and gradually regains most of its powers, barring its ability to battle.
