==In the core series games==
The Heroes of Truth and Ideals are mentioned in {{2v2|Black|White}}, and are usually called "The Twin Heroes". According to legend, they once shared a powerful dragon, but could not decide whether to pursue truth or ideals. The dragon split into two parts, with {{p|Reshiram}} following the Hero of Truth and {{p|Zekrom}} following the Hero of Ideals. 
At the beginning of the games, {{p|Zekrom}}{{sup/5|B}} or {{p|Reshiram}}{{sup/5|W}} resides in [[Dragonspiral Tower]] as the [[Dark Stone]]{{sup/5|B}} or [[Light Stone]]{{sup/5|W}}, respectively, and is called upon by [[N]] to create a world where people and Pokémon are separate. The {{player}} is tasked with resolving the history the twins began in the past by finding Reshiram{{sup/5|B}}/Zekrom{{sup/5|W}} in the Light Stone{{sup/5|B}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}} and reviving it.
It is also said that one of the Twin Heroes built the [[Relic Castle]], which became the center of civilization in [[Unova]]. Presumably, it is the Hero of Truth{{sup/5|B}}/Hero of Ideals{{sup/5|W}} due to the Light Stone{{sup/5|B}}/Dark Stone{{sup/5|W}} being found here.

One day, the two brothers began to fight over their beliefs and started a war in the process. This devastated the kingdom and caused the [[Dragon Force]] energy that was enriching their kingdom to become destructive and chaotic, causing it to destroy the land.  
One day, the two brothers began to fight over their beliefs and started a war in the process. This devastated the kingdom and caused the [[Dragon Force]] energy that was enriching their kingdom to become corrupted, turning into a destructive and chaotic force that destroyed the land.  


The chaos the Dragon Force caused forced the King to use {{mov|Victini|Victini|14}}'s power to move the [[Sword of the Vale]] to the location that would eventually become Eindoak Town. Despite managing to calm the Dragon Force, the King unfortunately died soon after, accidentally leaving Victini trapped inside of the Sword of the Vale's barrier. Reshiram and Zekrom, exhausted from their battle, reverted into stones known as "[[Dragon Stones]]". Guilt ridden, the brothers took and hid the stones in a secret cave hidden deep underneath the castle.

[[File:Heroes of Truth and Ideals Adventures.png|thumb|250px|The Hero of Truth and the Hero of Ideals with the Original Dragon]]
Prior to the start of the {{MangaArc|Black & White}}, the Heroes of Truth and Ideals were twin heroes who created the [[Unova]] region. They used a powerful Dragon {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} and eventually the two brothers argued over how to rule the Unova region. The elder brother pursued the truth while the younger brother pursued ideals. Unable to choose a side, the Dragon Pokémon split into two beings: {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Reshiram}}, who sided with the elder brother, and {{DL|Tao trio (Adventures)|Zekrom}}, who sided with the younger. Sometime after the two brothers battled, Reshiram and Zekrom transformed into the [[Light Stone|Light]] and [[Dark Stone]]s, respectively.

The legend of the twin heroes parallels the Roman myth of {{wp|Romulus and Remus}}, two twins who founded the city of Rome. Likewise, the twins built the Relic Castle, which became the center of civilization in Unova, much like Rome in real life Europe. The twins' disagreements leading to a fight also parallels the Roman myth.
