As | As an Azoth Kingdom councillor, Alva is knowledgable in the art of arcane science and the history of the kingdom. For several years he educated [[Rali]], the young prince of the kingdom, who also had interests in these subjects. However, unbeknownst to many — save for [[Chymia]], Rali's sister, who does not trust him and is suspicious of his motives — he is actually a corrupt man plotting to seize control of the Azoth Kingdom for himself. For this purpose, Alva brainwashed Rali into loyalty to him, and developed his own type of arcane science — dubbed "neo-arcane science" — in order to create a technique called "Mega Wave," which, unlike [[Mega Evolution]], can force many Pokémon to Mega Evolve at once and follow the orders of those with Mega Wave devices. | ||
Alva first appears when his henchmen, [[ | Alva first appears when his henchmen, [[Levi]] and [[Cherie]], deliver {{OBP|Magearna|M19}} to him and Rali after fighting off an attack by {{OBP|Volcanion|M19}}. While Rali introduces himself to Magearna, he waits quietly until Volcanion returns with {{Ash}} in tow. Using the Mega Wave jewel set in his staff, he attacks them with a Mega {{p|Alakazam}}, Mega {{p|Glalie}} and {{shiny}} Mega {{p|Gengar}}. After a short standoff, Volcanion escapes with both Ash and Magearna, angering him. Shortly afterward, Levi, Cherie and the Pokémon catch {{TRT}} sneaking into the castle. Alva meets with Team Rocket in his office, and sensing an opportunity after realizing they know Ash well, recruits them to aid his cause. He supplies them with Mega Wave bracelets along with a {{p|Heracross}} and {{p|Pinsir}}, then tracks Ash, {{ashfr}}, Volcanion and Magearna's location so he can send Team Rocket after them. | ||

When | Later, after Team Rocket fail in their mission, Alva personally leads a massive attack against the [[Nebel Plateau]], Magearna and Volcanion's home. He traps Ash, Volcanion and many of the Pokémon of the plateau in machines that torture them with electrical currents. When Levi and Cherie demand that Magearna surrender to them in exchange for the safety of the hostages, it gives in and boards their airship. Rali becomes excited about their success, but Alva simply has his Gengar paralyze Magearna and open the hatch on its chest, revealing its Soul-Heart. Realizing that Alva intends to remove the Soul-Heart, Rali tries to stop him from doing so. Undeterred, Alva has Levi force Rali to watch as he removes the Soul-Heart — effectively "killing" Magearna — then discards its body before having his army of Pokémon all use {{m|Hyper Beam}}, seemingly killing all of the humans and Pokémon below, and putting the horrified Rali to sleep with Gengar's {{m|Hypnosis}}. En route back to the Azoth Kingdom, {{MTR}} realizes he can still hear Magearna's voice alive in the Soul-Heart, rallying [[Jessie]] and [[James]] to try and take it back from Alva, who blasts off Jessie and James while holding Meowth hostage to continue translating Magearna's voice. | ||
Alva installs the Soul-Heart in a machine at the heart of the kingdom's castle, transforming it into a flying fortress designed by [[Nikola]] to defend the city in ancient times. When he realizes that his enemies survived his attack at the plateau and are approaching aboard Chymia's flying machine, he becomes excited to test the weapons the castle has on them. He begins charging the fortress's laser cannon, but it does not fire, as Magearna is actively fighting his control. Alva fortifies himself inside the control room while Dohga and Ether go out to fight off the attackers with their army of Mega Wave Pokémon, but Ash, [[Ash's Greninja|Greninja]], Chymia, her Mega {{p|Gardevoir}} and Volcanion manage to break through and reach him. He traps them in the same electrical torture machines he used earlier, then decides to break Magearna's spirit by forcing it with Gengar's {{m|Mean Look}} to use the laser and destroy the Nebel Plateau. The act of destroying its home causes Magearna's soul to fade from the Soul-Heart, pleasing Alva, who then orders another shot to finish off both the plateau and all its residents. It fires, but is blocked through a combination of the efforts of the plateau's Pokémon and [[Squishy]], who briefly takes its Complete Forme to overpower the attack. Volcanion then breaks itself and the others free from the machines. Panicking, Alva orders Gengar to attack, but {{AP|Pikachu}} counters its {{m|Shadow Ball}} with {{m|Electro Ball}}. Alva drops his staff as a result of the blowback from Electro Ball, and Ash jams it into the machinery, breaking the Mega Wave jewel. As a result, all the Mega Wave Pokémon revert to their original states and escape from the fortress. Realizing that his plans are destroyed as a result of Ash removing the Soul-Heart, Alva locks the fortress on a collision course with the Nebel Plateau in hopes of destroying it and killing all of his enemies, then attempts to escape using a jetpack. Greninja, who has become Ash-Greninja, throws a {{m|Water Shuriken}} at him, which fails to directly connect but still disables his jetpack, causing him to spiral out of control into the forest below. | Alva installs the Soul-Heart in a machine at the heart of the kingdom's castle, transforming it into a flying fortress designed by [[Nikola]] to defend the city in ancient times.
