* 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. | * 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.

* [[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]]. | |||

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. | |||

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.

* A thousand years after the events at Meteor Falls, a primal energy-filled meteor struck Hoenn, creating a crater that'd become Sootopolis City in the future. {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} reawakened to fight over primal energy once again. The people of Hoenn wished on {{p|Rayquaza}} to save them, and using the meteor, Rayquaza performed the world's first [[Mega Evolution]], defeated the two, took away their [[Primal Reversion|Primal forms]] and put them to sleep once again. [[Sky Pillar]] was built in Rayquaza's honor, and the [[Draconid people]] promised to pass down the prophecy that in 1,000 years the meteor would return - causing the events of the [[Delta Episode]]. | |||
