Following the events of [[The Indigo Disk]], a strange mist will appear at the Crystal Pool when the player returns there. The player, as well as {{ga|Koraidon}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{ga|Miraidon}}{{sup/9|V}} is then able to meet the real Professor Sada{{sup/9|S}}/Turo{{sup/9|V}} from some point in space-time, who has not yet completed their time machine. After a brief conversation implying that Paradox Pokémon come from parallel timelines, the player will be prompted to exchange [[Briar's Book]] for the Scarlet{{sup/9|S}}/Violet{{sup/9|V}} Book. The player cannot deny the request made by Sada{{sup/9|S}}/Turo{{sup/9|V}} to trade books. Following this scene, the player will be returned to a permanently different [[main menu]], where the Book will be visible again, featuring a new arrangement of the main Pokémon theme.

The player must have {{p|Terapagos}} either in their [[party]] or [[Pokémon Storage System]] for the cutscene to activate.

Even before this point, the player is able to read the [[Area Zero journals|Professor's notes]] in the [[Area Zero Underdepths]], noting that they received a white book from a child in an eastern land. Since the Professor doesn't seem to have given Koraidon{{sup/9|S}}/Miraidon{{sup/9|V}} their name yet at this point in their life, (referring to them as the {{p|Koraidon|Winged King}}{{sup/9|S}}/{{p|Miraidon|Iron Serpent}}{{sup/9|V}}) it is implied that this encounter inadvertently triggered a {{wp|bootstrap paradox}} by telling them what their Legendary Pokémon was called and inspiring the Professor to continue their research on Area Zero or possibly creating an AI, if the player references it in their dialogue.
