You Were Told to Catch Pokemon, So Why Did You Catch Arceus?

Tao Fei had a dream.

In it, he met Arceus.

The Alpha Pokémon said that in ancient times, it had given its seventeen Plates to seventeen Legendary Pokémon. Now, it wanted them back.

Tao Fei suggested that Arceus find someone to do the job for it.

Arceus nodded.

Tao Fei said cheekily, "Hey, Arceus, why don't you just come with me?"

"Who else in this world could be your partner and Trainer but me?"

"Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I'll even help you find a few Plates to play with."

Arceus raised its head. A sphere of light gathered above it, shining brilliantly.

Then Tao Fei woke up.

He opened his eyes, feeling embarrassed about his chuunibyou behavior in the dream.

And there, on his bedside table,

was a Poké Ball.

-

"Arceus, use Judgment!"

Groudon, Kyogre, Rayquaza, and the other Legendary Pokémon cried, "Stay away from us!!!"
