Pokémon: The Hoenn Gods as Starters

After witnessing Arceus's Psychic Plate completely purge the corruption left behind by the Dark Ball from Deoxys, Aiden nodded inwardly.

As expected of the Creator God.

Even a single Plate possessed such incredible power.

He couldn't help but wonder when he would obtain the Flying Plate or Dragon Plate.

If Rayquaza could receive the blessing of one of those Plates, its strength would undoubtedly continue rising steadily.

Once the two Deoxys settled near the Psychic Plate and established a place of their own, Aiden finally relaxed.

At that moment, Mewtwo suddenly approached him.

Its gaze locked onto the Mega Stone in his hand.

"What is that?"

"It feels... strangely attractive to me."

Seeing Mewtwo's reaction, Aiden took out the Mega Stone.

The moment Mewtwo sensed its power, its emotions became noticeably unstable.

"This is a Mega Stone."

"And it belongs exclusively to you."

"Which means..."

"Perhaps long, long ago, Pokémon like you once existed."

"Otherwise, a stone like this would never have appeared."

The moment those words left Aiden's mouth, Mewtwo froze.

What did that mean?

Wasn't it an artificial Pokémon?

Wasn't it merely a clone?

Could there have been other Mewtwos in the distant past?

If that were true...

Then it wasn't alone.

Not a unique aberration.

At that moment, Mewtwo stared directly at Aiden.

Waiting.

Hoping.

Wanting an explanation.

Wanting proof that it wasn't some unnatural existence.

Seeing that expression, Aiden sighed softly.

"Normally, Mega Evolution is a form of ancestral awakening."

"Every Pokémon possesses the possibility of Mega Evolution."

"It means none of them are truly unique lifeforms."

"Even Legendary Pokémon are no exception."

"The reason many Mega Stones haven't been discovered yet is simply because they remain hidden."

"If there's truly only one unique existence in the world..."

"Then perhaps only Arceus qualifies."

"Arceus created all Pokémon."

"It gave birth to this world."

"There are countless species living across the planet."

"And even humans haven't discovered them all."

"The depths of the oceans."

"The highest mountains."

"The hearts of volcanoes."

"No one knows when a new species or even an entirely new region might be found."

"As for you, Mewtwo..."

"Perhaps beings like you existed long before Team Rocket ever appeared."

"Team Rocket may simply have recreated that form."

"And this Mega Stone is your proof."

"So, Mewtwo..."

"You aren't alone."

After a brief pause, Aiden continued:

"And although this may sound offensive to you..."

"You were born from Mew's genes."

"But for every Pokémon in existence, Mew represents the beginning."

"When Arceus created the world, Mew became the first Pokémon."

"It is the ancestor of all Pokémon."

"Every Pokémon carries traces of Mew's genetic heritage."

When he finished speaking, Aiden handed the Mega Stone to Mewtwo.

Mewtwo trembled.

For so long, it had hated being called Mew's clone.

It wanted to escape that identity.

To prove it was its own being.

Yet after hearing Aiden's explanation, its convictions began to waver.

Did it truly hate Mew?

Not really.

It merely hated being viewed as an imitation.

But now...

If every Pokémon inherited Mew's ancient genetic legacy...

Then perhaps it wasn't so different from everyone else after all.

Otherwise—

Why would this Mega Stone exist?

"Mewtwo."

"Hold it."

"Draw out the power within."

"Let it resonate with my Keystone."

"Show the world your true strength."

Following Aiden's instructions, Mewtwo let out a powerful cry.

Instantly—

The Mega Stone.

The Keystone.

Aiden.

And Mewtwo.

All four resonated simultaneously.

Brilliant rainbow-colored light erupted.

Within that dazzling radiance, Mewtwo's body began to transform.

Moments later—

A pink humanoid Pokémon emerged from the light.

Compared to its previous form, it now possessed a long purple tail extending from behind its head.

Its physique had become slimmer and more refined.

And strangely enough...

More adorable.

"Ding!"

Looking at Mega Mewtwo Y, Aiden nodded with satisfaction.

After Mega Evolution, Mewtwo had reached an astonishing level of strength.

Even more remarkable—

Its potential had risen from red to rainbow.

A level usually reserved only for true Divine Legendary Pokémon.

"You've become incredibly strong, Mewtwo."

Feeling the power flowing through its new body, Mewtwo smiled.

"Thank you."

The words came out awkwardly.

Almost embarrassingly.

Before Aiden could respond, Mewtwo immediately used Teleport and vanished.

However, just as it disappeared, a voice echoed inside Aiden's mind through telepathy.

"The chip..."

"It's gone."

"Thank you."

Whether it was the Psychic Plate...

Mega Evolution...

Or both together...

The Team Rocket control chip had completely disintegrated.

For the first time since its creation—

Mewtwo was truly free.

Seeing how awkwardly Mewtwo expressed its gratitude, Aiden couldn't help but laugh.

"Being a tsundere is out of fashion these days, Mewtwo."

"Don't act so awkward next time."

"We're partners, after all."

A moment later—

A single response echoed back through telepathy.

"Okay."
