A random pokemon journey

The Leagues aid finally arrived nearly an hour after I sent the good professor that message and several of them got sick merely seeing the state of the temple. "You and your team look like you fought an angry Dragonite and lost, what happened?" Rowan asked as he walked up to where I was resting against a pillar. "Oh you know just held off a small army of enemies, met some gods, watched a guy get unmade, a normal monday." I said with a chuckle. "I hesitate to ask but could you perhaps be a bit more descriptive?" Rowan asked with an expression that said he'd personally prefer not knowing but he needed to for the record.-

"Well to start out with I arrived and set about making reaching this place a bitch and a half, most of Sinnoh likely saw what I mean. After that Cyrus, the boss of Galactic, and his minions showed up with Cyrus leaving most of his pokemon outside the sandstorm to hold open a way in. To be honest I miscalculated as I assumed he had to reach that altar over there to use the red chains but it turned out he could do so at any point in the temple."-

"He used two red chains to summon Dialga and Palkia who pretty much forced me and my pokemon to our knees and unable to stop Cyrus as the chains bound the two lords to his will. A certain other lord showed up at this point, broke the red chains and dragged me and Cyrus into it's realm. Once there I served as a witness to Cyrus being unmade before getting booted back to reality. After that it was a hard fought battle against the forces left behind of Galactic that were less than happy with their boss being dead." I said giving the old man the rough rundown of everything that happened.-

Rowan paled as I spoke at parts and by the end looked like he didn't have a drop of blood in his body with how pale he was. "C-could you specify what you mean by unmade?" he stuttered as he asked without his heart really in it. "I honestly can't think of a better way to describe it. He was dismantled cell by cell, atom by atom and bit by bit physically, spiritual and mentally right before my eyes. The scream he made as it happened is something I don't think I'll ever be able to forget." I said with a slight shudder just remembering it.-

"I-I see, unmade indeed seems a fitting if disturbing way to describe it." he said and I nodded with no argument. "If you don't mind I think I'll leave the clean up to the league, I'm tired after all this." I said honestly. Rowans expression softened as he looked at me and saw not the mask I showed but the tired man beneath it. "Of course, you deserve a rest after what you've seen and done." he said with a nod.-

Dealing with Galactic had to have been the most stressful thing I have done so far even if in reality I hadn't done all that much. It was a matter of scale to be honest. While Aqua and Magma threatened a region by fucking with Groudon and Kyogre, Cyrus and Galactic were dealing with cosmic level forces. The two levels of danger couldn't even be considered close on the scale. Even worse was that both in the game and in reality if the main character or I didn't interfere the league wouldn't even realize something was seriously wrong until it was too late.-

In the game even with the main character acting against Galactic the league only considered Galactic to be normal thugs until the team blew up the three lakes. Reality differed only slightly because I interfered a lot sooner and gave the league a bit of a heads up on the severity of the problem before the lakes were blown up, not that it prevented it. To put it bluntly this situation had been resolved through what I can only describe as sheer luck despite my best attempt to stop it from playing out.-

We were lucky Giratina stepped in and that was pretty much the only reason for this victory. I even lied slightly to Rowan just now as I knew that if I had explained that Giratina had acted through me that would bring questions I REALLY didn't want to answer. For example how Giratina could act through me which lead to the question why I had it's blessing in the first place. Needless to say that was a whole can of worms best left buried. My explanation painted me as being in the right place at the right time but that was it.-

Anyways While I and my pokemon were sitting off to the side resting the league folks were cleaning up the area of the temple. Collecting the useful parts of the dead pokemon, burning away the corpses they could, scrapping the stone and cooled lava away and water jetting the blood off the stone floor. One of the pokemon involved with that last part was even generous enough to hose off me and my pokemon so we could scrub off the blood and viscera on us, this pair of shorts was totally ruined though.-

Once I no longer crackled from the dried blood on me each time I moved I found a spot behind a pillar and changed my shorts before throwing the ruined pair into the burning pile of bodies. Don't get me wrong I was still absolutely filthy and would need a seriously long soak and scrub to get the rest of the blood off me but at least I didn't look like someone in a horror movie anymore. "We are just about done here will you be needing aid getting back to a city?" Rowan asked as the last of the bodies was being incinerated.-

I looked at rune who was beaten to hell and back with various bruised and cracked bones in places before nodding. "Yeah, we are in no condition to travel the wilds as we currently are." I said with a sigh. "I understand, luckily one of the rangers here has a Salamence and can carry you along." He said reassuringly.
