So you came for me. I thank you for that! Since you've been good,
I'll give you something I've been keeping for this very occasion. Look there.
The painting shows tales passed down by my ancestors, the Draconids.
[grunts] And now the time has come for me to pass that lore on to you.
[grunts]
[gasps]
Last millennia, a huge meteoroid impacted on the surface of the planet.
The land cracked.
[dramatic music playing]
[explodes]
[Zinnia] Natural energy poured out from deep beneath Hoenn.
Thirsting for that bounty of power,
two Legendary Pokémon, Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon,
fought in a series of endless, furious clashes.

[roars]
[screams]
[crashes]
[powers up, fires]
[rumbles]
[explodes]
[Zinnia] My people could only watch as disaster upon disaster swept over them.
So they made a wish for salvation
that Rayquaza, the Legendary Pokémon, would appear, clad in emerald light.
This wish was able to bring people and Pokémon together,
enabling the Legendary Pokémon to completely change its appearance.
[whooshes]
[yelps]
[laughs] Sounds like Mega Evolution, doesn't it?
Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre vanished into the depths of land and sea.
Peace returned to the world.
[grunts]
My people constructed this great tower
to hold the Rainbow Stone that had granted Rayquaza its power.
[groans]
[gasps]
But they foretold that a meteoroid would fall on this land again.
One far greater than those that had come before.
Great enough to break the world forever!
[whooshes]
I spent a long time thinking about
how I, someone who holds both the knowledge and the power,
could protect as many people as possible.
-[thumps] -[grunts]
Ah, ah, ah. And that brings us to the end of our tale.
Welcome to the Dragonhark Altar.
The show is about to start.
Ever since I was a little girl so full of uncertainty
that I felt my heart might be completely crushed by it,
I’ve always turned my eyes up to the endless sky above.
Now you know what I’m trying to do.
I intend to use the Mega Evolution Key Stones I've acquired
to summon Rayquaza in order to destroy the meteoroid headed for Hoenn.
That is my solemn duty.
[Aster murmuring]
If something happens to me, please, take this little one.
All right then, here I go.
With jewel bright and borrowed might,
I summon thee, Rayquaza!
Great Rayquaza, hear my wish!
Show me your true face!
Hey! Come on, please show me!
Then the one without enough power is you, Rayquaza?
-[stones clatter] -[grunts] How can this be?
[Rayquaza roars]
That Meteorite, it's just like…
…a Mega Stone.
It seems that our great protector, Rayquaza, chose you…
…and has forsaken me.
[Zinnia] The only one who can direct it now is you.
[grunting]
[growling]
[roars]
[crackling]
[tender music plays]
Go on! You have to catch it!
[grunts]
[Poké Ball beeping]
[footsteps approaching]
[gasps]
I thank you.
It's time now for my final duty
as the last Lorekeeper of my people.
[grunts]
-[growling] -[roars]
[Zinnia] Ever since I was a little girl,
I've always turned my eyes up to the endless sky above.
