Chapter Summaries

After discovering that Clear Stream Gym already held extensive information about the Ancient Revival Plan and the Rainbow R Organization, Sun Jun broke down over the apparent futility of his mission and the capture of his companions. Shaymin and the other Pokémon rescued Lan Sanji and Shi Xiaoling from a parallel-time-space Star Alliance Base in fifteen minutes, while Sun Jun began to recover.

• Sun Jun searched Clear Stream Gym's records, found extensive information about the Ancient Revival Plan and Rainbow R Organization, and sobbed over what he and his companions had done.
• Shaymin learned from Weezing and Dragonite that Lan Sanji and Shi Xiaoling had been captured, then summoned Jirachi, Mew, Hoopa, and others to help.

• Jirachi, Mew, Hoopa, and the others dressed as Pikachu 007 agents and used Celebi's time travel to find the enemies' departure coordinates.
• Hoopa Confined brought the group to the parallel time-space, where they rescued unconscious Lan Sanji and Shi Xiaoling from Star Alliance Base within fifteen minutes.
• The little ones returned to Clear Stream Gym, and Sun Jun gradually pulled himself together at the Garbage Dump.

Sun Jun discovered that Jirachi and Mew had rescued Lan Sanji and Shi Xiaoling, along with three Star Alliance members, while he had been overcome with grief. After Lan Sanji and Shi Xiaoling woke, they learned what had happened, and interrogating the transmigrator Corey revealed the Rainbow Guard's power and his plan to seize Ultra Necrozma, leaving them and Mark facing a sleepless night.

• Shaymin told Sun Jun that Jirachi and Mew had rescued Lan Sanji and Shi Xiaoling, then healed them while they slept.

After Clear Stream Village became Clear Stream Town and Clear Stream Gym gained City-Level Large Gym status, Mark tried to register for the World Pokemon Alliance Champion Tournament but was discouraged from competing. He accepted an invitation to present awards instead and returned home with the Legendary Trainer badge and trophy.

• Mark completed the paperwork to upgrade Clear Stream Village to Clear Stream Town and Clear Stream Gym to a City-Level Large Gym.
• Mark learned that the Gym had earned recommendation slots for national and world tournaments, including one for the World Champion Tournament.
• The World Pokemon Alliance recognized Mark as its third Legendary Trainer and awarded him a golden badge and trophy.
• Mark attempted to register for the World Pokemon Alliance Champion Tournament, but the Chairman implied that competing would be unfair to the other Trainers and invited him to present awards instead.
• Mark agreed not to compete and later sat awake at Clear Stream Gym while Lugia and Necrozma stayed with the little ones.

Mark reflected on how his strength and openness had cost him the chance to enter the World Pokemon Alliance Champion Tournament, then experienced a Yellow Millet Dream of reliving his arrival in the world with most of his cultivation knowledge intact. He returned to the present as Jirachi, Mew, Hoopa, and the others gathered around his newly awarded Legendary Trainer trophy and learned that his ID number was 003.

• Mark wondered whether he could have entered the Champion Tournament if he had hidden his Pokémon’s strength, but decided he would still have brought Jirachi and the others into the open.
• Mark’s divination gave him a Yellow Millet Dream in which he relived his arrival at Clear Stream Forest, retaining his cultivation experience but forgetting his bonds with Pokémon such as Jirachi and Caterpie.
• Mark recalled how events in the dream life differed, including meeting Mayo Myers and becoming an Award Presenter instead of competing in the World Pokemon Alliance Champion Tournament.
• Jirachi noticed Mark’s troubled mood, while Mew and Hoopa examined the trophy and badge in his hand.
• Mark told the Pokémon that he had become a Legendary Trainer, and the group discovered that his Pokédex information had been updated with ID number 003.

Mark told his Pokémon that he had become an Award Presenter and that they could not compete in the World Pokemon Alliance Champion Tournament. Hoopa Confined, devastated by the news, fished a Competition Invitation out of its ring.

• Mark revealed that becoming an Award Presenter meant he could not participate in the tournament with his Pokémon.
• Jirachi and the others offered to skip the award role, but Mark explained that Chairman Mayo had also discouraged them from competing because they were far stronger than ordinary Trainers.
• The Pokémon accepted Mark’s explanation, though Jirachi and Mew looked depressed and Hoopa Confined burst into tears.
• Hoopa Confined entered the Other-Dimensional Space and wailed beside its pile of prepared signatures.
• Hoopa Confined fished through its ring and unexpectedly caught a Competition Invitation.

Hoopa Confined received a mysterious Competition Invitation as Mark and the Pokémon discussed how they might compete. Victini discovered the invitation, giving Hoopa a chance to reveal it to everyone.

• Hoopa Confined found a black Competition Invitation in the Other-Dimensional Space and waited to show it to Mark and the others after composing itself.
• Jirachi suggested traveling to another Parallel Time-Space to enter its World Competition, but Mark explained why winning there would not feel right.
• Mew proposed holding a World Competition themselves, and the Pokémon excitedly discussed battle matchups until Mark warned them against performing for an audience.
• Jirachi, Mew, and Hoopa argued that performing would be fun, so Mark struck them on the head and the Pokémon became discouraged again.
• Victini found the Competition Invitation Hoopa had left in the room, and Hoopa remembered that it had obtained it.

Hoopa Confined gave Mark a mysterious Competition Invitation tied to a Mewtwo from another Parallel Time-Space. The invitation offered Mark a place at a banquet and Strongest Trainer Competition after he completed a test, and Mark suspected it had originally been sent to another version of himself.

• Hoopa Confined admitted that he had fished up the Competition Invitation without knowing what it was or where it came from.
• Mewtwo examined the invitation and sensed the power of a Mewtwo from another Parallel Time-Space within it.
• Mark and Mewtwo explained that the invitation was connected to Mewtwo’s Invitational Tournament from the story of “Mewtwo Strikes Back.”
• Mark opened the invitation, whose message invited him to a banquet and Strongest Trainer Competition hosted by its sender’s master, provided he completed a test.
• The invitation presented Yes and No options for Mark to sign, and Mark suspected it had been sent to another version of himself.

A Dragonite courier delivered Mewtwo’s competition invitation to Mark and Zarude, but they could not read it, while other invitations were sent through dangerous environments and disrupted space. The next delivery appeared in the artificial Chaos Space before Flaming, where more than twenty Mewtwo confronted him.

• A middle-aged invitation writer discovered that Mark and Zarude’s invitation had not been sent, rewrote it, and dispatched it with Dragonite.
• Dragonite delivered the invitation to Mark in a forest surrounded by Zarude, and Zarude inspected the envelope before Mark opened it.
• Mark and the Zarude realized they could not read the invitation, leaving Mark unsure whether to accept Mewtwo’s banquet and competition invitation.
• Dragonite used a protective silver bubble to deliver another invitation to Phoenix in a lava-filled underground world, where Groudon watched.
• After the teleportation device detected time-space interference, Dragonite sent an invitation in special mode to the artificial Chaos Space, where more than twenty Mewtwo blocked Flaming and he let a black envelope descend.

Flaming and Mi Yang received invitations to a banquet and Strongest Trainer Competition, while Mi Yang discovered Tai Shan had received one earlier. In Clear Stream Town, Sun Jun, Lan Sanji, and Shi Xiaoling learned more about the rival organizations before an invitation appeared for Corey.

• Flaming used Dark Mewtwo’s energy to discover that his invitation had been sent through a mark on his wrist, and suspected another Mewtwo was behind it.
• Mi Yang received an invitation and learned that Tai Shan had received one the day before.
• Sun Jun, Lan Sanji, and Shi Xiaoling learned from Corey’s interrogation that multiple Rainbow R Organizations existed and that the Star Alliance planned to turn them against each other.
• Lan Sanji and Sun Jun collapsed when Clear Stream Gym’s Combat Training began, while Shi Xiaoling learned she could apply to join the gym.
• A silver bubble delivered an invitation to Corey, and Sun Jun, Lan Sanji, and Shi Xiaoling picked it up.

Sun Jun and his companions received a competition invitation addressed to Corey, but Shaymin did not respond while sleeping at Clear Stream Gym. Meanwhile, Mark returned an invitation Hoopa had taken from its rightful owner, then let Jirachi create another one.

• Sun Jun opened the black card addressed to Corey, which invited him to a banquet and Strongest Trainer Competition after a trial, and Lan Sanji stopped Sun Jun from signing it before contacting Shaymin.
• Sun Jun and his companions waited at the Garbage Dump and gave the recovering transmigrators another dose of Memory Potion, but Shaymin did not reply and its phone was off.
• Shaymin slept through the messages and call at Clear Stream Gym after its phone battery ran out during games with Lugia and Little Fairy.
• In another Parallel Time-Space, Mark received a second identical invitation just as he was about to accept the first one, and Father took it from him.
• Mark calculated that he had returned Hoopa Confined's invitation to its true owner, then agreed to let Jirachi use Small Wish to create another invitation with Victini's help.

Mark had Jirachi duplicate invitations for Mewtwo’s tournament and confirmed that their trial countdowns were synchronized. Jirachi then suggested inviting spectators and a cheerleading squad, and the chapter ended with Jirachi heading to Calyrex’s Coffee Garden to ask Calyrex to grow more invitations.

• Jirachi used Small Wish and Victini’s Infinite Energy to create 156 tournament invitations.
• Mark compared two invitations and found their trial countdowns synchronized, while deciding not to use Hoopa and Victini to locate the trial’s Parallel Time-Space.
• Jirachi explained that the invitations were also needed for spectators, cheerleaders, and cameramen, and Mark considered arranging a broadcast.
• Jirachi suggested that Trainers could forfeit before their matches to become spectators, and Leafeon wondered whether Calyrex could grow invitations.
• Jirachi opened a passage to Mars and went to Calyrex’s Coffee Garden.

Sun Jun, Lan Sanji, and Shi Xiaoling discovered that Mewtwo's Invitational Tournament invitations were being distributed indiscriminately, while Jirachi and Mew harvested more from Calyrex's invitation trees. As invitations overwhelmed Clear Stream Town, Mark arrived in the Zarude Tribe's Chaos Space to bring a Zarude along.

• Sun Jun, Lan Sanji, and Shi Xiaoling found a stepped-on invitation and learned from the Clear Stream Gym announcement that Captain Cai could provide tournament invitations.
• Jirachi gave Shi Xiaoling several invitations, and the three abandoned their plan to report Corey's matter after seeing others with invitations.
• Jirachi and Mew returned to Calyrex's Coffee Garden, where hundreds of Jirachi harvested invitations from Calyrex's trees and left assorted items behind.
• Black invitations and invitation trees spread throughout Clear Stream Town until they became a widespread nuisance.
• Mark arrived at the Zarude Tribe's Chaos Space in the OTZ404 Parallel Timeline and decided to bring a Zarude to Mewtwo's trial.

Mark added Lugia and a rescued Necrozma to his team, then rushed to upgrade the Dream Machine to prepare for Mewtwo’s Invitational Tournament. After Kakuna’s evolution reached its final stage, Mark took him to the CDF1876 Parallel Timeline for the transformation.

• Mark gave up on catching Zarude, caught Lugia, and separated and caught the Necrozma that Corey’s Necrozma had devoured.
• Mark learned that Phoenix had died on Saturn while trying to reach Groudon, and that Red Fire’s Ancient Revival Plan had targeted Mark’s own Parallel Time-Space.
• With the Invitational Tournament only twenty-seven days away, Mark, Mewtwo, Cresselia, and Butterfree spent five days upgrading the Dream Machine.
• The upgraded Dream Cultivation World became more stable and lasted longer, and the two Cosmoem evolved into Solgaleo and Lunala.
• After Kakuna’s evolution advanced to its final step, Mark took him to the Azure Plains in the CDF1876 Parallel Timeline to complete it.

Mark met Old Master Qian and his assigned bodyguard, Martial Artist Mark, at the Azure Plains, where Jirachi and Mew revealed Mark’s competition invitation. Old Master Qian recognized the event and disclosed that he had received an invitation before, but warned Mark against getting too close to Mewtwo.

• Mark arrived at the Azure Plains and apologized to Doctor Noah and Old Master Qian for keeping them waiting.
• Martial Artist Mark appeared and glared at Mark, but Old Master Qian stopped him from confronting Mark.
• Jirachi and Mew pulled up the fishing baskets, teased Doctor Noah about his small catch, and revealed they were Mark’s Pokémon.
• Jirachi and Mew found the competition invitation in Mark’s pocket and said the event was ten days away.
• Old Master Qian showed his own Black Invitation and said Mewtwo had likely sent invitations because of him.
• Old Master Qian revealed this was his second invitation and warned Mark not to have overly deep contact with Mewtwo.

Mark learned from Old Master Qian Cheng and Mark One that the Absolute Zero Chaos Space contained dangerous spacetime turbulence and a mysterious chain that could overwhelm Pokemon. At the entrance, Mark appeared beside a golden Celebi as countless Golden Celebi descended into the Chaos Space.

• Jirachi gave invitations to Doctor Noah and Old Master Qian Cheng, and Old Master Qian Cheng discovered they were real.
• Old Master Qian Cheng explained that the Absolute Zero Chaos Space was also called Area Zero and was linked to Terapagos, though the organization had found few clues about it.
• Mark revealed that he had come to investigate the area's unusual timelines and temporal turbulence.
• Mark One warned that a strange chain-like force inside the Chaos Space could make Pokemon lose themselves, and even his Calyrex struggled to resist it.
• Jirachi and Mew chatted with Mark One about their Calyrexes while Mark quietly moved to the Chaos Space entrance.
• A golden Celebi appeared beside Mark as a pillar of golden light brought countless Golden Celebi down into the Chaos Space.

Mark used Celebi’s time-traveling selves to stabilize the outer layer of the Absolute Zero Chaos Space, then led Kakuna and a powerful group of Pokémon inside to investigate its deeper layers. Doctor Noah realized Celebi traveled through time and space far more often than it summoned copies, while the observers outside were left astonished by Mark’s Pokémon and their abilities.

• Mark explained that tens of thousands of Celebi from the past and future were stabilizing the Absolute Zero Chaos Space, and said Celebi could summon even more after recently improving its ability.
• Doctor Noah reasoned that Celebi must travel through time and space millions of times, and Mark used slowed camera footage to show it flickering as it did so.
• A Celebi reported that the outer layer had stabilized but had not found the chains Mark One mentioned, so Mark decided to investigate deeper layers.
• Mark released Kakuna and many Pokémon, including Rayquaza, Groudon, Kyogre, and several hundred Jirachi, then entered the Absolute Zero Chaos Space.
• Old Master Qian Cheng and Doctor Noah reacted to Mark’s Pokémon, while Doctor Noah recognized that Groudon and Kyogre had completed Ancient Revival.

Old Master Qian and Mark One entered the Absolute Zero Chaos Space and found Mark investigating purple chains that controlled and empowered Pokémon. Mark identified Okidogi as their source, but the Chaos Space remained unstable even after Okidogi and its trio were subdued, while Jirachi unexpectedly became muscular through Okidogi’s power.

• Old Master Qian and Mark One entered the now-stable shallow layer of the Absolute Zero Chaos Space and found Mark near its depths.
• Mark showed that the purple chains could transform him without harming him, and concluded that they came from Okidogi.
• Rayquaza brought Munkidori, Groudon brought Okidogi, and Kyogre arrived with Fezandipiti after the trio had been subdued.
• Mewtwo appeared with a pinkish-purple peach, but the Chaos Space’s temporal currents remained unstable despite Okidogi no longer releasing its power.
• Jirachi appeared with black markings, purple rope around its neck, and bulging muscles after gaining power from Okidogi.

Jirachi tried to coax Okidogi out of its peach shell, then began forcibly prying it open after Toxic Mochi had made it see Okidogi as a friend. Ogerpon struck Jirachi before it could succeed, and Mark One recognized Ogerpon as the green Shadow that had rescued him during an earlier exploration.

• Jirachi showed Mark its new muscular body, took the peach from Mewtwo, and tried Wish to rouse the unresponsive Okidogi inside.
• Mewtwo explained that Okidogi had hidden in the peach after Ogerpon beat it, and Jirachi recalled eating Okidogi's Toxic Mochi and becoming dazed.
• Jirachi decided to pull the peach apart and gained the move Machamp as it strained against the shell, while Okidogi begged it to stop.
• Ogerpon struck Jirachi with a huge thorny club, interrupting its attempt to open the peach.
• Old Master Qian and Zamazenta watched Ogerpon dart through the forest, and Mark One recalled that a green Shadow had rescued him from the chains before.

Ogerpon attacked Mark and his companions while trying to recover her last mask from Okidogi, but her arrival gave Okidogi the chance to reclaim its power from Jirachi. Ogerpon escaped into a hidden Chaos Space with Kakuna attached to her, and Mark pursued them to watch over Kakuna’s evolution.

• Ogerpon struck at Mark, but Mewtwo blocked her club with a Psychic Barrier, and Rayquaza, Mew, and Groudon joined the confrontation.
• Ogerpon told Mew that Okidogi and its underlings had stolen three of her four masks, and that Okidogi still had the last one.
• Ogerpon transformed Groudon’s earthen arm into Terastal crystal, spreading emerald-green crystal across the land as she escaped toward a hidden Chaos Space.
• Mark sensed Kakuna clinging to Ogerpon and used The Nearest Place is the Farthest Place to pursue her, while the other Pokemon followed.
• Jirachi recovered and discovered that Okidogi had reclaimed its power, then asked Okidogi for more sticky cakes.

Jirachi searched for Mark and learned that he had gone after Ogerpon, then tried to force Okidogi out of its peach shell. Okidogi emerged before Jirachi could detonate its powerful attack, and the chapter ended with Okidogi pretending it understood.

• Jirachi asked the other Jirachi and Shaymin where Mark had gone, and Shaymin explained that Mark and several others had pursued Ogerpon.
• Jirachi remembered that Ogerpon had hit it and scolded Shaymin for eating dirt while asking for more details.
• Okidogi tried to sneak away inside the giant peach, but Jirachi caught it and decided to blast the shell open.
• Jirachi attached the Eye of Truth to the peach and prepared a Double Explosion after moving the others and the unconscious Loyal Three to safety.
• Okidogi opened the peach shell and begged Jirachi not to blow it up, then nodded as if it understood when Jirachi stopped the attack.
