00:00:02,200 --> 00:00:06,480
Speaker 1: The Ilola region is a breathtaking tropical paradise famous for

2
00:00:06,559 --> 00:00:11,919
its brilliant, endless sunshine. Life in this archipelago revolves entirely

3
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:15,560
around the warmth and energy of the sun. The plants

4
00:00:15,599 --> 00:00:19,839
grow larger, the ocean sparkle brighter, and the pokemon radiate

5
00:00:19,879 --> 00:00:23,399
a cheerful, vibrant energy that cannot be found anywhere else

6
00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,600
in the world. At the very highest peak of Pony

7
00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:31,000
Island stands the altar of the Sun. This ancient towering

8
00:00:31,039 --> 00:00:34,600
structure of golden stone was built thousands of years ago

9
00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:38,439
by the first inhabitants of a Lola. On this particular morning,

10
00:00:38,840 --> 00:00:43,479
the altar was a picture of absolute peace. Curling comfortably

11
00:00:43,640 --> 00:00:46,920
on the warm ancient golden steps was a young Litton.

12
00:00:47,600 --> 00:00:50,960
This small black and red fire cat had found the

13
00:00:50,960 --> 00:00:55,479
perfect sunbeam. His dark fur absorbed the intense tropical heat,

14
00:00:55,920 --> 00:01:00,240
fueling the tiny fire sack inside his chest. Around him him,

15
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,799
colorful comfae floated gently through the air, and small pickapec

16
00:01:04,959 --> 00:01:09,640
chirped happily in the nearby trees. The world was warm, safe,

17
00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:14,400
and perfectly still. Lytton let out a soft, vibrating purr,

18
00:01:14,840 --> 00:01:19,519
his eyes closed in absolute bliss. But the cosmos is vast,

19
00:01:19,879 --> 00:01:24,840
and it hides terrors beyond mortal comprehension. Without warning, the

20
00:01:24,879 --> 00:01:28,599
perfect blue sky over a lola shattered. It did not

21
00:01:28,680 --> 00:01:33,040
simply cloud over. The very fabric of reality tore violently open,

22
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:37,359
creating a massive, terrifying tear in space and time known

23
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:41,879
as an ultra wormhole. This rift swirled with chaotic, dark

24
00:01:41,920 --> 00:01:46,840
magenta energy, resembling a bleeding wound in the heavens. Lytton

25
00:01:46,879 --> 00:01:52,200
woke up with a gasp, his fur standing completely on end. Instantly,

26
00:01:52,640 --> 00:01:56,159
the comforting warmth of the sun was violently sucked away,

27
00:01:56,840 --> 00:02:01,680
a freezing, unnatural cosmic cold descend upon the tropical island.

28
00:02:02,239 --> 00:02:07,599
The brilliant sunlight was instantly replaced by a suffocating absolute darkness.

29
00:02:08,360 --> 00:02:13,360
Lytton shivered violently. The tiny fire inside his chest flickered,

30
00:02:13,759 --> 00:02:17,319
struggling to survive against the chilling vacuum of the alien

31
00:02:17,360 --> 00:02:22,240
frost around him. The cheerful picapec fell completely silent and

32
00:02:22,319 --> 00:02:26,000
fled into the dark bushes, while the colorful tropical flowers

33
00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:30,599
instantly withered and closed their petals in fear. Descending slowly

34
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:35,000
from a swirling cosmic rift was an ancient, terrifying entity.

35
00:02:35,680 --> 00:02:39,960
It was Necrosma. This cosmic horror did not look like

36
00:02:40,039 --> 00:02:45,240
a normal living creature. It was composed entirely of massive, jagged,

37
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:50,479
black crystalline prisms. It moved with a jerky, unnatural and

38
00:02:50,680 --> 00:02:56,280
robotic stiffness. Necrosma was a being of pure, agonizing hunger.

39
00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:59,840
Eens ago. It had been a creature of blinding light,

40
00:03:00,319 --> 00:03:03,680
but its energy had been stolen, leaving it as a hollow,

41
00:03:03,840 --> 00:03:08,199
shattered shell. Driven completely insane by the endless pain of

42
00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:13,319
its emptiness, it traveled across dimensions, invading worlds to forcefully

43
00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:18,599
consume their light, and now it had found Illola. Necrasma

44
00:03:18,680 --> 00:03:22,240
hovered above the altar of the Sun, its crystalline body

45
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:26,360
absorbing every single photon of light in the atmosphere. The

46
00:03:26,479 --> 00:03:32,240
darkness it created was absolute. It raised its massive prismatic arms,

47
00:03:32,680 --> 00:03:35,719
preparing to drain the life force of the entire region.

48
00:03:36,360 --> 00:03:39,919
Lytton pressed his small body against the freezing golden steps,

49
00:03:40,319 --> 00:03:44,520
too terrified to move, watching helplessly as the monster prepared

50
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:49,759
to extinguish his world. Suddenly, a profound, resonant roar echoed

51
00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:52,840
from the very center of the altar. The sound was

52
00:03:52,879 --> 00:03:57,439
so majestic, so incredibly powerful that it actually pushed back

53
00:03:57,479 --> 00:04:00,840
the freezing cosmic wind. From the gold golden stone of

54
00:04:00,879 --> 00:04:04,800
the altar. A blinding, magnificent pillar of pure white and

55
00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:09,439
golden light irerupted into the black sky. The light coalesced,

56
00:04:09,879 --> 00:04:14,360
taking physical form. When the brilliant aura settled, a colossal,

57
00:04:14,439 --> 00:04:18,879
majestic beast stood proudly on the ancient stones. It was

58
00:04:18,959 --> 00:04:25,000
the legendary Saalgallio. Saalgallio resembled a massive, heavily armoured lion,

59
00:04:25,519 --> 00:04:29,160
its body gleaming with the flawless brilliance of pure sunlight.

60
00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:33,920
Its mane was a spectacular array of golden and white points,

61
00:04:34,079 --> 00:04:39,040
radiating an intense, comforting heat. From his hiding place, Litton

62
00:04:39,079 --> 00:04:42,920
felt the wave of glorious warmth wash over his freezing fur.

63
00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:46,439
The small fire cat let out a desperate gasp of

64
00:04:46,480 --> 00:04:50,319
relief as his internal fire flared back to life, fueled

65
00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:55,160
by the lion's radiant presence. Saalgallio's eyes burned with a fierce,

66
00:04:55,480 --> 00:05:00,000
unwavering azure light. It was the absolute embodiment of the Sun,

67
00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,199
and it would not allow its home to be consumed

68
00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:09,600
by the dark necrosmas. Jagged black prisms twitched violently, will

69
00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:13,720
the light of a Lola be extinguished forever. Can Sulgalio

70
00:05:13,879 --> 00:05:17,319
break free from the terrifying grip of the cosmic parasite,

71
00:05:17,759 --> 00:05:21,560
or will the world freeze in eternal darkness? Don't wait
