The Dragonspiral Tower wasn’t what I expected. Or, well…I didn’t really know what to expect. I can honestly say I was scared going in. From the ground it just looked so…looming. So dark and mystical. Victories over all those Plasma grunts helped restore my confidence, though. By the time I had reached Brycen and Cheren I was feeling pretty good about the whole ordeal. Having them close by and ready if something went wrong made those final steps to the top easier.

…I still can barely believe it. But, I can’t not believe it when I saw it with my own eyes. I remember coming up the steps and feeling the ground shake…I remember what he had said before—N.

“Now I know what power I need. Zekrom! The legendary Pokémon that, along with the hero, created the Unova region. It’s my turn to become that hero—and you and I will be friends!”

I didn’t believe it—didn’t think it was really possible. Not just the first part, but the last. I wondered how he could tell me he was going to make sure that Pokemon and people were taken from each other and never allowed to be together again, that he wanted to keep me and my Pokemon apart, and still say we’d be friends.

But as I watched Zekrom land beside you…I can’t deny it. You said to find Reshiram, to try and awaken it and face you, hero-to-hero…I don’t know which surprised me more; that you were in fact one of the legendary heroes, or that you believe I may be one, too. But that isn’t important really, is it? You are, and I may be. And I will listen to your words, take your advice though it would mean the possibility of your dream being shattered. Which makes me wonder…

Do you want me to find Reshiram and face you because you think you’ll win…or you hope you’ll lose?
