"We will be reaching the site in a few minutes, sir," the pilot announces. A well-built man, petting a Meowth, and behind him, a purple-haired woman, was sitting. The man smirks, hearing what the pilot said.

Meanwhile, Ash and the others were facing off against Lysandre/Giovanni and Dragon Tao. Dragon Tao had been weakened, and even Mega Mewtwo X had already fainted, but Lysandre/Giovanni was still standing, taking many hits and still not showing even a single scar, still smirking.

"You're weakened Giovanni, give up, Dragon Tao cannot fight anymore," Ash says, his voice filled with determination and anger. Giovanni kept smirking. He throws three Ultra Balls up into the sky, and the Legendary birds were all there in a flash of white. Something about them seemed a bit off. Every legendary bird had a collar, a metal collar, but no one paid real attention to it.

"Moltres, Zapdos, and Articuno show them your power," Giovanni's voice commands. The three birds attack but not willingly. All of a sudden their collar glows in bright red light. The three birds start to tremble in pain. A helicopter just landed and James, Jessie, and Meowth got down, James was holding a device.

"Team Rocket!" Gladion yells in amazement and was about to attack them.

"Hold your mouth, we are here for him!" James says, pointing towards Lysandre/Giovanni. The Legendary birds were still in pain.

"Why?" Gary questions.

"He's made us undergo so many bad things, and we realized that when we went to catch Mewtwo the other day," Jessie replies.

"Red's Mewtwo showed us a vision, of what we truly were and what we should be doing," James adds.

"And that's why we're here to teach, to teach that wise old man a lesson," Meowth adds. Ash and Mewtwo look at each other and smile, Mewtwo nods, implying the truth in their sentences. But they were weak, and Giovanni with his new powers cannot be trusted. Serena had had enough of this confusion for now.

: Flashback to two days ago :

Ash had left Cerulean cave, his mind focused on the league ahead, but little did he know, a sinister plot was brewing behind him. A group of Team Rocket grunts surrounded the cave, ready to capture Mewtwo once and for all. Jessie, James, and Meowth, the infamous trio, walked through the grunts and into the cave, their hearts pounding with excitement and fear. They finally confronted Mewtwo, the legendary Pokémon they had been chasing for so long.

"Finally, after 4 years of waiting," James says, his voice trembling with emotion as he grabs the Master Ball, and reveals another Mewtwo. Both Mewtwo were facing each other, their eyes locked in a fierce battle of wills. But James' Mewtwo senses something else, it senses that Giovanni, the leader of Team Rocket, is alive. Without a second thought, James Mewtwo reluctantly flies out of the cave to the Team Rocket HQ, grabs three Ultra Balls, and flies off to Giovanni.

Meanwhile, back in the cave, Jessie, James, and Meowth were still standing there, their minds reeling with shock and confusion. But Red's Mewtwo simply ignores them, not even sparing them a glance.

"Aren't you gonna do anything?" Jessie asks, her voice shaking with fear.

"No," Mewtwo simply replies, its voice cold and emotionless.

"Why, aren't you angry with us since we came to catch you?" James asks, his voice filled with desperation.

"I'm not," Mewtwo says, its eyes piercing through their souls as it taps the three on their forehead.

Suddenly, their heads start to ache and within moments, the three of them start seeing visions of their past. They see the terrible things they have done, the lives they have destroyed, and the pain they have caused. The realization hits them like a ton of bricks. They realize that they're better off helping people than being criminals. They slowly walk out of the cave, their hearts heavy with guilt and shame.

"Boss, what happened? We've seen a Mewtwo fly out. And some others from our HQ called us to inform us that a Mewtwo was attacking them. They also told me that the Mewtwo stole pokéballs of the Legendary birds," a grunt questions, his voice filled with confusion and fear.

"They're the same," James tells, his voice filled with determination as he motions his hand to knock the thought off.

"Oh," the grunt replies, his eyes wide with shock.

"I have to tell you, people, something!" James says, his voice filled with conviction.

"Yes, Boss!" the grunt replies, his eyes filled with hope.

"Team Rocket is disbanded!" James yells at the top of his voice, his eyes filled with fire. This was shocking news to many, but the truth had to be accepted, Team Rocket's reign of terror was finally over. The grunts, who had followed James blindly, now had a chance to change their ways, to make amends for their past actions. The trio, Jessie, James, and Meowth, stood tall, ready to face the consequences of their actions and make a better future for all.

: Back to the present :

"We're here to reclaim what's rightfully ours," James declares with conviction.

"Traitors!" Giovanni roars, signalling his birds to attack James, but to his surprise, they turn on him instead.

"Now is the time! Chosen One, rise and shine! Now is your time!" a powerful voice echoes throughout the world, leaving all in awe except for Ash, Gary, Paul, Gladion, and Brock.

"Yo, Ketchup, the all-powerful Llama wants you to do something," Paul teases with a hint of sarcasm.

"Have some respect for the gods," Serena scolds, still startled by the voice. But Ash pays no attention, as the aura surrounding him begins to change colours and finally, a sword forms from his aura.

"For the world!" Ash cries as he charges towards Giovanni. With one swift strike, Ash cuts Giovanni in half.

"I will take my re..." Giovanni starts to speak his last words.

"Not again!" Arceus interrupts, seizing the spirits of both Giovanni and Lysandre. "The world has had enough of you. How much longer do you even want to stay on this earth? Aren't you bored?" Arceus says with irritation as it tears their spirits apart. Arceus descends.

All the legendary Pokemon bow, while Ash stands tall and gazes into the sky. Arceus approaches Ash, who speaks with irritation.

"Am I done yet?" Ash asks.

"Yes, of course. You have fulfilled your purpose," Arceus responds, resting its forehead against Ash's. The people around them begin to clap in applause.
