** Imagine the thought of his plans coming into fruition: after N had done his part and gotten all trainers in all regions to release their Pokemon, only Ghetsis and his followers in "his" Team Plasma would be allowed to have and use Pokemon, meaning they'd change the entire system of Pokemon training so that anyone else having Pokemon would be against the law. Therefore, the masses of the world would be left defenseless against Team Plasma's oppression of them. Through threat of force via their Pokemon's powers, Ghetsis and his cronies get to enslave the entire world. Oh, and he also had the [[spoiler: Adamant, Lustrous, and Griseous Orbs]]...

*** If Ghetsis ''did'' take over Unova (and he was dangerously close to doing so) the whole Unovan economy would be a complete wreck. Remember that in the games, pretty much everything revolves around Pokémon.
*** And Ghetsis' reign won't last long, either. With so many trainers void of Pokémon, all of which are now in one place, and a PC system that can loot boxes to boot, [[TemptingFate Ghetsis is literally asking for Cipher to come in and take over]]. And you thought a ruined economy was bad enough...
**** Worse still, Ghetsis seems like the type of person who could very easily win Cipher over and get himself elected their new grand master. He has no qualms with having Pokemon OR people physically harmed (demonstrated further in the sequels) and even seems to get off on torture of all forms, be they physical, emotional, or mental. Added to that, his ultimate goal is nothing short of unlimited privilege and control over everything that lives.

*** That assumes one of the heads survived. Considering it has two brainless heads the heads of it's previous form likely killed each other and it grew a third one from the shock in order to survive. Now consider that Ghestis has a vastly under-levelled one, he may have killed the heads himself.

The bottom has high leveled Pokémon and random things scattered all over the forest area clearly left by previous trainers and humans that had wandered into it, then when you reach the center where the apparent Pokémon crash landed from space(According to the townsfolk at least). You hear a loud bellow and suddenly the forest is caught in a flash freeze and the previously blocked off cave has a clear path, with the dragon waiting for you.
