Some are just trainers, some work for the [[JustForFun/ThePokedexExtendedFanonEdition PEFE]], some are saviors of regions, and so on. It Zig Zags the SlidingScaleOfSillinessVersusSeriousness and more or less has crazy things happen on a regular basis to keep things interesting. |

In addition to all this, Jane, Luke, and Tagg all gain amnesia. Luckly for all involved, Tagg recovered shortly after awakening, and both he and Gamer were able to get the other's memories back, then train each other by fighting.

They leave the island after one of the Aipoms joins Anom. Some time later, Pentigan gathers Star, Fool, Anom and Ori over for an experiment on a boat, which ends with Pentigan [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=3917#97910 accidentally dropping]] his GenderBender pendant into the ocean, leaving himself, Fool and Anom stuck as the opposite genders. |

This causes Nihilist!Tagg to take control of him, and uses an aura connection to take control of his Pokémon as well. DS, Luke, Tracer, Anom and Every's Pokémon try to fight him off, with DS eventually putting two and two together and tracking down Emolga. After a long fight, they manage to get Tagg to fall asleep, allowing [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4067#101675 Emolga to return his cynical side]] and returning him to normal. DS catches the Emolga shortly afterwards to prevent her from causing any more problems. After getting his Pokémon back, Wolf is sent to deal with Majora!Fool, and manages to free Fool from the mask's control, before fighting Majora itself. After defeating it, Wolf and Fool reverse the curses cast on the islands by Majora!Fool. |

However, after freeing Ferno, he ends up accidentally alerting the others to their presence. Luke and Tracer's Pokémon attempt to fight off the Delta mons, but as they were still weakened from the fight with Nihilist!Tagg a few days ago, the Delta Pokémon end up winning the fight, and they get away with Pleo. |
| 269 | |
| 270 | The other trainers decide to help Luke search for Pleo and spread across the archipelago, then they realize that Lugia himself is headed towards the Orange Islands when Tagg's Silver Wing begins to glow. Dividing into teams, the trainers begin searching for Pleo and the Delta Pokémon. Each of the trainers search the different islands, looking for clues and spreading the news, eventually finding some Delta Pokemon, but no sign of Pleo. While Silent and Kim spread the news among the wild population (not realizing they get mixed with the news from Algira and a "wooden monster" in an island), Rex finds a Delta Pokémon in the city. |
| 271 | |
| 272 | Tempest, the Delta Feraligatr, and Thyme, the Delta Serperior, rescue Pleo while escaping the Deltas' hideout. Unfortunately, Pleo wakes up Ferno accidentally, forcing Thyme to hold the Deltas while Tempest escapes. Tempest eventually catches up with Luke, Tracer, and their mons, and head back to Shamouti Island to regroup with everyone. |
| 273 | |
| 274 | While staying there, an evil version of [[VideoGame/SuperScribblenauts Maxwell]] attacks Star, but she manages to defeat him using her strange notebook. A Delta Paras tries to infiltrate the group and attack Luke, but gets itself accidentally caught by Gamer. Meanwhile, Luke goes to meet with the Legendary Birds to let Lugia know Pleo is safe. Eventually, Pleo manages to contact his dad via Jello, and tells him he's safe. This results in the skies over the Orange Islands to clear up. Everything seemed to be going fine... |
| 275 | |
| 276 | The day that Lugia is supposed to arrive to meet with Pleo, The Deltas sneak in and steal Pleo back, replacing him with a plush Lugia. When Luke and the others meet with Lugia, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4255#106359 they realize Pleo was stolen]][[note]]or, according to Woolly, TURNED INTO A PLUSHIE!!![[/note]]. This makes Lugia go into a rage, forcing the trainers to fight him while DS searches for Pleo. She eventually fights the Deltas for Pleo, with help from Moltres and Fool. Pleo is won back and returned safely to his father, calming him, while Rex and Silent help hold back an invasion of Delta Pokémon at Shamouti Island. |

All the trainers show up, some in costume, some not. Unknown to almost all of the trainers, Basket infects herself with the Charizard 'M virus. She infects other mons, and start to scare some of the others. What started out as a prank soon turned dangerous, as the infectees' begin to have the urge to infect the whole island. The remaining trainers and their mons fought off the infected, some having better luck than others. Thankfully, it was discovered that Lava Cookies and Full Heals cured the virus. The trainers then cure everyone and end the party, though many of them stay on the island, having nothing better to do. Pentigan finally [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4344#108588 gets his amulet back from Shift]], and returns himself, then [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4348#108694 Fool]] and then [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4354#108848 Anom]] back to normal. |

| 283 | |
| 284 | Tangent, Fool and Silent head to Shining Island to look for news about Basket's flock from Gaebora the Tropius. After Silent moves to Mandarin Island, Maekrite the Nidorino gets into a challenge with a local Nidorino that goes the wrong way, causing Ichtacya, who was checking around for Deltas, to attack him and end badly injured. As a result, Maekrite is banned from the island and Silent leaves to Tangelo Island. |

| 286 | In the AU, Sol has defeated most of the Midori mons, and is allowed to take a break and spend three days in the mortal realm. After the three days have passed, she returns to challenge the remaining four. AU!Tagg continues searching for the Nido, who is heading to Cerulean Cave, but goes for a brief visit to the OU to speak to Tagg. Upon returning, he briefly delays his search for the Nido to check up on AU!DS, who for somewhat unclear reasons had taken back the Lustrous Orb from Mt. Coronet. |

However, their trip to Hoenn doesn't get off to a good start when Tagg gets into a fight with Wolf over what happened back in the AU, putting nearly the entire group into chaos. After things calm down, the two manage to reach somewhat of an agreement. The next day, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4478#111937 DS receives a phone call from Looker]], who informs her that the former Team Galactic scientist Charon has been broken out of jail, but no one knows who did it, or why. |

However, not long after reaching Rustboro, some of them discover that [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4504#112596 Team Magma and Team Aqua are back]], except this time, they are operating legally. However, as they are still causing causing ecological damage, Tagg decides to head over to Petalburg Woods to confront some Team Aqua members who are trying to expand the Route 104 lake. The protestors and some of the wild Pokémon are able to make Team Aqua back away for now, but doesn't make them give up on what they were doing. |

Parisse has trouble with an unknown enemy, Pentigan puts a plan into action so he may later be able to go to Slateport without drawing unwanted attention to himself, and something strange happens to Fool when she tries [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4546#113649 experimenting with her obscura powers]], and the orb she accidentally broke during the OI repairs itself in the process. Team Aqua makes another attempt at their project in Petalburg Woods, and Tagg and the protestors attempt to stop them once more. The Aqua Administrator at the scene, Ryklys, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4554#113843 actually recognizes Tagg as a battler]].

| 302 | As they begin to move on to Dewford, they find that Team Magma is now trying to expand Dewford, and Tagg ends up having his Pokémon dismantle the machines while the Team Magma member is distracted talking to him and Every. Later, Dewford gets attacked by a [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4587#114653 giant tortilla]] of all things, and the trainers fight it off. Team Magma and Aqua also fight it in an attempt to improve the public's opinion of them. During the battle, Crewe in her Sneasel form befriends some Pokémon, later discovering they belong to a Team Aqua member, who then accidentally witnesses Crewe changing back into a human when she drops her armband. While Wolf comes across a Team Magma member who has problems with Pokémon attacking her for no reason. He decides to let her try on an armband so she can learn to understand Pokémon better. Once the tortilla is defeated, a Gyarados shows up and takes the remains of it with it. |

Every ends up breaking a wax statue of himself, and ends up replacing it. The hall that he's in however, becomes [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4623#115565 enchanted by Mew]] so that anyone who enters it forgets about Every being in the J-Team. Wolf and some others find out about a fighting game featuring the group. Straw finds a fan impersonating him. Anom, after being attacked by a disguised Maylene, gets captured by one of his crazy fans, but manages to get free. Rex and Forte regroup with everyone via teleportation hax after Silent's victory over the OI's Champion: Drake. |

When they go to investigate, they find Jane, the Regis, and Jane's Pokémon trying to keep the route clear from Rain and Snow. With everyone's help, the route is eventually cleared- but not before Mew warps in some Fire types from Pokémon Island. They then head on over to the Lavaridge area to relax, challenge the gym and see Mt. Chimney. Kim reunites with Rex at this time, having been promoted to a Top Ranger position. |

Mew attempts to fix the situation by turning Goldeen into Zubats; then meets up with the group and starts explaining things. Mew reveals that [[spoiler:she has been messing with things in a manner]] similar to what happened with the Goldeen. As more Trainers gather there, Mew identifies one of them and reveals that [[spoiler:Crewe is an orphaned Sneasel turned into a human.]] This comes as a big shock to everyone.

With this development the Trainers's bodies remain in induced stasis, and it is up to a group comprised of Luke, Silent and Faith, plus some of their mons, to take care of them while Tagg attempts to bridge the mindscapes and the real world again. |

While that happens, Every's body is returned temporarily, triggering a brief skirmish between Every's mons, Maekrite and Guardé.

Because of all the stuff going on however, the presence of the group at the inn is not well received. Silent and a team leave the town and head to Mirage Tower to go search for Dintel, only to find the tower [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4854#121331 guarded by Team Magma]]. |

| 327 | The characters in the mindscapes have some of their personality aspects randomly emerge on their bodies and promptly causing sillyness all around. Every's body is handcuffed to a bed by a stalker and his mons try to release him by all means. Luke, Tracer and Silent find out Team Magma has taken over Mirage Tower to protect the Pokémon there as well as try to acquire [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=4904#122596 evidence against Team Aqua]] because of a weather manipulation machine; unfortunately, the adventure ends without finding Dintel and with the destruction of the tower.

Because of this, Luke, Rex, and Tagg's teams resort to making use of the Secret Base system. While in Fortree, a number of events occur, including the introduction of Umbra, Jeff, and 49 to the group, and Gamer's Smeargle Meme [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5058#126433 revealing that in fact he's not insane]] and is in fact part of an evil family of Smeargle, The Family of Blood, and [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5058#126441 challenges Gamer]] to a battle within Navel Rock.

It quickly becomes a GambitPileup as Teams Aqua, Magma, and Ozone, fringe elements of the first two teams, agents of Charon, and our heroes compete for the Orb. Unfortunately, Jet, a Team Ozone Admin, ends up winning the tournament by defeating Wolf, but the Orb is stolen from him and ends up in Every's possession. Wolf and DS also have an encounter with the Team Magma grunts Sierra and Vyvyan, who have been investigating the unusual weather. When Vyvyan reveals he has known all along of Sierra's ability to speak to Pokémon, and Sierra is unable to tell him why because she promised to Wolf to keep the armband a secret, Vyvyan runs off, believing she doesn't really care about him. Luckily, Wolf clears up the misunderstanding, and tells him about the armband. Sierra and Vyvyan help gather some information on a weather machine found on Route 120, after receiving a letter from a Swellow explaining Team Magma's findings at Mirage Tower. |

The Absol leads the two to Team Aqua's hideout, where Vyvyan comes across Depthcharge, a clone of Kyogre. Already having found a clone of Groudon in Team Magma's old hideout earlier, Vyvyan is understandably unsure of how to keep two young legendaries under control, and Anja's claims of Vyvyan being "doomed" doesn't really help. Vyvyan's Gardevoir is also unsure what to do, but advices him to continue going on like usual, and enjoy his time with Sierra. Tagg picks up on the presence of Buggle (the Groudon clone) while teaching Fool how to make pokeblocks, and confronts Vyvyan about it. Later, while Vyvyan and Sierra are making a secret base, they notice that Vyvyan appears to be going through some odd changes, as he is unknowingly starting to transform into a Rayquaza from having to keep Depthcharge and Buggle from fighting. |

Some of the trainers, not realizing who the water monster is, try to fight her, until the gems separate from her and she returns to normal.

| 354 | Team Ozone search for Vyvyan in order to speed up his transformation into a Rayquaza, and Anja the Absol, in a rather JerkAss move, uses Perish Song to knock out Vyvyan, Sierra and their Pokémon, allowing Ozone to easily get away with Vyvyan and bring him, as well as Depthcharge and Buggle to their lab. Sierra goes to DS and Wolf for help, who inform some of the other trainers. Having recently learned that the cloned Kyogre and presumably the Groudon were created from humans who lost their memories after transformation, they quickly figure out just what Team Ozone intends to do to Vyvyan. Anja shows up, revealing that Vyvyan isn't the first trainer she has allowed to walk into his doom, and tells Pentigan that something bad will happen to him sometime in the future. Pentigan begins trying to find Ozone's hideout, and more weather related weirdness continues happening more frequent in more parts of Hoenn. |
| 355 | |
| 356 | !! Chapter 57: And Then Vyvyan Was A Rayquaza |
| 357 | |
| 358 | After a few days, Team Ozone's leaders discover what their scientists have been doing behind their backs, and head over to the lab as Vyvyan, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5350#133749 now a Rayquaza,]] awakens to find himself in a tank at Team Ozone's lab. Unlike the Groudon and Kyogre clones, Vyvyan's mind and memories are intact, and he understandably freaks out and starts trashing the lab, until he remembers Sierra and escapes by breaking through the nearest window to go find her. Sierra, her Pokémon and Vyvyan's Pokémon go look for Vyvyan, and they soon reunite. However, Vyvyan realizes that Depthcharge and Buggle are still in Ozone's hideout, and realizes he and Sierra will have to head over there later to rescue them. Pentigan comes across them, revealing that while he hasn't yet found the hideout, he has some idea of where it might be: in the sky. He also tells them that just like armbands that turn humans into Pokémon, there is armbands that have the opposite effect, and they head over to Mossdeep to find Susan and Latias so they can borrow one of the Pokémon-to-human armbands. |
| 359 | |
| 360 | The armband allows Vyvyan to [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5373#134302 turn back into a human,]] and he and Sierra confess their feelings for eachother, deciding to go on a date while Vyvyan is human, unsure at the time if they'll be allowed to keep the armband. |
| 361 | |
| 362 | Mananging to track down a weather machine that is making it hail in Mossdeep, Icicle the Glaceon tries to find a way to make it create snow, while Forte, Pianis and Katie try to figure out how to destroy it. Their attempts cause several other bizzare weather effects, even making it rain, hail, harsh sunlight and a sandstorm all at the same time, which causes Tagg's Castform to get sick. Along the way, Tagg heads over to the same ruins from before and gets another vision from the Unown about a disaster in Sinnoh and a very weird Reuniclus. They eventually manage to destroy the weather machine, and shortly afterwards, Leaflet the Leafeon runs away, believing his father Icicle cares more about snow than he cares about him. Leaflet comes across some Pokémon belonging to a Team Magma member that he gets along with, but Forte and his Pokémon eventually track him down and after a brief fight due to one of the Pokémon not being patient enough to talk things out, Icicle and Leaflet manage to talk things out. |
| 363 | |
| 364 | Tagg heads over to Ever Grande to explore, bringing some of the other trainers along on an adventure in a place containing shrines to certain legendaries, and an old tomb in which they're eventually chased out by a different variety of Cofagrigus. |
| 365 | |
| 366 | Team Ozone's airbase [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5398#134945 appears above Mossdeep]], and Jet takes control from Archie and Maxie, who are revealed to be the leaders of Team Ozone, having formed it in an attempt to make a ridiculous team to discredit the revived Team Aqua and Magma, but lost control of their members. The two are locked up in the Cargo bay, as Jet begins looking for Rayquaza!Vyvyan. Pentigan's Zoroark and DS' Chatot have snuck aboard the airship, and manage to steal some information from Team Ozone's computers. The Latias sisters help Sierra and Vyvyan put up a distraction by disguising herself as Rayquaza!Vyvyan, and keeping the Ozone members' attention on her while the real Vyvyan flies up to the airship with Sierra, [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5406#135137 breaking into the Cargo bay,]] where they end up discovering Archie and Maxie's involvement with Team Ozone, and break the shackles put on them before going off to find Depthcharge and Buggle. |
| 367 | |
| 368 | Thanks to the Pokémon trainers creating multiple distractions, Sierra and Vyvyan manage to get Depthcharge and Buggle back with little resistance, and the airbase eventually crashlands in the ocean when Artesia blows up part of it. Jet manages to escape, lamenting how his plans were ruined, only to remember the advice another Ozone grunt gave him regarding Rayquaza!Vyvyan having kept his memories and how Sierra could probably be used to get him to assist Team Ozone in exchange for her safety, and decides to [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5413#135319 make a new plan.]] After talking to the Latias sisters and being told they may keep the armband, Sierra and Vyvyan go to find [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5418#135445 Archie and Maxie]], and Sierra confronts them about Team Ozone. After exchanging phone numbers, they agree to let eachother know if anything related to the weather machines or Team Ozone comes up. |

| 370 | !! Chapter 58: A Volcanic Finale |
| 371 | |
| 372 | Gamer throws a party celebrating the first anniversary of the group getting together. Over the next few days, increasingly darker clouds begin gradually filling the skies of Hoenn. Jet attempts to kidnap Sierra, but with the help of Styx and some of her teammates, Vyvyan manages to save her. The source of the clouds is eventually tracked to Mt. Pyre, where Charon has been hiding out, with his biggest weather machine. Some of the trainers, as well as Sierra, Vyvyan and the other two cloned legendaries, as well as eventually the original Rayquaza head over there to deal with Charon. Realizing they can't just destroy the weather machine, as it might trigger the caldera Mt. Pyre is on the tip of and set off an volcanic eruption that could destroy all of Pokepan, they decide to try to deal with Charon and his many Rotom, and find a way to safely disable the machine. Meanwhile, Silent, Pikaninja and Artesia are in Mauville, where it is discovered that Charon has been taking energy from New Mauville. |
| 373 | |
| 374 | After fighting off several of Charon's Rotom possessing mechas, Looker shows up to arrest him. Panicking, Charon attempts to try something with the weather machine, only to accidentally trigger the caldera instead. The trainers try to deal with it, as well as the others outside of Mt. Pyre helping with evacuations. Eventually, the weather trio decide to do sacrifice themselves to stop the caldera via an ancient ritual, but the mini weather trio [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5472#136777 decide to help as well]], and with their help, the caldera is stopped without the death of either weather trio. Worn out, the original weather trio decide to sleep for a few days to regain their strength, while letting the mini trio temporarily be in charge. |
| 375 | |
| 376 | So, while Charon has been arrested, and Hoenn has been saved, things aren't quite done yet. So, among the loose ends to tie up, Team Aqua and Team Magma notice something is up with their previously unseen leaders, when they for some reason begin demanding that their members [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5476#136899 transfer all their money into their bank accounts]]. They soon discover that the leaders of the two teams [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5477#136915 were really androids being controlled by Rotom all along]]. Rex's Vaporeon, Aqua, takes the opportunity to become the boss of Team Aqua- if [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5477#136919 she hadn't in fact planned it all along]].

| 382 | !! Chapter 59: Emotion (Sinnoh) / Tutelage (Kanjoh) |
| 383 | |
| 384 | The group ends up splitting up for a bit, with some going to Sinnoh and the others to Johto. |
| 385 | |
| 386 | The Unown's prediction to Tagg comes true as the mysterious Keystone inside his backpack turns out to be the SoulJar for the Obscura King that ruled Sinnoh about a millenium or so ago. Tagg tries fighting against him after being separated from his Pokemon and manages to wound him, but ends up getting a Dark Pulse to the back for his troubles and ends up being saved by his Pokemon, albeit severely injured. The Obscura wizard then uses his powers to cover Sinnoh in a twilight haze that reduces the majority of the population into mere wisps, and cause a mass release of Spiritomb as well as killing off most electronics. |
| 387 | |
| 388 | After making it back to DS' house, Tagg and his Pokemon soon figure out that they're invisible to most other people, and once they manage to get DS and Wolf's attention, Tagg ends up falling unconscious and has to be carried inside. At around the same time, the airship group ends up crash-landing in Sinnoh due to electronic disturbances mentioned earlier. During this time, it's revealed that Souls of Silver appear to have a resistance to the Twilight, as they don't become wisps. Once most of everyone gets back together, part of the group heads over to Mesprit's cavern to see what exactly is going on. Mesprit reveals that in order to free Sinnoh from the twilight, the trainers have to find Tears located all over Sinnoh, starting with her own in western Sinnoh. The trainers then fan out to look for them. |
| 389 | |
| 390 | Umbra and Lina meet, discovering their shared abilities and longevity. Despite a rough start, the two eventually form a relationship. Meanwhile, Umbra catches a rouge Spiritomb who's a Soul of Silver, and Lina obtains a mysterious Alakazam. The two are also joined by Gene and his Pokemon. |
| 391 | |
| 392 | Rex continues his Gym challenge, despite the power outage, eventually obtaining Candice's badge. |
| 393 | |
| 394 | The Morendo family discovers that Sunny is a Soul, and he is promptly used to help the Morendos not get wisped in the twilight. |
| 395 | |
| 396 | Eventually, all but one of the Tears are collected, and there is a massive boss battle against a giant Armortomb. After it is defeated, Mesprit restores her third of Sinnoh, and the team takes a break before moving into the next section. |
| 397 | |
| 398 | Meanwhile Tangent has got himself trapped in Mirage Island together with a Sneasel!Poacher and Vyvyquaza, and Ílex Celebi sends Silent there to rescue them. After that, Silent moves to Johto to help deal with the public relationships of PEFE and the J-Team. He finds himself joined by several mons from other trainers, and eventually ends up splitting his team, leaving Maekrite at the Goldenrod Colony to train both Pierce and Teala while Roc goes to visit Shahinne's bird family. A group of Trainers accompanied by Steven and a mysterious Incognito character roam the eastern side of Johto, and Straw manages to survive a shipwreck in the Whirl Islands, although he is later believed dead. Tracer and Luke arrive to Johto by different means, only for the Johtoan trainer to be [[https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/posts.php?discussion=12971269370A74820100&page=5676#141894 suddenly confronted by Suicune]], who challenges Luke to a battle at a future date. |

| 402 | The Sinnoh group heads into the next section to speak with Azelf. While collecting Tears, at one point they end up getting ambushed in Hearthome by a group of Spiritomb, but get saved thanks to the efforts of some old friends first met during the AU. Another important event that occurs is Forte getting his arm broken by getting it smashed by an Armortomb's mace. At the end of the Tear hunt, the group ends up fighting the Sinnoh branch of the Family of Blood, who anger Tagg enough that after beating them he summons Groudon to drag them all to an ambiguous fate. In the interim while preparing to head up north to Uxie's section, part of the group heads over to the Cubone tribe to use the time tunnels in order to discover the backstory of the Obscura wizard. |
| 403 | |
| 404 | !! Chapter 61: Knowledge (Sinnoh) / ???? (Kanjoh) |
| 405 | |
| 406 | In Kanjoh, some of the trainers return to Goldenrod for various reasons; Jeff has to begin his application for PEFE while Lazy Latios scares a Murkrow murder away, revealing himself in the process. |
| 407 | |
| 408 | Meanwhile in Sinnoh, one of the groups spearheaded by Tagg meets a very distrusting pack of Lucario in the wild and try to convince them to hand over a Tear. During April Fools Day, weird events happen once again, but more Tears manage to be collected. For the last few Tears, the group spearheaded by Tagg ends up getting spirited away to Gracidea by a group of Obscura users to find them amongst the flowers. Umbra ends up dueling with their leader in order to get the very last Tear of the region, and succeeds after a close battle. After Uxie manages to remove the Twilight from northern Sinnoh and the group receives the [[gold:Emblem Of Knowledge]], the group heads once more into the time tunnels to see how Annoski managed to get sealed. |
| 409 | |
| 410 | !! Chapter 62: The Twilit Endgame (Sinnoh)/ ????? (Kanjoh) |
| 411 | |
| 412 | Afterwards, the group ends up heading to three locations: Sendoff Sping, The Flower Paradise, and Alamos Town in order to place the Emblems given into the right spots. Once that is completed, lights from the Emblems fall over the same ruins where Tagg released Annoski in the first place. Once he puts the Adamant Orb in a special slot, time is rewound and the ruins are restored to their original state, a massive tower. Lina, Tagg, and Pentigan end up fighting the souls of the Aura Guardians in order to open a door, where the three face everyone while within a giant robot. After that, our heroes manage to find out Annoski's location, a cathedral to the north of the Battle Zone. |
| 413 | |
| 414 | Everyone teleports there, but Tagg and his Pokemon are forced to go it alone due to Annoski threatening the safety of his friends with the Wondertombs he'd saved just for last. The next morning, Tagg's group infiltrates the Cathedral and confronts Annoski and his personal Spiritomb, being joined by the others soon afterwards while the Aura Guardians hold off the Spiritomb reinforcements. After a tough battle, the Keystone is shattered, reducing Annoski to a spirit, who is then taken away for judgement. The Sinnoh group then returns to the Resort Area to rest and recuperate, where they meet a trainer named Eskay, who had gotten stuck in Sinnoh during the twilight. |
| 415 | |
| 416 | Soon afterwards, hints start being made about returning to the Pokemon-only world... |

Anom is eventually broken out, and taken to PMD with Wolf, Tangent, and DS. Eventually, most of the group finds out that the orb at the top of Destiny Tower has been shattered, scattering shards of it across the world, some across universes. Some members of the group discover that the shards have the power to teleport people and mons across universes. This results in several people leaving and entering the PMD world. |

Following some misadventures they all end up in the former PEFE HQ, meet an AI by the name of Cornn and end up accidently reawakening [=PEFeDOS=], who makes them do more insane tests, until Cornn end up taking control of her stand and pulls a FaceHeelTurn. After managing to defeat Cornn and stop a meltdown of the entire facility, [=PEFeDOS=] decides to forget about taking her revenge, and the group manages to fully listen to AU!Tagg's message, leading Tagg and his mons to head over to Angela in search of the surviving humans and the Brotherhood of Steel, whereas Tracer's group decides to stay in their portion of the world for a little longer. |

Compounding their problems is the fact that due to a Raider attack upon arriving in Angela, Tracer and a dictator Archeops from the Empire of the Ancients end up switching bodies. At the same time they meet with the AU versions of Alistair and Wolf, the latter a shell of his former self following DS' death, in search of the Adamant Orb in AU!Tagg's possession in order to change the results of the dragon war. Following the defeat of the Master and his Lieutenant, Tagg and Cobalt reveal that they always knew about the body swap, and they end up heading to Alto Mare, now known as Almer, via space tunnel in order to get Tracer back. Before then though, AU!Wolf dies sending a message to the past in order to stop the events leading to DS' death. |
| 436 | |
| 437 | Meanwhile in Hoenn, Abigail is forced to come to terms with mutating into a weresow due to an accident in a Hoennese science lab, while Team Nova ends up arriving in the region in search of her. |

Afterwards Tagg and Tracer's groups end up fighting...something before the Time Space Orb is restored to its former glory, and Team Nova gains knowledge of the Alakagross civilization. |
