"in the Crown Tundra"
Natsu, and Lucario climb a mountain with Tigra on Natsu's shoulder. Natsu wears a long black coat with a purple tank top underneath it, dark red puffy pants and black boots with silver tips at the toe area. He wears his Mega Glove, Z Ring on his left hand and wrist, and his Dynamax Band and Fusion Gauntlet on his right hand and wrist, a red headband covering his forehead as cold wind blows. They reach the top and arrive at the Crown Shrine
Natsu: Finally we've made it here. The first place Dad anf Ryoto ever teamed up.
Lucario and Tigra look to the right and see someone approaching wearing a black cloak
Natsu: Who are you?
???: I see you're doing well, Natsu. It's been a real long time.
The person removes their hood and reveals themselves as Gio. Natsu and his Pokémon smile
Natsu: Gio!
Lucario: Io!
Tigra: Gra!
Natsu and his Pokémon run up to Gio
Natsu: It's great to see you again. How are things at Gara Labs?
Gio: It's amazing! Ever since I started to study more about Pokémon to become a Professor it's been tons of fun. There are even Trainers who ask to be researchers and go out there like we did.
Natsu: That's great to hear.
Gio: Have you been mostly battling Legendary Pokémon since we parted ways or have you been catching strong Pokémon?
Tigra jumps onto Natsu's shoulder, and Lucario gets next to him with it's arms crossed. Natsu pets Tigra and places a hand on Lucario's shoulder
Natsu: Both actually. Right after we left Gara Labs we went to some mountain in the Kanto region and battled Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres. Along the way to the next battle I've met tons of crazy strong Pokémon who have become my friends and have been helping me battle these legends.
Gio: I've seen your title matches and you've only used the Pokémon you used in the Masters Eight Tournament from back then. How come?
Natsu: I gotta keep them on their toes. They'll always think I'll use a different Pokémon. Eventually the others will have their debuts, but not yet.
Gio: I see. So how are Alex and your kids?
Natsu: They're doing great. My youngest kid set out on his journey about a month ago. Alex calls me and tells me about how he's doing. I caught Nash's first Pokémon for him, I just wish I could've seen his face when he saw it.
Gio: Wait you caught a Pokémon for him?
Natsu: Yeah. I caught him a Riolu I found as an egg about two weeks before his birthday.
Gio: That seems to be your families Pokémon.
Natsu: My father caught one, my gramps had one, and I have no idea who else in my family before gramps had one.
Gio: So what about the twins?
Natsu: I know Grace is doing well, she calls me every day. Luka I have no clue, he calls Alex who then calls me to tell me what he's up to. He's a stubborn one. So how is Blake is your kid?
Gio: Blake is doing great with her art career. Luna is pretty much helping with research.
Natsu: Have you caught Arceus yet?
Gio: Nope. Haven't come close to completing the Pokédex yet. But I'm still going to find it and ask it why we exist.
Natsu: You definitely haven't changed a bit. So why are you here?
