The painting she pointed at depicted meteorites falling from the sky with Groudon and Kyogre fighting at the bottom. I didn't know what Kyogre looked like but I knew what Groudon did so I assumed that the other Pokemon was Kyogre. Groudon had two Ω symbols on its arms and Kyogre had two α symbols on its fins. They were locked in a raging battle with two smaller Pokemon that flew around them that looked like Latios and Latias in their Mega Evolutions. Above them was a Pokemon who looked like Rayquaza but different. It had a Δ symbol on it's forehead and it looked so majestic and powerful even though it was an old painting.

"Oh! There it is! The painting of that day, 2,000 years ago!" Latias said with excitement.

"Hush! Let Zinnia tell the story. She is the Lorekeeper after all," Latios said.

"No, it's fine. After all, you two were the ones who passed down the lore to me since no one else in my family was able to."

"What do you mean?" Steven asked.

"Well, the lore would've been passed onto me by my mother or father but my father died before I was born and my mother was killed by my possessed uncle when I was five."

"Wait! What do you mean by possessed?!" I asked.

"I'll get to that later. Well, let's just get on with the story then," she said before she looked back up at the painting,"My people know it. From generation to generation the lore of Hoenn, of the Great Dragon Rayquaza, is passed on. Long ago, 2,000 years ago to be exact, Hoenn was caught up in turmoil. Kyogre and Groudon had awoken but were at peace with each other. Then, suddenly out of nowhere, a powerful energy started pouring out of the Cave of Origin in the crater where Sootopolis City was located. Suddenly, they transformed, and this transformation was later called 'Primal Reversion.' The peace between them broke as soon as they transformed intro Primal Kyogre and Primal Groudon and they started to fight each other in vicious firestorms and rainstorms for many days. My people, the Draconids, had a wish for them to stop as many people were dying because of the two Pokemon and their destructive powers. Then two fast blue and red Pokemon came and they carried five stones, three rainbow colored stones and two purple stones, one with a red color and one with a blue color. Apparently, these stones had formed from the 'Primal Energy' from the Cave of Origin."

"So, those two Pokemon...they were Latios and Latias, right?" Ruby asked.

"Yes! The two Eon Pokemon right here are the very same ones from 2,000 years ago."

"Yes, that is us," Latios replied.

"We may seem old but we're still really young for being 2,500 years old ," Latias said.

"Okay, enough with the interruptions! Now let me continue! Okay, so the two Pokemon gave the head of the Tribe of Draconids the three rainbow colored stones, which later became known as Key Stones. There were other tribes in Hoenn but the Draconids were special since they were the only ones who could command and befriend Dragon Pokemon so easily so that's why the fast Pokemon came to their aid from their wish. The head of the Tribe was also known as the Lorekeeper. With the three stones in hand, he summoned the Dragon Pokemon that had stopped Kyogre and Groudon once before. The Dragon Pokemon that was only known in stories. The Dragon Pokemon that no one had never seen and was thought to have never existed at all. Then a green light appeared and the Great Dragon Pokemon descended from the heavens above. The Lorekeeper wished for it to stop the two Primal Pokemon from their never ending battle. As he did, a great change came over the Legendary Pokemon. It was enveloped in blinding light. As the light receded, the Draconids beheld a Rayquaza beyond all knowledge— a sublime figure, incandescent with overwhelming life force. It was humanity's wish that brought about Rayquaza's transformation in the face of the rainbow stones. Not only that but the two fast Pokemon transformed, after Rayquaza did, into two purple and white Pokemon that could Fly so fast that they could even tear a hole in the fabric of space. Rayquaza was therefore, the first Mega Evolution to occur and Latios and Latias were, notably,  the second and third Mega Evolutions to ever occur. "
