1. Ash's Story (Part 0: Prologue)

Chapter 19

In the vibrant Sevestar Region, the reigning Champion is none other than Adam Ketchum. He's not just the Leader of the formidable Team Alpha; he's also a renowned Pokémon Master who hails from the storied Ketchum Family. However, Adam harbors a profound secret that sets him apart from any ordinary human. In truth, he is an incarnation of Arceus, the deity of the Pokémon world, disguised in human form. Beyond his divine origins, Adam is also a masterful aura user, a rare ability that allows him to perceive and manipulate the invisible forces that connect all living things. This unique combination of divine power and aura mastery makes him an awe-inspiring figure in the world of Pokémon.

Currently, the prestigious Sevestar Elite Four consists of Vincent at the pinnacle, followed by Pauline, Isabelle, and the newest member, Colress. Colress's induction into the Elite Four follows a tragic event—the death of his brother-in-law, Mohn, during a devastating Ultra Beast attack. Renowned for his mastery of Ice and Psychic Pokémon, Mohn was not only the strongest member of the Elite Four but also the best friend of Champion Adam Ketchum. The two shared a deep bond, having grown up together. In the wake of Mohn's untimely death, Colress steps up to fill the void left behind. Specializing in Steel and Electric Pokémon, Colress is also a brilliant inventor, continually crafting innovative machines that add a unique dimension to his battle strategies. His technical prowess and fresh approach bring a new dynamic to the formidable Elite Four.

Isabelle, third in rank among the prestigious Sevestar Elite Four, is renowned not just for her Pokémon battles but also for her celebrated career as a cellist. She uniquely specializes in Dark and Ghost Pokémon, integrating her musical talents into her battle strategy. During her live performances, Isabelle plays haunting classical music that is said to channel the spirits of the composers themselves, creating an eerie yet mesmerizing atmosphere at her battles.

Isabelle's personal life is equally vibrant. She is married to Jackson, a famous rock star known for his electrifying music that can rally any crowd. Together, they have a son, Giacomo, who carries a blend of his parents' musical prowess. Giacomo often collaborates with Ash, Alice, and Reisa, lending his skills as a DJ to provide soundtracks that enhance their adventures and experiences.

Pauline hails from the Dragon Village in the Unova Region, where the lore of dragons is deeply woven into local culture. She expertly specializes in Dragon and Flying type Pokémon, showcasing her formidable battle skills. Beyond her prowess in the Pokémon arena, Pauline is also a dedicated teacher at the Opelucid Trainer's School. There, she supports Drayden, the respected Gym Leader of Opelucid, in nurturing the next generation of Pokémon trainers.

Pauline's personal life is intertwined with her professional world. She is married to Lance, who not only reigns as the Johto Champion but also serves in the elite G-men force of the International Police, tackling threats across the globe. Despite the challenges in their lives, including Pauline's inability to bear children due to infertility, they embrace their circumstances with resilience. Recently, their family has grown through the adoption of two children, Drandon and Lucine. Pauline and Lance provide a loving and secure home for their new children, ensuring they experience the warmth and stability they deserve.

Vincent, the esteemed leader of the Sevestar Elite Four, originates from the vibrant Alola Region. He specializes in Fighting and Ground type Pokémon, a choice that mirrors his own physical prowess. Vincent is not only an adept martial artist but also an accomplished lucha-libre wrestler, having won numerous trophies that attest to his skill and determination in the ring.

Family plays a central role in Vincent's life. He is the devoted father to his daughter, Eri, whom he is passionately grooming to become an athlete. His influence is a mix of nurturing and coaching, aiming to instill in her the same dedication and discipline that brought him success. Additionally, Vincent's brother, Kukui, is a notable figure in his own right. Recently married to Burnet, Kukui is a respected scientist who runs a well-known laboratory in the Alola Region. This connection adds a layer of academic and familial ties that enrich Vincent's life, intertwining the worlds of Pokémon battles, family, and scientific discovery.
