~Story
A very long time ago, six hundred years to be exact, a brilliant and ruthless knight claimed dominance over five kingdoms.
His name was Sir Gallant IV, and he was a Gallade warrior, capable of defeating thousands on his own using his Aegislash, Spectral, and his Rapidash, Prominence.
After defeating the five rulers, he declared himself the holy ruler of all the kingdoms, and united them into his own land, the Heaven's Gate.
Each kingdom had it's own specific power and role, and it's ruler was unique from everything else.
The first kingdom was the Ancient World, ruled by the feared Aerodactyl, Meteor. It was full of ancient Pokemon and the citizens and soldiers alike served to sacrifice themselves at their own peril.
The second kingdom, the Holy Empire, was ruled by the lone Queen Aether, a Gardevoir whom Gallant later married. The empire obtained eternal peace, and rarely went to war.
The third kingdom was the Dark Moon Kingdom. It was mysterious and dangerous, led by the evil Sableye, King Shadow V. The battle was brutal, but ultimately, Gallant prevailed and sent the former king to the dungeon.
The fourth kingdom was ruled by the Fairy Tribe, it's female chieftain a powerful Mawile named Lunar. She was sworn enemies with King Shadow, and even helped in the fight against him.
Lastly, the fifth Kingdom was none other than the mighty Mystic Empire. It was ruled by a great Pinsir, Emperor Chronos.
Emperor Chronos had been feared by all the kingdoms, until Gallant conquered top. But, Gallant sensed a powerful companion inside the former emperor, and had him as his successor.
When Gallant died, the Emperor ruled in his place as the ruler of the Heaven's Gate. He later changed it's name to the Mystic Empire in honor for his old kingdom.
Then, disaster struck. The legendary Yellow Blood clan appeared. They filled the kingdom's eyes with terror. Showing no mercy, they destroyed the kingdom, killing it's people.
It was all because they wanted to stop the empire from expanding.
The Bloods were a barbaric clan who sought to conquer the empire in order to prevent it's emperor from completing his plan to protect and enrich his kingdom. All he wanted was to expand it around the world, but they wouldn't let him.
Luckily for the emperor, he escaped. He sought assistance from the legendary Pokemon, Giratina, who struck a deal with him.
He would make the Pinsir's wish come true, in exchange for his patience.
To do this, Giratina merged the souls of Gallant, Meteor, Aether, Shadow, and Lunar, into what he called the Prime Orb. But it came at a cost. He shattered it apart, hiding all one hundred pieces around the world.
He told Chronos to search for these pieces. Throughout the years, he found all 100 pieces.
These pieces will be put together once all of them are found. When the orb is complete, it will shatter apart the Yellow Bloods, take back the Empire and successfully complete the empire and it's previous ruler's desire.
When the Pinsir found the last one, he used the orb at it's maximum power. It did more then he thought it would, completely obliterated everything in and around the empire.
Unfortunately, many of the Yellow Bloods escaped, including their leader. The leader stole that orb and removed all of it's power before Chronos could use it to restore the empire.
Since then, the Mystic Empire had been foully misjudged as the true enemy, and because of the destruction the orb caused, had been known by the rest of the world as the Savage Clan.

"And that's why the world despises the empire that we are. They think the Bloods are their saviours, when in reality, they are the true enemy."
The Riolu looked confused. "But you killed my father. My mother told me so."
The fog around them seemed denser. It seemed to surround the Riolu.
"Your parents were secretly part of the Bloods." The Pokemon said. "They wanted you to grow up and join them. You were tricked into believing THEY were the heroes. They wanted to make you their future leader."
"But if they did, then why did they cut my eye?"
"They wanted to make you believe we did it. They wanted to make sure you completely believed them, without a care for your pain."
The Pokemon's voice turned serious. "Now, it is your turn, Prince Silver. Your turn to decide. Whether you join us, the true heroes, or them, the enemy."
The fog around them lifted heavier. It surrounded the Riolu even more.
The Riolu tried to piece together everything. "My mother...lied to me? Why...? Has my life... been a lie?"
"Do you want to see the future of this world, or do you want to see end? It is all your decision. We need your alliance. They cut your eye, after all." The Pokemon continued.
The Riolu hesitated. Then...
He nodded.
"If what you said is true, if my mother lied to me...I will join you, and I will assist you."
The Pokemon smiled. "Thank you. You made the right choice. We need your power against them."
By now, the Riolu was completely surrounded by the fog. It was so thick, you could barely see him.
The Riolu nodded. "My name is no longer Silver. I am not the prince of the Yellow Bloods, but a servant of the true heroes., the Mystic Empire. From now on, they will know me as Ultra.
"Very well, Ultra." The Pokemon said. Suddenly, he shouted. "YOU ARE WITH US!!!" He gathered the fog around him, and shot it at him.
The Riolu was overtaken by the fog. He was horrified at first, but soon found it...comfortable. He grinned as it completely surrounded him and filled his body.
"I am Ultra, and I am the ally of the Mystic Empire. Enemy of the Yellow Bloods, and the future king of the Empire. My purpose..."
Is to destroy the Bloods.
