I would like to thank Avenger Angel for the amazing banner.

Even Gods may die.
Whoever said those fateful words would never know exactly how right they were. In arrogance, however, the Gods ignored those words, and remained blissfully ignorant of what was coming for them.
--*--*--*--*--*--
Ten years ago, the remains of every great criminal organization, Teams Rocket, Aqua, Magma, Galactic, Plasma, along with the dying remains of Cipher, joined together, the leadership finally seeming to realize that one single group could not win ,but united they were unstoppable, or at least that was the theory. This group did not take a different name, instead operating under their old monikers, and in secret, began to build up a following, with the horridly unoriginal goal of world domination.
Now word of this could not help but reach the Pokémon League World Council, the body that governed the entire world, who immediately decided that action had to be taken to stop this new, massed organization from doing serious damage, and immediately assigned the top secret organization Section 51 to deal with the matter. Section 51 detailed two full strike teams to locate and destroy this group’s base before one of the insane scientists who worked for them could do something stupid.
The commandos were too late. Even as more than fifty of the highest trained and most skilled killers in the World Councils employ stormed the base, the unified criminal Teams began one of the greatest endeavors in history. Having learned that the mysterious type plates found in the ruins near Undella Town in Unova, and underneath the Sinnoh region contained a small fragment of the power of Arceus Itself, these men sought to do the unthinkable; Kill Arceus.
The plan was simple: By means of some unknown machine, the scientists planned to summon Arceus and then drain the Alpha Pokémon of its power, which would be placed inside of soldiers to create the ultimate super soldiers, allowing the group to overrun the people of the world with ease. At least was the theory. However while Section 51 didn’t factor in the appearance of half finished super soldiers in the base defenses, the combined scientists made a further mistake. While the summoning of Arceus was successful, when they attempted to strip it of power, something seemed to have malfunctioned in the system.
In reality nothing went wrong. However sensing that Arceus was in peril, the other legendaries tried to defend the God of Pokémon in the only way possible. Some of them poured their powers into the commandos assaulting the building, hoping that if the soldiers could arrive in time, the process might be stopped. Others used their own powers to defend Arceus. Both efforts where partially successful, while Arceus was unaffected, the Legendaries trying to defend it where stripped of the powers they had, and died. Those who were attempting to aid the commandos were successful as well, and the strike team managed to reach the lab where the extraction was taking place. However, when the remaining soldiers entered that room, something unforeseen occurred. The machine being used to extract the power of the Legends was turned against the soldiers, who were mostly unaware that they were playing host to the power of Gods, and began to strip those legends aiding them of power as well.
By this point, it seemed that the only Legends alive were either pushing power into the soldiers, unaware of the fate that awaited them, or Arceus itself, who, stripped of any more protectors, was slowly dying as well. As the strange machine stripped the remaining Legends of their power, Arceus, nearing death, used that last of its power to destroy the machine, just as the last bit of power was absorbed from the other Legendaries.
The immediate result was incredible. The machine, not yet having transferred the power to the prearranged vessels, and working beyond what it was designed for, exploded with a force that could not be measure in conventional terms. The ball of energy could be seen for thousands of miles in all directions, destroying the chain of Islands that the group had used to hide, and began to expand outwards, threatening to engulf the nearby regions of Sinnoh and Hoenn.
For in that instant the world might have ended. Every single Legendary Pokémon, Gods thought to be immortal, was dead. With nothing to contain the powers they once held; powers that held the Laws of the Universe intact, time ceased to flow, space became distorted, and the weather began to act in strange ways.
Yet, the Universe would not be undone that quickly. Instead, the power that was once contained in each Legendary Pokémon rushed into new vessels. The dome of energy abruptly vanished, the explosion’s force lost. Mass panic threatened to ensue, and the World Council took action stepping in to state the explosion was the result of criminal activity, but that the criminals had been dealt with. The public bought the excuse for the most part and life went on.
--*--*--*--
Section 51 however was not satisfied with the callous dismissal of such a massive blast (which required a new unit of energy to be created: The blast was rated at one Supernova by Section 51 analysts), and began to launch a covert investigation into what happened. Lead by the only survivor of the massive blast, a man known simply as Cartright, the entire organization began to search for an explanation of what had occurred that day.
It took them nearly three months to track down a man who claimed to understand the events that had occurred. When they did, the man willingly explained that he had worked for the combined organization for a time, until they had started looking into the creation of super soldiers. He got as far as explaining that Legendaries where involved before someone shot him at long range with a sniper rifle. Section 51 had all the information they need to draw conclusion however. Armed with the knowledge that legendaries were involved, Section 51 began to search for the elusive Pokémon. Normally a needle in a haystack sort of search, the process was complicated by the fact that the leaders of Section 51 were working without government approval.
However luck was behind them for a time, as almost before the search began, a reconnaissance scan of the area of the blast revealed something shocking. The island was not destroyed, but everything on it was. A through search turned up a single document however, which changed the course of the investigation.
Laying in the dead center of what was later determined to be the building that kick started the entire affair, was a single sheet of paper, typed, single spaced. The paper was fairly simple, explaining in simplistic terms what had happened months earlier. However, it cut off before explaining the reason for the energy blast vanishing, leaving Section 51 empty handed, besides the knowledge that the legends were dead. However this left a question still unanswered.
Why wasn’t the world ending?
This question baffled the brightest minds of the hidden Section 51 for months; theories proposed growing wilder and wilder. Finally almost a full year after the incident, when the public had all but forgotten it, Section 51 found the answer they were seeking. The power of those Legends who had died was now stored in containers around the world. Still working without World Council authorization, Section 51 began to try and find these new containers of Legendary power.
What began as a simple mission quickly changed however, when the remnants of the combined criminal teams, now calling themselves Team Eclipse, began searching as well.
Even as Section 51s finest soldiers are scattered to the four winds, racing to find whatever it was that could contain the power of the Gods, Eclipse has given the world and ultimatum. “Surrender the Gods, or blood will rain from the heavens”. These words delivered by a man in a black cloak over world wide Television, carry a chilling message, showing just how far Eclipse is willing to go to obtain the powers of Gods.
The clock is ticking, on both the search, and the fate of the world.

Section 51:
Section 51 is a top secret military group, formed by the World Council, after so many criminal organizations built up, and then got destroyed by singular 10 year old trainers. The objective of Section 51 is simple: to deal with large scale threats, such as Team Plasma, or the newly formed Team Eclipse. Armed to the teeth, and given the most rigorous training possible, a single one of these soldiers can, and often will, kill groups of opposing foot soldiers who outnumber then by as much as twenty or more. In some situations Section 51 operatives are tasked with undercover operations, to infiltrate and destroy groups from the inside out, but most often their plan of attack it to simply kill everything before that can react.
In terms of equipment, Section 51 is on the cutting edge. Any soldier in Section 51 has access to any modern weapon you can imagine, and sophisticated body armor, which provides complete mobility, but also affords protection from most side arms, and shrapnel.
Beyond their skill in combat, Section 51 soldiers are also highly skilled battlers, with each soldier having a chance of defeating an Elite Four member, although this would be unlikely.
However, Section 51 is handicapped by the fact they must answer to the government, and cannot operate in force without the authorization of the World Council, which prevents them from bringing any serious amount of power to bear in countering the threat of Team Eclipse until it might be too late.
Section 51 is trying to defend the Containers, and destroy Eclipse.

Team Eclipse: (Notes from the Archives of Section 51)
Eclipse is a recent occurrence, rising up from nothing and quickly turning into the biggest threat we have faced in recent years. Formed from the remnants of the ragtag coalition made up of the remains of several notorious criminal organizations, Eclipse didn’t seem all that threatening, until we began to search for the Containers. Not long after the first teams where dispatched, Eclipse came on the World Television networks, and even radio, to proclaim the following.
“To those who it may concern: No matter what happens your efforts will be in vain. Surrender the Gods, or blood shall rain from the Heaves.” When that transmission was complete, the programming returned to normal.
In the ensuing time, terrorist attacks have happened in every major city, destroying infrastructure, and causing general civilian panic.
Eclipse is trying to capture the Containers, and then use them to take over the world.
--*--*--*--
Legendary Containers:
The Containers are actually a series of crystals scattered around the globe.
To gain the legendary's power; a human simply needs to physically touch the crystal. At that point, the crystal is absorbed into the human, and the human now has that legendary's power. This process has a few side effects however. As long as a person holds a crystal inside of them, they will slowly begin to take on the form of the Pokémon that the crystal is associated with. This process is slow, taking between three days and a week, however when complete, that person will in essence become a Legendary Pokémon.
The process of transformation is slow, and happens in stages. If for instance someone was to acquire the crystal that contained Mew’s powers their transformation might happen something like this: The person’s skin tone would slowly change, becoming pinkish. After a day or two the person might acquire a tail, and ears like Mew. Over the course of another few days, this person would shrink and slowly take on the form of Mew. At any point a person may chose to give up their powers, reverting to a completely normal human once again. However if they chose to take up the crystal again, they will return to their previous state. If a person containing on of these crystals dies, the crystal can be found simply laying next to the corpse.

Mt. Cornet: Section 51 base
“Alright people, orders have just come in from up top,” The base commander began without preamble, bringing the meeting to order. “We are moving to end these terrorist threats. In related news, you will be continuing the search for those Crystals, and research will still be working as ordered.” I blinked.
The commander had always been a serve person, standing at only five eight; he made up for his lack of size with sheer presence. His stocky build and take no prisoners way of acting made sure that we listened to him.
“Blackwood, I want to talk to you.” With that, the meeting was over. Each group commander already had their orders, to be carried out as they saw fit. I followed the commander into the hallway, letting him speak first.
“Blackwood, I assume you have you life wrapped up for a while?” I nodded. The commander smiled grimly. “Good, since you are going out in the field. We have located bases in every region thus far, and people are being sent out to deal with them. Right now, your goal is to find and eliminate a pocket of terrorists in Castelia City. Our people there will assist you.” I nodded.
“Yes sir.” The commander nodded to me, and left. I quickly checked to make sure I had all my things before pulling out a Pokéball, and calling out Gallade. “Castelia City.” I told the swordsman Pokémon, who glowed, and my vision flickered I and was gone.
