Xanza Plot

(Some suspension of belief is required to make this plot canon to some PT characters.)

Xanza's Childhood
3,000 years ago, Pokemon and humans lived a separate existence. There was a peaceful village of Pokemon. A royal family of ghosts had much influence over the village. Three sisters, a Shuppet (Helia), Misdreavus (Medina), and eventually an adopted Duskull (Fatine), lived in happiness with their mother and father. One stormy night, a baby in basket arrived in front of the royal family's doorstep. It was a baby Deino. The family, rather than abandoning the infant, decided to raise him as their own. They named him Xanza. In the following weeks, the baby's personality became apparent. He mostly kept to himself and was somewhat cold. He was fascinated by the hunts conducted by Houndooms. When he began to speak, he asked many unusual questions about death, immorality, dueling, and even magic. ('Magic' was something usually performed by Psychic and Ghost types.) Once he was capable enough, he got extremely good at dueling. Battling in the old days was referred to as 'dueling'. Xanza had a cold and calculating way of facing his opponents, even if they were much bigger than the Deino. As his reputation grew, so did his popularity. He developed into a young and confident Deino, all traces of his lonely nature seemingly gone.

Xanza's Rise To Power
Xanza was a popular Pokemon in the village, and many seeked advice from him. The three ghost sisters adored him. One day, a group of armored men set fire to the Pokemon village for resources. They killed an important influential Pokemon, which decreased everyone's morale. Xanza decided to give an important speech that inspired all the Pokemon to fight back. He lead the charges and drove the humans out of their home. Many hailed him as a huge hero that night and it sealed everyone's faith in him. Over time, he evolved into a Hydreigon and was made official leader of the village.

The Great Terror
Xanza wasn't completely good though, he had a hidden dark side. Obsessed with magic and immortality, he experimented in various ways to achieve invincibility & immortality. One day, an explosion occurred from his cave. The Pokemon villagers rushed to see what went on. He underwent severe mutations, becoming giant and more powerful than ever. Other than the arms, he still looked like a recognizable Hydreigon. After everything they went through, the villagers decided it was best not to question their leader. Life went back to normal for a while until Xanza proposed a plan that would affect the world and he would eventually earn the nickname from humans, 'The Great Terror'.

The Dark Trio
Xanza began working everyone up against the humans. He proposed that all Pokemon should band together against the humans and that they should become the dominant species. Not everyone believed in his hateful message, especially the ghosts who raised him. One night, the parents were found murdered in their house. This greatly upset the three sisters. Xanza blamed the humans and it caused a huge uproar. Everyone joined in Xanza's plan. Helia, Fatine, and Medina were deemed 'The Dark Trio.' and took part in many important missions.

The Catalyst Crystal & Three Heroes
After Xanza took control of the world, humans from a mystical and now-forgotten tribe decided to do something about it. This tribe had a strong relationship with Pokemon and could be considered the first Trainers, except they didn't control them. The humans were aware of and believed in the potential relationship between all Pokemon and humans. After a long amount of time, they created the 'Catalyst Crystal'. This device was created with immensely strong magic and was designed to defeat the powerful Xanza. They chose three Pokemon to be the users of this mysterious object because of their pure aura and good heart. The three heroes were a Typhlosion, Arcanine, and Infernape, all coincidentally Fire-types. When activated, it would gave immense power to the users for a limited amount of time & severely weaken Xanza.

The Shadow Temple
Once the Fire-types knew how to fully use the Catalyst Crystal, they began their treacherous hike to the Shadow Temple. The temple was where Xanza was currently residing in. They began their infiltration. The Shadow Temple contained powerful Pokemon and an intricate Labyrinth that would starve those that couldn't make it out in time. Once they got past all that, they came face-to-face with the Dark Trio, now fully evolved, minus Fatine who was still a Dusclops.

The Truth Revealed
The Typhlosion seemed to know the truth behind the Dark Trio's parents and Xanza. After a long & emotional battle between all of them, the Fire-types won. The Typhlosion revealed the truth using the Catalyst Crystal. It acted as a sort of camera and showed them that it was Xanza who murdered their parents. Medina was horrified and didn't know what her sisters thought. The heroes then proceeded to Xanza's chamber.

The Final Ancient Battle
The heroes arrived to see a waiting Xanza. He was perfectly calm in his cold way and didn't seem to have any idea of the Catalyst Crystal's existence. After doing some pre-battle talking about ideals and such, the battle began. The heroes held off using the Crystal, wanting Xanza to think he had a chance. They held off pretty good on their own, but they were nothing more than nuisances to Xanza. He even resisted the Infernape's Fighting-type moves. Halfway through the battle, the heroes activated the Crystal. Xanza was intrigued and just stared at it. Moments later, the light burned him and the space around them seemed to break like glass. The heroes gained more power from the Crystal and the true battle began. After a long & vicious fight, Xanza ended up fainting and the heroes got their victory. The heroes used the last of their remaining power to turn Xanza into stone.

Afterwards
Word got around that Xanza was no more, Xanza's followers quickly and quietly disbanded. The Fire-types were hailed as heroes by everyone and prosperity followed. The Catalyst Crystal was hidden in a very secret place by the heroes. Everything slowly turned back into normal. Many generations passed and the stories were starting to get vague. Eventually the whole thing turned into a vague myth and everything was forgotten. The Dark Trio lived on and became bitter. They caused mischief against anyone they pleased. Three thousand years passed and Helia was secretly plotting to bring Xanza back one day....
