Chapter 509: Arceus Creation Genesis (6k)

~10 min read 1,892 words

When the video was released, Paldea had already entered the middle of the night.

However, Sinnoh, which spans more than half the earth, was already 7:00 AM sharp at this time.

Even in winter, the sun had already risen at this time, bringing a little warmth to the Sinnoh region, which was extremely cold due to the snow-capped mountains.

Sinnoh region, Sandgem Town.

A small sandy town adjacent to the sea, and also the place where the starting wind first blew.

The most prestigious professor in the entire region, Professor Rowan's research institute, is located here, cultivating excellent "first partners" for reserve trainers all over Sinnoh.

As usual, the meticulous Professor Rowan sat outside the breeding house of the research institute, quietly observing the researchers recording the physical data of Pokémon through a layer of thick glass.

The honest Turtwig showed an honest smile, letting people gently stroke its soft abdomen;

The lively Chimchar reached out generously, but suddenly turned around after the researcher approached, scaring people with its lit tail;

Only the Piplups didn't have any movements at all, silently looking at other Pokémon with clear and clean eyes.

Seeing this, Professor Rowan's serious expression eased slightly, and he even showed a little smile.

These newborn Pokémon will definitely meet their destined trainers and grow to a degree that makes him look at them with new eyes.

(Professor Rowan, handsome old man)

Just when he was thinking this, a young researcher suddenly walked past him.

It was originally just an ordinary little thing, but Professor Rowan noticed that his gaze was focused on the Rotom Phone in his hand.

At the same time, a man's voice soon appeared.

"We all know that Arceus is the supreme god who created this world and has been worshipped by ancient Sinnoh people forever."

"However... very few people know how it created the world and nurtured life."

Two short sentences immediately aroused Professor Rowan's attention.

This is... ancient Sinnoh history?

Every regional professor has their own field of expertise.

For example, Professor Oak, who is highly respected in Kanto, mainly studies the relationship between Pokémon and humans.

There are four professors in the Sinnoh region, namely the footprint professor who studies Pokémon footprints, Professor Charon who studies the Distortion World, himself who studies Pokémon evolution, and Professor Carolina who specializes in mythological history.

Of course, he is not an expert in this part of the content, but he at least knows the general idea.

Therefore, his attention was immediately attracted by the playing video, so he took the initiative to stop the young researcher who brushed past him.

"Professor, is there anything?"

The young researcher paused the video and looked at Professor Rowan with confusion in his eyes.

Although he knew that Professor Rowan was actually a very easy-to-talk-to old man, his serious appearance and meticulous personality still made him subconsciously nervous.

"What is the video you were playing just now?"

"Ah? Oh..."

The young researcher was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, placing the phone screen horizontally in front of Professor Rowan.

"It's Teacher Yu's video, I think what he said is quite interesting."

"Teacher Yu?"

Professor Rowan frowned imperceptibly.

Haven't heard of this name, if a researcher who studies history is a little famous, he should know it...

But the voice is indeed a bit familiar, maybe he should have seen it before?

"It's an interesting battle streamer on PokéTV, occasionally doing some interesting videos when not doing his proper job."

Speaking of "Teacher Yu", this young researcher immediately became energetic. After noticing Professor Rowan's expression, he hesitated for a moment and finally took the initiative to use the legendary "Anli" method.

"Professor, should I forward Teacher Yu's video to your navigator?"

"Okay."

Professor Rowan nodded and didn't refuse.

After forwarding the video, the researcher soon left.

And Professor Rowan also soon clicked on the video and began to watch it.

After the atmospheric opening, the slightly young male voice in the video soon threw out the first question—

That is the content he just heard.

"How did Arceus create this world?"

Regarding this question, in fact, Sinnoh mythologists have also been confused.

But one point is obvious—

If humans are also Arceus's creations, then obviously their appearance must have happened after Arceus's creation of the world.

That's why no relevant murals or text records could be left.

And now, a young man who sounds like he is only 20 years old, put forward his own insights for the first time.

"Declaration in advance, the following content has no empirical evidence, it is just Teacher Yu's own guess, if there are errors, I hope you can point them out."

After skillfully stacking a layer of armor, the man's voice gradually became serious.

"Before the universe and heaven and earth were formed, darkness shrouded the boundless empty chaos."

"Here there is no life, nor death, only eternal silence."

"Until one day, the first egg in the world that nurtured life was born in chaos, and the first creature that broke out of the shell was the creator god Arceus we are familiar with."

"After swallowing all the chaos, Arceus gained the power of creation and began to bring order to the world."

Hearing this, Professor Rowan couldn't help but smile.

Really big brain hole, this child.

To become a mythologist, the most important thing is the rigor when drawing conclusions.

Content that has no evidence and is all made up by brain supplementation might only be used as a topic after tea and dinner to make people laugh?

However, it is indeed quite interesting.

With such an idea, Professor Rowan continued to listen.

"To create this world, Arceus used a total of seven days."

"On the first day, chaos was divided, order was born from the initial, and the remaining fragments turned into nineteen slates."

"The power given to the slates was originally held by the giants who were the incarnation of chaos, but they were all easily defeated by Arceus."

Professor Rowan was stunned and subconsciously muttered to himself:

"It should be eighteen slates, is there a slip of the tongue here?"

The creation slates left by Arceus do exist and have been discovered in ruins all over the place.

But according to the speculation of mythologists, there should be eighteen slates in total, corresponding to eighteen basic attributes.

Regarding this question, Professor Rowan didn't care too much and continued to watch.

Although it is not guaranteed to be true, this kind of video is unexpectedly interesting.

No wonder the account called "Group Blue Feather" has so many fans.

Soon, the video continued to scroll.

"After gaining the slates, Arceus's power increased greatly. Therefore, facing the pitch-black universe, it blurted out—"

"Let there be light!"

"Thus, the first ray of light in the world was born, the vast universe appeared from the light, and from then on, light was called day, and darkness was called night."

"Light and dark alternate, day and night change, forming the prototype of time and space."

"The God of Time Dialga and the God of Space Palkia were born at the same time, which was the first creation of the creator god Arceus."

"However, where there is light, there is shadow. Establishing a new order also means that the old order is broken."

"Outside the universe, another time and space formed a Distortion World completely opposite to reality, and distorted matter nurtured Giratina, who represents destruction."

"Because of its terrifying destructiveness to the real world, Arceus exiled it, and it will never be allowed to step into the real world."

Hearing this, Professor Rowan raised his eyebrows.

Although it sounds a bit outrageous, it seems inexplicably reasonable...

Moreover, because it lives in the Distortion World, the existence of Giratina is rarely mentioned even in ancient murals.

Someone who can know its real name obviously knows Sinnoh history quite well.

Could it really be a local researcher forgotten by himself?

With confusion, Professor Rowan continued to watch.

As a result, the content after that had basically nothing to do with Sinnoh legends.

"On the second day, facing the vast starry sea, Arceus waved its Multitype, easily dividing matter by light and heavy, and invisible floating objects formed the firmament, which is heaven."

"The sky's descendant Rayquaza was born from the clouds, and from then on, it took on the responsibility of guarding the firmament."

"On the third day, Arceus gathered flowing objects with great power, and where the water flows together is the ocean."

"Magma was washed by flowing water, forming mountains and continents. Seeing this, Arceus sprinkled eggshell fragments, making green grass, shrubs, and forests grow on the ground."

"Kyogre and Groudon were born one after another. They fought endlessly to expand their respective territories, causing the climate to change greatly, and the existence in the sky also cast its gaze to the ground."

"This protracted battle was finally quelled by Rayquaza, and the world returned to order."

"And among the treetops, Celebi was born quietly, and the trees it inhabited could bear fruits full of life energy from then on."

Hearing this, Professor Rowan's expression was a bit complicated.

Is this still Sinnoh history? How come even the three gods from Hoenn came to guest star?

Celebi rarely appears in front of humans. It is said that Professor Oak saw them when he was young. Besides that, there are almost no sighting records.

It belongs to the cold among the cold.

Knowing even the existence of this Pokémon, obviously, the person who made this video has an extraordinary understanding of legendary Pokémon.

And...

He seems to be really interpreting the myths of various regions from a brand new perspective.

Because the historical myths of various regions basically had no connection before, they basically never thought of connecting all these contents together.

Just the point of integrating the legends of various regions for the first time is enough to open up brand new thinking.

While Professor Rowan was thinking, the man's voice appeared again.

"On the fourth day, light and dark formed a boundary, and light gathered on the planet, dispelling the endless darkness."

"Arceus used the size of the planet as a boundary, letting the big ones manage the day and the small ones manage the night, forming the alternation of sun and moon and the rotation of the four seasons."

"Solgaleo and Lunala were born from the stars, and the dispelled darkness gathered into one, forming the fierce beast Necrozma that devours light."

If the previous content, Professor Rowan at least knew the general idea, then the three names mentioned here completely involved his knowledge blind spot.

According to the style of the video, he could only tentatively infer that it was a legendary Pokémon from some region.

As for whether it was content made up by the video creator himself...

Judging from the legendary Pokémon mentioned along the way, the possibility should not be great.

It's just...

Even he, a regional professor, doesn't know the legendary existence, so how did he know it?

With such curiosity, Professor Rowan's gaze continued to look at the phone.

"On the fifth day, the fragments previously sprinkled by Arceus were washed by flowing water, and a part entered the ocean, and the first life in the world was born. It is said that it is the legendary Mew."
