The Legend of the Mergers

Prologue

Millennia ago, a great evil threatened to destroy the world. But, a few brave heroes were able to stand together with their pokemon and defeat the evil with their powers. They then decided to split their powers, only keeping half with themselves. This half would be hereditary, going to the first-born child of each hero. The other half was stored in several amulets, one for each of the heroes, in addition to one amulet for the great evil and his generals.

This story has been told for many years. It has been told from parent to child longer than memory can dictate. No one even remembers if it is true anymore. Rumor has it that Professor Oak is studying. But, as long as I have my way, no one will be finding out this story's truth.

Who am I, you ask? I'm Archie, leader of Team Aqua. Why do I care? One of my ancestors happened to be one of the great heroes. And I happen to be very close to finding my amulet, the amulet of Water.
