Plot




A legend is foretold that the one who unifies all the 17 kingdoms of the Ransei Region (ランセ地方 Ranse-chihō?), will have a chance to encounter the Legendary Pokémon, Arceus, who created the Ransei Region. Warriors and Warlords all over the region sought to fullfill the foretold legend, thus bringing Ransei's peacful era to an end in battles.
The game initiates off in the Aurora (ハジメ Hajime) kingdom, where the player dwells, as the player is proclaimed as the new Warlord of Aurora. The nearby kingdom of Ignis (カエン Kaen) sends warriors to ambush Aurora, but falls in defeat against the player and Oichi. Oichi explains to the player that all of the other kingdoms of Ransei had become aggressive and hostile towards one other, in their own destiny of fulfilling the Ransei Legend. This initiates the player's harrowing journey of unifying other nations, hoping to restore peace upon Ransei.
After conquering the kingdom of Ignis (カエン Kaen), Greenleaf (アオバ Aoba), and Fountaine (イズミ Izumi), Oichi explains that Nobunaga, who dwells at the northern part of Ransei, is the main threat of the Ransei Region. After conquering the kingdom of Violight (シデン Shiden), Chrysalia (サナギ Sanagi), and Pugilis (コブシ Kobushi?), Oichi explains that Nobunaga's ambition is to fulfill the Ransei Legend and use Arceus's power to demolish Ransei. After conquering the two kingdoms of Terrera (ダイチ Daichi), and Illusio (ゲンム Genmu), Oichi hosts a celebration of Shingen and Kenshin's recruitment to the player's army. During the celebration, the player is confronted by Nobunaga, who holds the kingdoms of Avia (ツバサ Tsubasa), Cragspur (キガン Kigan), Yaksha (ヤシャ Yasha), Viperia (ドクガ Dokuga), Valora (フクシ Fukushi), Nixtorm (フブキ Fubuki), and Spectra (ミタマ Mitama) under his command. Nobunaga informs the player and Oichi of their foolishness of opposing him and returns to his own kingdom of Dragnor (リュウ Ryu).
Finally reaching to the Dragnor kingdom, Oichi and the player is confronted by Ranmaru, Nobunaga's servant, as Ranmaru pleads to Oichi that Oichi shouldn't opposed Nobunaga, Oichi's older brother. Despite sharing the same 'flesh and blood', Nobunaga, partnered with Zekrom, plans to annihilate Oichi, challenging Oichi and the player to a battle. After defeating Nobunaga and his army, the player discovers Infinity Tower, where Arceus appears. After linking with Arceus, the player is confronted again with Nobunaga, now partnered with a black Rayquaza, along with Mitsuhide, Nō (ノウヒメ Nouhime), Ieyasu, Ranmaru, Hideyoshi into a final battle. After losing to the player and Oichi once more, Nobunaga reveals his true intentions, to bring peace to Ransei through the use of Arceus.
