Rainbow Stones

The Rainbow Stones
Legend has it that the Rainbow Stones were the sight of what used to be called “Gods Fall”. Legend has it that the Pokemon Arceus did battle long long ago with the pokemon of Time and Space, Dialga and Palkia. In their battle Arceus was struck down and crashing into a Crystal Mountain.

Legends sometimes are real, when Arceus fell to earth he crashed into a mountain made of Quartz splitting it into thousands of shards. Arceus was never seen from again but his plates were separated from him becoming lodged under the quartz their energy resonating to this very day. This resonating energy has a special effect on both the stones themselves and the pokemon in this area. The quartz over the thousand years since “God Fall” has absorbed and started emanating both the energy in the plates and the colors themselves. For this reason the stones have been called “Rainbow Stones” and have become a tourist attraction and a Natural Wonder of the World on everyone's list.

For the Pokemon of the area these stones present a different story, the energies emitted from these stones have begun recently causing mutations in the pokemon who live there. These mutated pokemon are usually different either in color and/or type to other pokemon of the same species. The scientists in the area have taken to calling these Pokemon “Delta Species”.
