According to Dialga, a catastrophe will soon destroy the world, and it's the fault of Team Rocket, who are attempting to steal the Jewel of Life, a powerful artifact. Ash, along with his friends Dawn, Brock, and their trusty Pokémon, arrive in the past, specifically in the Sinnoh region during the ancient era when the legendary Pokémon Arceus was still alive. Arceus, often referred to as the creator of the universe, is said to be the source of all life and creation in the Pokémon world. It's told that Arceus possessed a massive amount of life energy that radiated throughout the world, giving life to all the Pokémon and humans. However, when one of its creations, the human named Damos, betrayed Arceus by stealing the Jewel of Life, the ancient Pokémon was deeply hurt and subsequently went into hiding. Before disappearing, Arceus created Dialga as a powerful creation to maintain the balance of time. It set the Temporal Pokémon in place to protect the timeline by preventing any catastrophic events that may potentially harm it. However due to the interference of a temporal anomaly, Dialga arrives in the present day with a warning for Ash Ketchum. It informs him that this event occurred in the past and was the cause of Arceus's immense anger. The team's theft of the Jewel is merely an attempt to accelerate a catastrophic event by breaking the balance of time. With their mission clear, Ash and his friends travel back in time and meet their past selves, who are traveling in the Sinnoh region at the time.

As the trio explores the Sinnoh region, they encounter the past team, who plans to capture Arceus and gain control over it. However, with the intentions of using the Pokémon, they unknowingly set off the chain of catastrophic events that Arceus is judging. Damos, still in the past, manipulates people in the area to steal the Jewel, triggering Arceus's wrath. The team, along with their past selves and Uxie, team up to reverse the events that have led to the impending catastrophe. They embark on a perilous journey to stop Damos and recover the stolen Jewel of Life before it's too late.
