This week, the group discovers the music machine in the Stone Tower, unaware it will be key to saving the world!

I moved the scene with Dialga and Palkia to the start of this part because I felt it would make more sense, as well as making the story flow better. As it was, it felt like an unexpected cutaway.

I also elaborated on why Dialga and Palkia were fighting, with Palkia now having a reason to cross into the human world. Little do either Legendary know, Ash is the pure human that saves the world.

I decided to elaborate on the group's backstory a little--in this Pokeworld, both boys have living sets of grandparents (Ash's grandparents are living on both sides, Brock has living grandparents on both sides, and living great grandparents on Flint's side) The Grandma Tarina refers to is Brock's paternal grandmother.

Before Brock met Ash and Misty in this Pokeworld (since Flint and Lola had a loving relationship to start with), he was active in the school concert band; starting on trombone before switching to euphonium in preparation for switching to tuba. But he eventually decided to stick with euphonium all through high school, doubling on trombone. This is why Brock is excited when he sees the disc with "The Blue Bells of Kanto"--he has played that song on both his brass instruments before, during his school band years.

The music machine's rendition of "The Blue Bells of Kanto" goes like this
Its rendition of "Funiculi, Funicula" goes like this

Next time, things in the human world begin to go awry...
