"A new feature introduced in Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire is Primal/Primal/Primeval Pokémon. These Pokémon seem to work in a similar manner to Mega Evolution through a process called Primal Reversion, and sends the Pokémon back to their Primal state. Full details on this feature are not known."

The lore I quoted was from the official site; Serebii is a fan site. Besides, Serebii seems to be outdated about Primal Reversion in that quote, since they have already been confirmed to be called Primal Pokémon, not Primeval, which Serebii still lists as a possible name for them.
Quote:
And no, I was saying they could give something to Black or White Kyruem just to do a primal reversion, meaning it goes back to how it was in the past. This would bring the complete dragon.
I think nature's energy was the power that Arceus gave them and then when they got out of control, the people made something to lock their power away.

All right, then I'll stick to my theory.

Bulbapedia mentioned that the orbs were used to lock the power of the legends but that may be a fan theory. Wouldn't be surprised if true.

The actual legend is as follows:
Quote:
It happened long, long ago...
The world was wracked by a ferocious clash between the Pokémon of the land and the Pokémon of the sea...
The Pokémon of the land raised mountains and created continents...
The Pokémon of the sea raised huge waves and carved out oceans...
Their fierce duel raged without end.
The world was engulfed in massive infernos and vicious storms.
The Blue Orb and the Red Orb brought an end to the calamity.
Light poured from the two Orbs and becalmed the enraged adversaries.
The pair, made docile, dove deep into the sea where eventually they disappeared...

It doesn't directly state that the powers of Groudon and Kyogre were locked within the Orbs. I'm pretty sure that part is actually fanon as you said, but in my opinion it is quite reasonable.
We know the Orbs stopped Groudon and Kyogre from fighting, and we also know that they awakened them many years later, when they were stolen and separated. Would it be unreasonable to think that these things happened because the Orbs absorbed their power (which would have made them unable to keep fighting) and then released it when they were brought close to the Pokémon thousands of years later (which would have awakened them)?

I would like to point out something really quick. But before I do, Bulbapedia does say it is unrelated, but I do not think it is 100% unrelated.
There was a Primal Dialga in Mystery Dungeon: Time and Darkness. And it follows similar to what we know about Primal Groudon and Kyogre. It is said Primal Dialga came to be when it lost control of its power. Similar to how Groudon and Kyogre were in a berserker state. So, I am going to take back what I said about Primal being in the past, because it might not be so. But I will keep it in mind. (Also not that the coloring follows the same pattern. Primal Dialga keeps the original state, but the colors change similar to Primal Groudon and Kyogre.)

I do not remember the exact story, but I definitely remember that in Dialga's case it was Darkrai's doing: Darkrai did something to corrupt Dialga, and Dialga was losing its reason. Groudon and Kyogre' transformation happened because they absorbed natural energy from the world, which as far as I know simply made them more powerful. So I must disagree - I think that they are unrelated, that they are different processes and that the Pokémon just happen to share names.
