Quick recap

Ash wins three more Sinnoh badges, Ghost, Steel and Ice, and Grotle evolves into Torterra. Dawn reaches the Wallace Cup final against a visiting May and wins. Team Galactic captures the three lake legendaries, Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf, and Cyrus uses the Red Chain to summon Dialga and Palkia at Spear Pillar and create a new world. Ash, Dawn, Brock and their allies free the legendaries, and Cyrus vanishes through the portal he opened. Paul is never far away, and their rivalry keeps growing. The season ends with the group heading for the last Gym town.
