Plot Elements

 * Kellyn enrolls as a student after expertly capturing a Pikachu.
 * Kellyn quickly makes friends with two of their classmates, Rhythmi who dreams of being an Operator, and Keith, a rival, who dreams of becoming a Top Ranger.
 * After Kellyn and Keith nearly discover what Mr. Kincaid, a teacher, is doing in the basement, Mr. Kincaid seals it off from all students.
 * Both Kellyn and Keith show strong potential as Rangers, and graduate with full honors after defeating two Tangrowth at their graduation ceremony. Kellyn stays in Almia, while Keith and Rhythmi go to Fiore as part of their training.
 * Kellyn's family moves into a nearby town known as Chicole Village, and the Kellyn goes to live with them.
 * During this time, an evil group emerges in Almia known as Team Dim Sun. Dim Sun uses machines called Miniremos and Gigaremos to control Pokémon for their own use.
 * Kellyn becomes an Area Ranger, helping out the people of Vientown, and receives a partner Pokémon by befriending it.
 * Kellyn receives their first major mission soon after: Patrolling a nearby cave. In this cave, strange Pokémon under mind control are found and rescued, with the source of their control being a (not known at the time) Gigaremo unit.
 * Kellyn comes back from Ranger HQ after talking about the Gigaremo, when a forest fire soon breaks out in Vien Forest. After stopping the fire with a Blastoise, Kellyn gains access to the town on the other side, Pueltown.
 * Kellyn's next big mission is to locate the leader of the Area Rangers-Barlow, who was last seen leaving to investigate disturbances on the volcanic isle of Boyleland.
 * After exploring Boyle Volcano, Kellyn captures two of Team Dim Sun's guards, who tell him that Barlow is on their large ship used to transport Pokémon.
 * Kellyn runs after the ship, and after finding Barlow, they confront the leader, Mr. Kincaid, who was a leader of Dim Sun.
 * Kincaid deploys a Drapion to deal with the Rangers, and is defeated.
 * Kincaid orders the ship to be submerged, which Kellyn prevents, and Kincaid flees.
 * Barlow steers the ship into the yard of the Ranger Academy, where the mission is declared a success.
 * Kellyn is promoted to the rank of Top Ranger and gains the use of the Fine Styler. His first mission is to help Sven, another Top Ranger, investigate a Dim Sun mining operation in the Chroma Ruins. They discover that Dim Sun is looking for Dark Crystals to power their Gigaremo and Miniremo units. They also find a hole where a large Shadow Crystal was once held, and a Diary written by the late Brighton Hall, the previous president of Altru Inc; the mining site is discovered to be the ruins of the site where Doyle Hall, the company's founder, first began prospecting for new energy sources.
 * While examining the Dark Crystal, the Rangers discover that the effects of these crystals can be nullified by shards of three gems known as the Tears of Princes.
 * Kellyn and Keith go on to separately collect the sources of these shards; the blue gem from Almia Castle, the red gem from Boyle Volcano, and the yellow gem from Hippowdon Temple.
 * Although Kellyn takes both the blue and red gems, Keith is captured by Dim Sun, which uses him to blackmail Kellyn into surrendering the yellow gem.
 * Meanwhile, Sven raids Dim Sun's undersea base, stealing plans for an "Incredible Machine". With the aid of Isaac, a former classmate of the player and Kincaid's unwitting protege, it is discovered that the plans are for Altru Inc.'s tower, which is actually a massive Gigaremo powered by the Shadow Crystal. With this revelation, it is realized that Altru Inc. is behind Team Dim Sun's activities.
 * Immediately after this realization, the Sinis Trio — three Dim Sun agents serving Blake Hall, Altru's president — attack the Ranger Union headquarters. They bribe Isaac into returning to save his sister.
 * After Kellyn and Keith defeat Blake's deputy Wheeler, the leaders of the Ranger Union plan an all out strike on Altru Tower, known as Operation Brighton. The two top rangers circle the headquarters, while Keith and Kellyn would charge the tower, find the Yellow gem, rescue Isaac, and destroy the barrier. After this is accomplished, Kellyn confronts Blake on the top of the tower, too late to prevent its full activation.
 * With the Shadow Crystal's power, Blake summons a Dusknoir from Hippowdon Temple, but Kellyn captures it and defeats Wheeler once more.
 * Pushing the Incredible Machine into the unsafe "Level Dark", Blake summons Darkrai, the Shadow Crystal's protector; driven mad by the Incredible Machine, Darkrai breaks free from Blake's control, consumes him and Wheeler in a Dark Void, and goes on a rampage.
 * Keith uses the power of the Tears of Princes linked with their Styler to capture Darkrai and save Blake, which turns the Shadow Crystal into the Luminous Crystal, ending the mission.
 * Professor Hastings arrives and reveals that Blake was born Wyatt Hall, and Brighton offered him to the Shadow Crystal and changed his name, a mistake Brighton came to regret when Blake drove him from Altru.
 * Remorseful for his actions, Blake surrenders to Hastings and is taken to face justice.
 * Peace returns to Almia and its inhabitants, and the characters enjoy a concert originally planned for Altru (played by the Go-Rock Quads) while Kellyn returns home to his family, while Darkrai circles the Luminous Crystal.
 * Kincaid reorganizes the remnants of Team Dim Sun under his own leadership.
 * Now dubbed Team Debonairs, the revived organization attempts to revert the Luminous Crystal back into the Shadow Crystal by removing the Tears of Princes from their positions around it.
 * With Darkrai's aid, Kincaid thwarts Team Debonairs, ends Kincaid's ambitions and ensures a peaceful future for all of Almia.
