This video tells us the story of an ancient tea masterwho spent his life perfecting the tea ceremony. His exacting standards earned him a bad reputation over the years, so much so that eventually no-one wanted to keep him company. He died in solitude, leaving only his tea pot as a memento.

After years out of circulation, sitting at the back of a warehouse, the master's tea pot spontaneously awoke and transformed: it was now a real Pokémon!
