THIS IS MY STORY...

It all began when Joey took Gold to Professor Elm's lab and sees Totodile being stolen by Silver. Gold used Cyndaquil to try and stop him. He encountered a Masked Man at the Ilex Forest, and suffered a bitter defeat. At Ecruteak City, following a showdown with Silver, Gold finally learnt of the evil scheme of Team Rocket, and set off with Silver to the Lake of Rage, where they were overpowered by the Masked Man, and frozen at the bottom of the lake. Fortunately, the legendary beast Entei rescued them, and took them to the Whirl Islands, where they met Crystal. They also fight the silver flyer, Lugia.[break][break]

Afterwards, evidence suggested that the Masked Man could be a Gym Leader, and Oak thus sent Gold and Crystal to the Indigo Plateau where the 16 Gym Leaders of Kanto and Johto would take part an Exhibition Match. The Masked Man eventually causes havoc at the Indigo Plateau with Ho-oh and Lugia which he has captured, and forced the ball-maker Kurt to surrender his designs for the special GS-ball that could capture Celebi. Gold became enraged by how the Masked Man treated Pokemon as tools, and chased after him for another showdown. Gold gained the upper hand, and finally unveiled the Masked Man as the Mahogany Gym Leader, Pryce. However, Pryce used Pika and Chuchu as hostages to force Gold to surrender, and the boy had no choice but to watch his foe break into the voids of time.[break][break]

The Hatcher enters the voids of time together with his newly hatched Pichu, but Pryce trappes him within an ice mirror. He was eventually freed by the Rainbow and Silver Wings hidden on Yellow's straw, and together with Silver, Crystal, and the three legendary beasts, they gave chase to Pryce once again. Gold sent his companions away to deal with Pryce alone, and managed to free Celebi from its capture, who fulfilled Pryce's dreams and finally melted his ice-cold heart with an old song. Gold safely returned to the other Dex Holders with the help of Celebi, and went off to train with Red at Mt. Silver. Years after the Masked Man incident, on the fifth day of the Battle Frontier opening week, Gold arrived at the Battle Frontier with Crystal to assist in the combat against the armored man, Guile Hideout. Their true intention, however, was to revive the five petrified Dex Holders, Red, Green, Blue, Yellow and Silver, by wishing upon the phantom Pokemon, Jirachi.[break][break]

Gold disguised himself as Guile Hideout when he appeared at the Battle Tower, initially hoping to trick his way through the armored man's Pokemon and reach Jirachi. However, this plan quickly fell apart, and he resorted back to direct power struggle, where Exbo overwhelmed the armored man with the powerful Blast Burn inherited on Two Island from Brinca. Attempting to snatch Jirachi back from Guile Hideout, Gold, Crystal, Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald prepare to face off their foe. As the third stage of Prof. Oak's plan to reverse the petrifaction of Red, Green, Blue, Yellow and Silver, Gold and Crystal together brought along the metal rings of Brinca to pass on the ultimate attacks to the starters of Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, and Silver. It was Gold's words that made Emerald rethink his relationship with Pokemon, eventually allowing the boy to be honest with himself, and successfully channel his wish to Jirachi, restoring the five senior Dex Holders to life.[break][break]

Years after the events on the Sevii Islands, Team Rocket was once again resurrected in Johto, and incidents reminiscent of Team Rocket's past deeds were surfacing everywhere. Professor Oak received a holographic message from Lance warning them of the evil organization's current aim, the Alpha Pokemon Arceus, and requested a Pokedex Holder to meet him at the Pokeathlon Dome. This task was bestowed upon Gold, and the boy managed to conquer all 5 categories of events. He also met the Johto Elite 4 there, and they were attacked by Lance's Dragonite, who apparently went rampaging after it got separated from its trainer due to an ambush from the Four Generals. Gold later headed towards Ecruteak City, where he met Morty through the Kimono Girls, and was soon joined by Silver who wanted the Ecruteak Gym Leader to help him locate the Plates scattered across Johto.[break][break]

However, Arceus landed in Ecruteak at that moment and destroyed the Gym. Gold gave chase to it all the way to the Ruins of Alph, where he found an injured Lance. When Silver and Crystal later arrived at the scene, a synchrony between the Alpha Pokemon and Silver's 16 Plates sent them to the Sinjoh Ruins. The Four Generals quickly seized Arceus, and after forcing the Plates out of the trio, overwhelmed them with its Multi-type ability and also got it to create Dialga, Palkia and Giratina. Silver distracted the Generals by throwing himself out onto the Mystri Stage, and Gold and Crystal grabbed the chance to vaporize the dragon trio with the three starters' ultimate attacks. Unfortunately, the dragons materialized once more, and Lance appeared along with Giovanni and Pryce, bringing the revelation that Arceus acted on its will in an attempt to annihilate humans with the dragon trio. While the three men kept he dragons distracted, Gold strove to calm down Arceus. When he finally recognized his unwillingness to open up to Togetaro all along and finally managed to do so, he convinced Arceus of the trust between humans and Pokemon, and pacified the alpha Pokemon, stopping a crisis which would have destroyed both Johto and Sinnoh.[break][break]

Gold now travels to the war-torn region of Lyeant to continue his adventures and perhaps even meet new people and their Pokemon.
