Pokemon Mythology: Black Chapter, section 18. When the hero turns darkness to light and his heart becomes one with Pokemon, at that moment Zekrom will descend and lend the hero his power.
And then, from the White Chapter, but also section 18. When the hero turns darkness to light and his heart becomes one with Pokemon, at that moment Reshiram will descend and lend the hero his power.
The reason for these similar but differing mythos is because the legend of these two dragons goes back even further than their chapters in the Black and White chapters. You see, these two dragons were once one in the same - a single, powerful Dragon Pokemon that was used by twin brothers, princes that created the Unova region with this Pokemon.
But as time passed, the two brothers began to bicker and squabble. One believed in leading with nothing but truth, his mind over his heart. The other, ideals - heart over mind. Neither could come to a compromise, and their fighting led to the Pokemon splitting, Reshiram becoming the dragon of Truth, and Zekrom, the dragon of Ideals.
The brothers' battle turned in to a battle between Reshiram and Zekrom, but being two of the same they were equally matched and their power only sought to destroy the very land the brothers had created. They set aside their differences and ended the fight.
Unfortunately their sons resumed it, and the dragons were forced to tear apart the land they had helped create. They vanished afterwards, sealing themselves away to await the day when those searching strongly for truth or ideals would come to them to be tested as great heroes worthy of wielding such power.
