Name: Von Nero
Age: 25
Gender: Male
Trainer Type: R&D Field Operator
Hometown: Cinnabar Island
Appearance:
Behind those black shades he usually wears, are the haunting far away stare of light brown orbs. One could only speculate the complexity of thoughts behind the eerie gloss of those amber hues. His preferred form of appearance is usually to be well dressed in formal designer suits and slicked back hair when he decides to take business matters into cities. One could think of him as a corporate entity of some kind, which is somewhat close to the truth.
When his business requires him to travel, he plans his routes accordingly and takes the gear and supplies required to reach his destination. Depending on the obstacles in the way, be it mountains, wetlands, woodlands, caverns and so on, he makes sure to take the equipment necessary to accomplish the quest. He stands at 6'0'' and weights about 180 lbs.
He has numerous scars from his travels, deep scratches and cuts, and a missing pinky on his left hand from a razor sharp leaf used from a pokemon battle move from his pre-teen years as a novice trainer. A hard lesson learned to stay out of the way from battling pokemon.
Personality: Even though he likes to stay professional when he's around people of interest, he is still a curious adventurer at heart. Von enjoys the thrill of investigating and discovering hidden knowledge that is forbidden to be found by the populace. Only does the greatest scientific breakthroughs manifest when secrets are sought after.
He usually likes to take samples of mysterious substances, after testing for deadly toxins of course, and photographic evidence of rare phenomena that occur in a world full of mystery.
Because he is in constant pursuit of knowledge, he seeks out other adventurers and likes to log anything out of the ordinary that happened to them in their personal quest to seek out and investigate anything worth finding.

Present..
Goals: Besides learning the truth behind the incident that happened on that island, his job is to seek out and collect as much information on rare pokemon and explore uncharted areas in the world and come back with samples, or if possible, capture rare species.
The R&D company he works for requires him to take multiple samples of different pokemon he encounters for their research. They claim they use the material to produce vaccinations and medicine to cure pokemon, and human, of the many viruses and diseases that plague the planets inhabitants. If required, he would even sneak and steal valuable information that would be beneficial to this cause.

History:
Parents and Education..
Von Nero was born on Cinnabar Island where his father and mother worked on. From what he was told, his father, a scientist, worked in a R&D department on a remote island close to Cinnabar, and his mother was his fathers assistant. His parents were never home, and were always working on a secret project that occupied most of their days and sometimes even through the night.
Von was home schooled by a private tutor who was contracted to teach Von advanced mathematics and science related sessions all through his teen years. As Von got older, the lessons got more complex and hands on. They began to work on the subject of biological sciences and cloning research, along with the paranormal fields of psychic abilities. Von demonstrated rare occurrences of this rare gift, especially when it came to communicating with psychic pokemon that were sometimes brought to the island for 'research'.
When he was not being tutored, Von had a small Abra that he managed to sneak away from the list of 'subjects' that were brought for research. Von and several other kids on the island would battle their pokemon on the beaches. In one instance, he got a little to close to the battle and had his pinky finger sliced off his hand from a Bulbasaur the other trainer was using. When the 'authorities' found out, they confiscated his Abra. Von was devastated from the event.

Incident..
At the age of 19, Von managed to complete his years of tutoring and managed to earn an apprenticeship in R&D on New Island, where his mother and father worked. Having only access to the upper levels, his parents worked in the deepest levels of the island that required the highest levels of clearance. Only 1% of the Islands scientific staff had access to these lower levels of the facility. His parents never spoke a word about their workings.
One fateful day, a rumbling, what felt like an earthquake, shook the facility and the floor began to collapse underneath him. Unable to escape because of the shifting floor and destroyed elevators, and people screaming and dying in bloody pulps as heavy debris fell on them, he was thrown off his feet and hit his head up against the corner of a wall. Slipping into unconsciousness, the last thing he saw was the floating form of a entity rising from the cracked center of the facility. Its eyes were glowing a psychic blue and it's body producing a 'barrier' of some kind. It slowly turned to evaluate the destruction and death happening all around. It's glowing eyes seem to have set on Von for a moment, and a head pounding voice was heard in his head.."why". It levitated through the ceiling and eventually vanished into the thundering night sky. The building collapsing into rubble all around him, a table fell over his body as the remainder of the building collapsed on top of him.

The building collapsing into rubble all around him, a table fell over his body as the remainder of the building collapsed on top of him.
Aftermath..
Days after the incident, Von's body was found under the rubble, but fortunately his body was protected by a steel door that had fallen over him but wedged itself in a way that the debris failed to crush Von like the rest of his colleagues. Awaking in the hospital after the concussion, a week after the collapse of the mansion, he found himself laying on the bed with multiple broken bones and a severe headache. At first, no one wanted to explain to him what happened, all they told him was that the mansion collapsed from a 8.0 natural earthquake, and that his parents were killed and their bodies never recovered.
They failed to understand, maybe on purpose, of what Von saw that day. They blamed it on concussive hallucination, but Von clearly remembers the glowing eyes and.. that voice in his head. A voice that seemed to echo.. "why". When he began to ask questions, the doctors immediately administered strong pain killers to 'ease his pain'.. and most likely his questions also. When he was approved for release after his bones and wounds were healed, he left without any answers and forbidden to set foot on the island.

Present..
Eventually, Von was contracted by a scientific R&D department (can't make up name yet) to be their field operator. He still seeks answers to the events that transpired that day that took so many lives, including his parents, and almost took his. His dreams are haunted by memories of the screaming cries of those who perished that day, and those glowing blue eyes that stood out in the flares of the burning mansion as it came down.
The R&D department now asks him to explore new areas of interest, but the dangers and risks are even higher now. They have arranged for him to meet a professor in Newbark Town to provide him with a pokemon for protection and companionship. Von accepts and begins his quest in this uncharted area of his profession.
