History: Vern’s family run the Tubeline Bridge that allows travel between Iccirus City and Opelucid City, and as such, is extremely stable financially, having a good hold on the business in both areas.
Vern is an only child, and was mostly left to his own devices when growing up, and so never really saw much of his parents. Due to his upbringing basically consisting of being periodically showered with money, he never really grew up, and is stuck in a state of perpetual adult childishness.
He left on his Pokemon Journey sometime after befriending a Deino that had become separated from its herd outside of Victory Road in a rare moment of true kindness. Since then, he carved a name out for himself, becoming a shockingly competent trainer despite his immaturity.
Why He deserves to be an Elite Eight: Despite everything, he is an extremely capable trainer, with extremely powerful and capable Pokemon. He has been all over the world via his ‘connections’, and is familiar with most regions of the Pokemon World.
