He read about all sorts of thing. From the little everyday things like devices and electronics, pokemon and battles to the great wonders of the world. How things work and why thing are the way they are. To him, it was all just so fascinating and beautiful. It just made him want to go out there himself and see the world with his own 2 eyes. Discover for himself what makes the world tick. However his body was small and frail, and often people told him he could never do the things he wanted to do. But he never gave up. He Learned everything he could about pokemon and memorized everything he needed to survive. Now all that is left, is to find himself a loyal partner to protect him on his eagerly awaited journey.
