Growing up in Spikemuth, Zazz admired Team Yell’s aesthetic and rebellious attitude. Determined to follow their punky style, Zazz learned human language from a Meowth and rallied his friends to join Team Yell. However, they soon figured out that Team Yell’s lifestyle wasn’t what they imagined. Deciding it wasn’t for them, Zazz and his Pokémon friends left Spikemuth, and through their journeys around the world they realized they love battling instead. Now, they’ve made their way to the PAX Pokémon League, eager to challenge trainers and Pokémon!
