Purah, the Ancient Eccentric Genius!

Purah is more than meets the eye! Though they look young, experimentation with an anti-aging Rune caused them to become younger. Whilst studying these ancient runes, Purah discovered the properties some runic Pokémon possess. After many years of studying in the Hateno Ancient Tech Lab, Purah decided to put these Pokémon to the test, and where better than at PAX?

Concorde, the Supersonic Pilot!

Concorde grew up in Fortree City and idolised the local gym leader, Winona. Her command of flying Pokémon was second to none. Living amongst the trees had given Concorde a sixth sense about wind currents, which had served him well when he took up a job as a freight pilot. His loyal birds guided him all over the world, no one could better his delivery speeds. The sky was his highway. The clouds are his laneways. The winds his fuel. In time, he became known as the Supersonic Pilot.

Now Concorde comes to serve at the PAX Pokémon League. The time has come to hang up his wings. And should all go well, perhaps he could even fulfil his dream of taking over the Fortree gym when Winona retires. Will you be able to break the sound barrier, or will you be left in his jetstream?

Carly, the Crustacean Carcinologist!
