## Biography

### Early Life

Pip was born in the Unova Region, where he lived until he was four. At that point, his parents decided to move to Sinnoh. At the age of 12, he received a Turtwig, whom he had named Curtis.

When he was 15, Pip encountered The Creation Trio. He was shown visions of the destruction of the universe. He ran away, only to find that his family had vanished.

At 17, with a team consisting of a Grotle, who had evolved from his Turtwig, Staraptor, and a Steelix, Pip left Sinnoh to go to Kalos, so that he could investigate effects of the war occuring in Kalos over 3,000 years ago.

### Life in Kalos

After moving there, Pip became well-known in the Kalos Pokémon Performances, but did not actually compete. (However, Ash never heard of him in his year there trying to win the Pokémon League.) However, he continued his research for almost two years. While there, he also researched the effects on neighboring regions.

Eventually, his he focused his attention on the effect on Supaki Town. He learned that, according to Lados's history, Supaki became a town of death and despair around 2,750 years ago, earning the name, "Lados's Graveyard." After months of research, Pip decided to move there.

After a year, he met Sparks, and decided to try to become the champion of the Royal League. He spent the next five years training, and during that time, met and befriended the Elite Four. Eventually, at the age of 25 he defeated Sparks and became Champion.
