Character Profiles: Loren Dal'mar Soth

"I really only spar. However if you would like to have some tea we can have an exchange of wits and great conversation."
                         -Loren Dal'Mar Soth

   Loren Dal'Mar Soth was born in Rustboro City in Western Hoenn. As a child he was quiet an attentive. His first ever pokemon was a Poochyena, who he named "Darkly".
They were both inseparable and trained together at the Pokemon Trainer's school. During one of his field trips he managed to catch his second pokemon, a Zigzagoon, he later named "Thomas". During his last year at the school Darkly evolved into a Mightyena.
At age 10 sadly misfortune struck his family, and he was sent away on a Pokemon journey. He was given pokemon egg and sent north to visit his grandparents at Goldenrod City. Along his journey in the Johto region his egg hatched into a Bagon.

Weeks before he finally arrived to his grandparents house, he had a rather odd incident with Clefaries. It was here that he was taken aboard one of their ships. He managed to escape and will not speak of it. Apparently he also freed an Unown during this ordeal which is named "Quest". Once safely there, he and his pokemon managed to capture a Furret and Growlithe as well. As he settled in with his grandparents in the outskirts of Goldenrod City, he pretty much kept to himself and his studies for a time. His pokemon journey seemed over, but was just on a minor hiatus. It wasn't until he met Gwanyin, another pokemon trainer who had happened to stop close by the area. His Machamp had located the first house he could find, but along the way Gwanyin broke his leg. His grandparents offered to take him in until he could better, and thought having a friend could help Loren get out of his shell. Soon Loren and Gwanyin were inseperable pals. Gwanyin's pokemon were a Blastoise, Venusaur, Machamp, and Vulpix. In his quest he had trained hard and became one of the toughest pokeman battlers to wander the Kanto and Johto regions. He did his best to bring his pokemon to their maximum potential. However is Vulpix was stubborn. Seeing how his Vulpix liked Loren's Growlithe, he decided to give him over. That was were Vulpix gave Growlithe the Firestone. Gwanyin had been trying to get his Vulpix to evolve, but it refused. Since now belonging to Loren, it gave the Firestone away. Gwanyain helped Loren learn to focus on battling, and they sparred rather well together. Eventually helping Loren to train his Bagon until it fully evolved.

   Within about a year both headed off together on their pokemon journey. This allowed Loren to gather information, as he decided it would be great to get first hand knowledge and accounts. Not everything was yet made available to everyone on the computers, so he imagined himself as a Pokemon Loremaster. Together they made their way around the Johto gyms and together managed to collect a number of badges that would grant them entry to the Indigo Plateau Conference.  Loren made it to the top 64, while Gwanyin made it to the top 32. After that they made there way to the Kanto region. There Loren picked up both the Boulder and Cascade badges. Since Gwanyin had already obtained the Indigo League badges, they headed into the Hoenn region. Here Loren obtained the Mind and Rain badges, but also obtained another Poochyena. As soon as Gwanyin had obtained all the badges they journeyed far north to Sinnoh. There Loren managed to obtain the Forest, Relic, and Icicle Badges. This is where he also captured Torterra, Bidoof, Pachirisu, Buizel, Patrat, Herdier, and Emolga. They decided to part ways, Gwanyin traveled on while Loren returned to Goldrod City.
