>both grew up in Floccesy Town and embarked on their Pokemon journey together
>both are pretty cocky and seek to grow stronger without reason as trainers
>Alder actually earns quite a name for himself across Unova, but Ghetsis is always lagging behind
>somewhere down the line, Ghetsis, tired of playing second fiddle, takes his desire for strength too far, quits his Pokemon journey, and forms Team Plasma
>Alder, seeing the folly in his ways, parts with Ghetsis acrimoniously
>because of his talent, he is invited to join the Elite Four, eventually becoming Champion
>seeing Cheren in BW and his brash pursuit of strength reminds Alder a lot of Ghetsis and he worries for the boy
