>>42098328>So tell us more about this assistant programmer guy? He wasn't very interested in Pokemon or Pokemon battling but the best technical institute in the region also doubled as a trainer's academy, meaning classes on how to train and battle as well as raise and care for Pokemon were mandatory electives.
Naturally talented at battling, he was able to hold his own without investing much of his time or effort into practicing. His Porygons weren't much more to him than tools, but they slowly grew on him.
After getting involved with the wrong crowd, he found himself facing expulsion from the academy. His impending expulsion would mean he would be unable to finish his technical course, meaning he would be forced to return his Pokemon back to the academy that lent them to him.
Having actually become attached to his Porygons (and to the other members of his team), he fled the academy with the other members of that group and ultimately formed the groundwork for the region's villain team.
As an admin of the villain team, he uses his programming prowess to hack into the PC system and steal Pokemon from unprotected users, selling the Pokemon he steals to other villainous organizations in other regions. The region he's from puts heavy emphasis on competitive battling, so a lot of the Pokemon he steals can be very powerful in the right hands.
>is it really a good idea to give a corrupted living program to a student?Probably not, but I wanted an excuse to give one of my characters a Porygon-Z and a Porygon2 because they form an interesting core.
