He was once a pokémon hunter, stealing pokémon he needed for a job or capturing rarer pokémon to sell (for trainers or for parts), treating them like nothing.......... but that was his previous life, one he chooses to never revisit. When he first heard about Miryus he decided that it was the perfect opportunity to turn over a new leaf, deciding to leave the darkness of his past and learn about the pokémon he was once trying to hunt, in an attempt to make-up for the wrongs he has committed. He keeps his hunting days a secret and began studying everything he could about pokémon, finding an interest in the specifics of pokémon behaviour, why pokémon acted in different ways. By the time everyone was settled in Miryus he had a firm grasp of almost every pokémon with only a few eluding him like the mysteries of Mew but he hoped that with some luck he could discover more about the mysterious pokémon in Miryus. Upon arriving in Miryus his hard work, determination and natural act of being a professor was quickly recognised. No one knows who he formerly was and as long as his secret remains hidden he will continue being a highly respected professor of the Miryus region. All that’s left of his hunting’s days is his Lucario who with his strength, quickness and ability of tapping into aura energy to be able to track and predicted pokémon movement was what made him a successful hunter.
