Basic History

While traveling towards Unova, Dune had heard rumors that a large Tyranitar in the region was guarding the entrance to an ancient underground city. Dune followed these rumors and eventually found and caught the odd Tyranitar, whom he named Ajax, only to find that the only thing he was guarding was a small cave with some random human baubles in the back. Ajax is strangely eloquent for a Tyranitar, and sometimes waxes philosophical at inappropriate times. He has taught himself to read over the course of his adventures with Dune, and is attempting to teach Rill and Selene as well. While his mother is mostly a mystery to him, he was raised by his biological father, an Aggron. Has a mysterious grudge against certain Dragon-Types.

Ajax is very self-conscious about how Tyranitar are usual viewed as territorial brutes, and wishes to change that, either through becoming the most polite, cultured Pokémon he can be, or punishing those who perpetuate the stereotype. In particular, he felt wounded when Straw fainted at the sight of him.
