Tagg is a 20 year old Pokemon Trainer from a nondescript town near Viridian City in Kanto. A natural explorer, he happens to be one of the founding members of the PEFE and a fairly successful trainer, having been one for about 10 years of his life.

Background

Tagg was born in that very same town, and often spent his early years exploring the backwoods surrounding his home. It was on one of these very occasions that he nearly became a Froslass' new ice sculpture at the age of six, but managed to get away through an accidental use of his Aura powers, something he wouldn't truly discover until years later. Tagg also had very little friends growing up, leading him to become very withdrawn for the most part, except where science and Pokemon were concerned.

The Start of A Very Long Journey: Kanto and Johto

At the age of 10, Tagg ended up visiting Pallet Town in order to get a starter Pokemon from Professor Oak to begin his Pokemon journey. Said starter Pokemon turned out to be a Bulbasaur, and Tagg decided to go out and get all eight Kanto badges, succeeding in doing so and becoming a Champion at the age of ten. Soon afterwards, he decided to try his hand at the second half of the Indigo League, eschewing his Kanto team for a new one forged in Johto. During both instances, he also served as a junior researcher for both Oak and Professor Elm.

Orre

Sometime after Hoenn, Tagg decided to visit Orre for relatively undefined reasons, though it was likely because he wanted to explore. While visiting he ended up exploring the Under and getting trapped down there when Cipher took it over. It was there when he witnessed a Cipher Peon brutally murder a Trainer and his mons for attempting to oppose them, and tried to add Tagg to that last, but he and his teammates managed to escape. After managing to escape, he met Megg of the Kids Grid and assisted them in combating Cipher before escaping to give word to the outside with the help of Nett. At some indeterminate time after the first Cipher incident was resolved, he ended up battling and winning against the former Cipher Admin Miror B., causing him to swear revenge for being defeated by a kid.

And Then What?: Joining the PEFE

The next two years of Tagg's life were mostly spent exploring and wandering up and down Pokepan, but he couldn't help but feel that something was misssing. At the age of 16, on the sixth anniversary of his training career, he came to visit Professor Oak in an attempt to find a direction in his life. Professor Oak informed Tagg of the PEFE, and he got in contact with Tangent not long afterwards.
