Koro while not being part of the J-team does seam to be where they are fairly often. He has recent taken to learning to use the family talent of Obscura, from the newest member of his team, Igor the Sableye.

Background

Koro recieved his first Pokémon on his fifth birthday as a gift and a pet, a Smeargle puppy who had just hatched from its egg, whom he named Bach. Alongside the Smeargle puppy, he recieved an ocarina. He had such a love for music, performance, and Bach. For some reason, he had a much greater love for music than the normal Smeargle's love of art. They bonded almost instantly. They were happy for three years, learning music and acrobatics, until a Team Rocket attack ended in his parent's death. In his grief, Koro ran away rather than going to an orphanage.

After about two days of performing with Bach for meals and money they ended up in a forest outside of Cerulean City, in which they ran into Darkrai while it was still wandering. Koro was terrified by Darkrai's menacing form, noticing that Bach got between Koro and the Nightmare Pokémon, in retaliation Darkrai only said, "Fear not young one, I mean you no harm. I simply sensed your grief, and thought might want need another friend, other than just your loyal companion." Now that Koro could see that Darkrai wasn't going to hurt him, he wasn't afraid anymore. They played together until nightfall when Darkrai fled and left Koro with only memories of a black knight Pokémon and a phrase in his heart that left nothing but compassion, "I thought you might need a friend." After that he continued travelling and recruiting new companions, all the while never capturing one by force, and while each of his companions does have a Ball he doesn't require them to go in unless they absolutely want.

Now after twelve years of travle he is the founder and ring master of the Rolling Circus of Pokémon a travelling performance troupe of Pokémon and he has learned the language of Pokémon after much tutoring from his togepi Omelet.
