Tagg is a 21 year old Pokemon Trainer (19 at the start of the RP) 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 11 years of his life.
Contents
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 Tagg also had very little friends growing up, leading him to become very withdrawn for the most part, except where science and Pokemon were concerned.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 Professor Oak and Elm.
Exploring Hoenn
When Tagg was 13 years old, he decided to try his hand at the Hoenn League. Coincidentally, his arrival in the region coincided with Team Aqua and Magma's attempts to capture Kyogre and Groudon.
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 list, 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. Sometime later he met up with Silent and Tracer at the old PEFE HQ, and together with Tangent the PEFE was forged.
The first couple months were spent doing research on various species either alone or in a group. However, it was one incident that truly changed their destinies. While doing research on the Swablu and Altaria populations of central Hoenn, Tagg, Silent, and Tracer were attacked by a group of firearm wielding poachers. Afterwards, upon examining a truck that the poachers were operating from, the trio of researchers found a rather unique symbol that they hadn't seen before. Around Christmas of that year Tangent figured out the origins of the symbol, that it belonged to a corporation known as Pokefutures Inc. operating out of the Angela region.
A few months afterwards, the PEFE Founders staged a raid on the main Pokefutures HQ in order to reveal their corrupt activities to the world, with Tagg's job being to make sure that the media got word of what was going on. Due to taking refuge in a Kantonese embassy, Tagg avoided getting arrested like the others. Due to sending Angela's economy in jeopardy as a result of their actions, Tagg and the other PEFEers ended up having to take over all of Pokefutures assets, leading to the PEFE's modern iteration being formed.
