Vale

A former outlaw with their heart in the right place, but an unfortunate tendency to be around the wrong people at the wrong time. Regaled by old tales of heroes, Vale thought stealing from the rich would ensure poorer Pokemon would be compensated in turn. Unfortunately for them, they were unaware their fellow outlaws were hoarding all the treasure for themselves. That quickly got cut short when an exploration team arrived to deal with them, revealed the truth of the matter, and was so impressed by Vale's abilities they invited them to join the team, an option suitable to the authorities at the time as it forced them to do guild work to make up for their thievery. An outlaw no longer, they now assist in chasing mysteries of yore and helping Pokemon less fortunate than them. Though they're an excellent at decision-making and using wily means to achieve their ends, those who know them note they're still as absentminded and openly trusting as they used to be when it comes to their people skills...

Sometimes, those lucky enough to catch them can spot Vale on the guild roof, always looking eastward at the stars. From what little they divulge publicly, they were born and raised in a barren, volcanic region in that direction that has been rife with cataclysms ever since Legendary Pokemon started disappearing. As a grass-type, it can be assumed this was no easy task for them. Most think they do this to remember their old life, and the strength they presumably got from fighting to survive in those lands. In truth, they're remembering their childhood Torracat partner from those days, who courageously knocked them out of the way of a sudden rift only to drop into the depths themselves.
