History: Paul Giammati is something of a celebrity. When he was thirteen he won a national rookie tournament within Hoenn and within the span of three years, he won three more national tournaments in Kalos, Johto, and Sinnoh after taking down their gym leaders on his own journey to become the best trainer. It's easy to believe that he's a prodigy, but that simply isn't the case. Each journey he took threw new adversities at him, forcing him to adapt to everything in order to survive whether it was surviving alone in the icy peaks of Mt. Coronet, in the long winding desserts of Hoene and Kalos, and of course, the variety of trainers that he had faced on a daily basis.

However it is these adversities that give him reason to go on the journeys in the first place. He doesn't have any deep meaning for his travels and challenges. He wasn't trying to become famous nor was he trying to do something dramatic like becoming an Elite Four champion in honor of a deceased father. To be frank, his family is extremely typical and plain that he really does wonder if he is related to them. For him, it's just the thrill of conquering something amazing that gives reason to his actions. This is the reason why he has traveled to the Toppe region. It is another place to climb and conquer for him.

It was probably due to how boring everything was in his family life that had drove him to this kind of interest. His family is very nice and caring, but they could be considered the most boring, drab people that could've ever been conjured up. His dad is an accountant with no sense of adventure or any hobbies worth noting and his mom used to work as a banker before becoming a housewife. His older brother played it safe and went to college and now has a boring desk job. Vince, wanting to get away from them, went out on his journey and is now rarely ever home.

Goal: To battle with the strongest

Other: Due to his previous journeys that had him carrying plenty of equipment to survive his journeys, he is very fit and strong.
