[hider=Bio:] In a town underneath Mt. Chimney, lives a young, headstrong boy named Satou Ashiya. His parents are archeologists who live in this town despite the harsh environment in order to study about rare stones and meteorites around the area. Growing up in this little town, young Satou was heavily influenced by the stories and legends about the former Hoenn Champion, Steven Stone who often visits there. Since then, Steven became Satuo's childhood idol and hope to become a great trainer and archeologist someday.

On his 10th birthday, Satou receives his first Pokemon given to him by his parents, A Growlithe, which serves as the boy's loyal guard dog. He trained with the young pup day and night and was eager to become stronger ever since getting his first Pokemon. Since his parents are too busy with the archeological dig in the Meteor falls, Satou has to work hard and train all by himself.

Inexperience and unsupervised, Satou and his Growlithe decided to put their skills to the test and went to route 113 and get a taste of a real battle feels like. Upon entering the route, He encounters an injured Skarmory sitting by its nest. He attempts to catch it but even if it was injured, the steel bird was too tough for the inexperienced trainer to handle. 

But Satou wasn't about to give out that easy. Day in and day out the boy provoke this metal bird from its nest and got beaten numerous times in the process. He would spend most of his allowance on Pokeballs and devoted most of his time capturing this Skarmory. He even borrowed one of his father's Pokemon, a Honedge, to aid him in capturing his first Pokemon.

Satou's attempt comes to a fruition one day when his Pokeball click three times and finally stabilize, only to find out that this Skarmory has already had an owner. An old man approached him after capturing the Skarmory and claims to own most of the pokes within these parts. He was watching from the sidelines, observing, amusing himself in the young boy's multiple sloppy attempts at capturing one of his troublesome pokes. Admittedly, The old man was impressed on how strong-willed the boy was, and how much strategy he use and decided to let Satou keep this injured Skarmory for what his effort's worth.

The old man then offered a brochure of the Pokemon Academy in the Aloha region and suggested Satou enroll there. Satou was mixed with frustration and embarrassment at the same time and realize that he has so much to learn in becoming a trainer. It was a bittersweet moment capturing his first poke in the wild as Satou was determined to improve himself.

Upon returning home with his newly captured Pokemon, Satou proposed to his parents about this academy. After much deliberation, they decided to send their Son at the academy where he will train to become a better trainer.
