Name: Daniel Cross
Alias: N/A
Title: Colosseum Champion
Age: 25
Appearance:
Personality: Daniel is a rather nice person to those who know him and don't use Pokemon to commit crimes. However, if he does run into someone who does use Pokemon to commit crimes that person can expect to be challenged to a battle and have their Pokemon taken from them and turned over to the proper authorities. He has zero tolerance for Pokemon abuse due to being raised in the Orre Region and having around during the two Shadow Pokemon incidents. He does have a soft side for people who have been forced into gangs and will sometimes offer to help them turn their lives around.
Biography: Daniel was born in Pyrite Town and as such was raised in a rather rough environment due to the constant street battles and the fact that overall, Pyrite was a rather rough town to grow up in. He was around ten years old when Miror. B rolled on through the town and took down Duking by taking his Pokemon hostage. The town was nearly taken over completely by Cipher and at one point, Daniel was beaten up by a couple of Cipher goons who grew mad at his constant outbursts towards them and the fact that he would occasionally throw rocks at passing Cipher member and on a few occasions drew Anti-Cipher graffiti on their original HQ in Pyrite. He was saved by the police chief at the time after the Cipher goons were done with him. At the insistence of Chief Sherles, Daniel laid low during the Shadow Pokemon incident and was able to see the downfall of Evice and the current Cipher organization.
Over the years between the two Shadow Pokemon Incidents, Daniel was able to acquire a small number of Pokemon and showed them the compassion and understanding that they needed and as such formed a strong bond with them. He laid low during the second Shadow Pokemon Incident as well as he trained his Pokemon to become stronger. As time went by, he heard rumors that a small number of Cipher members had escaped from the Orre Region and had gone underground while trying to rebuild the organization. He made it his life's mission to track down the surviving members of Cipher and bring them in for crimes against both Pokemon and the various people they had stolen them from. As the years went by, he managed to take down a large number of Cipher members and was able to turn them in, but there was one that always seemed to avoid capture. After receiving a tip about the Nishi region and hearing rumors that his target may have gone off the grid, he figured that the sole remaining Cipher leader may have somehow managed to smuggle himself into the Nishi region and was hunting down various Pokemon. Knowing the region had closed it's borders, all he could do was write letters to the leaders of the Nishi Region, begging them to let him in to try so he could try and end the threat to the Pokemon of the region and finally putting an end to Cipher forever. His invitation to the Nishi region was eagerly accepted and he immediately started on his way.
