About Arven

The son of Professors Sada and Turo, Arven was frequently left at home by himself as his parents were busy with their research. According to a journal in the research labs, one of the parents walked out on Arven not long after his birth. One day, the remaining parent brought a strange Pokémon to stay at the home, but when other people saw it, they were forced to take it back to Area Zero. Arven bonded with his Mabosstiff, as it was always with him every day. One day, he and Mabosstiff went to Area Zero, only to be attacked by a strange Pokémon that left Mabosstiff severely injured.Despite surviving, Mabosstiff was mostly unresponsive and a former shell of itself. Arven tried to heal it by using conventional medicine and going to Poké Centers, but all attempts to heal it failed. Arven later learned of the Herba Mystica from his parents' book and believed it could help Mabosstiff, but was not a proficient Pokémon battler and was unable to acquire them as they were guarded by Titan Pokémon, powerful Pokémon that had grown to huge sizes from eating the herbs.

Fun Fact!

During his Pokémon battles, Arven holds his Poké Balls upside down, showcasing his poor proficiency in them.
