 About a year later his sister and her boyfriend sent him off to get his trainer license and first Pokemon, a cute Piplup with a primadonna attitude. Afterward the the boy and his Pokemon started exploring around Sinnoh, one of his first goals was to go back to Pastroia City and explore the Great Marsh to finally catch some marsh Pokemon he never could when younger.
Afterward he focused Too bad afterall that hard work to join the idol industry, now he have less time to spend with his Pokemon in contests.Â

Mun Notes: Nique is a model and idol, so I donât mind if someone acts like they seen him in a âŚI donât know a commercial or something in that nature. However, all first interactions are the same stranger based level ( unless stated otherwise ). I know he have ( a still improving ) French accent but heâs a Sinnoh boy, but if the sweet muns read his bio above this then the assumption âHeâs in Kalosâ is quickly killed. He donât personally know Crasher Wake though he lived in Pastroia City as a kid.
