Raphael was abandoned by his original parents and brought in the Viridian city orphanage. He always longed to be a pokemon trainer and to see the world, but it seemed like it was a dream too far for him. However, one TV ad changed everything. The Champion of Kanto, Blue Oak, told the region that the league was looking for a new trainer, to show that Kanto could produce world class trainers. Inspired by Blue's words, Raphael entered the competition. It was here that Raphael got his very first taste of being a trainer with his given pokemon, Raticate. Watching Raticate battle was incredible for Raphael, it made him want to become not just a trainer, but the very best in all the world. After a long drawn out tournament and a final battle with his tournament rival, Harry, Raphael had his hand raised as champion of the tournament. From there, not only did he become the chosen trainer of the kanto league but also the new adopted child of the d'Alcotts, a wealthy couple that was helping to sponsor the contest. Consider Raphael's age and status as an orphan, they not only took him in, but formally adopted him as their own. 

 

Now Raphael has the tools needed for his journey, but with the constant eyes of the league forever staring at him and the expectation of the entire region on his shoulders, will Raphael stand strong or will he crumble?
