Alder (Resurgence)

Alder (Japanese: アデク Adeku) is a recurring character in Pokémon Resurgence. He is the Champion of the Unova region.

History
In the past, Alder's starter Pokémon Larvesta died of illness sometime after evolving into Volcarona, and in despair over not being able to save it, he began traveling around aimlessly. Before his partner's death, the two of them madly pursued strength. Volcarona's death changed Alder's outlook on life.

According to Ghetsis, Alder may not have actually won the title of Champion, having instead being requested by the Pokémon League to take the position.
