Description
Akio's Father lives in Jubilife Village in the Hisui region, having migrated from another land to source wood for his craft. He journeys annually to Alabaster Forest for timber, once bringing his son Alec along on these trips, which minimized his contact with other Hisui residents.
He firmly believes humans and Pokémon cannot coexist peacefully, a conviction born from an unspecified Pokémon-related incident that left him deeply fearful. During an early excursion with Alec, he warned of a Zoroark lurking deep in the Alabaster Icelands forest, recounting legends of its mistreatment by humans and lasting resentment.
This warning clashed with reality when Alec discovered a Shiny Hisuian Zorua in the woods. Separated from his father, Alec suffered an accidental fall injury. After their reunion, a pack of Zorua and Zoroark emerged to reclaim the shiny Zorua. Departing the forest, Akio's Father reaffirmed his stance against human-Pokémon bonds, leaving Alec despondent over the lost chance at friendship.
Years later, he persists in Jubilife as a woodworker. Despite his unchanged fear and beliefs, he crafts a new Shiny Hisuian Zoroark mask to replace the original Hisuian Zoroark mask Alec lost during the childhood Zorua encounter.
His core worldview on human-Pokémon relations remains consistent. His actions following an unidentified Pokémon's attack on Jubilife Village are not detailed.
