Champion Red

Champion Red (Champion_RED@rocketmail.com) was the winner of the Kanto Pokemon League at a young age. After beating his rival Blue, life became dull. With not many people out there with the skill to approach the Elite Four and even fewer able to make it to him, things became monotonous. Perhaps out of desperation, Red corralled the stragglers from Team Rocket in order to form the organization again.

This was a grave mistake as not only was Red broken by Purin's Keeper, but his best friend Pikachu was taken while he was sleeping and suffered. By the time Red was able to find Pikachu it was too late. With no option left, he blew Pikachu's brains out to spare him the pain of dying by the poison of an Ekans.

Some time after this, Red replaced his best friend and journeyed to Mt. Silver. His Pokemon no longer trusted him and he was alone despite having them near. While up there, he communicated with people who had found his e-mail address.

Contacting him was also a mistake. The constant activity on his gear lead Purin's Keeper right to him. The last anyone heard of Red, he was paralyzed, probably because of Purin's Song.

Purin's Keeper later stated that Red was dead. This, however, was a lie. Purin took over Red's body, making him the eighth Keeper. This was to keep Blue from suffering the same fate. This was because Giovanni disappeared as a Gym Leader and Blue took his place, so Purin's Keeper set his sights on blue instead of the Rocket leader. Red begged for himself to be taken instead of Blue and his wish was granted. However, Blue eventually died by Red's hands when possessed.

After Blue Oak was chosen to be the ninth Keeper, Red was set free and Fire Red and him left together at Oak's insisting. Red was left behind at one point and went back to face Oak. Unfortunately, he was captured but Purin's song no longer worked on the mute, former Champion. They had a long "talk" instead, with Purin talking through Red's e-mail address.

When Kris was finally killed, Red disappeared. His location is unknown, but he may have gone home.

Later e-mails confirmed that he was traveling through Johto.
