History

    Cyrus' family is old money. While that doesn't exactly mean much these days, and the Lancasters are all but gone, it meant a lot during the rapture. His family had used much of their fortune to help keep the city afloat with the absence of pokemon, and Cyrus has inherited that generous nature. He was raised to always help those in need, and he always has. While they haven't exactly run out of money, the Lancaster fortune isn't quite what it used to be. This is in part because much of it came from handling, breeding, training and showing pokemon in a variety of league activities before the rapture. Those days are long gone.

    Not content to sit on what fortune his family had left, Cyrus eagerly went down the path of higher education. Sure, studying pokemon these days was more an experience in archeology, a historical branch, he was fascinated by them. How could a biological creature have such extraordinary elemental abilities? How could something small grow into something so big, so easily? And the more he studied, the more he watched old videos, old recordings, read old pokedex entries originating in far-off regions that may as well no longer exist as far as he was aware, the more curious he became. As he grew more and more curious, he pushed himself into his studies, and before he knew it, he was graduating with what many these days would consider a useless degree.

    And then the pokemon came back. One by one, there were people reporting sightings, spreading out all over the region, until eventually, he saw one for himself. A large, flying creature, a pidgeot, his education told him, flew overhead as he stepped out to tend to his garden. That sight inspired something in him. He couldn't help it, he now had the need to study pokemon in person. He wanted to be a trainer.

    It's not like he has an upcoming internship, after all. Not anymore.
