For a contest/event over on furvilla!

A short backstory -

After hearing about Team Skull over in the Alola region, Seyton had always wanted to join and possibly take over the leader. When he was younger he often watched reports and news stories of Team Skull, getting more and more excited each time. Guzma was like an idol to him. He trained for years, travelling all around Kalos, Unova, Kanto etc, training to be the best he could.
After the many years of training he finally caught his perfect team.
This consisted of - Houndoom, Krookadile, Drapion, Pangoro and Weavile. He was saving his final spot for a pokemon rarely found.
Seyto had always wanted to train dark pokemon, there was just something so... mysterious about them.
As he watched the final broadcast about team skull before he travelled, he quickly saw that a new trainer had taken out team skull, practially tearing it apart.
Seyton was upset by this although he didnt let that get to him and instead travelled somewhere new, to a region that was yet to be put on the map, training to be the first known dark gym leader!
