Biography

Ghetsis explains N's future as the heir to becoming a king of Team Plasma.

As a child, N lived with his sisters, Anthea and Concordia, in a castle. Ghetsis raised N, claiming N would be the next heir as Team Plasma's king, and his goal would be to liberate all Pokémon, by using his power to communicate with them. When Ghetsis was not looking, Anthea and Concordia would sneak into N's quarters and play with him and their Pokémon. After growing up, N was about to be crowned King of Team Plasma in Ghetsis' plan to use N's pure-hearted desire to save Pokemon to summon Reshiram and enslave it. However, the attempt backfired, and left Team Plasma's castle destroyed by Reshiram's Fusion Flare. N, along with Anthea and Concordia fled to a secluded abandoned castle, where they spent their time tending to mistreated Pokémon.

N befriends Ash's Pikachu.

N was seen boarding of a ship and setting his hat on. N went to an abandoned research facility, where he found some notes about a Pokémon the scientists of Team Plasma wanted to revive. N took a look at the heroes and went away. A moment later, N came back to the heroes and took an interest in Pikachu, since N had the ability to hear their voices. Cilan doubted N had such an ability, but N did not care, since he only wished to see people and Pokémon to live in peace. N introduced himself to the group, who were going to the White Ruins to find Reshiram. N confirmed Reshiram was a powerful Pokémon and was astounded to hear Ash met Zekrom. N told them the story about the Hero, whose Black and White chapters recite the Hero's bonding with the Pokémon. N hoped Reshiram and Zekrom would give him the answers as to why Pokémon exist. N asked about Ash's goal and frowned to hear Ash wanted to battle his way to become a Pokémon Master. Seeing Team Rocket wanted to capture Ash's Pikachu, N ran off and took Jellicent's Shadow Ball, meant to hit Snivy and Axew. N was angered at Team Rocket's presence and wondered why Meowth spoke in human language. After the battle was over, N called two Alomomola, who used Refresh to heal Ash's Pikachu and fed him with an Oran Berry. Despite the differences, N felt he could still be friends with Ash, Iris and Cilan. N left, promising to meet with the heroes once more and pondered the thought why Zekrom showed itself to Ash.

Braviary protects N from the attacks.

N managed to block a road and save a Braviary from two Team Plasma grunts. However, the grunts sent Zangoose and Seviper to attack N and Braviary, who fell down. Later on, the heroes encountered N and Braviary, the latter had his wing damaged. The heroes took N and Braviary to the Pokémon Center, where they both were healed. N admitted the organization, Team Plasma, had their ambition of capturing and mistreating the Pokémon - hence his distrust towards battles. The heroes offered their help in saving Braviary, but N declined, since he claimed it was his personal mission. Seeing the heroes really wanted to help out, N made a plan. As soon as the grunts went back to capture Braviary, N went off with a decoy. The grunts sent Zangoose and Seviper to attack, only to realize N was holding a bunch of blankets. Braviary sensed N was in danger and went back to N to protect him, even if Braviary was told to flee, making Ash think the Pokémon can sense N's feelings. Braviary returned and protected N, while the heroes sent Pikachu and Excadrill to battle the grunts. Zangoose attempted to attack Pikachu, but Braviary took off its bandages and used Wing Attack, saving Pikachu. After the battle, N thanked Braviary, who flew off. N decided to tag along with the heroes, who were headed to Driftveil City. N also admitted he did feel something inside while watching the battle, even if he remained distrustful towards such fighting.

N went with the heroes to Virbank City, where they encountered the Harbor Patrol, led by Halsey. Halsey showed he worked with his Pokémon to keep people in Virbank City safe from danger, like fire. N argued about such philosophy, claiming humans should not drag Pokémon into things humans caused. Seeing the danger in action, however, N sensed Watchog wanted to help its trainer, Halsey, who was stuck inside the building. After communicating with Watchog, N, along with Iris and Cilan, freed Halsey out of the building. Later on N, realized Watchog wanted to protect people out of its own will and respected its wish, along with Halsey's Frillish and Dewott. Some time later, N, along with the heroes, walked to the Kanto Festival and saw Charmander, who got too excited and hurt itself. The group visited Charmander in the Pokémon Center, reminding Ash of his own Charizard. Ash told N, Cilan and Iris about his Charizard and his downfall and uprising. After telling the story, Ash decided to take back Charizard from Professor Oak's lab. N and Cilan were amazed by Charizard and watched the battle against Charizard and Dragonite, who were rivals to each other. During the heat of the battle N stopped the battle, since either side would get seriously hurt.

After arriving to a small city, N warned his friends they'd had to split ways. Upon entering the town, the group was stopped by Officer Jenny, who warned them a raging Haxorus is destroying the city. Since the passages to the city were sealed, the group went on a small boat to the other side, into the city. There, they encountered Looker and introduced him to N. Eventually, they found Haxorus, who rampaged the town. Iris tried to reason with Haxorus, who nearly attacked her, for N pushed Iris out of the way and saved her. Since the trainer, Rhodus, could not call Haxorus back, N tried to communicate with Haxorus, but was unable to. Eventually, N crossed paths with Team Plasma again and found Colress, who controlled Haxorus and even Iris' Dragonite. To save both Haxorus and Dragonite, N tried to reach to reason with them, but ended up badly hurt. After Colress' machine was destroyed, the Team Plasma forces tried to capture N. N was rescued and by Anthea and Concordia, who took him and the heroes to a secluded place.

He appeared once more to Ash's group, getting trapped inside the Dragonspiral ruins Cedric Juniper was examining. Reshiram was successfully summoned and put under Dr. Colress's control; however, Pikachu destroyed the device control it, freeing Reshiram. N communicated with Reshiram, seeing that it was willing to let Pokemon and humans try resolving things without its interference. With Team Plasma defeated and arrested, N decided to take to traveling with Anthea and Concordia, to help Pokemon in need.

N appeared one final time during the credits of Genesect and the Legend Awakened, walking through a desert like area when he looks up to the sky, seemingly knowing what Ash, Iris and Cilan have accomplished with finding a home for Genesect. Template:Incomplete-plot
