Sorry hi you’ve triggered my inner arven freak and now i desperately need to ramble because i love him so much and he’s such a great sad character😭 DONT MIND ME
basically. his dog is mabostiff. and he was really sick and injured due to an encounter with the legendary for the respective game (miraidon & koraidon.) (which is also why he’s so hostile against said pokemon at the start of the game.) depending on which version you play (mother in scarlet, father in violet. both are the regions professor) one of his parents “left him” when he was a kid (sent themselves to the past/future and became an ai robot. but he didn’t know that until the final events of the main game.) and the other parent is just said to be an unknown coworker of the professors. so all he had was his mabostiff since he was like. 6.😭
and arven likes cooking ! so he sought out these magical herbs that were said to heal certain effects on pokemon so he could turn them into sandwiches (arven Really likes sandwiches.) to heal his dog, which is what he asks the progag to help him with and the herbs are protected by these gigantic pokemon known as titans that we have to defeat. he also constantly calls the protag “little bud” and it’s so CUTE😭😭😭
and the part where they get the final herb and his mabostiff is properly fully healed and gains back its original strength is super sweet too. it made me Sob the first time i played through it. he’s just so sweet and he’s great at cooking and loves animals (he specifically cooks and makes special food to heal sick pokemon🥹). what more could you ask for!!😍😍
and at the end of the main game penny nemona arven and the protag go down to this place called area zero to find arven’s parent. and then within about 20 minutes he realises his parent in fact didn’t leave him and died, and then has to watch us battle and defeat said parent right in front of him. and then he just goes back to trying to make recipes for pokemon days later??!?? bless his soul.
he’s also kind of clingy and possessive of the protag to some extent?? at the start of the game just as you set off for the little “treasure hunt” thingy (which is just. taking on the 3 paths) arven and nemona keep arguing about who the protag likes the most and wants to spend time with😭 he’s so cute and perfect and he makes me SICK
