Lawrence isn't quite sure when he became a Collector. Of course, it started when he was a child, but after that, the drive simply continued. From cards it progressed to dolls and figures, and when he left home with a Spearow in his backpack and a six-pack of poke balls, he was ready to take on the world.

He soon found out that most pokemon were too commonplace to interest him, but once in a while, he'd catch a glimpse of something more, and when he traded his Fearow off to a drunken gambler for a Growlithe, he began to understand that pieces… could be acquired.

The revelation was startling, and more importantly, useful.

Five years later, as he prepared to add Lugia to his collection, he still burned with childish joy.
