About me:
Despite seemingly being an unsuspecting merchant from the Ginkgo Guild, it is later revealed that he is a direct descendant of a group of prestigious ancient Hisuian people called the Celestica and also the main culprit who caused the rampage of Dialga/Palkia, causing the sudden space-time rifts while attempting to summon Giratina and use it as a pawn in order to force Arceus out of hiding. The name Volo is derived from the Latin vocabulary volō, which translates to 'I wish'. This reflects on his insatiable desire to capture Arceus and remake the entire world with its power.
Being consistent with the plant based themed names, he also appears to be named after the plant volot.
Volo has a boundless sense of curiosity and is always interested in unusual findings and people. He also has a tendency to pop up unexpectedly.
However, it would later be revealed that underneath his friendliness, he is a delusional and ambitious megalomanic who is extremely obsessed with Arceus. His desire to meet the deity is so great, that he won't hesitate to defy the forces of the universe by gathering the plates to create a new and "better" world on his own. Even after losing to the player, he refuses to accept or respect the order of the universe, displaying his extreme delusion as well.
Volo also admitted he was willing to use physical force on the player force to take the plates from them should the player not wish to fight him.
Despite his negative traits, it is implied that he does care for his own Pokémon as shown with pictures of him and his Togepi at the photography studio, as well as the fact that his Togepi eventually evolves in Togekiss with Togepi's first evolution in Togetic being only possible if Togepi has high friendship with their trainer.
