In the sprawling, bustling city of Lumiose, Sylvie is a 10-year-old girl with little more than the clothes on her back and the sharp instincts of a survivor. Orphaned from a young age, Sylvie has never known a life of comfort or care. Abandoned by her parents, she was sent to an orphanage where she learned early on that weakness would not be tolerated. The adults running the orphanage were cruel and abusive, using fear and punishment to maintain control. The other children, just as broken as her, formed their own hierarchies, bullying the weakest and leaving them to fend for themselves. Sylvie, determined not to be crushed under the weight of her circumstances, learned to become self-reliant, tough, and cold.
