This video is to explain Thunder's backstory.
I might do the rest of the major characters. Which character should I do next?

Synopsis:
Thunder was born Selena Lopez in a Mexican Region. She grew up with her brother, Ryan, and their trainer, Esperanza Lopez. During the Fire-Water Civil War, all three would be kidnapped in a towering prison.

Although abused, Thunder made the most of it and escaped death, along with her brother. Thunder managed to escape the tower with her prison mates and kill the guards. All three along with Ryan would live and be liberated. Unfortunately, Esperanza never came back.

Post-Fire-Water Civil War, Thunder, and Ryan went their separate ways. Thunder would return to Mexico to find Esperanza and her family mourned for a short time. She tried returning but decided to stay, saving the lives of a Plusle and Minun. When she grew up, she got interested in Luchador wrestling and by her late teens, she was a successful wrestler.

But with unhappy fans, she fled Mexico to Hawaii/Alola, and met her cousin, Jay. They both travel to the current region and spend time with Ryan. Eventually, Jay moves back but Thunder stays, and Pablo and Miguel finally follow her.

Thunder then gets a job as a school coach and with the rest of the teachers, helps rescue Kasper. However, things take a dramatic turn when she is also captured! But after being freed, she helps to fight back.
