History: Alex was his Trainer's first attempt at breeding, bred in Johto to an older, experienced boy whose name has since escaped the Houndoom's memory. For this reason he quickly became a favorite, frequently battled and striving for Level 100, quickly passing Houndour and evolving after a short period of time. Alex never left his Trainer's side, as a strong bond formed between them that resulted in unshakable loyalty.
The infection came just he was about to hit Level 31. Alex and his Trainer weren't able to make it out of Johto quickly enough and the boy was killed. At first, Alex guarded the body, clinging to a small strand of hope that his Trainer was still alive... and he stood at his post long enough to practically starve himself. It didn't take an extremely long time for him to go insane, and after slow days of fending off hungry undead who wanted to feast on the decaying corpse Alex lost all willpower, turning on the body of his deceased Trainer and having his first meal in days. From there on he continued to dine on anything he could kill, not caring whether or not they were infected. Primal instinct took over and never left.
Alex succumbed to the virus quickly, due to his already unstable mental state bought about by starvation and immense guilt, and of course because he was partly fire-type. It didn't take long for him to completely lose his mind and all consciousness as he turned into a (literally) mindless zombie who ate whenever and whatever he could... including humans and already dead bodies.
He now continues his unconscious walk around Johto, with the only things on his mind being food and blood.
User Notes: Basically, Alex is rotting away from the inside out, and the signs will become evident very soon as time passes. In the mean time he's very scrawny, despite his constant eating. He walks at a slow, uneven pace, his walk more of a shuffle, looking as if he's about to fall over face-first. Currently he has no scars, as he rarely fights for his food and would rather scavenge than hunt.
