'''Lorenzo''' (Japanese: '''ボンゴレ''' ''Vongole'') is a primary character from ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes]]''. He is the grandfather of {{mov|Bianca}}, and is also curator of the city's museum, a gondola builder and the protector of {{mov|Latios|Latios|5}} and {{mov|Latias|Latias|5}}. He is a kind man with much wisdom but can be stern and angry at times.


== History ==
'''Lorenzo''' (Japanese: '''ボンゴレ''' ''Vongole'') is a main character who appeared in ''[[M05|Pokémon Heroes: Latios & Latias]]''. He is the grandfather of {{OBP|Bianca|M05}}. Lorenzo is also the curator of the [[Alto Mare]]'s museum, a {{wp|gondola}} builder, and the protector of the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{OBP|Latios|M05}} and {{OBP|Latias|M05}}.


He first appears during {{Ash}}'s visit to the museum where he explains the history of the city and the Defense Mechanism of [[Altomare]] (DMA). Ash is distracted by the presence of Bianca (although it was Latias in disguise who Ash saved - Ash is just confused by their likenesses) and nearly gets in trouble for leaning on the DMA. He follows Bianca, and Latias to the secret garden of Latios and Latias. Lorenzo arrives just in time to prevent Latios from harming Ash and Pikachu, and allows Latias to play with them. He shows Ash the Soul Dew and explains he knew the father of the two guardians, and how he became theirs after their father died. Lorenzo, Bianca and Ash leave the garden, they cut through Lorenzo's workshop where he constructs gondolas.

He first appeared during {{Ash}}'s visit to the museum where he explained the history of the city and the [[Defense Mechanism of Alto Mare]] or DMA for short. Ash got distracted by the presence of {{OBP|Bianca|M05}}, whom he thought was the seemingly normal girl he had saved earlier, but she was actually {{OBP|Latias|M05}} disguised as her. He was scolded by Lorenzo for absentmindedly leaning on the DMA.  


That night, Lorenzo is later knocked out by {{mov|Annie}}'s {{p|Espeon}}. He is later found by Bianca and they go to the museum where they are captured and bound by {{p|Ariados}}. They can only play poker as the DMA is used by [[Oakley]] and Latios is hurt by the effects. Ash, Latias and Pikachu come to save them and stop the DMA. Lorenzo warns Annie not to touch the corrupted Soul Dew but she is too slow to hear him and causes the DMA to go out of control. Lorenzo is present at the sacrifice of Latios and is the first to realize he has died. He later bids farewell to Ash, Misty and Brock as they leave the city. He is seen in the credits with a construction crew appearing to be either rebuilding or fixing the DMA in the museum.
Ash followed Bianca and Latias to the [[Secret Garden (location)|secret garden]] of {{OBP|Latios|M05}} and Latias. Lorenzo arrived just in time to prevent Latios from attacking Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}}, and allowed Latias to play with them. He showed Ash the [[Soul Dew]]'s resting place, a pool of water and then explained that he knew the father of the two Guardians, and went onto protect Latios and Latias after their father's death. As Lorenzo, Bianca, and Ash left the garden, they cut through Lorenzo's workshop where he constructs gondolas.


That night, Lorenzo was later incapacitated by {{OBP|Annie|M05}}'s {{p|Espeon}}. He was later found by Bianca, and they rushed to the museum where they were captured and bound by {{p|Ariados}}. They could only watch helplessly as [[Oakley]] used the DMA, and Latios suffered the consequences. Ash, Latias, and Pikachu came to save them and stopped the DMA. Lorenzo warned Annie not to touch the corrupted Soul Dew, but she ignored the warning. Annie touching the corrupted Soul Dew caused the DMA to go out of control, to ruinous effects. Lorenzo was present at Latios's sacrifice and was the first to realize that he had died. The following morning, Lorenzo took Ash and the others out in one of his gondolas to search for the guardians. While Latias was located, Latios confirmed that he had sacrificed himself to protect the city, and gifted Lorenzo and Bianca a new Soul Dew.

He was scolded by Lorenzo for absentmindedly leaning on the DMA.

Ash followed Bianca and Latias to the secret garden of Latios and Latias. Lorenzo arrived just in time to prevent Latios from attacking Ash and Pikachu, and allowed Latias to play with them. He showed Ash the Soul Dew's resting place, a pool of water and then explained that he knew the father of the two Guardians, and went onto protect Latios and Latias after their father's death. As Lorenzo, Bianca, and Ash left the garden, they cut through Lorenzo's workshop where he constructs gondolas.

That night, Lorenzo was later incapacitated by Annie's Espeon. He was later found by Bianca, and they rushed to the museum where they were captured and bound by Ariados. They could only watch helplessly as Oakley used the DMA, and Latios suffered the consequences. Ash, Latias, and Pikachu came to save them and stopped the DMA. Lorenzo warned Annie not to touch the corrupted Soul Dew, but she ignored the warning. Annie touching the corrupted Soul Dew caused the DMA to go out of control, to ruinous effects. Lorenzo was present at Latios's sacrifice and was the first to realize that he had died. The following morning, Lorenzo took Ash and the others out in one of his gondolas to search for the guardians. While Latias was located, Latios confirmed that he had sacrificed himself to protect the city, and gifted Lorenzo and Bianca a new Soul Dew.

Lorenzo later bid farewell to Ash and his friends as they left the city. He later returned to the museum to watch as a construction crew repaired the damaged DMA.
