While little is known about Allister’s history, his League Card does give some information on him. He is said to have become a gym leader at a very young age and never takes off his mask in public; In fact, he has dozens of extra masks just in case the one he is wearing should break. Allister is also described as having the ability to see deceased Ghost-type Pokemon which cannot be verified. However, he did suffer an accident at four-years-old that changed him forever.
Hopefully, fans will learn more about Allister with this new episode of Pokemon: Twilight Wings. The trainer is one who fans are anxious to learn about, and given how well this anime has been received, netizens have high hopes for this upcoming episode.
