Ten years before the events of Pokémon Violet, Professor Turo was part of the team that explored the [[Paldea|Great Crater of Paldea]], setting up the [[Zero Lab]] in [[Area Zero]]. There, Turo discovered and named the [[Terastal phenomenon]]. Turo was able to develop a prototype for the [[Tera Orb]], earning him corporate backing for his projects and allowing him to set up a second laboratory in a lighthouse near Cabo Poco. Furthermore, he was able to harness more of the unstable energy, despite concern from his funders, and moved the majority of his research back to the Zero Lab. Turo, fascinated with the idea of Pokémon from other ages, succeeded in developing a [[Time travel|time machine]] that would allow him to reach out to [[Paradox Pokémon]], Pokémon from the distant future, by transporting Poké Balls to different points on the timeline to catch them and bring them into modern time. These included {{p|Miraidon}}, a futuristic descendant of {{p|Cyclizar}}. Additionally, a former associate of Turo had begun expecting his child.

There, Turo discovered and named the [[Terastal phenomenon]]. At some point, Turo found himself in an [[Crystal Pool|unfamiliar place]] where he met a child who gave him the idea to created an AI copy of himself, the {{p|Miraidon|Iron Serpent}}'s real name and and traded one of his copies of the [[Violet Book]] for a [[Briar's Book|white volume]], which would really help with his research.

However, Turo began to become obsessed with his research, continuing the influx of Paradox Pokémon into the modern day in his pursuit of a paradise for his family. Shortly after [[Arven]] was born, Arven's mother abandoned Turo, driving him deeper into his work and ironically causing him to begin neglecting the very people he had sought to build his paradise for. Arven ended up growing up in the lighthouse laboratory on [[Poco Path]] on his own, never seeing or connecting with Turo due to the latter's newfound devotion to the Tera Project. This estrangement was intensified by Turo's search for a more suitable assistant, leading to him creating an {{wp|artificial intelligence}} copy of himself using the Zero Lab's crystals to double productivity, as humanity does not possess the knowledge to develop a sophisticated AI in the time period the game takes place in, which is why the AI cannot leave Area Zero. Together, they were able to transport a second, more aggressive Miraidon to the present day, in hopes that the two Miraidon could survive and thrive in their new surroundings. At some point, Turo also developed the [[Poké Ball]] Lock System, an ID-based defense mechanism for his lab.
