Biography
Howard Clifford is one of the masterminds behind Ryme City. Through his travels, he wanted to create a place where Pokémon and people would live together in unity, a place with no Pokémon battles, no Poké Balls, just peace. However, he became ill and confined to a wheel chair which caused his ambitions to change.
Initially, he misled Tim on the path into thinking his son had aplot to ruin his dream using the chemical R, but it turns out he was the mastermind behind it, having hired Harry to find Mewtwo and Dr. Laurent to create R. This was to make humans and Pokémon evolve together by using the R to make Pokémon at a heightened emotional level and use Mewtwo's powers to combine Pokémon and people. He did this with a neural interface that let him transfer his consciousness to Mewtwo.
