== Name origin ==
Kieran's Japanese name, Suguri (スグリ) is the Japanese word for currant or gooseberry (it is the term for the genus ''Ribes''). Due to Kieran's violet theming it may be specifically referring to blackcurrant (クロスグリ, kurosuguri), which has a distinct purple color.
Kieran (in English) probably comes from the word "currant"?

Kieran is an anglicisation of the Irish name Ciarán, which comes from the word ciar, meaning black [[User:Magentafeelings|Magentafeelings]] ([[User talk:Magentafeelings|talk]]) 20:50, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

== French Version Age ==

I think that since the French version is the only clearification of Kieran’s age it should show ~14 just like how the protagonist of PLA have next to their age and the pla protagonist age isn’t cannon and only implied by Cylene as she states the the player character LOOKS not is 15. Similar thing with Kieran because his age is said only in the French version so that age should be there just like the PLA player character. [[User:KenneyTGP|KenneyTGP]] ([[User talk:KenneyTGP|talk]]) 23:49, 23 October 2023 (UTC)

More proof is that Cylene says that the player LOOKS 15 not is, and that’s coming from someone who in that point in the game barely knows you. But for Kieran his age is stated by Carmine who is his sister who would know his age better then anyone else of there than Kieran’s family. So the prof is more solid and I think that should be his age in bulbapidia. [[User:KenneyTGP|KenneyTGP]] ([[User talk:KenneyTGP|talk]]) 00:03, 24 October 2023 (UTC)
:"~14" doesn't make sense at all regardless with the French version, where he's unambiguously 14. It doesn't say this in any other version, therefore not canon. The PLA protags on the other hand, is basically just taking throwaway dialogue at face value. [[User:Inkster|Inkster]] ([[User talk:Inkster|talk]]) 00:41, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

But the difference is that she says you LOOK 15 while it is stated by Carmine Kieran’s sister that he is 14 whether it is only in French or not. [[User:KenneyTGP|KenneyTGP]] ([[User talk:KenneyTGP|talk]]) 00:55, 24 October 2023 (UTC)

That’s what I rhink [[User:KenneyTGP|KenneyTGP]] ([[User talk:KenneyTGP|talk]]) 12:25, 27 October 2023 (UTC)

'''Kieran''' (Japanese: '''スグリ''' ''Suguri'') is a [[rival]] character introduced in [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]]. He lives in [[Kitakami]] with his older sister, [[Carmine]]. He has a quiet, gentle nature, and often hides behind his big sister. He seems to be curious about the [[player]], though, when they arrive from the [[Paldea]] [[region]].<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_characters/</ref> He is a student attending [[Blueberry Academy]].

He is nicknamed '''Kiki''' (Japanese: '''スグ''' ''Sugu'') by his sister.

==In the core series games==
===Pokémon Scarlet and Violet===
Kieran is a student of [[Blueberry Academy]] native to [[Kitakami]]. He and Carmine are chosen to accompany the incoming students from [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} on a cultural tour of the area. Kieran is paired up with the [[player character]], and accompanies them around Kitakami as they search for three signposts that tell the story of how the [[Loyal Three]] laid down their lives to protect the land from the evil {{p|Ogerpon}}. During this time, Kieran admits that he actually admires Ogerpon for her strength and independence.

{{spoilers}}
At the end of the first day in Kitakami, the player, Carmine, and Kieran attend the [[Festival of Masks]]. The player and Carmine have a chance encounter with Ogerpon, who flees and drops her Teal Mask. Carmine decides to keep this incident from Kieran, fearing that the knowledge he missed a chance to meet his idol would break his heart. The next day, the player and Carmine learn from the siblings' grandfather that the "Loyal" Three were actually a group of bandits who attacked Ogerpon's Trainer and stole three masks made for her by the siblings' distant ancestor; Ogerpon slew the Lousy Three, but the villagers believed she was attacking them and came to fear her. Unbeknownst to them, Kieran overhears their conversation and concludes that they are excluding him out of contempt. While the player and Carmine search for materials to repair the Teal Mask, Kieran steals the mask, accuses them of treating him like an outcast, and demands the player defeat him in a battle to reclaim the mask.

After the player defeats Kieran, he surrenders the mask as agreed. However, the Lousy Three unexpectedly come back to life and are given food and Ogerpon's stolen masks by the ignorant villagers. While the player, Carmine, and Ogerpon pursue and defeat the Lousy Three, Kieran convinces the villagers that the old legend was mistaken and that Ogerpon was innocent all along. With Ogerpon's reputation rehabilitated, the group returns to Ogerpon's mountain home, where Ogerpon chooses the player to be her Trainer. However, a jealous Kieran demands a final battle with the player for the right to take Ogerpon, irrespective of Ogerpon's wishes. The player defeats Kieran, who watches them catch Ogerpon before fleeing home, locking himself in his room, and refusing to come out or see the player off.

After the end of the tour, Kieran and Carmine are to return early to Blueberry due to an unexpected development in the [[Great Crater of Paldea]]. Kieran, now consumed by his resentment towards the player and obsession with strength, vows to become even stronger and ominously declares, "Just you wait" to the player.

==Trivia==
* Carmine's nickname for Kieran, "Kiki", is also the nickname of [[Kiki|a particular]] {{p|Delcatty}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]].
* When Kieran punches the [[Loyal Three]]'s shrine after his third battle, a purple mist can be briefly seen in his fist, implying the trio's revival may have something to do with Kieran himself.

'''Kieran''' (Japanese: '''スグリ''' ''Suguri'') is a [[rival]] character introduced in [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]]. He lives in [[Kitakami]] with his older sister, [[Carmine]]. He has a quiet, gentle nature, and often hides behind his big sister. He seems to be curious about the [[player]], though, when they arrive from the [[Paldea]] [[region]].<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_characters/</ref> He is a student attending [[Blueberry Academy]].

He is nicknamed '''Kiki''' (Japanese: '''スグ''' ''Sugu'') by his sister.

==In the core series games==
Kieran is a student of [[Blueberry Academy]] native to [[Kitakami]]. He and Carmine are chosen to accompany the incoming students from [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} on a cultural tour of the area. Kieran is paired up with the [[player character]], and accompanies them around Kitakami as they search for three signposts that tell the story of how the [[Loyal Three]] laid down their lives to protect the land from the evil {{p|Ogerpon}}. During this time, Kieran admits that he actually admires Ogerpon for her strength and independence.

{{spoilers}}
At the end of the first day in Kitakami, the player, Carmine, and Kieran attend the [[Festival of Masks]]. The player and Carmine have a chance encounter with Ogerpon, who flees and drops her Teal Mask. Carmine decides to keep this incident from Kieran, fearing that the knowledge he missed a chance to meet his idol would break his heart. The next day, the player and Carmine learn from the siblings' grandfather that the "Loyal" Three were actually a group of bandits who attacked Ogerpon's Trainer and stole three masks made for her by the siblings' distant ancestor; Ogerpon slew the Lousy Three, but the villagers believed she was attacking them and came to fear her. Unbeknownst to them, Kieran overhears their conversation and concludes that they are excluding him out of contempt. While the player and Carmine search for materials to repair the Teal Mask, Kieran steals the mask, accuses them of treating him like an outcast, and demands the player defeat him in a battle to reclaim the mask.

After the player defeats Kieran, he surrenders the mask as agreed. However, the Lousy Three unexpectedly come back to life and are given food and Ogerpon's stolen masks by the ignorant villagers. While the player, Carmine, and Ogerpon pursue and defeat the Lousy Three, Kieran convinces the villagers that the old legend was mistaken and that Ogerpon was innocent all along. With Ogerpon's reputation rehabilitated, the group returns to Ogerpon's mountain home, where Ogerpon chooses the player to be her Trainer. However, a jealous Kieran demands a final battle with the player for the right to take Ogerpon, irrespective of Ogerpon's wishes. The player defeats Kieran, who watches them catch Ogerpon before fleeing home, locking himself in his room, and refusing to come out or see the player off.

After the end of the tour, Kieran and Carmine are to return early to Blueberry due to an unexpected development in the [[Great Crater of Paldea]]. Kieran, now consumed by his resentment towards the player and obsession with strength, vows to become even stronger and ominously declares, "Just you wait" to the player.

==Trivia==
* Carmine's nickname for Kieran, "Kiki", is also the nickname of [[Kiki|a particular]] {{p|Delcatty}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]].
* When Kieran punches the [[Loyal Three]]'s shrine after his third battle, a purple mist can be briefly seen in his fist, implying the trio's revival may have something to do with Kieran himself.

'''Kieran''' (Japanese: '''スグリ''' ''Suguri'') is a [[rival]] character introduced in [[The Hidden Treasure of Area Zero]]. He lives in [[Kitakami]] with his older sister, [[Carmine]]. He has a quiet, gentle nature, and often hides behind his big sister. He seems to be curious about the [[player]], though, when they arrive from the [[Paldea]] [[region]].<ref>https://scarletviolet.pokemon.com/en-us/news/new_characters/</ref> He is a student attending [[Blueberry Academy]].

He is nicknamed '''Kiki''' (Japanese: '''スグ''' ''Sugu'') by his sister.

==In the core series games==
Kieran is a student of [[Blueberry Academy]] native to [[Kitakami]]. He and Carmine are chosen to accompany the incoming students from [[Naranja Academy]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Uva Academy]]{{sup/9|V}} on a cultural tour of the area. Kieran is paired up with the [[player character]], and accompanies them around Kitakami as they search for three signposts that tell the story of how the [[Loyal Three]] laid down their lives to protect the land from the evil {{p|Ogerpon}}. During this time, Kieran admits that he actually admires Ogerpon for her strength and independence.

{{spoilers}}
At the end of the first day in Kitakami, the player, Carmine, and Kieran attend the [[Festival of Masks]]. The player and Carmine have a chance encounter with Ogerpon, who flees and drops her Teal Mask. Carmine decides to keep this incident from Kieran, fearing that the knowledge he missed a chance to meet his idol would break his heart. The next day, the player and Carmine learn from the siblings' grandfather that the "Loyal" Three were actually a group of bandits who attacked Ogerpon's Trainer and stole three masks made for her by the siblings' distant ancestor; Ogerpon slew the Lousy Three, but the villagers believed she was attacking them and came to fear her. Unbeknownst to them, Kieran overhears their conversation and concludes that they are excluding him out of contempt. While the player and Carmine search for materials to repair the Teal Mask, Kieran steals the mask, accuses them of treating him like an outcast, and demands the player defeat him in a battle to reclaim the mask.

After the player defeats Kieran, he surrenders the mask as agreed. However, the Lousy Three unexpectedly come back to life and are given food and Ogerpon's stolen masks by the ignorant villagers. While the player, Carmine, and Ogerpon pursue and defeat the Lousy Three, Kieran convinces the villagers that the old legend was mistaken and that Ogerpon was innocent all along. With Ogerpon's reputation rehabilitated, the group returns to Ogerpon's mountain home, where Ogerpon chooses the player to be her Trainer. However, a jealous Kieran demands a final battle with the player for the right to take Ogerpon, irrespective of Ogerpon's wishes. The player defeats Kieran, who watches them catch Ogerpon before fleeing home, locking himself in his room, and refusing to come out or see the player off.

After the end of the tour, Kieran and Carmine are to return early to Blueberry due to an unexpected development in the [[Great Crater of Paldea]]. Kieran, now consumed by his resentment towards the player and obsession with strength, vows to become even stronger and ominously declares, "Just you wait" to the player.

==Trivia==
* Carmine's nickname for Kieran, "Kiki", is also the nickname of [[Kiki|a particular]] {{p|Delcatty}} in [[Pokémon Adventures]].
* When Kieran punches the [[Loyal Three]]'s shrine after his third battle, a purple mist can be briefly seen in his fist, implying the trio's revival may have something to do with Kieran himself.
