From The Codex

Background

AZ is a mysterious man who appears in Pokémon X and Y. He is the former king of the Kalos region and the creator of the ultimate weapon. In modern Kalos, he has the appearance of a disheveled homeless man. He is said to be over 9 feet (3 meters) tall.

This dropdown contains the synopsis of AZ's story. Read at your own risk as you may be spoiled otherwise!
prior to X and Y events

Three thousand years prior to the events of Pokémon X and Y, a war broke out between two countries. This long conflict was drawn out and many lives were lost. People treated Pokémon with special powers as mere tools in their conflict, so they gathered lots of Pokémon, including Pokémon with unique powers. In order to emerge victorious, the soldiers believed that they needed even more powerful Pokémon. AZ loved his Floette, which he had received from his late mother, but it was forcefully taken from him by the soldiers and became just another sacrifice in the war. AZ received the body of his beloved Pokémon some time later, and out of unspeakable grief, he built the ultimate weapon to restore it to life. He succeeded, but unable to overcome his despair, he turned the machine into a weapon, with which he destroyed both sides of the conflict, ending the war. His Floette, disgusted with the fact that the machine was powered by the life energy of other Pokémon, left him. As revealed by documents kept in Lysandre Labs, AZ's younger brother had wished to claim Kalos out of his own greed. After AZ ended the war with the ultimate weapon, his brother realized the error of his ways and sought to make amends for his actions by burying the weapon, in an attempt to prevent it from ever being used again.

X and Y AZ had kept the key to the ultimate weapon around his neck. AZ is first seen on Route 13. When the player encounters him, he mutters about "the flower Pokémon," then leaves. Lysandre captures AZ and takes the ultimate weapon's key, so that he can use it to destroy all life except Team Flare. The player encounters him in a cell in the lowest levels of Lysandre Labs, where he tells the player the story of the history of Kalos. After the player defeats Lysandre once and for all in the Team Flare Secret HQ beneath Geosenge Town, AZ—now freed from his prison—approaches and thanks them for stopping the weapon from being used again. After the player defeats Diantha for the first time to become Champion, during the parade in Lumiose City to celebrate the player's success, AZ approaches the stage and challenges the player to a battle, wishing to learn about what a Trainer truly is. After the battle, AZ smiles, thanking the player for freeing him from his long torment. Then, he sees a sparkle in the sky. Having sensed the liberation of AZ's heart, his beloved Floette who was granted eternal life alongside AZ 3000 years ago—finally returns to him. AZ collapses to his knees, overjoyed that his Pokémon has finally returned. He is not seen again after this.

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

Although not by name, AZ is mentioned several times during the Delta Episode of Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

Mr. Stone mentions that his grandfather used Infinity Energy, the same energy as the ultimate weapon, to improve the lives of people and Pokémon alike, which the Devon Corporation used to grow into one of the top industries in Hoenn.

When the player overhears Wallace's conversation with his master, they discuss that the tree planted in front of the entrance to the Cave of Origin was given to the people of Sootopolis by a "huge man who visited from the Kalos region". Underneath the tree there is a flower of the same kind as the one carried by AZ's Floette.

At the Sky Pillar, Zinnia tells the player that 1000 years ago, "a tall visitor from a distant land" witnessed how Mega Rayquaza stopped a fight between Primal Groudon and Primal Kyogre. He is quoted to have said, "It is the Δ (Delta), born of the great disturbances in this world. By the bonds born of mankind's wish and the power of the stones, it will calm the troubles that plague the world."
