In Pokémon Sun and Moon, Gladion has shades of this, remaining a runaway which is implied to be not a lot older than the participant character (who is stated to be eleven at the start of the online games), portrayed as a sullen individual with piercings and black outfits as a symbol as remaining Guzma's enforcer for Team Skull. This occurs immediately after you uncover out "Black Mask"'s backstory in Persona five.
