Volo is a tall blonde man who stands at the height of 6'3" (190 cm). He bears a striking resemblance to both Cynthia and Cogita, which his outfits, hair color and eye color resembling either of the two. Volo has long blonde hair that cascades over left eye. His hair is often tied up in a bun that rests in the back of his head, but when he is not wearing his Ginkgo Guild uniform, this bun is untied making his hair resemble that of the Pokémon Arceus. He has thin eyebrows, and his gray eyes are also thin and small and end in a single thick eyelash. Volo's Ginkgo Guild uniform is largely blue, with yellow and white accents. His top is all blue, ending in puffy furred cuffs around the sleeve and collar ends. Despite the coloring, the design pays homage to Cynthia's long coat and scarf. On the front, Volo wears a white apron and connects to his belt from around his neck and back. This apron reaches down towards his knees in the front, ending in six circular yellow spots. The apron's chest shows the Ginkgo Guild's logo. A brown belt with a silver buckle on the front wraps around his waist holding up his blue pants. These pants are puffy at the knees and are tucked away inside his large and brown rounded boots. Volo wears a furred yellow and blue hat. Volo is always carrying around a large brown backpack filled with multiple merchandise and wares to sell to travelers around the region. Despite seemingly being an unsuspecting merchant from the Ginkgo Guild, it is later revealed that he is a direct descendant of a group of prestigious ancient Hisuian people called the Sinnohan and also the main culprit who caused the rampage of Dialga/Palkia, causing the sudden space-time rifts while attempting to summon Giratina and use it as a pawn in order to force Arceus out of hiding. However despite his negative traits it is implied that he does care for his own Pokémon as shown with pictures of him and his Togepi at the photography studio as well as the fact that his Togepi eventually evolves in Togekiss with Togepi’s first evolution in Togetic being only possible if Togepi has high friendship with their trainer. underneath his friendliness, he is a delusional and ambitious megalomanic who is extremely obsessed with Arceus and his desire to meet the deity is so great that he won't hesitate to defy the forces of the universe by gathering the plates to create a new and "better" world on his own. Even after losing to the player, he refuses to accept or respect the order of the universe, displaying his extreme delusion as well. Volo is a merchant of the Ginkgo Guild that the player encounters several times over the course of Pokémon Legends: Arceus. Unlike many of the other merchants, he often seems to travel alone, giving the player items and advice on how to catch or battle certain Pokémon, such as teaching them how to use the back-strike while using Poké Balls. Volo is often excited by the player's actions, taking interest in the player's alterations and contributions to the course of history. He has a sense of curiosity, being interested in the lore and myths that may be found around the Hisui region, including the Plates held by the special and Legendary Pokémon around the region. Despite Volo's appearance and frequent aid to the player, his kindness is nothing more than a facade, hiding a malicious and clever side to his character. Volo appears to have a deep distaste and grudge for the player, wishing that Giratina's space-time rift had never brought them to Hisui. His interest in mythology and Arceus created an intense self-commitment to meet the Mythical Pokémon and overthrow it, wanting to create a universe anew.
