Maybe he felt overworked?
With so many jobs, he probably deserved time off.
Just my speculation.
Oh! And too much time in the spotlight (good or bad) can be quite harmful!
Though, I hope his time was good! <3
Something I find very interesting about Oras Wallace is that he says he used to, in years past, take place in contests. But not anymore... (Well. Not until that master rank beauty w/ Lisia. Which after he says he may consider again).
But still. How long ago, why may he have stopped, and what was his time in that spotlight like?
(of course, we can look to the anime about that, but still. Anime isn't quite the games.)
