Bio[]
According to the Viva Piñata videogame, Professor Pester became who he is after getting fired by Jardiniero when he caught him, back when he was simply called Lester and when he was under Jardiniero's helper, mixing a pot of sour smelling and sticky red and black liquid that was intended to be used to make candy. Ultimately, Lester plotted his revenge by making Jardiniero think that he found a map that led to an island where lived a man who, supposedly, was the only person in the world to see a Dragonache Egg. While Jardiniero left with his wife, leaving his kids Leafos, Stardos, Storkos and Sidos in charge of the garden. While Jardiniero was away, Lester offered Stardos to help him with something. He told the boy he had a new red and black candy that was a short cut to attracting Piñata. So he invited Stardos over to his lair in the jungle to try them for himself. Ultimately, Stardos was never heard from again after that moment, and also after that moment, Lester ditched his identity and was henceforth known as Professor Pester. Pester then sent his gang of Ruffians to wreak Jardiniero's garden. Under his command, the Ruffians smashed Piñata homes and packed all the Piñata in a crate and sent them to him. Ever since that day, Pester has been known as the most wanted man on Piñata Island for all his evil deeds.
