Tailmon, the tiger ninja, was once a prized martial arts student from a small town beyond the Green Hills.

He was named to be the successor to being the master of the dojo he was taught at. However, there was a conflict that arised and he had to take care of.

When he returned his best friend, who became his rival after Tailmon was named as successor, was acting as the master of the dojo in Tailmon's absense. Tailmon tried to take his rightful place as master of the dojo, but his friend instead had Tailmon thrown out.

After awhile of wandering he met up with Red and became one of the best fighters on the renegade team.
