Ditto (Egg Group)

Neri: /* Characteristics */

{{EggGroups}}
The '''Ditto egg group''' is one of the sixteen [[egg groups]]. It is the only group which has only one member.

==Characteristics==
Being that there is only one Pokémon, Pokémon in the Ditto group are all shapeless, purple blobs. However, they have the ability to breed with every member of every other egg group, but the "No eggs" egg group (In exception of Nidorina and Nidoqueen).

==Pokémon==
===Only in this egg group===

==Trivia==
*Pokémon in the Ditto group can breed with any Pokémon from any egg group, excluding the {{egg3|No eggs}}. Ditto also cannot breed with members of its own group.
**The exception to the above rule is that Pokémon in the Ditto group can also breed with {{p|Nidorina}} and {{p|Nidoqueen}}, both of which are part of the No eggs group.

== Project:MoveDex ==

Could I update the [[Bulbapedia:Project MoveDex]] page? It looks like a bit of a mess at the moment and I don't think users know what they're looking at for a template. I was thinking of rearranging it so that we have a section first of what it should look like in the edit box and out of the edit box, with each section described.

Hey

I'm really sorry about what happened yesterday. I didn't know how to check messages. I saw all of the warnings now, and I didn't understand that I'm not supposed to do what I did. The user "Ashura" is not mine, it's my friend's. She asked me to edit her userpage, because she didn't know how to. Is there a way to bring back what I did?

Neri ^^ - ''sort of unsigned comment from [[User:Neri|Neri]] ([[User talk:Neri|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Neri|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''
:can we bring it back? yes. but, you arent supposed to edit other peoples userpages. even friends. at the request of your friend, we can bring it back, but, you wont be getting your userspace privileges back unless you contribute to the mainspace a bit. thats just the rules. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 23:15, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

I'll ask her to comment here.
I really didn't know how to read my messages, or anything like that, but now I do. I would've stopped after the first warning. You said I could get my privileges back if I contribute to the mainspace. I'd love to do so, but, umm, what's the mainspace?
Sorry for being such a noob. I'm new to all of these terms and it'll take me some time to understand.

Thanks for everything, Neri - ''sort of unsigned comment from [[User:Neri|Neri]] ([[User talk:Neri|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Neri|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''
:the mainspace is basically any page that doesnt start with "User". an example would be any Pokemon page, like {{p|Magnemite}}, or any anime page, like [[EP030]], or any other page really, like [[Wattson]]. just make sure that anything you edit uses shortlinks, and doesnt link to a page that doesnt exist. for more information on how to edit, on [[User talk:Neri|your talk page]], the big welcome you have contains pretty much anything you should have a question about. and if that doesnt, the all knowing [[Manual of style]] should have it. if neither do, feel free to ask. also, you can sign your name by simply inputting four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>). -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 18:45, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

What did you write on my usertalk page..? It's hard to understand..

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], DCM!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:DCM/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
*There are certain restrictions on the content and amount of userspace content a user is allowed. For details, see the {{bp|Userspace policy}}
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].

Slow down on editing the <code>User:</code> namespace. There are only three userspace edits allowed per day, and you have gone over the limit.

DCM, your a Maverick, you think for yourself and dont do what other people tell you to do, you do what you think is best and what you think is right.

::DEFINITION: It can also mean a person who thinks independently, a lone dissenter, a non-conformist or rebel.

*A lone Dissenter: I dunno what that is

:Actually your thoughts are very nondescript. In the email you sent me(checked from phone) you excuese yur gay slander by saying everyoen ay your school says it and does it. Therefore, you dont think independitly, you arent man enough to tell the people its wrong, and theres no way in hell you are a rebel. What are you rebeling against?Nothing.Point in case--[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((Nag at Me!]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Edits))]]

No of course im not gonna stand up to people who bully him, im popular at school and I want it to stay that way.

I get in trouble because I am rebeling some of the time, obviously not all the time, but some of the time.

And I put tons of effort into that letter, I even got patfan to check it, was it not very good? I tried so hard! Honest, it took tons of effort, I tried my best, and it was completely heartfelt. Please I need a chance. --[[User:Guardian|Guardian]][[Special:Contributions/Guardian| of]][[User talk:Guardian| Earth]] |[[GSDS|SGMS 2010]]
:If you on stand up for him, you are neither a nonconformer nor a Rebel.

You know, the perfect admin candidate spends little time on talk pages and more time editing mainspace articles. Unfortunately for you, the one whom you think is the "perfect admin candidate" is the exact opposite.

== Excuse Me? ==

Excuse me?? You're saying that you ''don't'' like Dialga?!?! What, you like Palkia more? Come on. I hope that you at least like Umbreons, Empoleons, and Pikachus. Or did you just put that there because I'm a Democrat? [[User:Dialgarules|Dialgarules]] 01:34, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
:Why are you still on my Talk Page? You'll never make me like Palkia, how dare you insult Umbreon, and worst of all, YOU HATE PIKACHU????? What kind of sick trainer are you?

==Trivia==
*Infernape is the shortest final form of a [[starter Pokémon]] standing at only 3 feet and 11 inches (1.2 meters).
*Chimchar and Monferno have a flame on their tail, but Infernape has the flame on its head instead.
*Infernape is the only final form [[Sinnoh]] [[starter Pokémon]] not to have a unique [[Elemental types|type combination]].
*Infernape has the second-highest Speed of the starters (second only to {{p|Sceptile}}). Because of this, some consider Infernape to be a stronger version of {{p|Blaziken}}. However, it does have a lower {{stat|Attack}} base stat than Blaziken.
*Infernape shares the same [[species]] name as {{p|Charmeleon}} and {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Flareon}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. They are all known as Flame Pokémon.
* Infernape is the only fully [[evolution|evolved]] [[Sinnoh]] [[starter Pokémon]] to be affected by {{m|Sandstorm}}, as {{p|Empoleon}} is part {{type2|Steel}} and {{p|Torterra}} is part {{type2|Ground}}.
* Infernape is the first fully evolved form of a [[starter Pokémon]] to be used by a member of any [[Elite Four]]. (not counting the champion)
* {{m|Ice Punch}} is the only Elemental Punch that is impossible for Infernape to learn without the use of a cheating or hacking device.
* Infernape is the fastest Fire-type Pokemon, with a base speed of 108.
===Origin===
Infernape is based on a {{wp|monkey}}. It is also possible that he is based on {{wp|Sun Wukong}}, the Chinese mythical "Monkey King". The gold elements in his design seem to indicate this, and his name can also be linked to Japanese interpretations of the character (e.g. Son '''Goku'''). Its appearance is similar to the Colobus Monkeys of Africa. Infernape is most likely based off the martial art Muay Thai which uses all the limbs.

====Name origin====

==Trivia==
*Infernape is the shortest final form of a [[starter Pokémon]] standing at only 3 feet and 11 inches (1.2 meters).
*Chimchar and Monferno have a flame on their tail, but Infernape has the flame on its head instead.
*Infernape is the only final form [[Sinnoh]] [[starter Pokémon]] not to have a unique [[Elemental types|type combination]].
*Infernape has the second-highest Speed of the starters (second only to {{p|Sceptile}}). Because of this, some consider Infernape to be a stronger version of {{p|Blaziken}}. However, it does have a lower {{stat|Attack}} base stat than Blaziken.
*Infernape shares the same [[species]] name as {{p|Charmeleon}} and {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Flareon}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. They are all known as Flame Pokémon.
* Infernape is the only fully [[evolution|evolved]] [[Sinnoh]] [[starter Pokémon]] to be affected by {{m|Sandstorm}}, as {{p|Empoleon}} is part {{type2|Steel}} and {{p|Torterra}} is part {{type2|Ground}}.
* Infernape is the first fully evolved form of a [[starter Pokémon]] to be used by a member of any [[Elite Four]]. (not counting the champion)
* {{m|Ice Punch}} is the only Elemental Punch that is impossible for Infernape to learn without the use of a cheating or hacking device.
* Infernape is the fastest Fire-type Pokemon, with a base speed of 108.
===Origin===
Infernape is based on a {{wp|monkey}}. It is also possible that he is based on {{wp|Sun Wukong}}, the Chinese mythical "Monkey King". The gold elements in his design seem to indicate this, and his name can also be linked to Japanese interpretations of the character (e.g. Son '''Goku'''). Its appearance is similar to the Colobus Monkeys of Africa. Infernape is most likely based off the martial art Muay Thai which uses all the limbs.

====Name origin====
Goukazaru is a combination of 業火 ''gōka'', hellfire or inferno, and 猿 ''saru'', ape. Infernape is a combination of "inferno" and "ape". Its German name, Panferno, comes from {{tt|Schimpanse|chimpanzee}} and ''inferno''. Its French name, Simiabraz, comes from ''simia'', latin for monkey, and ''braise'', ember.

==Trivia==
*Infernape is the shortest final form of a [[starter Pokémon]] standing at only 3 feet and 11 inches (1.2 meters).
*Chimchar and Monferno have a flame on their tail, but Infernape has the flame on its head instead.
*Infernape is the only final form [[Sinnoh]] [[starter Pokémon]] not to have a unique [[Elemental types|type combination]].
*Infernape has the second-highest Speed of the starters (second only to {{p|Sceptile}}). Because of this, some consider Infernape to be a stronger version of {{p|Blaziken}}. However, it does have a lower {{stat|Attack}} base stat than Blaziken.
*Infernape shares the same [[species]] name as {{p|Charmeleon}} and {{p|Charizard}}, {{p|Flareon}}, and {{p|Moltres}}. They are all known as Flame Pokémon.
* Infernape is the only fully [[evolution|evolved]] [[Sinnoh]] [[starter Pokémon]] to be affected by {{m|Sandstorm}}, as {{p|Empoleon}} is part {{type2|Steel}} and {{p|Torterra}} is part {{type2|Ground}}.
* Infernape is the first fully evolved form of a [[starter Pokémon]] to be used by a member of any [[Elite Four]]. (not counting the champion)
* {{m|Ice Punch}} is the only Elemental Punch that is impossible for Infernape to learn without the use of a cheating or hacking device.
* Infernape is the fastest Fire-type Pokemon, with a base speed of 108.
===Origin===
Infernape is based on a {{wp|monkey}}. It is also possible that he is based on {{wp|Sun Wukong}}, the Chinese mythical "Monkey King". The gold elements in his design seem to indicate this, and his name can also be linked to Japanese interpretations of the character (e.g. Son '''Goku'''). Its appearance is similar to the Colobus Monkeys of Africa. Infernape is most likely based off the martial art Muay Thai which uses all the limbs.

====Name origin====
Goukazaru is a combination of 業火 ''gōka'', hellfire or inferno, and 猿 ''saru'', ape. Infernape is a combination of "inferno" and "ape". Its German name, Panferno, comes from {{tt|Schimpanse|chimpanzee}} and ''inferno''. Its French name, Simiabraz, comes from ''simia'', latin for monkey, and ''braise'', ember.

==In other languages==

==Trivia==
* Although its English and French names suggest that it is exclusively male, female Mr. Mime are just as common as males, and in {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, [[Sabrina]] herself has a female Mr. Mime as one of her Pokémon.
* The Mr. Mime obtained through an in-game trade in {{game|Red and Blue|s}} was nicknamed Marcel. This is possibly an homage to the late {{wp|Marcel Marceau}}. However, this was not kept in {{game|Yellow}} or {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}; the same Mr. Mime is nicknamed Miles and Mimien, in those games, respectively.
* There was a guest villain in an episode of {{wp|The Powerpuff Girls}} named "Mr. Mime".
* Mr. Mime originally had four fingers on its hands, but in [[Generation III]] it was given an extra finger. It should be noted that the anime version of Mr. Mime always had five fingers.
*Mr.Mime's color variations can be a reference to {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} or {{game|Red and Green|s}}: Its normal color is red, while its shiny variation is green.
*Because of the Hebrew dub of the anime, Mr Mime was often confused to be a [[water-type]] [[Pokemon]] in Israel, being that "Maim" in Hebrew means water, and his name was not changed in the dub.
===Origin===
It appears that it is based on a combination between a {{wp|clown}} and a mime - together with a popular pantomime, pretending to be trapped in {{wp|invisible box}}es.

Mr. Mime was probably inspired by ''{{wp|Marcel Marceau|le Mime Marceau}}'' the most famous French mime in the world.
====Name origin====
Mr. Mime's name simply refers to {{wp|mime}}s. Its Japanese name may be a combination of ''barrier'' and ''weird'' - indicating its ability to erect invisible walls - or ''barrier'' and ''barricade''. Its German name comes from the word ''pantomime''. Mr. Mime's French name is M. Mime (M. which is the official abbreviation of ''Monsieur'').

Water (type)

2008-08-04T15:44:40Z

Neri: /* Trivia */

{{ElementalTypes}}
{{TypeNotice|Water|みず|Mizu}}
Some notable [[Pokémon trainer]]s that specialize in the Water-type include [[Misty]] of [[Cerulean City]], [[Wallace]] and [[Juan]] of [[Sootopolis City]] and [[Crasher Wake]] of [[Pastoria City]].

==Statistical averages==

{{BaseStats|
HP=69 |
Attack=70 |
Defense=73 |
SpAtk=69 |
SpDef=67 |
Speed=62 }}

==Battle properties==
Water-type moves:
* Are super effective against: {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Rock}}
* Are not very effective against: {{t|Dragon}}, {{t|Grass}}, '''Water'''
* Have no effect against: None

Water-type Pokémon:
* Resist: {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Ice}}, {{t|Steel}}, '''Water'''
* Are weak to: {{t|Electric}}, {{t|Grass}}
* Have immunity to: None

==Characteristics==
Defensively, the Water-type is very strong when combined with high defensive stats. It has no weaknesses to any types which usually use [[physical move]]s, Grass-type attacks are rare and a Water-type Pokémon can simply switch away from any Electric-type attacks. However, switching is unnecessary if the Pokémon in question are part Ground like {{p|Quagsire}}, {{p|Swampert}}, {{p|Whiscash}}, and {{p|Gastrodon}}.

The Water-type is also useful offensively. A good amount of Water-type Pokémon can learn {{m|Ice Beam}} to deal with Dragon and Grass-types, which would make their resistance to Water-type attacks irrelevant. It can be extremely useful to be super-effective against Ground- and {{type2|Rock}}s when traveling through caves, etc. As a result of these advantages, as well as having to get through water routes using {{m|Surf}}, most trainers usually have at least one Water-type in their [[party]].

==Trivia==
* Of all seventeen types, the Water-type is the most abundant, with 92 Pokémon species, nearly 19% of the entire known Pokédex, being of the Water-type. This probably reflects all the different species of lifeforms that inhabit the real world's oceans, lakes and rivers.
* All [[Generation I]] Water-type Pokémon are weak to {{t|Electric}} moves because there were no dual {{t|Dragon}}-, {{t|Electric}}-, or {{type2|Grass}}s to neutralize the weakness and dual Water/{{type2|Ground}} Pokémon were not introduced until [[Generation II]].
* Every main protagonist in the anime (with the obvious exception of [[Max]]) has had at least one Water-type Pokémon. {{Ash}} has {{AP|Squirtle}}, {{AP|Kingler}}, {{AP|Totodile}}, {{AP|Corphish}} and {{AP|Buizel}}, all of [[Misty]]'s Pokémon except {{TP|Misty|Togetic}} and {{TP|Misty|Azurill}} are Water-types, [[Brock]] has {{TP|Brock|Ludicolo}} and {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}}, {{Tracey}} has {{TP|Tracey|Marill}}, {{an|May}} has {{TP|May|Wartortle}}, {{an|Dawn}} has {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and used to have [[Buizel]], [[Jessie]] had {{TP|Jessie|Shellder}} and {{TP|Jessie|Magikarp}}, and James had {{TP|James|Gyarados}}.
* Although [[Misty]] stats in the games that she prefers an all out offense using water Pokémon, most Water Pokémon in the game usually tend to have higher defenses, gaining the title "Bulky Water" Pokémon. Some examples include Slowbro, Slowking, Suicune, and Gyarados.

{{TypeNotice|Rock|いわ|Iwa}}
Notable trainers that specialize in the Rock-type include [[Brock]] of [[Pewter City]], [[Roxanne]] of [[Rustboro City]] and [[Roark]] of [[Oreburgh City]]. They are, notably, all the first [[Gym Leader]] encountered in their respective regions.

==Statistical averages==

{{BaseStats|
HP=63 |
Attack=81 |
Defense=112 |
SpAtk=57 |
SpDef=71 |
Speed=48 }}

==Battle properties==
Rock-type moves:
*Are super-effective against: {{t|Bug}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Ice}}
*Are not very effective against: {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Steel}}
* Have no effect against: None
Rock-type Pokémon:
*Resist: {{t|Normal}}, {{t|Fire}}, {{t|Flying}}, {{t|Poison}}
*Are weak to: {{t|Fighting}}, {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Steel}}, {{t|Water}}
*Have immunity to: None

==Characteristics==
Defensively, the Rock-type is outstanding. However, they are weak to five types, two of which are Special-based (until [[Generation IV]]), an area Rock-types are not particularly strong in. On the other hand, they are also strong against four types. Compounding this large number of weaknesses is the fact that many Rock types are dual-types with {{t|Ground}} or {{t|Water}}, giving them a large vulnerability to {{type2|Grass}} moves. Dual-typed with {{t|Steel}} also gives the Rock type a large disadvantage with {{t|Ground}}, although due to their high defense they will still be highly resistant to most Ground attacks.

Offensively, the Rock-type isn't as reliable. They hit the Flying-type for super-effective damage, which is good because the Flying-type is common in the games. The Rock-type also has powerful moves like {{m|Stone Edge}}. But overall, the Rock-type is not a very good choice for offense, since the types it is strong against are sometimes paired with the types it is not very effective against, e.g. {{p|Infernape}}, {{p|Heracross}} and {{p|Skarmory}}, all of which are commonly used in the metagame.

==Trivia==
* If there were a hypothetical Pokémon of all 17 types, it would only be weak to Rock-type moves. However it's possible to create more weaknesses by using moves like {{m|Foresight}} to remove immunities.
* There were no pure Rock-type Pokémon until [[Generation II]].
* No [[Physical move|physical]] Rock-type move is 100% accurate.
* In the first season of the [[Pokémon anime]] and during much of [[Generation I]], the Rock-type was often wrongly assumed to be unaffected by {{type2|Electric}} attacks. This was likely due to the fact that at the time, the only Rock-types that were not part Ground were the {{cat|Fossil Pokémon}}.
* The Rock-type is tied with the {{type2|Grass}} for the largest number of weaknesses when unpaired, with five: {{t|Grass}}, {{t|Water}}, {{t|Ground}}, {{t|Fighting}}, and {{t|Steel}}.

'''Brock''' (Japanese: '''タケシ''' ''Takeshi'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Pewter Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Boulder}} to {{pkmn|trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in training {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon.

==In the anime==
[[Image:BrockOriginal.png|thumb|left|Brock in the original series.]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Brock is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] who is a {{ashfr|close friend}} and traveling companion of {{Ash}}. His Japanese voice actor is うえだゆうじ ''[[Yūji Ueda]]'', his English voice actors are [[Eric Stuart]] ({{4Kids}} dub) and [[Bill Rogers]] ({{PUSA}} dub), his Brazilian voice actor is [[Alfredo Rollo]], and his Latin-American voice actor has been ''Gabriel Gama'' from the beginning. Some notes on official sketches of his character set his age at 15 at the start of the series.

He originally trained {{type2|Rock}} [[Pokémon]], but has, since [[EP006|the second episode he appeared in]], diversified. He is an experienced cook and caretaker by nature, so he always makes scrumptious food both [[Pokémon food|for Pokémon]] and for humans. One of his best known character traits is that he falls in love with every pretty woman he meets, particularly [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]]. He has always held a supporting role in the series, usually contributing more in terms of wisdom and comedic antics than the action and {{pkmn|battle}}s of the series.

Early on, he showed that he carries around a {{badge|Boulder}} for identification. He also has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Kanto]] region, though he only used it once, as well as one for [[Hoenn]] which was required to watch a contest there. He should still have a [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Heavy Ball]], given to him by [[Kurt]] [[EP144|back in Johto]], but this has apparently been forgotten.

Brock has had two notable musical appearances. One is the Japanese ending theme タケシのパラダイス ''[[Takeshi's Paradise]]'', which is about his love for women and his determination to find love despite often appearing foolish and getting heartbroken. There is a running joke about him singing this song often in the anime, since it's the only song he knows. The other is the [[Pokémon Karaokémon]] song ''[[Two Perfect Girls]]'', which is about his love of both Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy.

===Appearance===
[[Image:TakeshiAG.png|thumb|right|Brock in the Advanced Generation series]]
Brock's most notable feature about his appearance is that his eyes naturally appear closed. The rare times we see them open are when they are forced open unnaturally: from a hit with {{AP|Charmander}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}} in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', when being hit in the back of the head by {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}'s tail in ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]'', and when he makes a face for {{AP|Larvitar}} in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]''.

He also has tan skin, notably darker than the skin of any other major character in the series.

Brock is the tallest of [[Ash's friends]], and the closest to looking like an adult. Next to actual adult characters, however, it is clear that he is still a teenager.

Not counting temporary outfits, he has worn [[List of clothing in the anime#Brock|three different outfits]] over the span of the anime, all of which have had the colors orange, green, and brown in them.

===Character===
[[Image:Brock with his eyes open.GIF|thumb|left|180px|Brock with his eyes open.]]
Brock is considered the most mature, wise and level-headed of the main characters, and he is arguably the most intelligent character as well. He often acts as an older brother and caretaker to the other characters and a voice of reason in disputes. He will usually place others before him and will help and support his friends even against his better judgment or at his own expense. While he is not shown to battle often, he can understand the situations and strategies in any [[Pokémon battle]], and often explains them to the other characters, probably due to the fact that he was once a [[Gym Leader]]. His wisdom is possibly derived from how observant he is; he can tell just by sight how a Pokémon is feeling and spot the differences between the various [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]].

Brock always carries books and maps with him, and thus is usually the character who knows where the group is headed and what they can do when they get there, though in [[Advanced Generation series|Advanced Generation]] this role was mostly taken over by the [[PokéNav]]. He also carries a lot of other supplies, such as [[potion]]s and cookware, as well as practical tools like a brush and pocket knife; in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'', the extent of his preparedness and comically large capacity of his [[bag]] was demonstrated, as he pulled out a table and full tea set out of his backpack. He is a domestic, and grooms not only his Pokémon but also those of his friends with whom he travels. He handles all the cooking and cleaning for his friends.

Despite this, all his maturity and rationality leaves him completely at the sight of a beautiful woman, as he falls in love with every pretty girl he meets. Brock has a desperate need for female companionship which grows worse as he fails to gain it. He will do anything and everything he thinks will impress women, which inevitably ends with his heart being broken every time. A few women have shown interest in him as well, such as [[Wilhemina]], [[Temacu]] and [[Pike Queen Lucy|Lucy]], but most do not notice him or are not interested. No matter how many times he is disappointed, though, Brock remains determined to find a girl to start a relationship with, and has indicated several times he would stop traveling with Ash and stay with the girl if this happened. This behavior tends to wear on the nerves of other characters, and [[Misty]] and [[Max]] have both commonly dragged Brock away from women by his ear. Some of Brock's own Pokémon, most notably {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, have attacked him for getting too flirtatious with women.

His goals have played a passive role at best in his character's activity and development. Unlike other characters, who aspire to achieve and excel in competitive fields like [[Pokémon Training]] and [[Pokémon Contest]]s, his aim to become a great Pokémon Breeder is a quiet one and thus does not get showcased frequently. His other goal, to find a girlfriend, is similar to [[Team Rocket]]'s quest to capture {{AP|Pikachu}} in that both are for comedy and thus doomed to fail. His role has always been purely one as support for other main characters, though some fans find this disappointing and want him to take a more active role in the series.

===History===
[[Image:TakeshiDP.png|left|thumb|Brock in the Diamond and Pearl series]]
Not much is known about his early childhood, except that his first Pokémon was his {{TP|Brock|Onix}}, which he received as a gift at the age of 10. Sometime after, his father, {{an|Flint}}, left home to become a great {{pkmn|Trainer}}. When he never returned, his mother, [[Lola]], left them as well, leaving Brock to take care of {{Brocksib|his siblings}}, as well as their house and [[Pewter Gym]], by himself (though the English version of ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' has Flint claim she died, and some speculate he was lying). However, Flint eventually returned home considering himself a failure, and instead of returning to his family he donned a disguise and sold rocks as souvenirs at the edge of town. After Brock awarded Ash the Boulder Badge, Flint came forward and confessed who he was. Flint took on the responsibilities of the Pewter Gym and his family, leaving Brock free to journey with Ash and [[Misty]].

Brock only became the Gym Leader because he felt it was his responsibility, and he admitted to Ash that he would rather care for Pokémon than battle them. It is his dream to become a great breeder, and when Flint took back control of the Gym, Brock was allowed to start following this dream. Most notably, he took care of a {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} that belonged to a breeder named [[Suzy]]. Shortly before Vulpix was returned, Brock used it in a [[Pokémon Beauty Contest]].

Brock was also able to meet and make advances towards the many beautiful women he met. At first, he was more casual about approaching women, such as the [[Officer Jenny]] in [[Cerulean City]], and more modest as well, such as when he met [[Melanie]]. However, he became more open and passionate towards almost all single young women as time progressed.

Brock briefly left the show during the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands saga]] to work for [[Professor Ivy]] on [[Valencia Island]] and so is only seen in a couple of cameos in the [[Pokémon 2000|second movie]]. While there, something happened that will probably remain secret as Brock will only huddle and say "that name" whenever he is asked about it. (Brock does mention his work for her in ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', though this line was added in the dub.) After this incident, Brock returned to Kanto where he was found by [[Delia Ketchum]], who helped him to regain his strength. Brock then became a rival to [[Mimey]] until he rejoined Ash and Misty as the three traveled to [[Johto]]. They stayed together for the entire region, but at the end of this journey, the three went their separate ways, with Brock's help requested at home by his father.

Upon his return home, Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the gym, turning the Rock-type haven into a brightly decorated {{type2|Water}} den. Brock battled her for the honor of Rock-types and won, promising his brother [[Forrest]] that he would become Gym Leader someday.

After that, Brock returned to follow Ash through [[Hoenn]], along with their new friends {{an|May}} and [[Max]], and then through Kanto again as Ash took on the [[Battle Frontier]]. He left extremely briefly when the Advanced Generation dissolved to visit his home, and is now traveling with Ash and {{an|Dawn}} in [[Sinnoh]].

Brock is among the longest-lived main characters in the anime, only being absent from the Orange Islands season and thus ranked under only the permanent characters of {{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Because of this, some fans believe he is too worn-out as a character and should be removed from the cast. Others believe he has established himself as a permanent character of the main cast, and do not see him being removed from the cast any time in the near future.

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimoribrockoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Brock from {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
Brock's title is "The Rock-Solid Pokémon Trainer". Brock is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses Rock-type Pokémon to complement this.

Brock is one of the few truly serious professional Pokémon trainers in the Pewter City area. He's tough, people respect him, and most admire him. Supposedly, it's hard to get him to laugh or drop his serious demeanor, but when he does, he can't stop.

Brock likes to dig for [[fossil]]s in [[Mt. Moon]], which is possibly how he ended up getting a {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Omastar}} in [[Generation II]].

In each game, there is only one other trainer in his gym: a [[Camper]], whose name is Jerry in [[Generation II]] and Liam in [[Generation III]]. This trainer usually isn't devoted to the Rock-type, and may use pure {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon like {{p|Sandshrew}} and {{p|Diglett}}.

In addition to the Boulder Badge, Brock gives out [[TM34]] for {{m|Bide}} in the [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}}. In their [[Generation III]] remakes, he gives out [[TM39]] for {{m|Rock Tomb}} instead. In [[Generation II]], he doesn't give out a [[TM]]. In both the Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, one Trainer will not allow for trainers to pass onto {{rt|3}} until they have defeated Brock. Instead, when trainers try to leave, he will lead them all the way back to the Pewter Gym.

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
[[Image:Brock.PNG|right|frame|Brock]]
Brock debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'' of the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Special)|Red, Green & Blue]] chapter, however he is mentioned by {{Special|Green}} in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]''. To access to Brock a trainer must win several rounds of battles against special trainers of the Gym, every single one of those battles are watched by him from a special room. In this round Brock is a shirtless Gym Leader who has for main Pokémon an Onix and for secondary a Graveler and a Geodude.

Brock is a brave trainer and he assists [[Erika]] and [[Misty]] in their {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Team Rocket]]. He also gave {{Special|Yellow}} a {{p|Graveler}}.

Brock works as a security guard at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].

===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
Since the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] is based heavily on the {{pkmn|anime}}, Brock's appearances in it are mostly comparable to his anime appearances. However, he is not constantly traveling with Ash in the manga.

In [[DP01-04|Haunting My Dreams]], there are hints about him being [[MangaShipping|in a relationship]] with [[Sabrina]].

==In the TCG==
There is a [[Theme Deck]] named for Brock in the {{TCG|Gym Heroes}} expansion. It has two versions,{{TCG|Brock|English}} and [[Brock (TCG - Japan)|Japanese]].

==In the TFG==
{{TFG ID|Next Quest|Brock|39}} appears as a rare trainer figure in the launch set, {{TFG|Next Quest}}, of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

==Trivia==
*Most official sources do not give Brock a last name. However, several sources suggest that in the anime, his last name is Harrison. In the July 2006 issue of {{wp|K-Zone}} Magazine, [[Eric Stuart]] was interviewed and stated that Brock's last name is '''Harrison'''.
*Brock has the most airtime out of all of Ash's companions, being present in every season except for the [[Orange Islands]] saga.
*In the anime, Brock's house is located directly behind the Pewter Gym. His room is only seen briefly in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'', but what is seen of it shows that it is decorated in a traditional Japanese style, including {{wp|fusuma}}, a {{wp|tansu}} chest, and a {{wp|futon}} for a bed.
*Brock owns two {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, {{TP|Brock|Crobat}} and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, whose names both start with ''Cro-''.
*Until the capture of Bonsly and the evolution of Onix, Brock had owned an equal amount of {{type2|Rock}} and {{type2|Water}} Pokémon. This is ironic considering that he was against having a joint Rock/Water type gym in ''[[H001|A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together!]]''
*Brock is currently the only main character of the anime with {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, owning two, {{TP|Brock|Steelix}} and {{TP|Brock|Forretress}}. If [[Dawn's Piplup]] reaches its final form, however, this will no longer be the case, as {{p|Empoleon}} is {{2t|Water|Steel}}.
*Brock is the fourth main character to own a Pokémon hatched from an egg. The first, of course, was [[Misty]] with {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and later {{TP|Misty|Azurill}}, the second was {{Ash}} with {{TP|Ash|Phanpy}}, and the third was {{an|May}} with {{TP|May|Eevee}}.
*Brock is one of three of [[Ash's friends]] who has had their father make an appearance in the anime. The others are {{an|May}} and [[Max]], who are brother and sister. Coincidentally, both fathers are Gym Leaders.
*Brock captured a new Pokémon sooner after his debut than any other main character, even Ash, by capturing [[Brock's Crobat|Zubat]] in [[EP006]]. Comparatively:
**Ash made his first capture in [[EP003]] (debut [[EP001]] - 2 episodes)
**Dawn made her first capture in [[DP009]] (debut [[DP001]] - 8 episodes)
**May made her first capture in [[AG014]] (debut [[AG001]] - 13 episodes)
**Tracey made his first capture in [[EP097]] (debut [[EP084]] - 13 episodes)
**Misty made her first capture in [[EP019]] (debut [[EP001]] - 18 episodes)
*Brock's Advanced Generation and Diamond & Pearl stock art (both of which are seen in the anime section of this article) use the same pose, changing only his outfit.
*Brock has been shown to be able to identify when women are really crossdressing men in disguise by having a peculiar lack of attraction to them. A significant exception to this is Ash, who in the guise of [[Ashley]] was able to slip through Brock's radar by being disguised as a woman younger than he would be attracted to.
*Brock has owned four Pokémon [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|whose evolutions debuted in a different generation]] than that Pokémon. ({{p|Golbat}}, {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, and {{p|Happiny}}). Of the four, three of them have evolved so far.
*When the [[Advanced Generation series]] started, Brock brought only his {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} with him. Forretress is not in the [[Hoenn Dex]].
*Despite starting out as a Rock-type Gym Leader, of all the Pokémon Brock currently owns, only two are of the Rock-type, {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} and {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. Currently, only one of them is [[party|with him]], the other being back in [[Pewter City]].
*Brock is the only one out of all of [[Ash's friends]] to have owned at least one Pokémon from each of the four generations.

===Interview with Hidaka about Brock's short absence from the anime===
There had been some debate between members of the fanbase in regards to why Brock was removed from the main cast during the Orange Islands arc, why [[Tracey Sketchit]] was created, and why Brock returned later. In a [http://www.pokebeach.com/news/0708/second-pokemon-interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-many-interesting-points recent interview] with former Pokémon anime director and storyboard artist [[Masamitsu Hidaka]], he stated his own reason why Brock was removed from the cast and why he eventually returned. He (or, rather his translator) revealed that the true reason they replaced Brock is because, once they realized Pokémon was going global, there was a chance that Americans, if not anyone else outside of Japan, would view Brock as a racist stereotype because of his eyes (even though there wasn't an actual complaint yet). So they created a "tall, anglo-saxon looking person to be on the safe side". They later replaced Tracey with Brock again once they realized that no one really cared as to what Brock looks like, and actually enjoyed his character.

However, this was only stated by Hidaka and not by any other staff member.

'''Brock''' (Japanese: '''タケシ''' ''Takeshi'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Pewter City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Pewter Gym]]. He hands out the {{Badge|Boulder}} to {{pkmn|trainer}}s who defeat him. He specializes in training {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon.

==In the anime==
[[Image:BrockOriginal.png|thumb|left|Brock in the original series.]]
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Brock is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] who is a {{ashfr|close friend}} and traveling companion of {{Ash}}. His Japanese voice actor is うえだゆうじ ''[[Yūji Ueda]]'', his English voice actors are [[Eric Stuart]] ({{4Kids}} dub) and [[Bill Rogers]] ({{PUSA}} dub), his Brazilian voice actor is [[Alfredo Rollo]], and his Latin-American voice actor has been ''Gabriel Gama'' from the beginning. Some notes on official sketches of his character set his age at 15 at the start of the series.

He originally trained {{type2|Rock}} [[Pokémon]], but has, since [[EP006|the second episode he appeared in]], diversified. He is an experienced cook and caretaker by nature, so he always makes scrumptious food both [[Pokémon food|for Pokémon]] and for humans. One of his best known character traits is that he falls in love with every pretty woman he meets, particularly [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]]. He has always held a supporting role in the series, usually contributing more in terms of wisdom and comedic antics than the action and {{pkmn|battle}}s of the series.

Early on, he showed that he carries around a {{badge|Boulder}} for identification. He also has a [[Contest Pass]] for the [[Kanto]] region, though he only used it once, as well as one for [[Hoenn]] which was required to watch a contest there. He should still have a [[Poké Ball#Generation II Poké Balls|Heavy Ball]], given to him by [[Kurt]] [[EP144|back in Johto]], but this has apparently been forgotten.

Brock has had two notable musical appearances. One is the Japanese ending theme タケシのパラダイス ''[[Takeshi's Paradise]]'', which is about his love for women and his determination to find love despite often appearing foolish and getting heartbroken. There is a running joke about him singing this song often in the anime, since it's the only song he knows. The other is the [[Pokémon Karaokémon]] song ''[[Two Perfect Girls]]'', which is about his love of both Officer Jenny and Nurse Joy.

===Appearance===
[[Image:TakeshiAG.png|thumb|right|Brock in the Advanced Generation series]]
Brock's most notable feature about his appearance is that his eyes naturally appear closed. The rare times we see them open are when they are forced open unnaturally: from a hit with {{AP|Charmander}}'s {{m|Flamethrower}} in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', when being hit in the back of the head by {{TP|Jessie|Arbok}}'s tail in ''[[EP050|Who Gets to Keep Togepi?]]'', and when he makes a face for {{AP|Larvitar}} in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]''.

He also has tan skin, notably darker than the skin of any other major character in the series.

Brock is the tallest of [[Ash's friends]], and the closest to looking like an adult. Next to actual adult characters, however, it is clear that he is still a teenager.

Not counting temporary outfits, he has worn [[List of clothing in the anime#Brock|three different outfits]] over the span of the anime, all of which have had the colors orange, green, and brown in them.

===Character===
[[Image:Brock with his eyes open.GIF|thumb|left|180px|Brock with his eyes open.]]
Brock is considered the most mature, wise and level-headed of the main characters, and he is arguably the most intelligent character as well. He often acts as an older brother and caretaker to the other characters and a voice of reason in disputes. He will usually place others before him and will help and support his friends even against his better judgment or at his own expense. While he is not shown to battle often, he can understand the situations and strategies in any [[Pokémon battle]], and often explains them to the other characters, probably due to the fact that he was once a [[Gym Leader]]. His wisdom is possibly derived from how observant he is; he can tell just by sight how a Pokémon is feeling and spot the differences between the various [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]].

Brock always carries books and maps with him, and thus is usually the character who knows where the group is headed and what they can do when they get there, though in [[Advanced Generation series|Advanced Generation]] this role was mostly taken over by the [[PokéNav]]. He also carries a lot of other supplies, such as [[potion]]s and cookware, as well as practical tools like a brush and pocket knife; in ''[[EP009|The School of Hard Knocks]]'', the extent of his preparedness and comically large capacity of his [[bag]] was demonstrated, as he pulled out a table and full tea set out of his backpack. He is a domestic, and grooms not only his Pokémon but also those of his friends with whom he travels. He handles all the cooking and cleaning for his friends.

Despite this, all his maturity and rationality leaves him completely at the sight of a beautiful woman, as he falls in love with every pretty girl he meets. Brock has a desperate need for female companionship which grows worse as he fails to gain it. He will do anything and everything he thinks will impress women, which inevitably ends with his heart being broken every time. A few women have shown interest in him as well, such as [[Wilhemina]], [[Temacu]] and [[Pike Queen Lucy|Lucy]], but most do not notice him or are not interested. No matter how many times he is disappointed, though, Brock remains determined to find a girl to start a relationship with, and has indicated several times he would stop traveling with Ash and stay with the girl if this happened. This behavior tends to wear on the nerves of other characters, and [[Misty]] and [[Max]] have both commonly dragged Brock away from women by his ear. Some of Brock's own Pokémon, most notably {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, have attacked him for getting too flirtatious with women.

His goals have played a passive role at best in his character's activity and development. Unlike other characters, who aspire to achieve and excel in competitive fields like [[Pokémon Training]] and [[Pokémon Contest]]s, his aim to become a great Pokémon Breeder is a quiet one and thus does not get showcased frequently. His other goal, to find a girlfriend, is similar to [[Team Rocket]]'s quest to capture {{AP|Pikachu}} in that both are for comedy and thus doomed to fail. His role has always been purely one as support for other main characters, though some fans find this disappointing and want him to take a more active role in the series.

===History===
[[Image:TakeshiDP.png|left|thumb|Brock in the Diamond and Pearl series]]
Not much is known about his early childhood, except that his first Pokémon was his {{TP|Brock|Onix}}, which he received as a gift at the age of 10. Sometime after, his father, {{an|Flint}}, left home to become a great {{pkmn|Trainer}}. When he never returned, his mother, [[Lola]], left them as well, leaving Brock to take care of {{Brocksib|his siblings}}, as well as their house and [[Pewter Gym]], by himself (though the English version of ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' has Flint claim she died, and some speculate he was lying). However, Flint eventually returned home considering himself a failure, and instead of returning to his family he donned a disguise and sold rocks as souvenirs at the edge of town. After Brock awarded Ash the Boulder Badge, Flint came forward and confessed who he was. Flint took on the responsibilities of the Pewter Gym and his family, leaving Brock free to journey with Ash and [[Misty]].

Brock only became the Gym Leader because he felt it was his responsibility, and he admitted to Ash that he would rather care for Pokémon than battle them. It is his dream to become a great breeder, and when Flint took back control of the Gym, Brock was allowed to start following this dream. Most notably, he took care of a {{TP|Brock|Vulpix}} that belonged to a breeder named [[Suzy]]. Shortly before Vulpix was returned, Brock used it in a [[Pokémon Beauty Contest]].

Brock was also able to meet and make advances towards the many beautiful women he met. At first, he was more casual about approaching women, such as the [[Officer Jenny]] in [[Cerulean City]], and more modest as well, such as when he met [[Melanie]]. However, he became more open and passionate towards almost all single young women as time progressed.

Brock briefly left the show during the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands saga]] to work for [[Professor Ivy]] on [[Valencia Island]] and so is only seen in a couple of cameos in the [[Pokémon 2000|second movie]]. While there, something happened that will probably remain secret as Brock will only huddle and say "that name" whenever he is asked about it. (Brock does mention his work for her in ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', though this line was added in the dub.) After this incident, Brock returned to Kanto where he was found by [[Delia Ketchum]], who helped him to regain his strength. Brock then became a rival to [[Mimey]] until he rejoined Ash and Misty as the three traveled to [[Johto]]. They stayed together for the entire region, but at the end of this journey, the three went their separate ways, with Brock's help requested at home by his father.

Upon his return home, Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the gym, turning the Rock-type haven into a brightly decorated {{type2|Water}} den. Brock battled her for the honor of Rock-types and won, promising his brother [[Forrest]] that he would become Gym Leader someday.

After that, Brock returned to follow Ash through [[Hoenn]], along with their new friends {{an|May}} and [[Max]], and then through Kanto again as Ash took on the [[Battle Frontier]]. He left extremely briefly when the Advanced Generation dissolved to visit his home, and is now traveling with Ash and {{an|Dawn}} in [[Sinnoh]].

Brock is among the longest-lived main characters in the anime, only being absent from the Orange Islands season and thus ranked under only the permanent characters of {{Ash}}, {{AP|Pikachu}}, [[Jessie]], [[James]], and {{MTR}}. Because of this, some fans believe he is too worn-out as a character and should be removed from the cast. Others believe he has established himself as a permanent character of the main cast, and do not see him being removed from the cast any time in the near future.

==In the games==
[[Image:Sugimoribrockoriginal.png|thumb|Art of Brock from {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]
Brock's title is "The Rock-Solid Pokémon Trainer". Brock is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses Rock-type Pokémon to complement this.

Brock is one of the few truly serious professional Pokémon trainers in the Pewter City area. He's tough, people respect him, and most admire him. Supposedly, it's hard to get him to laugh or drop his serious demeanor, but when he does, he can't stop.

Brock likes to dig for [[fossil]]s in [[Mt. Moon]], which is possibly how he ended up getting a {{p|Kabutops}} and {{p|Omastar}} in [[Generation II]].

In each game, there is only one other trainer in his gym: a [[Camper]], whose name is Jerry in [[Generation II]] and Liam in [[Generation III]]. This trainer usually isn't devoted to the Rock-type, and may use pure {{type2|Ground}} Pokémon like {{p|Sandshrew}} and {{p|Diglett}}.

In addition to the Boulder Badge, Brock gives out [[TM34]] for {{m|Bide}} in the [[Generation I]] {{pkmn|games}}. In their [[Generation III]] remakes, he gives out [[TM39]] for {{m|Rock Tomb}} instead. In [[Generation II]], he doesn't give out a [[TM]]. In both the Generation I games and their Generation III remakes, one Trainer will not allow for trainers to pass onto {{rt|3}} until they have defeated Brock. Instead, when trainers try to leave, he will lead them all the way back to the Pewter Gym.

''"So, you're here. I'm Brock. I'm Pewter's Gym Leader. My rock-hard willpower is evident even in my Pokémon. My Pokémon are all rock hard, and have true-grit determination. That's right - my Pokémon are all the Rock-type! Fuhaha! You're going to challenge me knowing that you'll lose? That's the Trainer's honor that compels you to challenge me. Fine, then! Show me your best!"''

''"I took you for granted, and so I lost. As proof of your victory, I confer on you this...the official Pokémon League Boulder Badge."''

''"There are all kind of Trainers in this huge world of ours. You appear to be very gifted as a Pokémon Trainer. So let me make a suggestion. Go to the [[Cerulean Gym|Gym in Cerulean]] and test your abilities."''

====[[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions]]====
''"Wow, it's not often that we get a challenger from Johto. I'm Brock, the Pewter Gym Leader. I'm an expert on Rock-type Pokémon. My Pokémon are impervious to most physical attacks. You'll have a hard time inflicting any damage. Come on!"''

''"Your Pokémon's powerful attacks overcame my rock-hard defense... You're stronger than I expected... Go ahead--take this Badge."''

===In the Pokémon Special manga===
[[Image:Brock.PNG|right|frame|Brock]]
Brock debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix is On!]]'' of the [[Red, Green & Blue chapter (Special)|Red, Green & Blue]] chapter, however he is mentioned by {{Special|Green}} in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]''. To access to Brock a trainer must win several rounds of battles against special trainers of the Gym, every single one of those battles are watched by him from a special room. In this round Brock is a shirtless Gym Leader who has for main Pokémon an Onix and for secondary a Graveler and a Geodude.

Brock is a brave trainer and he assists [[Erika]] and [[Misty]] in their {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Team Rocket]]. He also gave {{Special|Yellow}} a {{p|Graveler}}.

Brock works as a security guard at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].

===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
Since the [[Electric Tale of Pikachu]] is based heavily on the {{pkmn|anime}}, Brock's appearances in it are mostly comparable to his anime appearances. However, he is not constantly traveling with Ash in the manga.

In [[DP01-04|Haunting My Dreams]], there are hints about him being [[MangaShipping|in a relationship]] with [[Sabrina]].

==In the TCG==
There is a [[Theme Deck]] named for Brock in the {{TCG|Gym Heroes}} expansion. It has two versions,{{TCG|Brock|English}} and [[Brock (TCG - Japan)|Japanese]].

==In the TFG==
{{TFG ID|Next Quest|Brock|39}} appears as a rare trainer figure in the launch set, {{TFG|Next Quest}}, of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

==Trivia==
*Most official sources do not give Brock a last name. However, several sources suggest that in the anime, his last name is Harrison. In the July 2006 issue of {{wp|K-Zone}} Magazine, [[Eric Stuart]] was interviewed and stated that Brock's last name is '''Harrison'''.
*Brock has the most airtime out of all of Ash's companions, being present in every season except for the [[Orange Islands]] saga.
*In the anime, Brock's house is located directly behind the Pewter Gym. His room is only seen briefly in ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'', but what is seen of it shows that it is decorated in a traditional Japanese style, including {{wp|fusuma}}, a {{wp|tansu}} chest, and a {{wp|futon}} for a bed.
*Brock owns two {{type2|Poison}} Pokémon, {{TP|Brock|Crobat}} and {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}, whose names both start with ''Cro-''.
*Until the capture of Bonsly and the evolution of Onix, Brock had owned an equal amount of {{type2|Rock}} and {{type2|Water}} Pokémon. This is ironic considering that he was against having a joint Rock/Water type gym in ''[[H001|A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together!]]''
*Brock is currently the only main character of the anime with {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon, owning two, {{TP|Brock|Steelix}} and {{TP|Brock|Forretress}}. If [[Dawn's Piplup]] reaches its final form, however, this will no longer be the case, as {{p|Empoleon}} is {{2t|Water|Steel}}.
*Brock is the fourth main character to own a Pokémon hatched from an egg. The first, of course, was [[Misty]] with {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} and later {{TP|Misty|Azurill}}, the second was {{Ash}} with {{TP|Ash|Phanpy}}, and the third was {{an|May}} with {{TP|May|Eevee}}.
*Brock is one of three of [[Ash's friends]] who has had their father make an appearance in the anime. The others are {{an|May}} and [[Max]], who are brother and sister. Coincidentally, both fathers are Gym Leaders.
*Brock captured a new Pokémon sooner after his debut than any other main character, even Ash, by capturing [[Brock's Crobat|Zubat]] in [[EP006]]. Comparatively:
**Ash made his first capture in [[EP003]] (debut [[EP001]] - 2 episodes)
**Dawn made her first capture in [[DP009]] (debut [[DP001]] - 8 episodes)
**May made her first capture in [[AG014]] (debut [[AG001]] - 13 episodes)
**Tracey made his first capture in [[EP097]] (debut [[EP084]] - 13 episodes)
**Misty made her first capture in [[EP019]] (debut [[EP001]] - 18 episodes)
*Brock's Advanced Generation and Diamond & Pearl stock art (both of which are seen in the anime section of this article) use the same pose, changing only his outfit.
*Brock has been shown to be able to identify when women are really crossdressing men in disguise by having a peculiar lack of attraction to them. A significant exception to this is Ash, who in the guise of [[Ashley]] was able to slip through Brock's radar by being disguised as a woman younger than he would be attracted to.
*Brock has owned four Pokémon [[List of Pokémon with cross-generational evolutions|whose evolutions debuted in a different generation]] than that Pokémon. ({{p|Golbat}}, {{p|Onix}}, {{p|Bonsly}}, and {{p|Happiny}}). Of the four, three of them have evolved so far.
*When the [[Advanced Generation series]] started, Brock brought only his {{TP|Brock|Forretress}} with him. Forretress is not in the [[Hoenn Dex]].
*Despite starting out as a Rock-type Gym Leader, of all the Pokémon Brock currently owns, only two are of the Rock-type, {{TP|Brock|Geodude}} and {{TP|Brock|Sudowoodo}}. Currently, only one of them is [[party|with him]], the other being back in [[Pewter City]].
*Brock is the only one out of all of [[Ash's friends]] to have owned at least one Pokémon from each of the four generations.

===Interview with Hidaka about Brock's short absence from the anime===
There had been some debate between members of the fanbase in regards to why Brock was removed from the main cast during the Orange Islands arc, why [[Tracey Sketchit]] was created, and why Brock returned later. In a [http://www.pokebeach.com/news/0708/second-pokemon-interview-with-masamitsu-hidaka-many-interesting-points recent interview] with former Pokémon anime director and storyboard artist [[Masamitsu Hidaka]], he stated his own reason why Brock was removed from the cast and why he eventually returned. He (or, rather his translator) revealed that the true reason they replaced Brock is because, once they realized Pokémon was going global, there was a chance that Americans, if not anyone else outside of Japan, would view Brock as a racist stereotype because of his eyes (even though there wasn't an actual complaint yet). So they created a "tall, anglo-saxon looking person to be on the safe side". They later replaced Tracey with Brock again once they realized that no one really cared as to what Brock looks like, and actually enjoyed his character.

However, this was only stated by Hidaka and not by any other staff member.

Pokémon Trading Card Game

The Pokémon Trading Card Game (or Pokémon TCG) is one of the most popular and steady aspects of the [[Pokémon]] franchise (next to the video game and animated television series). The Pokémon TCG revolves around buying, collecting, and trading playing cards with various likenesses of Pokémon on them. To play, a person must build a deck of sixty cards using a combination of various "Pokémon" cards (creatures that do battle), "Trainer" cards (which have special effects on them) and "Energy" cards (a method of cost). To win, a player must "knock out" six of their opponent's Pokémon creatures. A player can also win if their opponent no longer has any Pokémon creatures left to battle with, or if their opponent runs out of cards in their deck.

Unlike classic card games which uses a single deck of 52 cards, a ''trading card game'' (TCG) is constantly and continuously growing. New cards with new game abilities are released at a steady interval in order to keep the game fresh and alive. The only cost of TCG's, however, is that it forces a player to constantly keep in touch with the game, as well as having to purchase new cards from newly released sets. Players who don't keep up run the risk of falling behind other players.

As of July 2006, over 14 billion cards have been sold.

==History of the Pokémon TCG==
The Pokémon TCG was created by Media Factory in Japan. It was first released in Japan in 1997. [[Wizards of the Coast]], seeing a great opportunity to ride the new Pokémon wave, was licensed the game and introduced Pokémon TCG to North America in 1999. In 2003, [[Nintendo of America]] took over the game from Wizards of the Coast, and is currently releasing new sets for it. During the early part of its run, two [[Game Boy Color]] games were also released, [[Pokémon Trading Card Game (game)|Pokémon Trading Card Game]] and [[Pokémon Card GB 2]], though only the first was released outside of Japan.
