Brock's Sudowoodo (Japanese: タケシのウソッキー Takeshi's Usokkie) was the only Pokémon caught by Brock in the Battle Frontier saga; at the time, it was a Bonsly. It is voiced by 阪口大助 Daisuke Sakaguchi in Japanese and by Bill Rogers in English. In Brazil, as a Bonsly, when its voice couldn't be retained, it was voiced by Gilmara Sanches.
History
Brock captured Bonsly in the episode From Cradle to Save, while Ash, May, Max and himself were training at a ninja school in the Kanto Battle Frontier. Being much younger than the other Pokémon, Bonsly was portrayed as needy and child-like, and Brock was often seen bottle-feeding him until it could eat normal food.
Bonsly occasionally took over from Max in getting Brock away from girls. However, rather than pull his ear, Bonsly hit him with a powerful Take Down.
Brock entered Bonsly in a Pokémon Contest in What I Did for Love, using it in the Appeals round.
When Brock joined up with Ash in Sinnoh, Bonsly was the only Pokémon he brought with him. Bonsly had shown signs of maturation, eventually learning the move Mimic in A Staravia is Born!. In the next episode, after being captured by Team Rocket, Bonsly evolved into Sudowoodo to help free Brock and a Nuzleaf, defeating James's Carnivine in a battle.
Since its evolution, it has matured and is no longer a crybaby. In fact, it is very upbeat, as seen in All Dressed Up With Somewhere to Go when it recovered from a crushing disappointment almost instantly. It has also shown a significant increase in its power and battling skills. Instead of being needy and heavily reliant on Brock's care, Sudowoodo is eager to help Brock in almost any task. In almost all regards, it has grown from a typical baby Pokémon into a strong adult Pokémon, a true testament to Brock's talents as a Pokémon Breeder. It also has an odd tendency to salute Brock whenever it is called from its Poké Ball.
Since Brock brought another baby Pokémon onto his team by hatching Happiny from the egg he won in the Pokémon Cosplay competition, Sudowoodo seems to have bonded with her, and the two frequently are featured doing activities together, almost as if Sudowoodo is an older sibling.

Trivia
- For DP019, Professor Oak's lecture is about Brock's Sudowoodo. He writes this Pokémon senryū about it: しんかして もうなかないよ ウソッキー You've evolved, so don't cry anymore, Usokkie.
- Despite Brock originally being Kanto's Rock-specialist Gym Leader, Sudowoodo is only the third Template:Type2 Pokémon Brock has owned in the entire series. It's also the first pure Rock-type owned by him.
- It is also the only Rock-type to be captured by him during his tenure on the show, as Onix and Geodude came to be in his possession sometime before Showdown in Pewter City.
- Sudowoodo is Brock's third Pokémon from the Mineral Egg Group. His first two were Geodude and Onix (who evolved into Steelix)
- Sudowoodo was the second of five Generation II Pokémon to be in the party of a member of the main cast during the Diamond & Pearl series, preceded by Aipom and followed by Gligar, Yanma, and Swinub (third if one counts Wobbuffet).
- While four of these are Generation II Pokémon that evolve into Generation IV Pokémon, Sudowoodo is the only one of them that did the reverse, evolving from its Generation IV baby form early in the Diamond & Pearl series.
- As a Bonsly, it was the only Pokémon owned by a main character that didn't eat Pokémon food, since Brock always fed it with a bottle. However, it did begin eating Pokémon food before it evolved in Leave It to Brocko!
