Brock's Marshtomp (Japanese: タケシのヌマクロー Takeshi's Numacraw) was the second Pokémon acquired by Brock in Hoenn, and his seventh altogether. Its Japanese voice actor is 三木眞一郎 Shin'ichirō Miki and its English voice actress is Jamie Peacock. As a Mudkip, it was voiced by 林原めぐみ Megumi Hayashibara in Japanese and Lindsey Warner (Template:4Kids dub) and Michele Knotz (TPCi dub) in English.

History

Brock caught Mudkip in A Mudkip Mission. Mudkip lived at a pond where a number of Mudkip were bred. While most of the Pokémon left the pond as they grew older, the one that Brock caught was already mature and acted as a guardian of the younger, smaller Mudkip. It joined Brock and left the pond after he helped it rescue itself and the younger Mudkip from a Team Rocket attack.

In A Chip Off the Old Brock, Mudkip evolved into a Marshtomp during a training battle versus Ash's Grovyle. It then became smitten with a Flaaffy, as Brock was smitten by its trainer.

Marshtomp is among the more behaved of the gang's Pokémon. It is often seen helping Ash's Pikachu break up scuffles between Pokémon. Being a Template:Type2 Pokémon, it usually worked with Brock's Ludicolo to launch double Water Gun attacks. It is also called upon to search for things underwater. It is also often used to help track down a missing Pokémon or object (usually due to Team Rocket stealing it) using the fin on its head as a radar.

Brock left his Marshtomp at the Pewter Gym when he decided to join Ash in the Sinnoh region.

Trivia

• Out of the main characters' Hoenn starter Pokémon, Marshtomp is the only one that didn't fully evolve.
• Before Brock captured Marshtomp (as a Mudkip), it acted tough to protect Old Man Swamp's Mudkip, similar to Ash's Bulbasaur who protected a village of Pokémon from intruders.
• This is Brock's second Pokémon to fall in love. The first was Ludicolo in Once in a Mawile.
