Brock's siblings, known affectionately in fanon as the Brocklings, are the nine younger brothers and sisters of Brock. They are the children of Flint and Lola, and appear to all be relatively close in age. They all first appeared in Brock's care in Showdown in Pewter City.
Like Brock and their father, they all have very narrow eyes, as though stuck in a permanent squint. None of the children inherited Lola's eyes, though some seem to have skin and hair closer in tone to their mother's.
The most notable among them is the oldest son after Brock, Forest (Japanese: ジロー Jirō), who was first referred to by name and became more defined than the rest of the children in A Family That Battles Together, Stays Together! The remaining childrens' names were listed in Grating Spaces: Salvadore, Yolanda, Tommy, Cindy, Suzie, Timmy, Billy and Tilly (or, in Japanese: サブロー Saburō, ヨモコ Yomoko, ゴロウ Gorou, ムツコ Mutuko, ナナコ Nanako, ヤオキ Yaoki, クロウ Kurou and トウコ Touko).
All the children are extremely close to their big brother Brock, and they seem to view him as more of a parent figure than their own parents. This is understandable, given both Flint and Lola left home to pursue their own interests, leaving all the children, the house and the Pewter Gym all in the care of Brock, their oldest son. He took on all these heavy responsibilities and cared diligently for all his brothers and sisters, proving his devotion and love for his family. They all love him in turn; in their debut episode, when he was losing a battle, they all grabbed onto the opposing trainer Ash Ketchum because they knew their big brother didn't want his Onix hurt. Whenever Brock battles at the gym, his siblings watch and root for him.
With the exception of Forest, they are too young to train Pokémon and have none of their own.
