Brutella rebuilding her restaurant

Brutella (Japanese: オババ Obaba) is a character of the day in the Pokémon anime.

Brutella's first appearance was in Beauty and the Beach. In the episode, she tried to sabotage Moe's restaurant with the help of Team Rocket. She also had Team Rocket attack a beauty contest with their Gyarados submarine. Ash managed to save the day with his Pidgeotto and Charmander. In the process, her restaurant ended up getting destroyed.

The last time Brutella appeared was on a cameo in Tentacool & Tentacruel. She was rebuilding her restaurant when her cousin, Nastina, fell on top of it and destroyed it once again. She was mentioned a few times in the Japanese version of the episode, but they were edited out during localization because of the events that led to the ban of Beauty and the Beach's. It should be noted that Brutella's English name comes from the Italian word brutta, which means "ugly".

While her Japanese name, オババ, is her actual given name in the original Japanese episode, the characters do not use it in this context; instead they refer to Brutella by using the name as a play on the term 鬼ばば hag, a somewhat rude term to refer to an old woman. This is also the case for Nastina, who shares the same Japanese name.
