'''Kiyo''' (Japanese: '''ノブヒコ''' ''Nobuhiko'') is a {{tc|Black Belt}} and the Master of [[Fighting Dojo]] who appeared in games and the anime. He is also referred to as the '''Karate Master''' in [[Generation I|Generations I]] and [[Generation III|III]], while in [[Generation II|Generations II]] and [[Generation IV|IV]] he is known as the '''Karate King'''.
'''Kiyo''' (Japanese: '''ノブヒコ''' ''Nobuhiko'') is a {{tc|Black Belt}} and the leader of the [[Fighting Dojo]] in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.  


==In the games==
He is known as the '''Karate King''' (Japanese: '''カラテだいおう''' ''Great Karate King'').
Black Belt Kiyo is a leader of [[Fighting Dojo]] in [[Saffron City]]. At one point, Kiyo was the Gym Leader of Saffron City until his Gym lost official privileges as a result of a duel between himself and [[Sabrina]]. It has since become a place where he and his students train Karate. The {{player}} obtains a {{p|Hitmonlee}} or a {{p|Hitmonchan}} as a reward for beating Kiyo. Later, in [[Generation II]] and their [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver versions|remakes]], he is found training at [[Mt. Mortar]]. To reach him, the player much travel through a lengthy maze section within the mountain. Upon defeating him, Kiyo will give the player a {{p|Tyrogue}} if there is an empty slot in the party. His Karate Gym in {{ci|Saffron}} is disbanded now, but one of Kiyo's students can still be found there.


In [[Pokémon X and Y]], Kiyo can be found in [[Lumiose City]], trying to start a new Fighting Dojo at a small apartment he has rented in Centrico Boulevard. His business doesn't seem to be running smoothly, however, as a {{tc|Battle Girl}} at the apartment tells that he's only getting new students signing up by telling them he's running a dance studio.
==In the core series games==
Kiyo is found training at [[Mt. Mortar]]. To reach him, the player must travel through a lengthy maze section within the mountain. Upon defeating him, Kiyo will give the player a {{p|Tyrogue}} if there is an empty slot in the party. His Karate Gym in {{ci|Saffron}} has been disbanded, but one of Kiyo's students can still be found there.


His name wasn't revealed until [[Generation II]]. In {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} he is misnamed '''Koichi''' (Japanese: '''タケノリ''' ''Takenori'') due to an oversight by the original Japanese producers.
In {{g|X and Y}}, the Dojo sensei (either Kiyo or [[Koichi]]) can be found in [[Lumiose City]], trying to start a new Fighting Dojo at a small apartment he has rented in Centrico Plaza. His business doesn't seem to be running smoothly, however, as a {{tc|Battle Girl}} at the apartment tells that he's only getting new students signing up by telling them he is running a dance studio.

* Before battle
Kiyo is featured in the {{DL|Egg event|Raise Tyrogue!}} event. The {{player}} encounters him training in a cave with two disciples, and he starts to challenge the player to battle, only to stop when {{mas|Sabrina}} appears. Depending on the player's dialogue option, she either identifies him as the leader of the [[Fighting Dojo]] or says they're like rivals, not friends. Kiyo challenges Sabrina to a battle, but she crushes him. Sabrina suggests that the player train with Kiyo, and he offers to give the player a {{p|Tyrogue}} Egg if they do. He introduces the player to Tyrogue's evolutions, then the training begins. The player can then battle Kiyo and his disciples, with a chance of receiving a Tyrogue Egg after every battle.
:''"Grunt! I am the <sc>Karate Master</sc>! I am the <sc>Leader</sc> here! You wish to challenge us? Expect no mercy! Fwaaa!"''
 
He is never explicitly called Kiyo during the event, with all his dialogue simply labeled {{tc|Black Belt}}. However, several of his lines of dialogue are identical to lines he says in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, including identifying himself as the Karate King. Sabrina also calls him the Karate King. The player's opponent in the event battles is named Black Belt Kyle (Japanese: '''からておうの ゴウタ''' ''Karate King Gouta''), but it is unclear if Kyle is meant to be the name of the Karate King himself or one of his disciples.

Kiyo's only anime appearance was in ''[[EP233|A Tyrogue Full of Trouble!]]''. He is a former student of [[Chuck]]'s and was in {{pkmn|training}} to compete in the [[P1 Grand Prix]]. Despite many protests from the nearby townspeople and concerns {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} had about it, he desired to earn the trust of an abandoned {{p|Tyrogue}}. Kiyo saved Tyrogue from a rockslide and later defeated him in hand-to-hand {{pkmn|battle}}, earning his respect. Tyrogue and his [[wild Pokémon]] friends then joined Kiyo's [[party|team]].
Kiyo appeared as a [[character of the day]] in ''[[EP233|A Tyrogue Full of Trouble!]]''. He is a former student of [[Chuck]]'s and was in {{pkmn|training}} to compete in the [[P1 Grand Prix]]. He desired to earn the trust of an abandoned Tyrogue near [[Mt. Mortar]]. Kiyo saved Tyrogue from a rock slide and later defeated him as a human in a Pokémon {{pkmn|battle}}, earning his respect. Tyrogue and his wild Pokémon friends then joined Kiyo's team. In the anime Kiyo is not a Fighting Dojo Master, or at least it isn't mentioned.
 
Despite the appearance of the [[Saffron City]] [[Fighting Dojo]] in ''[[AG145|Pasta La Vista]]'' and ''[[JN034|Solitary and Menacing!]]'', Kiyo did not appear in these episodes, and the leader was different characters in each episode ([[Master Hamm]] and [[Koichi]], respectively).

Kiyo (Japanese: ノブヒコ Nobuhiko) is a Black Belt and the leader of the Fighting Dojo in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver.

He is known as the Karate King (Japanese: カラテだいおう Great Karate King).

In the core series games

Kiyo is found training at Mt. Mortar. To reach him, the player must travel through a lengthy maze section within the mountain. Upon defeating him, Kiyo will give the player a Tyrogue if there is an empty slot in the party. His Karate Gym in Saffron has been disbanded, but one of Kiyo's students can still be found there.

In Pokémon X and Y, the Dojo sensei (either Kiyo or Koichi) can be found in Lumiose City, trying to start a new Fighting Dojo at a small apartment he has rented in Centrico Plaza. His business doesn't seem to be running smoothly, however, as a Battle Girl at the apartment tells that he's only getting new students signing up by telling them he is running a dance studio.

Pokémon Masters EX

Kiyo is featured in the Raise Tyrogue! event. The player encounters him training in a cave with two disciples, and he starts to challenge the player to battle, only to stop when Sabrina appears. Depending on the player's dialogue option, she either identifies him as the leader of the Fighting Dojo or says they're like rivals, not friends. Kiyo challenges Sabrina to a battle, but she crushes him. Sabrina suggests that the player train with Kiyo, and he offers to give the player a Tyrogue Egg if they do. He introduces the player to Tyrogue's evolutions, then the training begins. The player can then battle Kiyo and his disciples, with a chance of receiving a Tyrogue Egg after every battle.

He is never explicitly called Kiyo during the event, with all his dialogue simply labeled Black Belt. However, several of his lines of dialogue are identical to lines he says in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, including identifying himself as the Karate King. Sabrina also calls him the Karate King. The player's opponent in the event battles is named Black Belt Kyle (Japanese: からておうの ゴウタ Karate King Gouta), but it is unclear if Kyle is meant to be the name of the Karate King himself or one of his disciples.

In the anime

Kiyo's only anime appearance was in A Tyrogue Full of Trouble!. He is a former student of Chuck's and was in training to compete in the P1 Grand Prix. Despite many protests from the nearby townspeople and concerns Ash and his friends had about it, he desired to earn the trust of an abandoned Tyrogue. Kiyo saved Tyrogue from a rockslide and later defeated him in hand-to-hand battle, earning his respect. Tyrogue and his wild Pokémon friends then joined Kiyo's team.

Despite the appearance of the Saffron City Fighting Dojo in Pasta La Vista and Solitary and Menacing!, Kiyo did not appear in these episodes, and the leader was different characters in each episode (Master Hamm and Koichi, respectively).

Tyrogue
Tyrogue was abandoned by his original Trainer in the mountains. This caused him to become bitter and begin lashing out at any human who approached him. He wore a blue neckerchief as a reminder of his abandonment. At some point, he befriended a wild Mankey and Primeape, and together, the trio committed a number of mischievous acts in nearby villages.

One day, Tyrogue leaped in to save Misty's Togepi from some rampaging Tauros. Later, he gave a trio of wild Pokémon some fruit to eat after noticing they were hungry. After Jessie stole fruit from a Sandshrew, Tyrogue attacked Team Rocket and sent them blasting off.

Later, Kiyo battled Tyrogue with his Hitmonlee and Hitmonchan, but both of his Pokémon were defeated. Kiyo then battled Tyrogue himself and won, earning Tyrogue's respect in the process. He gave Tyrogue a new red neckerchief, made from his own armband, to commemorate the new friendship.

Tyrogue's known moves are Swift, Tackle, Headbutt, Double Team, and Jump Kick*.
