'''Wayne''' <!--(Japanese: '''?''' ''?'') --> is a character seen in [[PS124|Round 124]] of the [[Pokémon Special]] manga. This skilled trainer is a friend of [[Cianwood City]]'s [[Gym Leader]], [[Chuck]]. A vagabond, he prefers traveling around instead of settling down in one place. He has a feather he holds in his mouth like hard-boiled characters typically do with a strand of grain, and wears goggles. Chuck seems to have a very high opinion of him, even claiming him to be "strong enough to beat any gym leader around" and that he "could easily become a gym leader". Not much else is known about this trainer.
