==In the games==
[[Image:FL Bruno Art.png|150px|right|thumb|Bruno's artwork from {{2v2|FireRed|LeafGreen}}]]
Bruno is a member of the [[Elite Four]]. He raises Fighting-type Pokémon, living with them and training with them. He joined the Elite Four out of a desire to challenge the best Trainers.

Bruno regularly visits the [[Sevii Islands]]. He and his Pokémon use the spa on [[Knot Island]], and he visits [[Boon Island]] to buy [[Ragecandybar]]s.

[[Brawly]] is a former training partner of Bruno's.

In Pokémon {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}, as well as {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Bruno continues to be a member of the Elite Four, though moving up in rank one level.

==In the anime==
[[Image:Bruno.png|left|thumb|Bruno in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Bruno appeared in ''[[EP071|To Master the Onixpected!]]''. His English voice actress is [[Maddie Blaustein]] and his Japanese voice actor is ''[[Toshiyuki Morikawa]]''.

While {{Ash}} was preparing for the [[Pokémon League]] in Kanto, he found out that Bruno was training in the mountains near [[Pallet Town]]. [[Brock]] was enthusiastic about meeting Bruno, so they took [[Misty]] and headed towards the mountains. In the local mountains, it was known that {{p|Onix}} grew much larger than usual.

After Bruno saved them from one of the giant Onix, Ash and Brock begged for Bruno to take them on as students. Bruno agreed, as long as Ash and Brock would do anything he said. Bruno had them chop wood, carry water, and carve chopsticks - amongst other chores. Misty began to suspect that Bruno was a phony.

Brock decided to prove how amazing Bruno was by surprising him with a sneak attack. He assumed that Bruno's reflexes would be so amazing, he'd stop Brock with ease. Brock nearly ended up knocking Bruno unconscious. Bruno admitted that he didn't know any secret techniques on how to train Pokémon and just wanted to have someone to do chores for him.

Later, the kids were again chased by a giant Onix. Bruno calmed the giant Pokémon, and it decided to join Bruno's team. Bruno then said that the only true secret behind Pokémon training is that Trainers and their Pokémon should care for each other.

Bruno has amazing physical power and agility in the anime, and appears capable of using them with almost superhuman expertise.

==In the Pokémon Special manga==
[[Image:Bruno Special.png|right|thumb|Bruno]]
In the [[Pokémon Special]] manga, Bruno was primarily a villain. He challenged {{Special|Red}} to a Pokémon battle in a remote area. He then offered a position on the Elite Four to Red, but Red refused so [[Lorelei]] froze him.

Later, the Elite Four tried to wipe out most of humanity from [[Cerise Island]]. [[Bill]], [[Lt. Surge]], and Red teamed up to defeat Bruno.

It was later revealed that Bruno was an unwilling member. [[Agatha]] used the mind controlling abilities of her {{t|Ghost}}-type Pokémon to force Bruno to join.

Without any place to go, Bruno formed a new version of the Elite Four in Johto, with three other ex-members of criminal organizations: [[Will]], [[Karen]], and [[Koga]].

Bruno attaches his [[Poké Ball]]s to the ends of a set of nunchuck. The force of him using the weapon causes his Pokémon to be released at high speeds, giving him the advantage in battles.

==Quotes==
===[[Pokémon Red and Blue Versions|Pokémon Red, Blue]], [[Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen Versions|FireRed, and LeafGreen]]===

''"I am <sc>Bruno</sc> of the <sc>Elite Four</sc>! Through rigorous training, people and Pokémon can become stronger without limit. I've lived and trained with my Fighting Pokémon! And that will never change! <name>! We will grind you down with our superior power! Hoo hah!"''

''"Why? How could I lose?"''

''"My job is done. Go face your next challenge."''

===Pokémon {{3v2|Gold|Silver|Crystal}}===

''"I am <sc>Bruno</sc> of the <sc>Elite Four</sc>. I always train to the extreme because I believe in our potential. That is how we became strong. Can you withstand our power? Hm? I see no fear in you. You look determined. Perfect for battle! Ready, <name>? You will bow down to our overwhelming power! Hoo hah!"''

''"Why? How could we lose?"''

''"Having lost, I have no right to say anything...Go face your next challenge!"''

==Trivia==
* Bruno's hair has changed from [[Generation II]] to [[Generation III]] to a longer, darker style and his skin tone got lighter as well.
* Bruno was the first member of the [[Elite Four]] who was met in the anime, not counting [[Koga]], who was not a member when he was seen.
* After defeating Bruno in the [[Generation II]] games, he will turn to his left; he is the only character in the [[Elite Four]] that does this.
* None of Bruno's sprites have ever shown him standing up.
* Bruno, [[Lance]], and [[Koga]] are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all four generations. Of the three, Bruno is the only one to always keep his status as Elite Four member.
* Despite taking place three years later, Bruno's Pokémon are at a lower level in Generation II then they were in Generation I. The same thing happens to [[Lance]].
