===Origin===
Bruno's design is based on his appearance in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}. Machamp is Bruno's signature Pokémon in the [[core series]] games. Machamp's {{mas|Dex}} entry comes from {{pkmn|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Pokémon Ultra Sun}}.
Bruno uses one or two {{TP|Bruno|Onix}} in most battles against him in the core series games. Onix's Dex entry comes from {{pkmn|Ruby and Sapphire Versions|Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire}}.

Description A member of the Elite Four who believes that people and Pokémon can become stronger though rigorous–even extreme–training, he shouts "Hoo Hah!" to get fired up.

Bruno (Japanese: シバ Siba) is a Pokémon Trainer in Pokémon Masters EX, based on the character of the same name in the core series games. He forms a sync pair with Machamp. This sync pair was first made available since the game's release. The pair's potential can be upgraded to Masters EX star.png 6★ EX from February 25, 2024, which unlocks Bruno's EX style.

Bruno also forms a sync pair with his Onix. This pair is available through a variety sync pair scout and was first made available on April 22, 2023. This pair can be upgraded to Masters EX star.png 6★ EX since its release, though this pair lacks an EX style.
