He bears an interesting resemblence to the hollywood star and martial artist, Chuck Norris. Someone want to explain that to me? I'm not seeing any resemblance at *all*. --BJG

I actually thought this was obvious...But it seems I did the wrong thing, yet AGAIN. I should've discussed it first, but I thought that the resemblence between Chuck, a martial artist and Chuck Norris was quite easily apparent. Both martial artists and the programmers probably thought of him first. I'll write in a way easier to understand. -ades

It's probable for the name, but 'resemblance' implies mostly physical, and they don't look *anything* alike.--BJG

Chuck's Wife

Is the picture of his wife necessary in the article? File:Ani254MS.gifJTalkFile:Ani448MS.gif 09:37, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

No. Considering how low quality is. I'm removing (and deleting it). -Sketchies 19:07, 10 June 2008 (UTC)

Manga

The manga section annoys me. Can anyone expand it? I can't do it because I don't have any volumes with him, sadly. --Maxim 09:18, 3 November 2007 (UTC)

But really, there isn't much about him in the manga.--Ryuutakeshi 23:00, 9 September 2009 (UTC)

Chuck!(Norris?)

Chucking On The Norris Idea

Alright, isn't a BIT of a coincidence that he's called CHUCK and leads the gym for FIGHTING type Pokémon? He also has facial hair! I'm adding in the trivia section It may just be a coincidence, but Chuck may be based on Hollywood actor Chuck Norris. and nobody's gonna stop me! Team Hyper

Well I'm gonna. I highly doubt that he's based on Chuck Norris. I'm doubtful that he was even named after Norris — and if he was, it wasn't a reference to the meme that began in 2005. 梅子 16:24, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
