This article is about a character featured in the Pokémon anime who has not yet debuted in the English language dub. As such, their information may contain romanized Japanese names, rather than dub names. |
(Japanese: ブルガン Bourgain) is a recurring character who first appeared in SM070. He is the president of the (Japanese: レインボーハッピーリゾートカンパニー Rainbow Happy Resort Company) and the leader of the Revengers.
He arrived at Paniola Ranch, keen to buy it and turn it into a resort hotel. After Kiawe and his family declined, he began to harass them, which infuriated Kiawe. As a result, Kiawe challenged him to a battle, where Kiawe's unsuccessful attempt at using a Z-Move with Marowak gave Bourgain the win.
Bourgain returned the next day and had a rematch against Kiawe, but was defeated. Despite this, diggers approached the farm for an excavation and was ready to destroy it, only for Sima, Mimo, and Rango to stand their ground. Unfortunately for him, Officer Jenny arrived with a warrant for his arrest, the charges against him being forging land ownership documents, trespassing, and malicious destruction to property (both legal and private). She then arrested him and his underlings.
He appeared again in SM081, where he tried to buy out the Battle Royal Dome using the Revengers. When the Revengers were defeated by Ash and the Masked Royal, he attempted to challenge the masked fighters himself with his Pangoro, but Incineroar and Torracat swiftly sent Pangoro flying out of the ring and into its Trainer, knocking them both out.
He will appear again in SM085.
