Chuck appears in {{game5|Gold|Silver|Crystal|HeartGold|SoulSilver}} as the Leader of the [[Cianwood Gym]]. A {{type|Fighting}} Trainer, he is known to spar with his Pokémon to train both them and himself. His in-game title is "His Roaring Fists Do the Talking". Chuck is married, but spends little time with [[Chuck's wife|his wife]]. She isn't too fond of this, and spends her time standing outside the Gym, perhaps waiting in hope that he will come home.

Chuck is married, but spends little time with [[Chuck's wife|his wife]]. She isn't too fond of this, and spends her time standing outside the Gym, perhaps waiting in hope that he will come home.


Chuck's Gym is very different between the two generations it has appeared. In [[Generation II]], once challengers have made their way through his Gym, Chuck will attempt to intimidate them before battle by telling how his Pokémon "will crush stones and shatter bones." He then lifts and tosses a boulder prior to accepting the challenge. In [[Generation IV]], Chuck awaits his challengers underneath a large waterfall. He will not notice the player approach him until the water under which he has been meditating stops flowing.

He will not notice the {{player}} approach him until the water under which he has been meditating stops flowing.


Chuck enjoys a good battle, but after losing he vows to train 24 hours a day. After he is defeated, his wife will give the player {{HM|02|Fly}}, which the successful Trainer will now be able to use outside of battle. She also comments that she is grateful that her husband would be doing more training, since he was getting "a little chubby". In addition to the {{Badge|Storm}}, Chuck gives out {{TM|01|DynamicPunch}} in Generation II ({{m|Focus Punch}} in Generation IV).

She also comments that she is grateful that her husband would be doing more training, since he was getting "a little chubby". In addition to the {{Badge|Storm}}, Chuck awards [[TM01]] (which is {{m|Dynamic Punch}} in Generation II or {{m|Focus Punch}} in Generation IV).


Chuck can be found in his Gym most of the time, but on Sundays the player can have their [[Photography|picture taken]] with him in the northwestern corner of {{rt|47|Johto}} (just south of where the {{DL|Flute|White Flute}} is found). Because of his punishing training schedule, his phone number can be obtained not from him, but from his wife. If the player calls him on a Wednesday night, Chuck will travel to [[Saffron City]] to battle with an enhanced team in the [[Fighting Dojo]].

Chuck also appears in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]'s Johto [[Gym Leader Castle]]. This is the only time he can be fought using Pokémon not of the {{type|Fighting}}; his second six-Pokémon team in this game is actually composed of only two Fighting-type Pokémon. However, all his Pokémon in both rounds know {{m|DynamicPunch}}, a {{type|Fighting}} move. Notably, it is the TM he gives out in the Generation II games.

After following him, Ash discovered that the man was Chuck, [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Cianwood Gym]]. Even though he is the Fighting master, he gets tired easily due to his body shape. His {{TP|Chuck|wife}} continually makes fun of him because of this. He is positive-minded and emotional and has a tendency to break out into tears if happy. His battle technique is to battle with his Pokémon to improve their concentration.
Chuck is the [[Cianwood City]] [[Gym Leader]], and he also trains his students to handle {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon. [[Kiyo]] and later [[Brawly]], [[Dewford Island]]'s Gym Leader and also a Fighting-type specialist, revealed that they once studied under Chuck.
 
Chuck appeared in ''[[EP209|Machoke, Machoke Man!]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} first noticed Chuck as he sparred alongside his {{p|Machoke}} on a Cianwood beach. The group rushed to his side after they witnessed him being thrown by Machoke, though Chuck was unfazed and had them march to the [[Cianwood Gym]] before officially introducing himself as the Gym Leader.
 
After a meal, Chuck agreed to a [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} against Ash. He sent out his {{p|Poliwrath}}, and it quickly defeated {{AP|Pikachu}} in the first round. Ash then used {{AP|Bayleef}}, who defeated both Poliwrath and Machoke with her {{m|Razor Leaf}} and {{m|Vine Whip}} attacks, earning him the {{Badge|Storm}}.
Ash was planning on challenging [[Olivine Gym]]'s [[Jasmine]], but [[Janina]] informed him that Jasmine was still not up to battling because of her concerns for [[Amphy|Sparkle]]. Chuck then recommended that Ash and his friends visit the nearby [[Whirl Islands]], and even gave them a card to pay for their ship fares. The following day, the group boarded a ship destined for the Whirl Islands. Chuck and his wife waved goodbye to them from a Cianwood pier.


Later, Chuck and Ash had their battle for a Storm Badge. Ash used {{AP|Pikachu}} who got defeated by Chuck's {{p|Poliwrath}}. Ash then used {{AP|Bayleef}} who defeated both Poliwrath and Machoke.
He reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]'', ''[[AG020|Brave the Wave]]'', and ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]''.


It was later revealed that [[Brawly]], the [[Dewford Town]] Gym Leader, used to be one of the many students of Chuck.
===Character===
Chuck actively trains with his Pokémon and uses himself as a decoy to test their strengths. He pushes them to perform their best and feeds them enormous amounts of power food to maintain their muscle. Chuck has raised his Pokémon to be focused and calm, making them tough opponents in {{pkmn|battle}}.


He reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[EP255|Why? Wynaut!]]'', ''[[AG020|Brave the Wave]]'' and ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]''.
Even though he is a {{t|Fighting}} master, Chuck gets tired easily due to his body shape. His [[Chuck's wife|wife]] repeatedly makes fun of him for this. He is also optimistic and burning with enthusiasm. In addition, Chuck has a tendency to break out into tears whenever he is overjoyed with his Pokémon and their progress.

Machoke made its appearance in ''[[EP209|Machoke, Machoke Man!]]''. Chuck and Machoke have a close bond of friendship with one another. This can be seen when both of them cry and hug each other when they are happy. They fight with each other often to improve their concentration in battles; they use this technique even before important matches.

At the [[Indigo Plateau]], Chuck arrives with his fellow Johto Gym Leaders to take place exhibition tournament for the Pokémon League against the Kanto Gym Leaders. In the sixth round, he faces off against his former student, Blue. Using the methods his teacher taught him, Blue defeats Chuck and gains another win for the Kanto Gym Leaders. When the [[Masked Man]] attacks the Pokémon League, Chuck and the other Gym Leaders combat his army of mind-controlled {{tc|Team Rocket Grunt}}s. The fight takes them to the [[Magnet Train]], which is used as a diversion to get the Gym Leaders away from the stadium. After the Masked Man is defeated, Chuck returned to his usual duties of being a Gym Leader.

The meeting is cut short by the sudden appearance of {{p|Arceus}}, who lands in front of the Ecruteak Gym and destroys it with a single blast. Falkner, Bugsy, and Chuck are caught in the blast and knocked unconscious.

Chuck (Japanese: シジマ Shijima) is the Gym Leader of Cianwood City's Gym, officially known as the Cianwood Gym. He specializes in Fighting-type Pokémon. Chuck gives out the Storm Badge to Trainers who defeat him.

In the games

Chuck appears in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver as the Leader of the Cianwood Gym. A Fighting-type Trainer, he is known to spar with his Pokémon to train both them and himself. His in-game title is "His Roaring Fists Do the Talking". Chuck is married, but spends little time with his wife. She isn't too fond of this, and spends her time standing outside the Gym, perhaps waiting in hope that he will come home.

Chuck's Gym is very different between the two generations it has appeared in. In Generation II, once challengers have made their way through his Gym, Chuck will attempt to intimidate them before battle by telling how his Pokémon "will crush stones and shatter bones." He then lifts and tosses a boulder prior to accepting the challenge. In Generation IV, Chuck awaits his challengers underneath a large waterfall. He will not notice the player approach him until the water under which he has been meditating stops flowing.

Chuck enjoys a good battle, but after losing he vows to train 24 hours a day. After he is defeated, his wife will give the player HM02 (Fly), which the successful Trainer will now be able to use outside of battle. She also comments that she is grateful that her husband would be doing more training, since he was getting "a little chubby". In addition to the Storm Badge, Chuck awards TM01 (which is Dynamic Punch in Generation II or Focus Punch in Generation IV).

Chuck can be found in his Gym most of the time, but on Sundays the player can have their picture taken with him in the northwestern corner of Route 47 (just south of where the White Flute is found). Because of his punishing training schedule, his phone number can be obtained not from him, but from his wife. If the player calls him on a Wednesday night, Chuck will travel to Saffron City to battle with an enhanced team in the Fighting Dojo.

Chuck also appears in Pokémon Stadium 2's Johto Gym Leader Castle. This is the only time he can be fought using Pokémon not of the Fighting-type; his second six-Pokémon team in this game is actually composed of only two Fighting-type Pokémon. However, all his Pokémon in both rounds know Dynamic Punch, a Fighting-type move. Notably, it is the TM he gives out in the Generation II games.

Quotes

Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal

  • Before battle
"WAHAHAH! So you've come this far! Let me tell you, I'm tough! My Pokémon will crush stones and shatter bones! Watch this! Urggh! Oooarrgh! (throws away the boulder besides himself) There! Scared now, are you? What? It has nothing to do with Pokémon? That's true! Come on. We shall do battle!"
  • Being defeated
"Wha? Huh? I lost? How about that! You're worthy of StormBadge!"
  • After battle
"StormBadge makes all Pokémon up to L70 obey, even traded ones. It also lets your Pokémon use Fly when you're not in a battle. Here, take this, too!"
"That is Dynamic-Punch. It doesn't always hit, but when it does, it causes confusion!"
"Wahahah! I enjoyed battling you! But a loss is a loss! From now on, I'm going to train 24 hours a day!"

  • Before battle
"Ooomph! The pounding waterfall right onto my head... Arrgh! Why did you stop the waterfall from pouring on me! You just spoiled my training! I have to warn you that I am a strong Trainer training every day under this waterfall! What? This has nothing to do with Pokémon? ... That's true! ... ... Come on. We shall do battle!"
  • After sending out last Pokémon
"We haven't lost yet!"
  • During battle, when last Pokémon is at critical health

Fortunately, I haven't been packing on too many pounds... Oh! Don't tell my wife! Please!"
"Yo! Chuck here! What's up? You know, I spend a lot of time training under a pounding waterfall every day. I guess that's why I've been disagreeing with my wife a lot lately. I was thinking of taking her on a trip as an apology, but I can't think of any good places to go. ...That's it! I should take her to Tohjo Falls! What do you think?"
"Lately my Gym's waterfall device has been malfunction... Aaaaahh! Boomwhooshoowhooshoowhooshoowhooshoowhooshoowhooshoowhooshoowhooshoowhoosh...! ...Haa haaa haaaa. Sorry.

"The way to the Embedded Tower is harder than you can imagine. You need Rock Climb as well as Surf."
"I see! So you've defeated all the Gym Leaders in Kanto as well! Then there's nothing to worry about. Believe in yourself and walk your path. Yahaha!"

Chuck in the anime

Chuck is the Cianwood City Gym Leader, and he also trains his students to handle Fighting-type Pokémon. Kiyo and later Brawly, Dewford Island's Gym Leader and also a Fighting-type specialist, revealed that they once studied under Chuck.

Chuck appeared in Machoke, Machoke Man!. Ash and his friends first noticed Chuck as he sparred alongside his Machoke on a Cianwood beach. The group rushed to his side after they witnessed him being thrown by Machoke, though Chuck was unfazed and had them march to the Cianwood Gym before officially introducing himself as the Gym Leader.

After a meal, Chuck agreed to a Gym battle against Ash. He sent out his Poliwrath, and it quickly defeated Pikachu in the first round. Ash then used Bayleef, who defeated both Poliwrath and Machoke with her Razor Leaf and Vine Whip attacks, earning him the Storm Badge.

Ash was planning on challenging Olivine Gym's Jasmine, but Janina informed him that Jasmine was still not up to battling because of her concerns for Sparkle. Chuck then recommended that Ash and his friends visit the nearby Whirl Islands, and even gave them a card to pay for their ship fares. The following day, the group boarded a ship destined for the Whirl Islands. Chuck and his wife waved goodbye to them from a Cianwood pier.

He reappeared in flashbacks in Why? Wynaut!, Brave the Wave, and Wheel of Frontier.

Character

Chuck actively trains with his Pokémon and uses himself as a decoy to test their strengths. He pushes them to perform their best and feeds them enormous amounts of power food to maintain their muscle. Chuck has raised his Pokémon to be focused and calm, making them tough opponents in battle.

Even though he is a Fighting master, Chuck gets tired easily due to his body shape. His wife repeatedly makes fun of him for this. He is also optimistic and burning with enthusiasm. In addition, Chuck has a tendency to break out into tears whenever he is overjoyed with his Pokémon and their progress.

History

Past

Chuck is a martial arts master who trained Blue in the ways of fighting and Pokémon training when he was a child.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

Chuck debuts in Scrappy Skarmory, waiting for his friend Walker to arrive so that they could battle each other. When Walker fails to show up, Chuck heads back outside to find his training equipment torn to shreds. The cause is revealed to be the Legendary Pokémon Suicune, which Walker is currently fighting against. They team up to fight Suicune and attempt to capture it, but they fail and Suicune manages to escape.

At the Indigo Plateau, Chuck arrives with his fellow Johto Gym Leaders to take place exhibition tournament for the Pokémon League against the Kanto Gym Leaders. In the sixth round, he faces off against his former student, Blue. Using the methods his teacher taught him, Blue defeats Chuck and gains another win for the Kanto Gym Leaders. When the Masked Man attacks the Pokémon League, Chuck and the other Gym Leaders combat his army of mind-controlled Team Rocket Grunts. The fight takes them to the Magnet Train, which is used as a diversion to get the Gym Leaders away from the stadium. After the Masked Man is defeated, Chuck returned to his usual duties of being a Gym Leader.

HeartGold & SoulSilver arc

Chuck, along with Bugsy and Falkner, is asked by Morty to guard the Ecruteak Gym from suspicious people asking to use Morty's clairvoyance. When Silver arrives to see Morty under Eusine's recommendation, the Gym Leaders mistake him for another suspicious person and stop his attempts to advance. Having no time to talk, Silver opts to battle the Gym Leaders and force his way inside. When Chuck's Hitmontop realizes that Silver's Rhyperior is actually the evolved form of Blue's Rhydon, Silver reveals that he is actually a friend of Blue. Hearing this makes Chuck decide to trust Silver and allow him inside the Gym. The meeting is cut short by the sudden appearance of Arceus, who lands in front of the Ecruteak Gym and destroys it with a single blast. Falkner, Bugsy, and Chuck are caught in the blast and knocked unconscious.
