Crasher Wake (Japanese: マキシマム仮面 Maximum Mask), referred to in the games as Wake (Japanese: マキシ Maxi) at times due to a character limit, is the Gym Leader of Pastoria City's Gym, known officially as the Pastoria Gym. He hands out the Fen Badge to trainers who defeat him. He specializes in Water-type Pokémon.

In the games

Crasher Wake uses Water-type Pokémon in his battles. Trainers receive the Fen Badge, TM55 Brine and are able to use Defog outside of battle. Wake has a jovial, enthusiastic, and bombastic personality. Wake's strategy is nothing more than choosing moves that will make his battles more fun, and encourages everyone not to take battles too seriously, and to remember they're supposed to be fun. Crasher Wake uses the prize money he gets from competitive Pokémon battles to help the unfortunate. Crasher Wake has his Pokémon use Defog to keep the weather of Pastoria City clear.

Trivia

Crasher Wake's use of his prize money to help the disadvantaged is a common cliche in tales of fictional luche libre, inspired by the real-life Lucha Libre, Fray Tormenta.

Names

Language Name Origin
Japanese マキシマム仮面 (Maximum Mask) Probably referring to his lucha libre mask.
English Crasher Wake Perhaps based off of lucha libre names, as his appearance suggests. Sounds similar to crashing wave. A wake is also the set of triangular waves left by something travelling through water (a boat, etc.).
