'''Brawly''' (Japanese: '''トウキ''' ''Touki'') is the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Dewford Town]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Dewford Gym]]. {{pkmn|Trainer}}s who defeat him receive the {{Badge|Knuckle}}. He is a young surfer who specializes in {{type|Fighting}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

==In the games==

Brawly's title is "A big wave in fighting." His strategy is direct physical attacks. He is also a deep thinker, often comparing the scene of battle to everyday life and vice-versa.

Brawly's Gym is kept in pitch-black darkness to test the bravery of the Trainers. Brawly also trains in the rough waves around Dewford and the pitch-black [[Granite Cave]].

He believes the world awaits him as the next big wave. He often talks in surfing jargon, and constantly talks about "big waves"- both literal and metaphorical.

Brawly once trained with [[Bruno]] of the [[Kanto]] [[Elite Four]] in [[Sevault Canyon]] of [[Quest Island]].

In addition to the Knuckle Badge, Brawly gives out {{TM|08|Bulk Up}}, in {{3v2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

==In the anime==

[[File:Brawly anime.png|thumb|left|200px|Brawly in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]

He first appeared in ''[[AG020|Brave the Wave]]''. {{Ash}} was very annoyed that Brawly would put off a Gym battle in favor of going surfing. At first, Ash was unable to realize Brawly was training his Pokémon by taking them surfing, and teaching them how to dodge and concentrate on keeping their balance. A combination of this special form of dodging and Ash's own arrogance allowed Brawly to best the younger Trainer despite a type disadvantage. After this and a conversation with Brawly where he explained his techniques, Ash trained for several weeks in anticipation of a rematch. Ash even went so far as to copy Brawly's wave-training to teach his Pokémon how to dodge and resist attacks.

Brawly again appeared in ''[[AG030|A Meditite Fight!]]'', where Ash battled one of Brawly's [[Shauna|students]] in a storm. Brawly showed up and told them to call off the match until the storm passed.

Brawly led everyone, even {{TRT}}, to a cave on the shore to wait for the storm to pass. After seeing Ash's battle against his star pupil, Brawly agreed to a rematch in a private arena- a wave-swept islet off the coast of Dewford.

Using his Pokémon's new techniques and his newly-caught {{AP|Corphish}}, Ash was finally able to claim the Knuckle Badge in ''[[AG031|Just One of the Geysers!]]''.

Brawly once trained with [[Chuck]], a Gym Leader from [[Johto]]. Brawly teaches many of the locals how to surf as well as how to train Pokémon. Many of his pupils at the Gym are surfers like himself.

This listing is of Brawly's Pokémon in the Pokémon {{pkmn|anime}}.

|vajp=Shin'ichirō Miki

|desc={{p|Machop}} was the first Pokémon Brawly used against Ash in both the first Gym battle and the rematch. During the first match it was sent up against {{AP|Taillow|Swellow}} and although Taillow kept using {{m|Wing Attack}} and hitting it, Machop kept getting up and eventually managed to knock Taillow out with a Cross Chop. Then, Ash used {{AP|Treecko}} which was finally able to defeat it.

In Ash and Brawly's rematch, Machop was again used first. It began to overpower Treecko, but fell to Ash's newly-caught {{AP|Corphish}}.

|desc={{p|Hariyama}} first appeared as a {{p|Makuhita}} and enjoys surfing the waves. After a Gym battle with {{AP|Treecko|Sceptile}}, it evolved into Hariyama, and defeated Treecko. After helping the gang to escape from a violent storm, Ash had his rematch against Brawly. Hariyama was able to defeat Corphish and almost defeated Treecko, but thanks to Ash's strategy, Treecko was able to defeat Hariyama after a fierce battle.}}

Brawly also trains his Pokémon by surfing with them in [[Pokémon Adventures]]. His strategy is to use "subtle forces" to counteract his opponents' strength and speed. He also likes to save his Pokémon's [[evolution]]s for battles.

During his match with {{adv|Sapphire}}, his Makuhita evolved into Hariyama. Sapphire figured out that his use of {{m|Counter}} could be overcome by moves which attacked with multiple hits, such as {{m|Double Kick}}. Due to a misunderstanding, she was also expecting Brawly's Pokémon to evolve.  

Brawly sided with [[Team Aqua]] in the [[Hoenn]] conflict because he wanted more places to surf. He changed his mind after {{p|Kyogre}} and {{p|Groudon}} started their rampage. His opponent during the Kyogre/Groudon fiasco was [[Mack]]. Using direct, brutal strength acquired from old friend [[Bruno]] instead of his usual strategy, he defeated him at the cost of his own Pokémon. He was last seen on the Pokémon Association's airship "Ba.Goon", resting from his injuries.

|epname=VS. Makuhita

|desc={{p|Machoke}} as a Machop, was the first Pokémon Brawly used in his battle against Sapphire where it fought against her [[Chic]] but was defeated by the newly evolved Combusken's moves before it could even use an attack. It later appeared again as a Machoke where it and its Trainer went to Fortree City for a Gym Leader's meeting. Brawly used it in his battle against [[Mack]] but it was defeated by his terrifying illusions.

Machoke's known moves are {{m|Focus Punch}}, {{m|Leer}} and {{m|Revenge}}, and its Ability is {{a|Guts}}.}}

===In the Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire manga===

[[File:Brawly PMRS.png|thumb|Brawly in Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire]]

Brawly appears in ''[[PMRS11|The Haunted Gym]]'' where he tests his challengers by going through the Dark Gym. His appearance in this manga is different.

|desc={{p|Sableye}} is Brawly's only known Pokémon. It is considered an unusual choice for him as it was not a {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon and it is immune to Fighting moves. Brawly probably uses it for his haunted Gym theme.}}

* Brawly is a {{type|Fighting}} Trainer with a pastime involving water, in comparison with [[Crasher Wake]], a {{type|Water}} Trainer with a pastime involving fighting. Coincidentally, they both wear clothes with the colors orange, blue, black, and white.

*In {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}} as well as {{game|Emerald}}, a Black Belt training himself on [[Route 127]] says that Brawly used to train with "[[Bruno]] of Kanto". Similarly, in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, a {{tc|Black Belt}} in [[Sevault Canyon]] on [[Quest Island]] says that Bruno of the [[Indigo League]]'s [[Elite Four]] used to train with an old friend there, that friend being Brawly.

*To date, he is the only Fighting-type specialist that is not shown barefoot.
