Chuck (Japanese: シジマ Shijima) is the Gym Leader of Cianwood City's Gym, officially known as the Cianwood Gym. His specialty is Template:Type2 Pokémon. Chuck gives out the Storm Badge to Trainers who beat him.
In the games
Chuck appears in Generations II and IV, in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold and SoulSilver. A Template:Type2 Trainer, he is known to spar with his Pokémon to train both them and himself. His title is "His Roaring Fists Do the Talking".
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). 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 gives out TM01 (DynamicPunch in Generation II; Focus Punch in Generation IV).

"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! There! Scared now, are you? What? It has nothing to do with Pokémon? That's true! Come on. We shall do battle!"
"Wha? Huh? I lost? How about that! You're worthy of Storm Badge!"
In the anime
Chuck made his only anime appearance in Machoke, Machoke Man!. Ash and his friends met a man roughhousing with a Machoke. 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 as he is a little fat. His 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.
Later Chuck and Ash had their battle for a Storm Badge. Ash used Pikachu who got defeated by Chuck's Poliwrath. Ash then used Bayleef who defeated Poliwrath and Machoke.
It was later revealed that Brawly, the Dewford Town Gym Leader, used to be one of the many students of Chuck.
