Brock (Japanese: タケシ Takeshi) is the Gym Leader of Pewter City's Gym, known officially as the Pewter Gym. He gives the Boulder Badge to Trainers who defeat him in battle. He specializes in Rock-type Pokémon.

In the games

Brock appears in Pokémon Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen as the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym, which is the first Gym that the player challenges on their journey. He is one of the few truly serious professional Pokémon Trainers in the Pewter City area, and many people respect and admire him. He is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses Rock-type Pokémon to complement this. He rarely laughs or drops his serious demeanor, but when he does, he finds it hard to stop. In his free time, he likes to dig for Fossils in Mt. Moon. In addition to the Boulder Badge, Brock gives out TM34 (Bide) in Red, Blue, and Yellow, TM39 (Rock Tomb) in FireRed and LeafGreen, and TM01 (Headbutt) in Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.

In Yellow, Brock mentions that he is training to become a Pokémon Breeder, despite breeding not being present in the game. This is a reference to the goals of his anime counterpart.

Three years later, in Pokémon Gold, Silver, Crystal, HeartGold, and SoulSilver, Brock remains the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym, which can be challenged at any point during the player's travels through Kanto. He is surprised to hear that the player is from the Johto region, and happily accepts their challenge. While he doesn't give out a TM in Gold, Silver, and Crystal, he gives out TM80 (Rock Slide) in HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In HeartGold and SoulSilver, after all 16 Badges have been obtained, Brock can be found in Diglett's Cave near Pewter City on any day between noon and 3 PM, and will offer his Pokégear number if spoken to. If he is called on Saturday nights, he will be up for a rematch at the Fighting Dojo in Saffron City. After his Pokégear number has been obtained, he will reappear in Diglett's Cave every day between 5 PM and 8 PM, and the player can have a photograph taken with him there. If he is spoken to in Diglett's Cave on a Saturday, he will offer to trade a Rhyhorn that knows Thunder Fang for a Bonsly.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Brock appears alongside the other Gym Leaders of Kanto as an opponent in the Kanto Leaders Tournament at the Pokémon World Tournament. He also participates alongside the Gym Leaders of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh and Unova in the World Leaders Tournament, and other Rock-type experts in the Rock Type Expert Tournament.

In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, it is revealed that he obsessed with girls.

• Being defeated

"Your Pokémon's powerful attacks overcame my rock-hard defense... You're stronger than I expected... Go ahead--take this Badge."

• After battle

• Being defeated

"I took you for granted, and so I lost. As proof of your victory, I confer on you this...the official Pokémon League BoulderBadge."

• After being defeated

"Wait! Take this with you."

"A TM, Technical Machine, contains a technique for Pokémon. Using a TM teaches the move it contains to a Pokémon. A TM is only good for one use. So, when you use one, pick the Pokémon carefully. Anyways... TM39 contains Rock Tomb. It hurls boulders at the foe and lowers its speed."

• Calling him:

"Hello... What's up? I'm doing great! I can take a break on Saturday evenings, if you want to give me a call again then."

• On Saturdays:

"Hello... What's up? I'm doing great! Hey, you called at just the right time! I'm free right now. Want to battle me again?"

"It seems I underestimated you."

"There are all kinds of people in this huge world of ours. Some have their Pokémon battle—some just like to raise them... I'm hard at work here to learn how to become a Pokémon Breeder, who helps raise Pokémon. You're aiming to become a strong Trainer, right? Then you should challenge all the other Gyms!"

"Hey! I didn't expect to run into you here. I'm on my way back from visiting the Celadon City Gym. Keeping in touch with other Gym Leaders is part of our duties, after all!"

"The girls at that Gym all turned me away for some reason, though... Actually, have some Pewter Crunchies! I'd brought them as a gift to the Gym here."

"Oh, and you're probably going to want some tea after eating them. Pewter Crunchies can make you thirsty."

"Ah! I don't have enough left to give to that thirsty guard now..."

"Anyway, it looks like you've been visiting the Gyms in other cities! I wish you the best!"

In the main series

Brock in the Sun & Moon series

Main article: Brock (anime)

In the anime, like later Gym Leaders, Brock appeared primarily as an opponent to Ash Ketchum in his debut episode; unlike later Gym Leaders, he requested to join Ash on his journey, aiming to be the world's greatest Pokémon Breeder. In doing so, Brock left the Gym in the hands of his father, Flint, who had finally revealed himself to have returned from his journey. Brock advised Ash throughout the Kanto region, then left briefly during the Orange Archipelago arc to assist Professor Ivy. He returned to Ash's side in Johto, and with brief returns to Pewter City at the end of each series, joined him for his journeys in Hoenn and Sinnoh as well; however, he now wants to become a Pokémon Doctor.

Brock mainly provides an advisory role to the other main characters of the anime, being several years older than the rest of them. His knowledge of Pokémon battles is great, causing him to often referee matches between Ash and others. Brock also fancies himself as something of a ladies' man, though each time he hits on someone he is either rejected outright; pulled away by Misty or Max; or, more recently, Poison Jabbed by his Croagunk.

In Pokémon Origins

Brock in Pokémon Origins

In Pokémon Origins, Brock is the only Gym Leader to have a key role other than Giovanni. Much like his role in the games, Brock is the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym.

Brock is first seen in File 1: Red, watching a Pokémon battle between Red and Blue. After Red is defeated, Brock talks to Red and teaches him about the basics of Pokémon battling and training.

Later, Red discovers that Brock is the Gym Leader of Pewter City and goes to challenge Brock to earn his first Badge. There, they have a Gym battle in which Brock teaches Red about type matchups and strategy. Brock is shown to have many Pokémon, and selects Geodude and Onix when Red confirms that he has no Badges. This implies that all Gym Leaders have Pokémon of varying strengths in reserve in order to keep each challenge a fair fight. After a tough battle, Red eventually defeats Brock by using all of his Pokémon to slowly weaken Brock's Onix until it falls. Having lost the battle, Brock awards Red with the Boulder Badge and TM34 (Bide).

Unlike most other characters in Pokémon Origins, whose designs were based on their Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen designs, Brock's design is more akin to his Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver design.

Brock appeared in the Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer, where he joined Scottie and Rosa in a journey across Pasio. In a forest, the trio came across Erika, a Beauty, and a Lass; and battled their Vileplume, Lotad, and Whimsicott, respectively. His Onix was ensnared in Whimsicott's Leech Seed, but Rosa's Snivy managed to free it. Afterwards, Brock healed Snivy with a Potion after it was injured by Lotad's Energy Ball. Brock's group soon came out victorious, after which Erika joined them on their journey.

History

Red, Green & Blue arc

Brock debuts in Onix Is On!, though he is mentioned earlier by Blue in Wanted: Pikachu!, who described him as being bored by no one being able to defeat him, or even get past the preliminaries. To gain access to Brock, a Trainer must win several rounds of battles against special Trainers of the Gym, and all of those battles are watched by him from a special room.

Brock is a brave Trainer, and he assists Erika and Misty in their battles against Team Rocket. He also gave Yellow a Graveler after the good Gym Leaders of Kanto battled Agatha's mind-controlling Gastly. However, he is also shown to be quick to anger and restless in his search for a good battle, and when discovering that Red's Pika, the only remaining Pokémon of his, was disobedient, deemed his wins "dumb luck" and sought for a finisher attack instantly. However, when the boy begins to gain his Pokémon's trust, it chooses to fight for him and defeats his Onix.

Yellow arc

After Blaine figured out that Red must have been at Mt. Moon before going missing, Brock volunteered to search there, since Mt. Moon is closest to Pewter City. He then found a cast of Red frozen in ice there and contacted Blaine. Before all of the information could be exchanged, he found out that Pewter City was under attack by a group of Bruno's Machop that was searching for Brock's Boulder Badge, and he left to protect it.

Gold, Silver & Crystal arc

A few years later, he, along with Erika and Misty, traveled to Johto for the Gym Leader Tournament at the Indigo Plateau, where he faced off against the expert of the newly discovered Steel-type, Jasmine. He lost the match and later fought against Team Rocket on the Magnet Train.

Pokémon

This listing is of Brock's Pokémon in Pokémon Adventures.

On hand

Geodude (×6) ♂

Debut	Onix Is On!

Main article: Brock's Geodude

Brock owns six Geodude, nicknamed Geoone, Geotwo, Geothree, and so on. One of them appeared in Onix Is On! watching the battles with his Trainer. The other five first appeared in Putting It On The Line...Against Arcanine. They often grasp each others' wrists in order to circle around Brock to protect him. During the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc, they used their Magnitude to stop the Magnet Train. However, the impact sent it off course, causing it to almost crash before it was saved by Red's Snorlax.

Onix ♂

Debut	Onix Is On!

Main article: Brock's Onix

Onix is arguably Brock's most powerful Pokémon and is apparently well known for its speed, which causes shock waves when it moves. Onix was first used in battle against Red's Pika. Despite the type advantage, Onix was defeated by the small Electric type after it came to fight for Red of its own will. Three years later, Onix was sent out by Brock to use as a bridge when a bridge in the Tohjo Falls went out while Brock, Erika and Misty were heading to Johto, during which Misty is joined by Suicune. However, it itself collapsed when they were all attacked by a large group of Zubat, Golbat and Crobat. Once the group finally made it to the Indigo Plateau, Brock used Onix in his battle with Jasmine. It lost to Jasmine's Steelix, which he initially mistook as an Onix of a different variety due to its rock covering used to hide the fact that it was a new, undiscovered species at the time.

Kabuto → Kabutops

Debut	Striking Golduck

Brock met Kabutops when it was a Kabuto in the Pewter Museum of Science during the Elite Four's invasion of Kanto, and received and later evolved it for protecting it during the ordeal. It knows many ancient attacks and is a very powerful member of Brock's team; it was able to easily hold its own against Jasmine's Amphy, nearly winning him the match despite the type disadvantage.

Kabutops's only known move is Ancient Power, and its Ability is Battle Armor.

Given away

Graveler ♂

Debut	Onix Is On!

Brock's Graveler was first seen as he watched Red battle the Trainers in the Pewter Gym. Later on, Brock gave him to Yellow, who named him Gravvy. He has since evolved it into a Golem.

Graveler's known moves are Mega Punch, Rock Throw, Take Down, and Defense Curl, and his Ability is Sturdy.

In the Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure manga

Brock's only appearance in Pocket Monsters HGSS Jō's Big Adventure was in a flashback along with his Onix.

In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga

Brock debuts in Take Out The Rival Onix!!. Before Red arrived in Pewter City, Green got there and took Brock on. However, Brock was brutally strong as he managed to knock Green and his Charmander back into a window. The impact caused him to tell Red about Brock's strength. Despite Green's advice, Red decides to go to the Gym anyway. Red notices Brock's collection of Pokémon he had caught over the years and one of them turned out to be Clefairy's cousin, Pikachu. Brock then came and Red had his first Gym battle with him. Red used Clefairy while Brock used Onix. Clefairy managed to defeat Onix by having it chase its own tail, earning Red the Boulder Badge.

Brock reappears in Clefairy, Form Teacher Of Class 1P!! in a form of a cameo. He is seen wearing his outfit from Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen.

Trivia

• In Red, Blue, Yellow, FireRed, and LeafGreen, all of Brock's Pokémon are part Ground-type as well as part Rock-type.
• Despite being a Rock-type expert, none of Brock's Pokémon in Generation I know any Rock-type moves, only knowing Normal-type moves. This was changed in FireRed and LeafGreen.
• In Generation I, Brock's Onix knows Bind at levels 12 and 14, despite Onix not learning the move until level 15.
• Brock is one of two Gym Leaders not to give the player a TM of his specialty type, the other being Falkner. This is only true in Generation I, however, as in FireRed and LeafGreen, Brock's chosen TM changed from TM34 (Bide) to TM39 (Rock Tomb).
• During his Gym battle in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock uses a Rhyhorn with the Ability Sturdy, even though Rhyhorn cannot normally have that Ability.
• In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock trades the player a Rhyhorn knowing Thunder Fang (an Egg Move) in exchange for a Bonsly. This may be a reference to his anime counterpart, who is a Pokémon Breeder and once owned a Bonsly.
• As seen in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock's Trainer ID number is 06845.
• Out of all of Brock's Pokémon in the core series games, only three do not suffer from a double weakness to Grass: Rampardos, Aerodactyl and Tyranitar.
• In the Pokémon Stadium series, Brock has been shown with several non-Rock-type Pokémon that his anime counterpart would later come to own, namely Golbat in Stadium's Round 2 fight, Forretress in Stadium 2's Round 1 fight, and Steelix in Stadium 2's Round 2 fight.
• Brock shares his French name (Pierre) with Steven, the Champion of the Hoenn region.
• According to Ken Sugimori, Brock wasn't originally planned to be the first Gym Leader in Red and Blue.
• Brock is voiced by Tom Bauer in Pokémon Masters.
