Chuck's wife in the anime

Chuck's wife (Japanese: シジマの奥さん Shijima's wife) is the wife of the Cianwood City Gym Leader, Chuck. She first appeared in Pokémon Gold and Silver, and reappeared with the same role in Pokémon Crystal and Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In the core series games

Chuck's wife can be found standing outside the Cianwood Gym in Cianwood City. She will give the player HM02 (Fly) after the player defeats her husband. In Generation II, she will only give them the HM if talked to after defeating Chuck, but in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, she will walk up to the player and hand over the HM automatically after her husband is defeated. Also, in Generation IV only, she will give out Chuck's number for a rematch instead of Chuck himself after the player has entered the Hall of Fame, as Chuck is constantly training after his defeat.

Quotes

Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal

  • Before defeating Chuck
"You crossed the sea to get here? That must have been hard. It would be much easier if your Pokémon knew how to Fly... But you can't use Fly without this city's Gym Badge. If you beat the Gym Leader here, come see me. I'll have a nice gift for you."
  • After defeating Chuck
"You crossed the sea to get here? That must have been hard. It would be much easier if your Pokémon knew how to Fly... That's Cianwood's Gym Badge! Then you should take this HM."
"Teach Fly to your Pokémon. You will be able to Fly instantly to anywhere you have visited. My husband lost to you, so he needs to train harder. That's good, since he was getting a little chubby."
  • If talked to again
"My husband lost to you, so he needs to train harder. That's good, since he was getting a little chubby."

Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver

  • Before defeating Chuck
"You crossed the sea to get here? That must have been hard. It would be much easier if your Pokémon knew how to Fly... But you can't use Fly without this city's Gym Badge. If you beat the Gym Leader here, come see me. I'll have a nice gift for you."
  • After defeating Chuck

"Teach Fly to your Pokémon. You will be able to fly instantly to anywhere you have visited."
  • If talked to again
"My husband lost to you, so he needs to train harder. That's good, since he was getting a little chubby."
"His only hobby is to battle tough Trainers. Do you want to have my husband's phone number?"
Yes: "He takes a break from the pounding waterfall on Wednesday nights. He should be able to chat with you then."
No: "Oh, I see. My husband won't be a good match?"
  • If the player initially answers "No" to registering Chuck's number
"Do you want to exchange your number for my husband's?"
