In the official Japanese D/P stickerbook, which includes Gym Leader stickers, all names are spelt in Romaji. メリッサ is romanised [[Melissa]] (we already use this romanisation), マキシ is romanised [[Maxi]] (again, we already use that). However, there are three romanisation which we did not use. There are: デンジ as Denzi (instead of Denji) and トウガン as Tougan (instead of Tōgan) and ヒョウタ as Hyouta (instead of Hyōta). Since they're from official stickerbook, they are trademarked romanisation and we must use them. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 17:16, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

==6 Episodes==

It says Roark had six appearances in the anime, the most of a normal gym leader. Does Norman not count because he's May father?--[[User:Dman dustin|Dman dustin]] 05:51, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

== Hometown ==

In the infobox it says his hometown is Canalave City. In the anime, however, it was made clear that his family is from Oreburg and Byron moved to Canalave to become the Gym Leader.

Is it different between the games and anime? Was it mentioned in the games that Roark is originally from Canalave? If so, we should put "Canalave (games), Oreburg (anime)". Comments? --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 17:18, 23 May 2009 (UTC)
:Byron was originally the Gym Leader of Oreburgh, but then later went to Canalave to become the Gym Leader there. He offered Riley the post of Gym Leader of Oreburgh, but he refused, as there was Roark to consider.
:I think his hometown's still Oreburgh. '''<span style="font-family: Verdana;">~ [[User:Sol|<span style="color:#0080ff;">sol</span>]][[User talk:Sol|<span style="color:#4090ff;">ar</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Sol|<span style="color:#a8d3ff;">is</span>]]</span>''' 17:24, 23 May 2009 (UTC)

== Pronunciation ==

This has been bugging me for ages, how do you pronounce Roark's name?  Is it ''Row''-uk, or ''Rork'', or something else entirely?  [[User:Taromon777|<span style="color:turquoise; font-family:Arial Black">'''''Taromon'''''</span>]] 10:46, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
:Probably the best way to know is to listen to an anime episode and see how they pronounce it. I've been pronouncing it as row-ark, but that may be wrong as well. [[User:Ikarishipper900|Ikarishipper900]] 02:49, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
::According to the anime, it is pronounced ''Rork''. In the future, please pay attention to the time stamps. We usually don't allow replies to comments 6 months and older. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 04:28, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
