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.

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 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 {{tc|Surfer}}s like himself.
 
Brawly debuted in ''[[AG020|Brave the Wave]]''. {{Ash}} became extremely annoyed when Brawly started constantly postponing their [[Gym]] {{pkmn|battle}} in favor of going surfing. As such, he interrupted their morning surf session, but Brawly was unfazed by this and even helped Ash recover {{AP|Pikachu}} from {{TRT}}.
 
After seeing Pikachu send Team Rocket blasting off, Brawly offered Ash a Gym challenge. Ash eagerly accepted and the pair walked over the [[Dewford Gym]] battlefield. {{AP|Taillow}} took on Brawly's {{p|Machop}} in the first round, but it was defeated by a single {{m|Cross Chop}}. {{AP|Treecko}} managed to defeat Machop with its speed and a direct {{m|Pound}} attack. Brawly then defeated Ash with his newly-evolved {{TP|Brawly|Hariyama}}, and in part because of Ash's own arrogance.
 
Afterwards, Ash caught up with Brawly on the beach, and Brawly explained the importance of his surf training to his battling strategy. Ash took Brawly's advice and trained for several weeks on [[Dewford Island]] in anticipation of a [[rematch]]. Ash even went so far as to copy Brawly's wave-training to teach his own Pokémon to dodge and resist attacks.
 
In ''[[AG030|A Meditite Fight!]]'', Brawly interrupted Ash's battle against his student {{ho|Shauna}} because of a brewing storm. Brawly led everyone, some [[wild Pokémon]], and even Team Rocket to a cave on the shore to wait for the storm to pass. When the storm ended, Team Rocket attempted to steal Pikachu, but Brawly's Hariyama quickly sent the trio blasting off. Afterwards, Brawly refereed a match between Ash and Shauna. While Ash won, Brawly was thrilled to see Shauna had connected with her {{p|Meditite}} and officially made her one of his apprentices. He also agreed to a rematch against Ash at an 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 {{Badge|Knuckle}} in ''[[AG031|Just One of the Geysers!]]''.


Brawly reappeared in ''[[AG030|A Meditite Fight!]]'', where Ash battled one of Brawly's [[Shauna (Hoenn)|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!]]''.
He reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]'' and ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]''.


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.
===Character===
Brawly is calm and approachable. He also has a great respect for nature, as revealed in ''[[AG030|A Meditite Fight!]]''.


He reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[AG075|Whiscash and Ash]]'', [[AG120]], and ''[[AG149|Wheel of Frontier]]''.
Like his mentor [[Chuck]], Brawly's {{pkmn|battle}} style is based on focus. At first, Ash was unable to realize that Brawly's surf training had helped him develop his Pokémon's unique dodges and concentrated balance techniques. Surfing has taught them to concentrate their center of gravity by bending their legs, while their upper bodies are prepared to launch or fend off an attack.

Brawly debuts in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}. He is an avid surfer who has mastered the secrets of "subtlety" (Japanese: '''柔''' ''Jū; meaning soft''), a fighting style that makes use of turning an opponent's attack back at the user to damage them. He is also well versed in "brutality" (Japanese: '''剛''' ''Gō; meaning sturdy''), a fighting style he learned from his friend, [[Bruno]], that has the user attacking the opponent head-on.
====History====
=====Past=====
As in the [[Generation III]] {{pkmn|games}}, Brawly used to train with [[Bruno]].


He first appears surfing in Dewford Town, when {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Wailord|Lorry}} sneezes, causing a giant wave. Sapphire apologizes for the incident, but Brawly states that it was all right, as he enjoyed surfing on the wave. He then reveals himself to be the Gym Leader, much to Sapphire's surprise. He warns Sapphire to challenge him before he goes on a days-long trip the next day. Sapphire promises and heads into [[Granite Cave]] to train for her Gym battle in the morning. After Sapphire finishes her training, both have their battle at the Dewford Gym. Sapphire manages to easily defeat Brawly's first Pokémon, but she struggles with his {{TP|Brawly|Makuhita}}. With the power of Jū, Brawly counters many of Sapphire's attacks, which eventually leads into his Makuhita evolving into {{p|Hariyama}}. Sapphire comes out the victor when she uses her own variation of Jū to counter Hariyama, allowing her to defeat it and earn the Knuckle Badge.

Later, Brawly and the other Gym Leaders are called by [[Flannery]] to meet in [[Fortree City]]. They have a discussion on [[Team Magma]] and [[Team Aqua]] about whether or not one of the teams is evil and the other is good. As a surfer, Brawly sides with Team Aqua, since their goal of expanding the sea means he has more places to surf.

When {{p|Groudon}} and {{p|Kyogre}} are awakened, they begin causing {{a|Drought|droughts}} and {{a|Drizzle|downpours}} throughout Hoenn. Brawly and [[Roxanne]] are sent to the drought-plagued areas to face Groudon in battle. Despite their best efforts, Groudon proves to be too powerful for any of their attacks to damage it. They are later assisted by [[Wallace]], who also participates in the battle to stop Groudon, but all three are interrupted by the Three Fires of Team Magma, [[Blaise]], [[Tabitha]], and {{FB|Magma Admin|Courtney}}. The three grab Brawly, Roxanne, and Wallace and take them to [[Lilycove City]] to prevent the Gym Leaders from stopping Groudon any further. Brawly is taken to [[Lilycove Museum]], where Blaise faces him in battle. With his illusions, Blaise scares Brawly by making it so that the paintings in the museum appear to be coming to life. Having learned the secrets of Gō from his trip with Bruno, Brawly uses force to break through the illusions and defeats Blaise.

After both Team Magma and Team Aqua are defeated and Groudon and Kyogre returned to their deep slumber, Brawly celebrated the victory with his allies and thanked Sapphire and {{adv|Ruby}} for their assistance in the battle.

In the {{chap|Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire}}, Brawly, along with various people from around Hoenn, is called to [[Sootopolis City]] to assist in stopping [[Grand Meteor Delta]], a giant meteoroid threatening to destroy the planet. When the plan to attack Grand Meteor Delta starts, Brawly and the others have their Pokémon attack the meteoroid at the same time. This, combined with the might of Mega {{DL|Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)|Rayquaza}}, successfully shatters Grand Meteor Delta into pieces.

Brawly appears in ''[[PMRS11|The Haunted Gym]]'' of Pokémon Ruby-Sapphire. He first appeared as Sableye's illusion when it was navigating {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} and his Pokémon in the dark [[Dewford Gym]]. The group thought that Brawly was real when he was flexing his muscles but it turned out to be a poster Sableye put up. As the group went after Sableye after tricking them into believing that it was Brawly, they saw the real Brawly stuck in a {{p|Pelipper}}-shaped seat.

Brawly (Japanese: トウキ Touki) is the Gym Leader of Dewford Town's Gym, known officially as the Dewford Gym. Trainers who defeat him receive the Knuckle Badge. He is a young surfer who specializes in Fighting-type Pokémon.

In the games

Brawly's title is "A big wave in fighting." His strategy is direct physical moves. 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 Seven Island. He also seems to be good friends with Steven. In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, he helps Chaz train to challenge Gyms.

In addition to the Knuckle Badge, Brawly gives out TM08 (Bulk Up) when defeated.

In the anime

Brawly in the anime

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.

Brawly debuted in Brave the Wave. Ash became extremely annoyed when Brawly started constantly postponing their Gym battle in favor of going surfing. As such, he interrupted their morning surf session, but Brawly was unfazed by this and even helped Ash recover Pikachu from Team Rocket.

After seeing Pikachu send Team Rocket blasting off, Brawly offered Ash a Gym challenge. Ash eagerly accepted and the pair walked over the Dewford Gym battlefield. Taillow took on Brawly's Machop in the first round, but it was defeated by a single Cross Chop. Treecko managed to defeat Machop with its speed and a direct Pound attack. Brawly then defeated Ash with his newly-evolved Hariyama, and in part because of Ash's own arrogance.

Afterwards, Ash caught up with Brawly on the beach, and Brawly explained the importance of his surf training to his battling strategy. Ash took Brawly's advice and trained for several weeks on Dewford Island in anticipation of a rematch. Ash even went so far as to copy Brawly's wave-training to teach his own Pokémon to dodge and resist attacks.

In A Meditite Fight!, Brawly interrupted Ash's battle against his student Shauna because of a brewing storm. Brawly led everyone, some wild Pokémon, and even Team Rocket to a cave on the shore to wait for the storm to pass. When the storm ended, Team Rocket attempted to steal Pikachu, but Brawly's Hariyama quickly sent the trio blasting off. Afterwards, Brawly refereed a match between Ash and Shauna. While Ash won, Brawly was thrilled to see Shauna had connected with her Meditite and officially made her one of his apprentices. He also agreed to a rematch against Ash at an islet off the coast of Dewford. Using his Pokémon's new techniques and his newly-caught Corphish, Ash was finally able to claim the Knuckle Badge in Just One of the Geysers!.

He reappeared in flashbacks in Whiscash and Ash and Wheel of Frontier.

Character

Brawly is calm and approachable. He also has a great respect for nature, as revealed in A Meditite Fight!.

Like his mentor Chuck, Brawly's battle style is based on focus. At first, Ash was unable to realize that Brawly's surf training had helped him develop his Pokémon's unique dodges and concentrated balance techniques. Surfing has taught them to concentrate their center of gravity by bending their legs, while their upper bodies are prepared to launch or fend off an attack.

Pokémon

This lsiting is of Brawly's known Pokémon in the anime:

Brawly's Machop
Machop
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 Taillow. Although Taillow kept using Wing Attack and hitting it, Machop kept getting up and eventually managed to knock Taillow out with a Cross Chop. Then, Ash used 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 Corphish.

It reappeared in a flashback in Which Wurmple's Which?.

Machop's known moves are Cross Chop and Karate Chop.

History

Past

As in the Generation III games, Brawly used to train with Bruno.

Ruby & Sapphire arc

Brawly first appears surfing in Dewford Town, when Sapphire's Lorry sneezes, causing a giant wave. Sapphire apologizes for the incident, but Brawly states that it was all right, as he enjoyed surfing on the wave. He then reveals himself to be the Gym Leader, much to Sapphire's surprise. He warns Sapphire to challenge him before he goes on a days-long trip the next day. Sapphire promises and heads into Granite Cave to train for her Gym battle in the morning. After Sapphire finishes her training, both have their battle at the Dewford Gym. Sapphire manages to easily defeat Brawly's first Pokémon, but she struggles with his Makuhita. With the power of Jū, Brawly counters many of Sapphire's attacks, which eventually leads into his Makuhita evolving into Hariyama. Sapphire comes out the victor when she uses her own variation of Jū to counter Hariyama, allowing her to defeat it and earn the Knuckle Badge.

Later, Brawly and the other Gym Leaders are called by Flannery to meet in Fortree City. They have a discussion on Team Magma and Team Aqua about whether or not one of the teams is evil and the other is good. As a surfer, Brawly sides with Team Aqua, since their goal of expanding the sea means he has more places to surf.

Brawly in the thirteenth chapter

When Groudon and Kyogre are awakened, they begin causing droughts and downpours throughout Hoenn. Brawly and Roxanne are sent to the drought-plagued areas to face Groudon in battle. Despite their best efforts, Groudon proves to be too powerful for any of their attacks to damage it. They are later assisted by Wallace, who also participates in the battle to stop Groudon, but all three are interrupted by the Three Fires of Team Magma, Blaise, Tabitha, and Courtney. The three grab Brawly, Roxanne, and Wallace and take them to Lilycove City to prevent the Gym Leaders from stopping Groudon any further. Brawly is taken to Lilycove Museum, where Blaise faces him in battle. With his illusions, Blaise scares Brawly by making it so that the paintings in the museum appear to be coming to life. Having learned the secrets of Gō from his trip with Bruno, Brawly uses force to break through the illusions and defeats Blaise.

After both Team Magma and Team Aqua are defeated and Groudon and Kyogre returned to their deep slumber, Brawly celebrated the victory with his allies and thanked Sapphire and Ruby for their assistance in the battle.

Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire arc

Brawly, along with various people from around Hoenn, is called to Sootopolis City to assist in stopping Grand Meteor Delta, a giant meteoroid threatening to destroy the planet. When the plan to attack Grand Meteor Delta starts, Brawly and the others have their Pokémon attack the meteoroid at the same time. This, combined with the might of Mega Rayquaza, successfully shatters Grand Meteor Delta into pieces.

Character

Brawly is an avid surfer. Prior to the Pokémon Adventures manga, he mastered the secrets of "subtlety" (Japanese: 柔 Jū; meaning soft), a fighting style that makes use of turning an opponent's attack back at the user to damage them. He is also well versed in "brutality" (Japanese: 剛 Gō; meaning sturdy), a fighting style he learned from his friend, Bruno, that has the user attacking the opponent head-on.

Pokémon

This listing is for Brawly's Pokémon in the Pokémon Adventures manga.

Brawly's Hariyama
Makuhita → Hariyama ♂
Main article: Brawly's Hariyama

Hariyama is Brawly's first known Pokémon. He debuted as a Makuhita surfing with his Trainer. Later, he evolved in Brawly's Gym battle against Sapphire, but it wasn't enough to win the battle. Since then, he has been used in several other battles.

Brawly's Machop

Brawly's Machoke

Later, he was revealed to have evolved into a Machoke when he and Brawly went to the Gym Leader meeting in Fortree City. During the battle against Groudon, Machoke was used to battle the Continent Pokémon, but was defeated by Thunder. During the battle against Blaise, Machoke held his own until the illusions caused him to become scared and run away.

Machoke's know moves are Focus Punch and Revenge, and his Ability is Guts.

Brawly in Pokémon Pocket Monsters

Brawly appeared in The Haunted Gym. He first appeared as Sableye's illusion when it was navigating Red and his Pokémon in the dark Dewford Gym. The group thought that Brawly was real when he was flexing his muscles but it turned out to be a poster Sableye put up. As the group went after Sableye after tricking them into believing that it was Brawly, they saw the real Brawly stuck in a Pelipper-shaped seat. Red and the Pokémon worked together to get him off and were successful. Brawly then thanked them in doing so and laughed at Clefairy after he got stuck in the seat.

Pokémon

Brawly's Sableye
Sableye
Sableye is Brawly's only known Pokémon. It is considered an unusual choice for him as it was not a Fighting-type Pokémon and it is immune to Fighting moves. Due to the Dewford Gym being dark, Sableye helped Red and his Pokémon navigate through. Sableye then tricked them into believing that Brawly was there but it turned out that Sableye was putting up a poster of him flexing his muscles. When Sableye did so again but this time, showing the group a doll, it ran off and the group chased after it. Clefairy found Sableye with the real Brawly when he kicked down a door in one of the rooms. It turned out that Sableye was feeding Brawly when he was stuck in a Pelipper-shaped seat. As the group freed Brawly from being stuck, Sableye and Brawly laughed at Clefairy when he became stuck in the seat.

None of Sableye's moves are known.
