'''Cheren''' (Japanese: '''チェレン''' ''Cheren'') is a [[rival]] character in {{game|Black and White|s}}, and the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Aspertia City]]'s [[Gym]], known officially as the [[Aspertia Gym]], in [[Pokémon Black and White Versions 2|Pokémon Black 2 and White 2]].

Cheren is a childhood friend of the {{player}} who also lives in the starting town of [[Nuvema Town]]. While he holds a greater knowledge in Pokémon than his friends and tends to offer the player advice during the course of their journey, his comments are often witty and intellectual. He also misunderstands [[Bianca]]'s humor often, to her dismay. While [[Professor Juniper]] describes him as being very honest, she also remarks that he can be 'a little difficult'; his impatience in particular is often seen throughout the earlier stages of his journey. He is also described as being quite judgmental by [[Alder]].
Cheren is a childhood friend of the {{player}} who also lives in the starting town of [[Nuvema Town]]. As he holds a greater degree of knowledge about Pokémon than his friends and tends to offer the player advice during the course of their journey, his comments are often witty and intellectual. He also misunderstands [[Bianca]]'s humor often, to her dismay. While [[Professor Juniper]] describes him as being very honest, she also remarks that he can be 'a little difficult'; his impatience in particular is often seen throughout the earlier stages of his journey. He is also described as being quite judgmental by [[Alder]].


In keeping with the theme of truth and ideals often seen in Black and White, Cheren represents those who pursue ideals—more precisely, as [[N]] pointed out in [[Chargestone Cave]], the ideal of strength. His goal is to become the {{pkmn|Champion}} and he always strives to become stronger. However, Alder asked him for the first time why he strives to become stronger, he was quite unsure of his reasons. He then starts to ponder to himself how to do so—something that Alder said he used to do with his partner Pokémon as well—and what exactly it means to be strong. Alder also remarked that Cheren is a lot like [[Marshal]].

Alder also remarked that Cheren is a lot like [[Marshal]].


Like the player and Bianca, Cheren receives a [[starter Pokémon]] as a gift from [[Professor Juniper]] at the start of the game. He always chooses the starter with a [[type]] advantage over the player's starter. The player will encounter and battle him several times throughout the game. After the main storyline, Cheren can be found on {{rt|5|Unova}}. After talking to him there, he moves to {{OBP|Victory Road|Black and White}} where he can be battled once a day.

Cheren was mentioned by [[Professor Juniper]] in ''[[BW109|New Places... Familiar Faces!]]'', where she explained that he was a new [[Gym Leader]] located at [[Aspertia City]]. Cheren physically appeared in ''[[BW111|There's a New Gym Leader in Town!]]''. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} met him at the [[Aspertia Gym]], where they learned that he was also a teacher at the [[Pokémon academy|Trainers' School]], which was located at the [[Gym]]. When {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Iris|Axew}} accidentally caused loud noises on the School's PA, making all the School's Pokémon run wildly around, Ash, Iris, and Cilan helped Cheren to gather them.

Cheren appeared in the [[Pokémon Black Version 2 and Pokémon White Version 2 Animated Trailer]]. He first had a Gym battle against {{ga|Rosa}}, using his {{p|Stoutland}} against her {{p|Serperior}}. He had a little difficulty after Stoutland was hit by Serperior's {{m|Slam}}. However, he managed to have Stoutland overcome {{m|Frenzy Plant}} using {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Rosa then commented that she was just getting started in the battle, and Cheren agreed with her. Later on, he was seen with {{ga|Nate}} and [[Hugh]] on the [[Plasma Frigate]]. As {{tc|Team Plasma Grunt}}s surrounded the three of them, Cheren commented on how bothersome they were and prepared to battle them.

He first appears with Bianca when Monta is attempting to capture a {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Patrat}} and {{p|Watchog}}. Monta is just about to capture the Watchog which Cheren tells him that it is not the right way. He explains to Monta to remember that when two Pokémon come out at the same time, one should knock out the one they don't want before they can get the one that they do want. Cheren suddenly decides for all of them to take their Pokémon journey together, which a man on his bike overhears. He starts insulting them making him and Monta angry.

* In Black and White, if the player character manages to beat Bianca in their first battle without taking any damage, Cheren will make a note on how the player somehow won without taking any damage. As the scenario is highly unlikely to ever happen, the dialog is next to impossible to actually trigger.
