==Quotes==
{{main|Chili/Quotes}}


*If the player's [[Starter Pokémon]] is {{p|Tepig}} or {{p|Oshawott}}
==In the anime==
:''"Aww, man! I was all fired up, too!"''
===Main series===
[[File:Chili anime.png|thumb|250px|left|Chili in the {{pkmn|anime}}]]
Chili debuted in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]'' alongside his brothers, and fellow [[Gym Leader]]s {{an|Cilan}} and [[Cress]]. Along with Cress, he made his first appearance when Cilan brought {{Ash}} to the Gym. He began offering Ash various items off the lunch menu, who declined, exclaiming he wanted to battle the Gym Leader. Chili and his brothers introduced themselves as the Leaders and gave Ash the choice of who he wanted to battle. In a first, Ash decided to battle all three brothers. Chili was the first to battle Ash and lost against his {{AP|Tepig}}.


*If the player's [[Starter Pokémon]] is {{p|Snivy}}
In ''[[BW006|Dreams by the Yard Full!]]'', Chili and his brothers presented Ash with the {{Badge|Trio}}. Later Chili and Cress said their goodbyes to Cilan, who decided to travel with Ash and {{an|Iris}}.
:''"Ta-da! The Fire-type scorcher Chili -- that's me -- will be your opponent!"''
:''"Yeeeeooow! Time to play with FIRE!! I'm the strongest of us brothers!"''


*After the first move
Cilan mentioned in ''[[BW010|A Rival Battle for Club Champ!]]'' that [[Trip]] had battled Chili and defeated his {{p|Pansear}} with his {{TP|Trip|Servine}}, earning himself the Trio Badge. He appeared in a flashback in ''[[BW019|A Connoisseur's Revenge!]]'', where he and Cress informed [[Burgundy]] that Cilan had gone on a journey and could not battle her again, so he battled her in Cilan's place and was defeated.
:''"As if that would work on my Pokémon!"''


*After sending out last Pokémon
At some point, Chili left the Striaton Gym on a journey, after becoming frustrated with a series of consecutive losses. He met up with Cilan, Ash, and Iris in [[Driftveil City]] in ''[[BW058|A Call for Brotherly Love!]]'', where he challenged Cilan to a battle. However, his Pansear was quickly defeated by [[Cilan's Pansage]]. Angered, Chili blamed the loss on Pansear, and Pansear ran away. Chili left to relieve his frustration by stuffing his face when Cilan approached him and offered to help, after learning from Cress that Chili's role as Gym Leader has suffered because of his consecutive losses. Chili apologized to Pansear and helped it try to learn {{m|Solar Beam}}. After successfully learning the [[move]] and refining his techniques, his Pansear had a battle with Ash and {{AP|Oshawott}} and won. Chili thanked his brother for his help and planned to return to the Striaton Gym.
:''"It's not over yet! One more left! This is where I give it my all!"''
[[file:Cilan Chili Cress young.png|thumb|250px|Young Chili with his brothers]]
Chili reappeared in a fantasy along with [[Cress]] in ''[[BW099|A Surface to Air Tag Battle Team!]]''. He also reappeared in flashbacks in ''[[BW103|Curtain Up, Unova League!]]'', and ''[[BW126|Crowning the Scalchop King!]]''. In addition, Chili made cameo appearances in the ending [[Let's Join Hands]] and in the ending credits of ''[[M16|Genesect and the Legend Awakened]]''.


*When defeated
In ''[[BW140|Survival of the Striaton Gym!]]'', Chili and Cress journeyed to [[Paladin Island]] and appealed to Cilan to protect the Striaton Gym by defeating [[Morana]]. Chili had rashly wagered ownership of the Gym on Morana's victory over all three brothers in response to her accusations of his being afraid. He returned to Striaton City once Cilan had defeated Morana.
:''"You got me. I am... burned... out..."''


*After being defeated
====Character====
:''"Whoa ho! You're on fire! Well, it's the Pokémon League's rule. Take this Gym Badge!"''
Chili, like his brothers, tends to speak about Pokémon in relation to their element. In Chili's case, his element is {{t|Fire}} and so he often talks about his fiery passion when battling. His personality also fits this motif, as Chili can be described as hotheaded and reckless. In times of anger Chili will always visit a donut shop to calm himself down. All the brothers use hand positions like rock, paper, and scissors - Chili tends to accentuate words with his fists.


*After the battle (regardless of the Starter Pokémon)
He is markedly confident and hopes to one day open a Fire-type [[Gym]]. However, ''[[BW058|A Call for Brotherly Love!]]'' revealed that Chili had been struggling after suffering consecutive losses as [[Gym Leader]]. With the help of {{an|Cilan}}'s [[Pokémon Connoisseur]] evaluation, Chili was able to refine his battle style. He learned that his "offense is the best defence" techniques were perfectly suited for battle and went on to help {{TP|Chili|Pansear}} master {{m|Solar Beam}} for a wider [[move]] set. Chili was also able to tap into his anger as a source of strength.
:''"I can't believe TMs can be used over and over! If you wanted, you could use one to teach all your Pokémon the same move!"''

Chili appeared in ''[[BW005|Triple Leaders, Team Threats!]]'' alongside fellow Gym Leaders {{an|Cilan}} and [[Cress]]. Along with Cress, he made his first appearance when serving {{Ash}}. Ash declined, and said he wanted to battle the [[Gym Leader]], and the three brothers introduced themselves. They followed Ash to the battleground where they revealed their Pokémon. Chili was the first to battle Ash, and lost.

Chili briefly appeared in the [[Pokémon Masters Animated Trailer]] as part of a team with his brothers [[Cilan]] and [[Cress]].

Chili, along with his brothers [[Cilan]] and [[Cress]], is one of the Leaders of the [[Striaton Gym]]. Despite each brother obtaining their job as Gym Leaders individually, they were all assigned to the same Gym. This decision was due to the types they specialized in being useful in teaching new {{pkmn|Trainer}}s about type matchups.


Pansear's known moves are {{m|Flamethrower}}, {{m|Fire Punch}} and {{m|Dig}}.}}
Like his brothers, Chili tends to keep his arms in a certain position. In his case, he keeps them held at his hips.


===Voice actors===
Chili debuted in ''[[PS469|Welcome to Striaton City!!]]'', where the Striaton Gym was visited by a young Trainer named {{adv|Black}}. Although only Black challenged the Gym, his friends {{adv|Cheren}} and {{adv|Bianca}} were allowed to participate as well. After completing the Gym puzzle, Black, Cheren, and Bianca faced the triplets in a three-on-three "Trio Battle". With their knowledge of type matchups, Chili and his brothers initially held the advantage, even after Chili's {{TP|Chili|Pansear}} was knocked out. Despite this, the battle ended in the Striaton Gym Leaders' loss when Black's [[Bo|Tep]] used {{TP|Cilan|Pansage}}'s fallen leaves to revive its fallen teammates. With only two active Pokémon on the Striaton Gym Leaders' side when the time limit ended, Black and his friends were declared the winners by default and were each awarded a {{Badge|Trio}} as proof of their victory.

The Shadow Triad proved to be very strong, and even after they [[evolution|evolved]] their Pokémon, Chili and his brothers were unable to defeat their opponents. The brothers were rescued by [[Kelden|Keldeo]], who had been watching the battle and determined the Gym Leaders to be the better humans.

Chili (Japanese: ポッド Pod) is one of the three Gym Leaders of Striaton City's Gym, known officially as the Striaton Gym. He specializes in Fire-type Pokémon. He gives the Trio Badge to Trainers who defeat him.

In the core series games

Chili appears in Pokémon Black and White as one of the Gym Leaders of the Striaton City Gym, alongside Cilan and Cress. This Gym is the first to be challenged by the player. Chili battles Trainers who choose Snivy as their first partner Pokémon. Trainers who defeat Chili will receive the Trio Badge, along with TM83 (Work Up).

During the two years between Pokémon Black and White and Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Chili, along with his brothers, retired from being Gym Leaders to train.

Chili in the anime

Chili debuted in Triple Leaders, Team Threats! alongside his brothers, and fellow Gym Leaders Cilan and Cress. Along with Cress, he made his first appearance when Cilan brought Ash to the Gym. He began offering Ash various items off the lunch menu, who declined, exclaiming he wanted to battle the Gym Leader. Chili and his brothers introduced themselves as the Leaders and gave Ash the choice of who he wanted to battle. In a first, Ash decided to battle all three brothers. Chili was the first to battle Ash and lost against his Tepig.

In Dreams by the Yard Full!, Chili and his brothers presented Ash with the Trio Badge. Later Chili and Cress said their goodbyes to Cilan, who decided to travel with Ash and Iris.

Cilan mentioned in A Rival Battle for Club Champ! that Trip had battled Chili and defeated his Pansear with his Servine, earning himself the Trio Badge. He appeared in a flashback in A Connoisseur's Revenge!, where he and Cress informed Burgundy that Cilan had gone on a journey and could not battle her again, so he battled her in Cilan's place and was defeated.

At some point, Chili left the Striaton Gym on a journey, after becoming frustrated with a series of consecutive losses. He met up with Cilan, Ash, and Iris in Driftveil City in A Call for Brotherly Love!, where he challenged Cilan to a battle. However, his Pansear was quickly defeated by Cilan's Pansage. Angered, Chili blamed the loss on Pansear, and Pansear ran away. Chili left to relieve his frustration by stuffing his face when Cilan approached him and offered to help, after learning from Cress that Chili's role as Gym Leader has suffered because of his consecutive losses. Chili apologized to Pansear and helped it try to learn Solar Beam. After successfully learning the move and refining his techniques, his Pansear had a battle with Ash and Oshawott and won. Chili thanked his brother for his help and planned to return to the Striaton Gym.

 
Young Chili with his brothers

Chili reappeared in a fantasy along with Cress in A Surface to Air Tag Battle Team!. He also reappeared in flashbacks in Curtain Up, Unova League!, and Crowning the Scalchop King!. In addition, Chili made cameo appearances in the ending Let's Join Hands and in the ending credits of Genesect and the Legend Awakened.

In Survival of the Striaton Gym!, Chili and Cress journeyed to Paladin Island and appealed to Cilan to protect the Striaton Gym by defeating Morana. Chili had rashly wagered ownership of the Gym on Morana's victory over all three brothers in response to her accusations of his being afraid. He returned to Striaton City once Cilan had defeated Morana.

Character

Chili, like his brothers, tends to speak about Pokémon in relation to their element. In Chili's case, his element is Fire and so he often talks about his fiery passion when battling. His personality also fits this motif, as Chili can be described as hotheaded and reckless. In times of anger Chili will always visit a donut shop to calm himself down. All the brothers use hand positions like rock, paper, and scissors - Chili tends to accentuate words with his fists.

He is markedly confident and hopes to one day open a Fire-type Gym. However, A Call for Brotherly Love! revealed that Chili had been struggling after suffering consecutive losses as Gym Leader. With the help of Cilan's Pokémon Connoisseur evaluation, Chili was able to refine his battle style. He learned that his "offense is the best defence" techniques were perfectly suited for battle and went on to help Pansear master Solar Beam for a wider move set. Chili was also able to tap into his anger as a source of strength.

Chili in Pokémon Adventures

Chili, along with his brothers Cilan and Cress, is one of the Leaders of the Striaton Gym. Despite each brother obtaining their job as Gym Leaders individually, they were all assigned to the same Gym. This decision was due to the types they specialized in being useful in teaching new Trainers about type matchups.

Like his brothers, Chili tends to keep his arms in a certain position. In his case, he keeps them held at his hips.

Chili debuted in Welcome to Striaton City!!, where the Striaton Gym was visited by a young Trainer named Black. Although only Black challenged the Gym, his friends Cheren and Bianca were allowed to participate as well. After completing the Gym puzzle, Black, Cheren, and Bianca faced the triplets in a three-on-three "Trio Battle". With their knowledge of type matchups, Chili and his brothers initially held the advantage, even after Chili's Pansear was knocked out. Despite this, the battle ended in the Striaton Gym Leaders' loss when Black's Tep used Pansage's fallen leaves to revive its fallen teammates. With only two active Pokémon on the Striaton Gym Leaders' side when the time limit ended, Black and his friends were declared the winners by default and were each awarded a Trio Badge as proof of their victory.

In The Shadow Triad, Chili, Cilan, and Cress confronted the Shadow Triad at the P2 Laboratory. The brothers were given the task of pursuing Team Plasma if the other Gym Leaders failed to protect the Dark Stone from them. The Shadow Triad proved to be very strong, and even after they evolved their Pokémon, Chili and his brothers were unable to defeat their opponents. The brothers were rescued by Keldeo, who had been watching the battle and determined the Gym Leaders to be the better humans. The Shadow Triad took that opportunity to try and capture Keldeo, forcing its mentors, Cobalion, Virizion, and Terrakion, to step in and rescue it, using their swords to send both the Gym Leaders and Shadow Triad flying.
