Norman cares deeply for his family, wishing his children to have some quality time and good friends. | Norman cares deeply for his family, wishing his children to have some quality time and good friends. Norman is also very protective of his family. In ''[[AG003|There's no Place Like Hoenn]]'', Norman used his Vigoroth to retaliate against Team Rocket and get back May’s Torchic. And in ''[[AG069|Love, Petalburg Style!]]'' Team Rocket destroyed his i surprise gift for his wife, [[Caroline]] which angrily leads him to call his Slaking to immediately blasts Team Rocket off with its powerful {{m|Focus Punch}}. Norman’s aggressive stance is intimidating to Team Rocket. | ||
{{an|May}} and [[Max]] respect their father’s efforts. He made extensive efforts to ensure a ‘regular’ family life including coming home for lunch and playing with his children. Max claimed that Norman was capable of entering the [[Elite Four]] in ''[[AG070|Balance of Power]]''. | |||
Norman | In the broader community Norman is quite popular for both his looks and position as a [[Gym Leader]], with an enthusiastic fan base in [[North Petalburg]] and emerging image in [[Petalburg City]]. | ||
He is generally jovial and calm. However, at times, Norman can sometimes overlook things and cannot see the actual problem. | |||
In battle, Norman is intensely focussed and has perfected his Pokémon in both offense and defense tactics. Norman utilises his trio of {{p|Slakoth}}, {{p|Vigoroth}} and {{p|Slaking}} to confuse his opponents because they move at different speeds. Speed attacks worked poorly against Norman’s Slakoth. Norman gives his opponent credit for an excellent strategy and accepts a loss as critical to personal growth. He enjoys a challenge, wanting to see his opponent struggle to overcome his strategy and sheer power. However, he does not let his children watch the battle, thinking it would distract the challenger. | |||
