Brock appears in {{game5|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}} as the [[Gym Leader]] of the [[Pewter Gym]], which is the first [[Gym]] that the {{player}} challenges on their journey. He is one of the few truly serious professional [[Pokémon Trainer]]s in the [[Pewter City]] area, and many people respect and admire him. He is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses {{type|Rock}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} to complement this. He rarely laughs or drops his serious demeanor, but when he does, he finds it hard to stop. In his free time, he likes to dig for [[Fossil]]s in [[Mt. Moon]]. In addition to the {{badge|Boulder}}, Brock gives out {{TM|34|Bide}} in Red, Blue, and Yellow, and {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}} in FireRed and LeafGreen.

==In the anime==
====[[Pokémon Stadium 2]]====
===In the main series===
* Before battle
[[File:Brock anime DP.png|thumb|250px|Brock in the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}]]
:''"So you finally made it this far. I'm <sc>Brock</sc>. Bring it on!"''
{{main|Brock (anime)}}
:''"Have you ever seen the durability of rock <sc>Pokémon</sc>? Here goes!"''
In the anime, like later Gym Leaders, Brock appeared primarily as an opponent to {{Ash}} in his [[EP005|debut episode]]; unlike later Gym Leaders, he requested to join Ash on his journey, aiming to be the world's greatest {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}}. In doing so, Brock left the Gym in the hands of his father, {{ka|Flint}}, who had finally revealed himself to have returned from his journey. Brock advised Ash throughout the [[Kanto]] series, then left briefly during the [[Orange Archipelago]] arc to assist [[Professor Ivy]]. He returned to Ash's side in [[Johto]], and with brief returns to [[Pewter City]] at the end of each series, joined him for his journeys in [[Hoenn]] and [[Sinnoh]] as well; however, he now wants to become a Pokémon Doctor.
:''"When it comes to rock <sc>Pokémon</sc>, I'm the best! Come on!"''


Brock mainly provides an advisory role to the other main characters of the anime, being several years older than the rest of them. His knowledge of Pokémon battles is great, causing him to often referee matches between Ash and others. Brock also fancies himself as something of a ladies' man, though each time he hits on someone he is either rejected outright; pulled away by {{an|Misty}} or [[Max]]; or, more recently, {{m|Poison Jab}}bed by his {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}.
* Sending out first Pokémon
:''"Here! <Pokémon> is leading off!"''


===In Pokémon Origins===
* Sending out a new Pokémon
[[File:Brock Poké Balls PO.png|250px|thumb|left|Brock in Pokémon Origins]]
:''"<Pokémon>, go for it!"''
In [[Pokémon Origins]], Brock is the only Gym Leader to have a key role other than Giovanni. Much like his role in both the games, Brock is the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym.
:''"<Pokémon> is next!"''
:''"<Pokémon>, it's your call!"''
:''"Here's your chance, <Pokémon>!"''


Brock is first seen in ''[[PO01|File 1: Red]]'', watching a [[Pokémon battle]] between {{OBP|Red|Origins}} and {{OBP|Blue|Origins}}. After Red is defeated, Brock talks to Red and teaches him about the basics of Pokémon battling and training.
* [[Recall]]ing a Pokémon
:''"Good! Come back, <Pokémon>!"''
:''"It's futile! Come back!"''
:''"That's good, <Pokémon>!"''
:''"Well done! <Pokémon>, come back!"''


Later, Red discovers that Brock is the Gym Leader of Pewter City and goes to challenge Brock to earn his first Badge. There, they have a Gym battle in which Brock teaches Red about type matchups and strategy. Brock is shown to have many Pokémon, and selects Geodude and Onix when Red confirms that he has no [[Badge]]s. This implies that all Gym Leaders have Pokémon of varying strengths in reserve in order to keep each challenge a fair fight. After a tough battle, Red eventually defeats Brock by using all of his Pokémon to slowly weaken Brock's Onix until it falls. Having lost the battle, Brock awards Red with the Boulder Badge and {{TM|34|Bide}}.
* Own Pokémon faints
:''"<Pokémon>! We're done!"''
:''"Aack! That hurts!"''


Unlike most other characters in Pokémon Origins, whose designs were based on their {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} designs, Brock's design is more akin to his {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}} design.
* Player's Pokémon faints

==In the manga==
* If the player is defeated
===In the Ash & Pikachu manga===
:''"Looking good."''
{{main|Brock (anime)#In the Ash & Pikachu manga|Brock (anime)}}
Brock appears in [[Ash & Pikachu]], a {{pkmn|manga}} based on the Pokémon anime. Like in the anime, he is a traveling companion of {{Ash}} alongside {{an|Misty}}.


===In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
* After being defeated
{{main|Brock (anime)#In The Electric Tale of Pikachu manga|Brock (anime)}}
:''"The world is huge! I'm glad to have met you."''
As the {{pkmn|manga}} series [[The Electric Tale of Pikachu]] is based on the [[Pokémon anime]], {{an|Brock}} is a commonly recurring character, although he does not appear in every chapter and he does not travel with {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}} constantly.
:''"How could anyone break through my rock-hard defense..."''
:''"I was done in... I didn't know about that style of battling..."''


===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
* After winning
[[File:Ash and Brock MPJ.png|thumb|200px|Ash and Brock in Magical Pokémon Journey]]
:''"It's been a while since I had a battle like this."''
Brock, along with {{Ash}} and {{an|Misty}}, make cameo appearances in bonus chapters of the [[Magical Pokémon Journey]] manga. In the bonus chapters, Brock and co. have mistakenly wandered into the world Magical Pokémon Journey is set in. The bonus chapters chronicle their attempts to return to their own world (of the {{pkmn|anime}}) and their encounters with various aspects of the Magical Pokémon Journey canon which differ from the anime's canon (such as the use of [[Poké Ball]]s).
:''"Defense is crucial, after all."''
{{-}}
:''"Your <sc>Pokémon</sc> are good, too."''
===In the movie manga adaptations===
:''"Wouldn't you agree that defense is essential?"''
[[File:DP series trio.png|thumb|200px|Brock with his friends]]
As Brock has appeared in every movie prior to the {{series|Best Wishes}}, he has appeared in every manga adaptation of it. His team in the manga adaptations are the same as in the films.


===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
* If the battle ended in a draw
[[File:Brock Adventures.png|thumb|200px|Brock and his {{p|Geodude}}]]
:''"A draw? How is that possible?"''
Brock debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix Is On!]]'' of the {{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}, however he is mentioned earlier by {{adv|Blue}} in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'' about being bored by no one being able to defeat him, or even get past the preliminaries. To gain access to Brock, a Trainer must win several rounds of battles against special Trainers of the Gym, and all of those battles are watched by him from a special room.


Brock is a brave Trainer, and he assists [[Erika]] and [[Misty]] in their {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Team Rocket]]. He also gave {{adv|Yellow}} a {{p|Graveler}} after the good [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kanto]] battled [[Agatha]]'s mind-controlling {{p|Gastly}}. However, he is also shown to be quick to anger and restless in his search for a good battle, and when discovering that {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]], the only remaining Pokémon of his, was disobedient, deemed his wins "dumb luck" and sought for a finisher attack instantly. However, when the boy begins to gain his Pokémon's trust, it chooses to fight for him and defeats his Onix.
* If the player runs from the battle
:''"It's not like you to run."''


After [[Blaine]] figured out that Red must have been at [[Mt. Moon]] before going missing, Brock volunteered to search there, since Mt. Moon is closest to [[Pewter City]]. He then found a cast of Red frozen in ice there and contacted Blaine. Before all of the information could be exchanged, he found out that [[Pewter City]] was under attack by a group of [[Bruno]]'s {{p|Machop}} that was searching for Brock's {{badge|Boulder}}, and he left to protect it.

A few years later, he, along with Erika and Misty, traveled to [[Johto]] for the Gym Leader Tournament at the [[Indigo Plateau]], where he faced off against the expert of the newly discovered {{type|Steel}}, [[Jasmine]]. He lost the match and later fought against Team Rocket on the [[Magnet Train]].

Aside from being a Gym Leader, Brock also works as a security guard at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].

As Brock has appeared in every movie prior to the {{series|Best Wishes}}, he has appeared in every manga adaptation of it. His team in the manga adaptations are the same as in the films.


===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Brock debuts in the chapter ''[[PM003|Take Out The Rival Onix!!]]'' of the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga. Before {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} arrived in Pewter City, {{OBP|Green|Pocket Monsters}} got there and took Brock on. However, Brock was brutally strong as he managed to knock Green and his {{TP|Green|Charmander}} back into a window. The impact caused him to tell Red about Brock's strength. Despite Green's advice, Red decides to go to the Gym anyway. Red notices Brock's collection of Pokémon he had caught over the years and one of them turned out to be {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}'s cousin, {{TP|Red|Pikachu|Pikachu (Pocket Monsters)}}. Brock then came and Red had his first Gym battle with him. Red used Clefairy while Brock used {{TP|Brock|Onix}}. Clefairy managed to defeat Onix by having it chase its own tail, earning Red the {{badge|Boulder}}.

Aside from being a Gym Leader, Brock also works as a security guard at the [[Pewter Museum of Science]].
 
====History====
====={{chap|Red, Green & Blue}}=====
Brock debuts in ''[[PS005|Onix Is On!]]'', though he is mentioned earlier by {{adv|Blue}} in ''[[PS004|Wanted: Pikachu!]]'', who described him as being bored by no one being able to defeat him, or even get past the preliminaries. To gain access to Brock, a Trainer must win several rounds of battles against special Trainers of the Gym, and all of those battles are watched by him from a special room.
 
Brock is a brave Trainer, and he assists [[Erika]] and [[Misty]] in their {{pkmn|battle}}s against [[Team Rocket]]. He also gave {{adv|Yellow}} a {{p|Graveler}} after the good [[Gym Leader]]s of [[Kanto]] battled [[Agatha]]'s mind-controlling {{p|Gastly}}. However, he is also shown to be quick to anger and restless in his search for a good battle, and when discovering that {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]], the only remaining Pokémon of his, was disobedient, deemed his wins "dumb luck" and sought for a finisher attack instantly. However, when the boy begins to gain his Pokémon's trust, it chooses to fight for him and defeats his Onix.
 
====={{chap|Yellow}}=====
After [[Blaine]] figured out that Red must have been at [[Mt. Moon]] before going missing, Brock volunteered to search there, since Mt. Moon is closest to [[Pewter City]]. He then found a cast of Red frozen in ice there and contacted Blaine. Before all of the information could be exchanged, he found out that [[Pewter City]] was under attack by a group of [[Bruno]]'s {{p|Machop}} that was searching for Brock's {{badge|Boulder}}, and he left to protect it.
 
====={{chap|Gold, Silver & Crystal}}=====
A few years later, he, along with Erika and Misty, traveled to [[Johto]] for the Gym Leader Tournament at the [[Indigo Plateau]], where he faced off against the expert of the newly discovered {{type|Steel}}, [[Jasmine]]. He lost the match and later fought against Team Rocket on the [[Magnet Train]].


Brock reappears in ''[[PMRSs1|Clefairy, Form Teacher Of Class 1P!!]]'' in a form of a cameo. He is seen wearing his outfit from {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}.

|desc={{p|Onix}} is arguably Brock's most powerful Pokémon and is apparently well known for its speed, which causes shock waves when it moves. Onix was first used in battle against {{adv|Red}}'s [[Pika]]. Despite the type advantage, Onix was defeated by the small Electric type after it came to fight for Red of its own will. Three years later, Onix was sent out by Brock to use as a bridge when a bridge in the [[Tohjo Falls]] went out while Brock, Erika and Misty were heading to Johto, during which Misty is joined by {{p|Suicune}}. However, it itself collapsed when they were all attacked by a large group of {{p|Zubat}}, {{p|Golbat}} and {{p|Crobat}}. Once the group finally made it to the Indigo Plateau, Brock used Onix in his battle with [[Jasmine]]. It lost to [[Jasmine's Steelix]], which he initially mistook as an Onix of a different variety due to its rock covering used to hide the fact that it was a new, undiscovered species at the time.}}

==Trivia==
{{cardlist/header|Brock's Pokémon|Fighting|char=yes}}
* In {{5v2|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, all of Brock's Pokémon are part {{type|Ground}} as well as part {{type|Rock}}.
{{cardlist/entry|cardname={{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Brock's Rhydon|2}}|type=Fighting|enset=Gym Heroes|enrarity=Rare Holo|ennum=2/132|jpset=Leaders' Stadium|jprarity=Rare Holo|jpset2=Nivi City Gym}}
* Despite being a Rock-type [[Type expert|expert]], none of Brock's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in [[Generation I]] know any Rock-type [[move]]s, only knowing {{type|Normal}} moves. This was changed in FireRed and LeafGreen.
{{cardlist/entry|cardname={{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Brock's Golem|20}}|type=Fighting|enset=Gym Heroes|enrarity=Rare|ennum=20/132|jpset=Leaders' Stadium|jprarity=Rare}}
* In Generation I, Brock's {{p|Onix}} knows {{m|Bind}} at [[level]]s 12 and 14, despite Onix not learning the move until level 15.
{{cardlist/entry|cardname={{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Brock's Onix|21}}|type=Fighting|enset=Gym Heroes|enrarity=Rare|ennum=21/132|jpset=Nivi City Gym}}
* Brock is one of two [[Gym Leader]]s not to give the {{player}} a [[TM]] of his specialty type, the other being [[Falkner]]. This is only true in Generation I, however, as in FireRed and LeafGreen, Brock's chosen TM changed from {{TM|34|Bide}} to {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}}.
{{cardlist/entry|cardname={{TCG ID|Gym Heroes|Brock's Rhyhorn|22}}|type=Fighting|enset=Gym Heroes|enrarity=Rare|ennum=22/132|jpset=Nivi City Gym}}
* During his Gym battle in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Brock uses a {{p|Rhyhorn}} with the [[Ability]] {{a|Sturdy}}, even though Rhyhorn cannot normally have that Ability.

{{TFG ID|Next Quest|Brock|39}} appears as a rare {{TFG|Trainer figure}} in the launch set, {{TFG|Next Quest}}, of the [[Pokémon Trading Figure Game]].

==Trivia==
{| class="roundy" style="background:#{{rock color light}}; border: 3px solid #{{rock color}}"
* In {{5v2|Red|Blue|Yellow|FireRed|LeafGreen}}, all of Brock's Pokémon are part {{type|Ground}} as well as part {{type|Rock}}.
* Despite being a Rock-type [[Type expert|expert]], none of Brock's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} in [[Generation I]] know any Rock-type [[move]]s, only knowing {{type|Normal}} moves. This was changed in FireRed and LeafGreen.
* In Generation I, Brock's {{p|Onix}} knows {{m|Bind}} at [[level]]s 12 and 14, despite Onix not learning the move until level 15.
* Brock is one of two [[Gym Leader]]s not to give the {{player}} a [[TM]] of his specialty type, the other being [[Falkner]]. This is only true in Generation I, however, as in FireRed and LeafGreen, Brock's chosen TM changed from {{TM|34|Bide}} to {{TM|39|Rock Tomb}}.
* During his Gym battle in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}, Brock uses a {{p|Rhyhorn}} with the [[Ability]] {{a|Sturdy}}, even though Rhyhorn cannot normally have that Ability.
* In HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock trades the player a Rhyhorn knowing {{m|Thunder Fang}} (an [[Egg Move]]) in exchange for a {{p|Bonsly}}. This may be a reference to his {{an|Brock|anime counterpart}}, who is a {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} and once owned a [[Brock's Sudowoodo|Bonsly]].
* As seen in HeartGold and SoulSilver, Brock's [[Trainer ID number]] is 06845.
* Out of all of Brock's Pokémon in the [[core series]] games, only three do not suffer from a double weakness to {{t|Grass}}: {{p|Rampardos}}, {{p|Aerodactyl}} and {{p|Tyranitar}}.
* In the [[Pokémon Stadium series]], Brock has been shown with several non-Rock-type Pokémon that his anime counterpart would later come to own, namely {{p|Golbat}} in {{eng|Pokémon Stadium|Stadium}}'s Round 2 fight, {{p|Forretress}} in {{pkmn|Stadium 2}}'s Round 1 fight, and {{p|Steelix}} in Stadium 2's Round 2 fight.
