In the [[anime]], Brock is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] who is currently travelling with [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]], [[May]], and [[Max]] through the [[Hoenn]] region. His Japanese voice actor is うえだゆうじ ''[[Yūji Ueda]]'', and his English voice actor is [[Eric Stuart]]. He originally trained [[Rock (type)|Rock-type]] [[Pokémon]], but has, since the beginning of the anime, diversified. He makes scrumptious [[Pokémon food]], and he hits on every pretty girl he meets, particularly [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Nurse Joy]]- both of whom he sings about in the English-language ''Pokémon Karaokémon'' song "[[Two Perfect Girls]]". He also sings the ending theme ''タケシのパラダイス'' ''Takeshi's Paradise'', which is about pretty girls. | In the [[anime]], Brock is a [[Pokémon Breeder]] who is currently travelling with [[Ash Ketchum|Ash]], [[May]], and [[Max]] through the [[Hoenn]] region.

His family life deserves a mention, owing to it being most peculiar. His father, [[Flint]], left home to become a great trainer. When he never returned, his mother, [[Lola]], up and left them, leaving Brock to take care of his siblings by himself (the English version of ''[[EP005|Showdown in Pewter City]]'' has Flint claming she died, although some believe that he was lying). It turned out Flint considered himself a failure and was selling rocks at the edge of town. When Brock left to journey with Ash and [[Misty]], he left Flint in charge of the Pewter Gym. | His family life deserves a mention, owing to it being most peculiar.

Brock only became the Gym Leader as he felt a responsibility to it and he admitted to Ash that he prefers to care for Pokémon. As Flint took back control of the Gym a few minutes later, Brock was allowed to follow his dream. Most notably, he took care of a [[Brock's Vulpix|Vulpix]] that belonged to a breeder named [[Susie]]. Shortly before Vulpix was returned, Brock used it in a Pokémon Beauty contest | Brock only became the Gym Leader as he felt a responsibility to it and he admitted to Ash that he prefers to care for Pokémon.

Brock briefly left the show during the Orange Islands saga to work for [[Professor Ivy]] on [[Valencia Island]] and so is only seen in a couple of cameos in the second movie. While there, something happened that will probably remain secret as Brock will only huddle and say "that name" whenever he is asked about it. (Brock does mention his work for her in ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', though this is again dub added.) After this incident, Brock returned to Kanto where he was found by [[Delia Ketchum]], who helped him to regain his strength. Brock then became a rival to [[Mimey]] until he rejoined Ash and travelled through [[Johto]]. | Brock briefly left the show during the Orange Islands saga to work for [[Professor Ivy]] on [[Valencia Island]] and so is only seen in a couple of cameos in the second movie.

Upon his return home after journeying through Johto, Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the gym, turning the Rock-type haven into a {{t|Water}}-type den. Brock battled her for the honor of Rock-types and won, promising his brother [[Forest]] that he would become Gym Leader someday. | Upon his return home after journeying through Johto, Brock was dismayed to find that his mother had returned and commandeered the gym, turning the Rock-type haven into a {{t|Water}}-type den.

Brock always has his eyes closed, and the only times we see them open are when they are forced open from a hit with [[Ash's Charizard|Charmander]]'s {{m|Flamethrower}} in ''[[EP032|The Ninja Poké-Showdown]]'', and when he makes a face for {{p|Larvitar}} in ''[[EP260|A Crowning Achievement]]''. | After that, Brock continued to follow Ash through [[Hoenn]], along with their new friends [[May]] and [[Max]], and then through Kanto again as Ash took on the [[Battle Frontier]]. He is joining Ash and [[Hikari]] in [[Shin'ō]]. Each time Ash travels to a new region, Brock briefly leaves to visit home, but returns several episodes into the new saga. | ||

There is a heated debate about what race Brock is, as many think he may be black, Latino, or Asian. | |||
