Bruno was primarily a villain. He challenged {{adv|Red}} to a Pokémon battle in a remote area and fought him evenly, defeating [[Poli]] and injuring his [[Pika]]chu and [[Gyara]]dos. Afterwards, his comrades [[Agatha]] and [[Lorelei]] then offered a position on the Elite Four to Red for his battling prowess, but Red refused so Lorelei froze him using her expanding ice cuffs. Many of his Machop were seen to decoy [[Pewter City]] and keep Brock at bay before stealing his Badge.

Later, the Elite Four were at [[Cerise Island]] unleashing the final part of their plan: to destroy humanity. {{Adv|Bill}} and [[Lt. Surge]] encountered Bruno near an acidic river, with his two Onix acting as bridges. The battle took place with Bruno standing on one Onix, and his opponents standing on the other. When Yellow and Blaine came along it was also revealed that he put up a barrier to stop any intruders from entering so a fair battle could be fought. Bill and Lt. Surge eventually gained the upper hand by combining {{p|Exeggcute}}'s {{m|Egg Bomb}} with {{p|Electrode}}'s {{m|Explosion}} to make the Onix collapse and make them all fall except Lt. Surge had his {{p|Magneton}} create a {{m|Barrier}} to keep them elevated. It later was revealed that Bruno really used his Hitmonlee's legs to keep him hanging on, and Agatha's mind-controlling armbands then forced him to try and drag Surge down to the acid, only to be saved by a stranger with a [[Saur|Venusaur]] riding a bike. Red then came, revealed himself, and defeated Bruno using [[Vee]] with new found control of its evolutions.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===

Bruno first appears in ''[[PM034|Clefairy's Under Training!!]]''. When {{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}}, {{TP|Red|Clefairy}} and {{TP|Red|Pikachu}} were out in a garden, they notice Bruno training with his {{p|Hitmonlee}} and {{p|Hitmonchan}}. Bruno invites them over and the first thing he has them do was go under a waterfall. After the waterfall training, he has them break some bricks. Afterwards, Bruno has them meditate. During meditation, Clefairy, for some odd reason, decides to disrupt the training, much to everyone's ire. This is when Bruno reveals himself as one of the Elite Four. Clefairy then starts to mess up his hair which resulted in Clefairy getting booted out of the dojo.

* None of Bruno's sprites have ever shown him standing up.

* Bruno, [[Lance]], [[Koga]] and [[Caitlin]] are the only Elite Four members who have appeared in more than one generation (excluding [[remake]]s).

** Bruno, Lance, and Koga are the only members of the Elite Four who have appeared in all the generations prior to [[Generation V]]. Of the three, Bruno is the only one to always keep his status as an Elite Four member.

* Despite taking place three years later, Bruno's Pokémon are at a lower level in Generation II than they were in Generation I. The same thing happens to [[Lance]] and {{ga|Blue}}.
