-'''[[Brock]]''' (Japanese: '''タケシ''' ''Takeshi'') is the [[Gym Leader|Leader]] of the [[Pewter City]] [[Pewter City Gym|Gym]] and one of the main characters of the {{pkmn|anime}}. In all forms of Pokémon canon, he is noted to specialize in {{type2|Rock}} Pokémon, though since his introduction has been seen to spread out, most especially in the anime.
+The '''[[Indigo Plateau]]''' serves as the capital for the [[Pokémon League]]. It is the final destination for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s competing in [[Indigo League|Indigo]] or [[Johto League]] [[Pokémon League#Competitions against the Elite Four|competitions]] against the [[Elite Four]]. This is the where the powerful [[Elite Four]] battle against {{pkmn|Trainer}}s in a final showdown of becoming a master Pokémon trainer, who may be challenged after defeating of all eight [[Gym Leaders]] of each respective [[region]]. In the anime, it is also the location of the [[Indigo Plateau Conference]], [[Grand Festival|Kanto Grand Festival]] and the Pokémon League Village.
-In the anime, Brock has been featured in every episode from his introduction in ''[[EP005|Showdown at Pewter City]]'' to the present, notably with the exception of a brief period of time during the [[Pokémon: The Adventures in the Orange Islands|Orange Islands arc]]. He is voiced by うえだゆうじ [[Yūji Ueda]] in the original Japanese and [[Eric Stuart]] ([[4Kids]]) and [[Bill Rogers]] ([[PUSA]]). He notably focuses more on caring for his Pokémon than battling them, a likely carryover from the care he had for [[Brock's siblings|his younger brothers and sisters]] while their parents, [[Lola]] and {{an|Flint}}, were away.
+The Indigo Plateau is located just north of {{ka|Victory Road}}, and east of [[Mt. Silver]]. In [[Generation I]] and {{gen|III}}, the only way to reach the Indigo Plateau is by going through {{rt|23|Kanto}}; however, in [[Generation II]] and {{gen|IV}}, the Indigo Plateau can be reached by going through {{rt|26|Kanto}}. In order to reach Indigo Plateau by foot, Trainers must venture through {{ka|Victory Road}}, a lengthy cave acting as a final test for Trainers.
-In the games, Brock is a noted [[fossil]] enthusiast, digging in [[Mt. Moon]], which is nearby his hometown, for rare fossils of Pokémon that went extinct eons before the present. Due to this, he is shown to have both a {{p|Kabutops}} and an {{p|Omastar}} when he is challenged in battle during [[Generation II]].

-Brock was featured in the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG]] in the {{TCG|Gym Heroes}} and {{TCG|Gym Challenge}} expansions, as well as in the Japan-exclusive {{TCG|Pokémon VS}} and {{TCG|5th Movie Half Deck|fifth}}, {{TCG|8th Movie Half Deck|eighth}}, {{TCG|9th Movie Half Deck|ninth}} movie {{TCG|half deck}}s. Of the cards belonging to him, most referenced either the anime or [[Pokémon Special]] manga versions of him.
