Henry Sword: Difference between revisions

|name=Henry

'''Henry''' (Japanese: '''剣創人''' ''Sōdo Tsurugi'') is a [[Pokédex holder|main character]] in [[Pokémon Adventures]].

Henry is an assistant to [[Professor Magnolia]], helping her research the [[Dynamax]] phenomenon. He is often referred to as (Japanese: '''そーちゃん''' ''Sō-chan'') by [[Shirudomiria Tate|Casey]] and Professor Magnolia.

Henry was born to a family of swordsmiths and was taught how to repair weapons. He used this knowledge to become a (Japanese: '''身具{{tt|職人|マイスター}}''' ''Tool Meister''), where he repairs various objects Pokémon use in {{pkmn|battle}}, such as his {{p|Sirfetch'd|Ransun}}'s leek lance or his {{p|Thwackey|Sutikkun}}'s sticks.

One year prior to the {{chap|Sword & Shield}}, Henry and Casey first met at the entrance of the [[Slumbering Weald]]. Despite it being forbidden to enter, they went inside to obtain a [[Wishing Star]] Casey spotted falling into the forest. They found two Wishing Stars, with Casey taking one for herself and giving the other to Henry as thanks for his help. Henry and Casey then found themselves surrounded by the [[Legendary Pokémon]] {{p|Zacian}} and {{p|Zamazenta}}. Realizing the two Pokémon were merely illusions, Henry and Casey passed through them, only to be knocked unconscious by a bright flash of light. After coming to, Henry discovered the [[Rusted Sword]] and [[Rusted Shield|Shield]] he was looking for had disappeared. Casey was distraught to find that her Pokémon had gone missing. After a failed search attempt, Henry and Casey decided the only way to find Casey's missing team members was to enter the Gym Challenge, hoping to use their fame to spread the word about the missing Pokémon.

Henry debuted in [[PASS01]]. He was first seen rescuing a young boy named [[Marvin]] from falling off a cliff. Later, Marvin was taken to Henry by Casey in order to properly thank him for saving his life earlier. After a brief introduction, Casey offered to let Marvin participate in a [[Dynamax]] simulation with her and Henry. Together, they fought and defeated a Dynamax {{p|Pangoro}} hologram, giving Marvin the confidence to set out on a Pokémon journey. Having received approval from his parents, Marvin joined the others on their quest to study Dynamax. Later, everyone found [[Leon]] on the outskirts of [[Wedgehurst]], trying to move a large flock of {{p|Wooloo}} off of some train tracks. Henry and Casey stepped in to help, driving off an {{p|Obstagoon}} that was terrorizing the Wooloo. After introducing themselves, Leon left to appear on a television program in [[Motostoke]]. To Marvin's surprise, Henry and Casey revealed they helped Leon hoping that their efforts would leave enough of an impression that he'd give them an endorsement for the Gym Challenge.

In [[PASS03]], a trio of {{pkmn2|wild}} {{p|Drednaw}} attacked Magnolia's trailer house. In order to battle the Bite Pokémon, Henry and Casey each received a [[Rotom Phone]] with a [[Pokédex]] function installed, officially making them both [[Pokédex holder]]s. With some assistance from {{p|Sobble}}, the Drednaw were defeated. Afterwards, Professor Magnolia suggested Marvin keep Sobble, which he happily accepted.

In [[PASS04]], Henry and the others arrived in the [[Wild Area]]. While they traveled, Shirudomiria was delivered a package that contained Gym Challenge uniforms for her and Henry. When a pair of {{tc|Team Yell Grunt}}s tried to destroy the uniforms, Henry and Casey pushed them into a [[Pokémon Den]], forcing the four to team up in a [[Max Raid Battle]] against the wild {{p|Gurdurr}} that lurked inside. Eventually, the Gurdurr was defeated and caught by Henry, but the Grunts' Pokémon were knocked out during the battle, forcing them to flee.

In [[PASS06]], Henry and Casey registered for the Gym Challenge in Motostoke. The group encountered [[Sonia]], a researcher and Magnolia's granddaughter. When the trailer car broke down, Magnolia asked the others to research the geoglyph in [[Turffield]] in her place. Along the way, on {{rt|3|Galar}}, Henry and the others met [[Hop]], [[Bede]], and [[Marnie]], a trio of Gym Challengers. They were unable to progress due to a large boulder blocking the entrance to [[Galar Mine]]. After Casey and the others moved the boulder and went ahead, Henry stayed behind to talk with Bede. Henry pointed out Bede was trying to protect the boulder and speculated his goal was to obtain Wishing Stars that could be found inside the mine. Later, the others gathered at [[Turffield Stadium]], where they watched Henry face [[Milo]] in a Gym battle and won. Once Casey won her match, she, Henry, and Marvin prepared to head off to the next Gym in [[Hulbury]].

In [[PASS08]], Henry trained with Marvin in [[Hulbury]] to prepare for his upcoming Gym battle. Though Marvin eventually called the battle off, {{p|Grookey|Sutikkun}} gained enough experience to [[Evolution|evolve]] into a {{p|Thwackey}}. Shortly afterwards, Henry and Marvin encountered [[Rose]], who revealed that Hulbury's Gym Leader [[Nessa]] also worked as a model. Later, everyone went to [[Hulbury Stadium]], where Henry faced Nessa in a Gym battle. Despite the power of Nessa's [[Gigantamax]] {{p|Drednaw}}, it lost to Sutikkun after it Dynamaxed, making Henry the winner. Afterwards, Henry and Sonia had dinner with Rose at the Captain's Table restaurant. Noting Sonia's study of the Dynamax phenomenon, Rose invited her to investigate the vault in [[Hammerlocke]].

In [[PASS10]], Henry was confronted by Bede, who had been infuriated after learning of Henry's dinner with Rose. Wanting Sōdo to retire from the Gym Challenge, Bede challenged him to a {{pkmn|battle}} but lost. Despite this, Bede revealed the reason he was collecting Wishing Stars was to help Rose.

In [[PASS12]], after completing the third Gym, Henry used his newly-obtained [[Rotom Bike]] to head to Hammerlocke. Upon arriving, he was greeted by [[Raihan]], the Hammerlocke Gym Leader, and challenged to a battle that ended in Raihan's victory. They went to the vault, only to find Sonia under attack by a wild {{p|Oranguru}}. Noticing that Oranguru was angered after Sonia accidentally stepped on its fan, Henry had his and Raihan's Pokémon keep Oranguru busy, allowing him to fix the fan. Calmed down, the Sage Pokémon thanked Henry and joined his team, where it was nicknamed Gunbain. Henry and Sonia entered the vault, where they found tapestries depicting two heroes involved in the Darkest Day instead of the singular hero portrayed on the statue in the Budew Drop Inn.

In [[PASS13]], after reuniting with the others, Henry traveled to [[Stow-on-Side]], where he fought [[Allister]] in a Gym battle. While he went up against Allister's Gigantamax {{p|Gengar}}, Henry heard the voice of his deceased father and swordsmith master, giving him the determination to win. Later, after arriving in [[Ballonlea]], Henry prepared to face [[Opal]], but wasn't allowed onto the field until he answered one of her quizzes. After giving an answer, Henry was forced to wait for his turn while Hop battled Opal first. In the meantime, Henry trained with Marvin's newly-evolved {{p|Drizzile|Namida-kun}} to devise a strategy against Opal's Gigantamax {{p|Alcremie}}. The training proved successful, allowing Henry to defeat Opal. Later, Casey was defeated by Opal and eliminated from the Gym Challenge. Henry promised to help keep the public informed of Casey's missing team members. They traveled to [[Route 9 Tunnel]], where people had reported seeing Pokémon Dynamaxing despite it not being a Power Spot. They found several Trainers attacking a wild {{p|Dracovish}}, but Marvin saved it by catching Dracovish and escaping with the others. Later, at [[Circhester]], the group encountered the Gym Leader [[Melony]], who requested that Henry repair an ice cane tool for her.

Henry nicknames his Pokémon by taking the name of the tool they wield and adding the suffix "-n" to the end of it.
