Brassius

Brassius is a character appearing in Pokémon Scarlet and Pokémon Violet. He is the Gym Leader of Artazon Gym, specializing in types and is one of the eight Gym Leaders in which the player can fight in any order they choose.
==Appearance==
Brassius is a man with green hair resembling thorny vines and gray eyes with bags under them. He wears a red long-sleeved shirt with a yellow collar, black pants and green shoes. On his waist is a gray vine whip.
His Grass type preference is reflected in his thorny hair resembling spiny vines and his shirt having a thorny rose bud motif. His gray vine whip is often held like a portable garden hose, but likely has a dark thorny appearance to reflect his theme of "Every rose has its thorns" taken to the literal extreme.
==Personality==
Brassius is a stoic artist constantly looking for inspiration to reflect his love for conveying emotion. Though he appears extremely cold and scary, he tries to be kind and welcoming, but his scary appearance reflects his personal depression when he lost his way in life and was only able to find happiness again after Hassel showed him how to express himself with his art. He picked Sunflora as his model due to its perpetual grin no matter how upset its feeling. When it comes to meeting Trainers as a Gym Leader, he uses his depression as a vessel to energize his Pokémon battles and appear stronger as a Gym Leader, but he seems to care little about his role as a Gym Leader after having finally met a Trainer who can give him the inspiration he's been looking for. 
He can be sensitive about others not seeing art the way he does though, as he gets furious if the player misinterprets his sculpture or his reason for jumping off the windmill, but he forgives them quickly as following his master Hassel, he prefers to teach than let his emotions get the best of him.
Etymology
Brassius' name could come from "Brassica", a genus of plants in the cabbage and mustard family.

== Trivia ==
* Brassius' Sudowoodo having the Grass Tera Type referenced the common depictions of how trees are a type of plant, which grows on grass, as well as how in Gen 2, fans mistakenly though Sudowoodo as a Grass-Type when it was a Rock-type.
*Brassius creating artworks featuring Sunflora may act as a reference to Vincent Van Gogh's Seven Sunflowers.
