Brock Harrison

**Brock Harrison** (ブロック・ハリスン, *Burokku Harisun*), known as **Takeshi** (タケシ, *Takeshi*) in Japan, is both a fictional character and tritagonist from the *Pokémon* series created by Satoshi Tajiri. He is the Gym Leader of Pewter City's Gym in the Kanto region.

As the Gym Leader, Brock holds the Boulder Badge for the trainers that defeat him, and mainly uses Rock-type Pokémon. Ash later meets a man in Viridian Forest that is soon later revealed to be Brock's father.

He explains that Brock wanted to become a Pokémon Master but due to his father leaving, Brock had to take care of his many, many siblings and could not leave. This is why he became a gym leader, to stay close to his family. His father comes back and states he will take care of the family.

Brock left his position as a Gym Leader to travel alongside Ash Ketchum and became a revered Pokémon Breeder. He later cultivates his skills in medicine. Brock is currently at Pewter City to train to be a Pokémon Doctor.

"*In this big world of ours, there must be many tough Trainers. Let's both keep training and making ourselves stronger!*"

—Brock Harrison.
