Brock

Brock appears in the Kanto-based games as the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym, which is the first Gym that the player challenges on their journey. He is one of the few truly serious professional Pokémon Trainers in the Pewter City area, and many people respect and admire him. He is quite proud of his rock-hard willpower, and uses Rock-type Pokémon to complement this. He rarely laughs or drops his serious demeanor, but when he does, he finds it hard to stop. In his free time, he likes to dig for Fossils in Mt. Moon. In addition to the Boulder Badge, Brock gives out TM34 (Bide) in Pokémon Red, Blue, and Yellow, TM39 (Rock Tomb) in Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen, and TM01 (Headbutt) in Pokémon: Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!.

In Pokémon Yellow, Let's Go, Pikachu!, and Let's Go, Eevee!, Brock mentions that he is training to become a Pokémon Breeder, a Trainer class that does not exist in these games. This is a reference to the goal of his animated series counterpart. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, Brock decides to postpone this goal to have daily rematches with the player after they have become Champion. In Let's Go, Pikachu! and Let's Go, Eevee!, the player also meets Brock in Celadon City, where he gives the player the Tea required to enter Saffron City. During this encounter, it is revealed that he is obsessed with pretty girls, just like his animated series counterpart.

Three years later, in the Johto-based games, Brock remains the Gym Leader of the Pewter Gym, which can be challenged before or after any other Gym (except the Viridian Gym) during the player's travels through Kanto. He is surprised to hear that the player is from the Johto region, and happily accepts their challenge. While he does not give out a TM in Pokémon Gold, Silver, and Crystal, he gives out TM80 (Rock Slide) in Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver.

In Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver, after all 16 Badges have been obtained, Brock can be found in Diglett's Cave near Pewter City on any day between noon and 3 PM, and will offer his Pokégear number if spoken to. If he is called on Saturday nights, he will be up for a rematch at the Fighting Dojo in Saffron City. After his Pokégear number has been obtained, he will reappear in Diglett's Cave every day between 5 PM and 8 PM, and the player can have a photograph taken with him there. If he is spoken to in Diglett's Cave on a Saturday, he will offer to trade a Rhyhorn that knows Thunder Fang for a Bonsly.

In Pokémon Black 2 and White 2, Brock appears alongside the other Gym Leaders of Kanto as an opponent in the Kanto Leaders Tournament at the Pokémon World Tournament. He also participates alongside the other Gym Leaders of Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, Sinnoh, and Unova in the World Leaders Tournament, and other Rock-type experts in the Rock Type Expert Tournament.
