After this incident, Brock returned to Kanto where he was found by Delia Ketchum, who helped him to regain his strength. In the English dub of Destiny Deoxys, he mentioned his work for her. While there, something happened that will probably remain secret as Brock will only huddle and say "that name" whenever he is asked about it. However, he became more open and passionate towards almost all single young women as time progressed.īrock leaving the group to stay with Professor Ivyīrock took care of a Vulpix that belonged to a Breeder named Suzie.īrock briefly left the show during the Orange Islands saga to work for Professor Ivy on Valencia Island and so is only seen in a couple of cameos in the second movie.

In Showdown in Pewter City, after Brock awarded Ash the Boulder Badge, Flint came forward and confessed who he was. As a result, Brock assumed the responsibility of running the Pewter Gym while also taking care of his nine younger siblings on his own. Prior to joining Ash at the end of Showdown in Pewter City, Flint left the family home to pursue his own ventures. When he was younger, he participated in Little League Baseball, as mentioned in The Little Big Horn. In Having a Wailord of a Time, he revealed that his first Pokémon was an Onix he received as a tenth-birthday gift from his father Flint. Not much is known about Brock's early childhood.
