==In the Anime==
 
[[File:JE093.jpg|thumb|left|Chuck in the Anime]]
 
   
  +
==Appearance==
Chuck made his debut in [[JE093: Machoke, Machoke Man!]]. He was first seen training with his [[Chuck's Machoke|Machoke]] first on Defense then on Offense.
 
  +
<section begin="Appearance"/>Chuck is a large, hefty, muscular man. He has fair skin, brown eyes, and short brown hair, along with a large, spiky moustache. Chuck is shirtless and doesn't wear any shoes, typically for a Fighting-type Gym Leader.<section end="Appearance"/>
   
  +
===Gold and Silver===
He was so teary eyed when he said he was proud of Machoke's power.
 
  +
<section begin="Appearance_GS"/>Chuck wears loose white pants and a maroon and white belt that hangs down in front of him.<section end="Appearance_GS"/>
   
  +
===Crystal===
He then noticed [[Ash]] and went drill sergeant forcing him, [[Misty]], [[Brock]] and [[Ash's Pikachu|Pikachu]] to march all the way to the [[Cianwood City Gym|gym]].
 
  +
Chuck's appearance remains the same as it is in ''Gold and Silver''.
   
  +
===HeartGold and SoulSilver===
When they arrived, Chuck was the last one to arrive because he was tired out. His students greeted him as the master and he revealed himself to be the Gym Leader. He says that eating is also part of training, but he can be sensitive about his weight when anyone, especially his [[Chuck's Wife|wife]], calls him "flabby".
 
  +
<section begin="Appearance_HGSS"/>Chuck wears jagged red pants with white colored ends, a black belt that hangs down, and gray bandages around his wrist.<section end="Appearance_HGSS"/>
  +
  +
==Personality==
  +
As his title (''His Roaring Fists Do the Talking'') suggests, Chuck is a very loud and cocky man. As a result of his grueling training, he is usually very sure of himself in battle, though he respects people who beat him. However, contrary to what his personality suggests, Chuck actually has a massive sweet tooth. After he finishes his daily training, he sneaks behind his wife's back to feast on sweets. Ironically, while Chuck thinks he hasn't put on too much pounds for it to be visible, his fat belly and his wife say otherwise. When the latter is talked to by the player character, she may talk about how her husband is getting chubby. He spends very little time with his wife which makes his wife upset. She always stands outside his gym, hoping he would come out.
  +
  +
==Etymology==
  +
<section begin="Etymology"/>The name Chuck comes from "chuck" (throw). It may also be a reference to the famous martial artist Chuck Norris, or from nunchucks or nunchaku, a traditional Japanese melee weapon.
  +
  +
His Japanese name, Shijima, originates from しばく (shibaku, to strike) or 黙 (shijima, silence). Following the plant-based naming of most Gym Leaders, it may also come from Haoruchia-Shijima, the Japanese name for the Haworthia genus of plants.<section end="Etymology"/>

  +
==Biography==
  +
===Games===
  +
====Gold, Silver and Crystal====
  +
[[Cianwood City Gym|Chuck's gym]] design in [[Generation II]] games is quite simple. The player has to face three trainers and then solve a boulder puzzle which requires the [[HMs|HM]] move, [[Strength]]. When the player character reaches Chuck, he tries to frighten the player character by showing his powers saying how his Pokémon "''Crush Boulders and Bones"''. He then throws a Boulder beside him showing his strength and accepts the player character's challenge.
  +
  +
====HeartGold and SoulSilver====
  +
Chuck's gym design in [[Generation IV]] games is quite different from Generation II games. Chuck stays unaware of the player character's arrival in the gym as he is busy meditating under an artificial waterfall. The player character's goal is to stop the flow of water by manipulating the valves in the gym. Once the flow of water stops, the player character can battle Chuck.
  +
  +
Chuck remains in his gym every day except Sundays. On Sundays, the player character can find Chuck in the north-west of [[Route 47]]. The player character can take a picture with him this time.
  +
  +
Because of him being busy in training, his number cannot be obtained by him but his wife.
  +
  +
====Stadium 2====
  +
Chuck can be found in Johto Gym Leader Castle in [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]. He has very few {{Type|Fighting}}-type Pokémon in his team. Though, all of his Pokémon know his signature move [[Dynamic Punch]].

Latest revision as of 21:19, 5 January 2024

"Wahahah! So you've come this far! Let me tell you, I'm tough! My Pokémon will crush stones and shatter bones! Watch this! Urggh! Oooarrgh! There! Scared now, are you? What? It has nothing to do with Pokémon? That's true! Come on. We shall do battle!"
— Chuck, Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal.

Chuck is the Cianwood City Gym Leader. He specializes in using Fighting-type Pokémon.

Appearance

Chuck is a large, hefty, muscular man. He has fair skin, brown eyes, and short brown hair, along with a large, spiky moustache. Chuck is shirtless and doesn't wear any shoes, typically for a Fighting-type Gym Leader.

Gold and Silver

Chuck wears loose white pants and a maroon and white belt that hangs down in front of him.

Crystal

Chuck's appearance remains the same as it is in Gold and Silver.

HeartGold and SoulSilver

Chuck wears jagged red pants with white colored ends, a black belt that hangs down, and gray bandages around his wrist.

Personality

As his title (His Roaring Fists Do the Talking) suggests, Chuck is a very loud and cocky man. As a result of his grueling training, he is usually very sure of himself in battle, though he respects people who beat him. However, contrary to what his personality suggests, Chuck actually has a massive sweet tooth. After he finishes his daily training, he sneaks behind his wife's back to feast on sweets. Ironically, while Chuck thinks he hasn't put on too much pounds for it to be visible, his fat belly and his wife say otherwise. When the latter is talked to by the player character, she may talk about how her husband is getting chubby. He spends very little time with his wife which makes his wife upset. She always stands outside his gym, hoping he would come out.

Etymology

The name Chuck comes from "chuck" (throw). It may also be a reference to the famous martial artist Chuck Norris, or from nunchucks or nunchaku, a traditional Japanese melee weapon.

His Japanese name, Shijima, originates from しばく (shibaku, to strike) or 黙 (shijima, silence). Following the plant-based naming of most Gym Leaders, it may also come from Haoruchia-Shijima, the Japanese name for the Haworthia genus of plants.

Biography

Games

Gold, Silver and Crystal

Chuck's gym design in Generation II games is quite simple. The player has to face three trainers and then solve a boulder puzzle which requires the HM move, Strength. When the player character reaches Chuck, he tries to frighten the player character by showing his powers saying how his Pokémon "Crush Boulders and Bones". He then throws a Boulder beside him showing his strength and accepts the player character's challenge.

HeartGold and SoulSilver

Chuck's gym design in Generation IV games is quite different from Generation II games. Chuck stays unaware of the player character's arrival in the gym as he is busy meditating under an artificial waterfall. The player character's goal is to stop the flow of water by manipulating the valves in the gym. Once the flow of water stops, the player character can battle Chuck.

Chuck remains in his gym every day except Sundays. On Sundays, the player character can find Chuck in the north-west of Route 47. The player character can take a picture with him this time.

Because of him being busy in training, his number cannot be obtained by him but his wife.

Stadium 2

Chuck can be found in Johto Gym Leader Castle in Pokémon Stadium 2. He has very few Fighting-type Pokémon in his team. Though, all of his Pokémon know his signature move Dynamic Punch.
