Dewford Gym Leader · Dewford Town

Brawly is a Fighting specialist associated with surfing and physical training. His darkened Dewford Gym becomes easier to navigate as its trainers are defeated.

  • Story: He awards the Knuckle Badge and TM08 Bulk Up. Dewford’s Gym and Granite Cave make the island more than a short ferry stop.
  • In the game: His Ruby and Sapphire team has Machop at level 17 and Makuhita at level 18. Flying or Psychic coverage is useful, while Bulk Up can make prolonged physical exchanges harder.
