Brock: Great character? or Greatest?

um, no. I think Brock is mostly that story explanation guy (who occasionally gets things wrong) and serves no real purpose to the team other than cooking, falling for a girl, and making some background conversation. Oh and refereeing a pokemon match.
 
Brock has a nice appeal. I think they've neglected his character too much and along with the voice difference and the new outfit, he's not as lovable as he used to be. The writers need to give him more airtime. It's no way to treat an old favorite!
 
Brock is the coolest anything ever. He's got style.
 
Brock Sampson? Yes.

Oh, you mean Brock from Pokémon...

I'd like to imagine that Brock thinks he's the coolest, but he's not. He's very knowledgeable when it comes to explaining battle stradgeies and the well-being of a Pokémon outside battle.
 
I liked Brock better in the early seasons. He wasn't as shoved into the background as he is now.
 
I prefer the term Greaterestestest character. It just describes how much epic win he is, what with all the sittin' there and doin'... uh... breeder things. Yeah, we'll stick with that.
 
He's a great character but not the greatest. Dawn's the greatest *shot*

this for agreement
 
I think Brock is a very awesome character, and should have more of a role in the anime. Like above posters said, he just has a very simple role. Without him, Ash would be nowhere, but everyone overlooks him.
 
Brock needs to be replaced, since he's become an array of tired gimmicks and overdone explanations.

However, back in the original series and early Hoenn, he was awesome. His constant flirting with girls, fun personality, and generally badass array of Pokemon made him memorable and likable. Once Hoenn came around, though, he sort of fell to the wayside due to May's contests and he has had less screentime. He did teach Ash a lot, though, and deserves the credit. By now, though, the flirting with girls and overexplanations have become overdone...

It's mostly because he, like Ash, is getting quite stale. We've seen him in like 600 episodes. Isn't that enough?

He needn't be stale if the writers gave him as much personality as they used too then i for one would still love Brock as much as ever!
 
I think Brock is the greatest :D,
because thanks to him and team rocket, there is humor in Pokemon xD
 
Takeshi was great before mid Hoenn. He's still there, but not much to accomodate any more memorable scenes after his contest battle VS Haruka and what Shinou has given us so far.
 
:lol:... riiight.

no.

he's not.

i think he was awesome, back in kanto. and johto. and hoenn, i guess? but yeah, he's completely lost his sexiness ever since sinnoh.

i really liked him back when they returned to kanto, when he had bonsly and stuff. but yeah, brock in sinnoh is garbage. :thumbd:
 
Brock is awesome. He's always been one of my favorite characters, and always will be.

Naturally, his character was at its best during the Kanto days, and of course he's gotten stale over the years. Nonetheless I'd be sad if they removed him from the show.
 
I like Brock. I wish they would give him more to do, that's all.
And I still find his flirting funny.
 
I think Brock was a rather okay character, IMO. He knows what to do if the group is stuck in a tight spot (most of the time).
 
Brock is kept around because they don't want to have to flush out a new character. And they need 3 traveling together, otherwise it'll get awkward on a romantic level, like when Ash and Misty started going around the Orange Island.

Brock's cliches are getting tiresome, and that's why they tried to change him up a little by making his hair and eyes go awesome when he flirts now. But that's the freshest he's going to get for a long while unfortunately.
