Blaine

Blaine (ブレイン, Burein), is both a fictional character and tritagonist from the Super Kingdom Bros.'s Sonic Pokémon series created by Yuji Naka and Satoshi Tajiri. He is the Gym Leader of Cinnabar Island's Gym in the Kanto region, and currently a member of the Resistance.

As the Gym Leader, Blaine holds the Volcano Badge for the trainers that defeat him, and mainly uses Fire-type Pokémon. Blaine was also previously a member of Team Rocket, alongside the other 3 Kanto Gym Leaders: Koga, Lt. Surge and Sabrina.

However, he saw the error of his ways when he heard of Ash's exploits against Team Rocket. Before he deserted the criminal organization, Blaine experimented on many Pokémon under Giovanni's orders, namely Eevee, Gyarados and Mewtwo.

He is a highly intelligent man who enjoys testing his potential challengers with quizzes on their knowledge of Pokémon and appears to be an old friend of Mr. Fuji. Ever since joining the Resistance, He has also been participating in a war against Dr. Eggman.

"Heh! I'm Blaine, the leader of Cinnabar Gym! People know me as the hotheaded quiz master!"

He explained to the Team Rocket commander they were generating Mewtwo from the Mew cell that was brought to them, but that cell was not enough to complete Mewtwo's form. The commander claimed they had to catch Mew, but Blaine wondered if that was even possible to do. Later, Blaine watched as the commander became furious, as his men gave a fake disk about Mew. Eventually, Blaine betrayed and left Team Rocket, being inspired by Ash's actions.
