Bruno

A member of the Elite Four who believes that people and Pokémon can become stronger through rigorous—even extreme—training, he shouts "Hoo hah!" to get fired up.

Appearance: Bruno is tall and muscular man. He has long black hair, tied in a thick ponytail, which dangles down his back to his shoulder blades and longish thick sideburns. He has small dark eyes with prominent eyebrows, a small nose and a square jaw. He wears black trousers with a tattered waist and ankles that are held up by a green belt, shirtless and brown wristbands on his wrists.

Personality: Stolid yet intimidating, Bruno is a character who represents his preferred type very accurately indeed. With great belief in his training, his impressive physique no doubt came from many years of training.

Partner Pokémon: Machamp.

Machamp appearance: Machamp is a large, four-armed humanoid Pokémon. Machamp's physical appearance is similar to Machoke's, except without the snout, red lines on its arms, and the belt. It is bluish-gray in color unlike its pre-evolution, Machoke, which is purple in color. Bruno's Machamp is male.

It grasps its opponents with its four arms and twists them up in an intricate hold. People call it "the Machamp special."

Machamp knows Karate Chop, Cross Chop, and Dynamic Punch.

Karate Chop: Machamp repeatedly chops the opponent with its hands, or one of Machamp's hands glow white and it chops the opponent with the side of its open hand.

Cross Chop: Machamp crosses its top two arms to form an "X" and its arms start to glow. It then strikes the opponent with the crossed arms.

Dynamic Punch: All four of Machamp's fists become surrounded by a bluish-white aura and it punches the opponent with one of them.

Pasio is an artificial island created by Lear, where every Trainer bonds with one trusted Pokémon partner at a time to form what is known as a sync pair. These sync pairs fight together in Pasio’s signature 3-on-3 team battles.

At the heart of the island is the Pokémon Masters League (PML), a grand tournament featuring Gym Leaders, Elite Four members, Champions, and other notable Trainers from every region. To qualify, participants must defeat PML Leaders across Pasio and earn five badges while adventuring with their partnered Pokémon.

Centra City is the island’s largest hub, hosting a Pokémon Center complete with a shop and café. Other major locations include the Battle Villa, a multi-floor challenge facility for endurance-based combat, and several specialized arenas scattered across the island.

The most prestigious battleground is the Champion Stadium, where the final rounds of the PML are fought. Meanwhile, the Trainer Lodge serves as a social space where Trainers gather, interact, and strengthen their partnerships.
