Gordie (Japanese: マクワ Makuwa) is one of Gym Leaders of Circhester's Gym, known officially as Circhester Stadium. He specializes in Rock-type Pokémon. He gives the Rock Badge to Trainers who defeat him.

Gordie is a tall and stocky young man with fair skin, beige hair with yellow highlights, and blue eyes. He wears a stylish outfit that consists of blue and black sunglasses, a brown and black jacket, and a white colored blazer with the Rock-type symbol on it. He also wears gray and white shorts with a multitude of symbols and his Gym number on them, along with a contraption with which he carries his Poké Balls. Finally, he wears gray and blue shoes and has a gold necklace with a blue gemstone inset around his neck.

Gordie is the sixth Gym Leader Galar Trainers face in their Gym Challenge in Pokémon Sword. He is believed to have received his education from his mother, Melony, who is an another Gym Leader of Circhester. However, instead of becoming an Ice-type user like Melony did, he chose to use the Rock type due to him admiring that type more and wanting to find his own path to greatness. This resulted in the two falling out after a heated battle, which led to them almost never seeing each other since. (However, Melony is one of the first members of Gordie's fan club) There are few Gym Trainers in his Gym due to his strict training style.

As a rising star, many believed he has the potential of becoming the Galar League Champion. Gordie uses Rock-type Pokémon to achieve victory through a refined and graceful battle style, despite the type's rough and unrelenting reputation. He is considered one of the strongest Galar Trainers in terms of popularity and skills. He has a tendency to shut himself away in a locker room when he loses, making it hard to get an interview from him. Most of his fans find this trait to be endearing regardless. He has quite a large fanbase, and he tries his best to make his fans happy by either giving out autographs or hosting events. Currently, there are three photo albums on Gordie that were created by his fanbase.

Gordoe is a little bit boastful about his skills and rock Pokemon, but he always does his best to entertain his fans and give them good fanservice.

Despite his chubby figure, Gordie is very althetic as he is shown doing backflips when he throws a Pokeball. He is also known as a rock climbing althele in Galar as well.

Both Gordie and Melony are gym leaders of Circhester Gym and they alternate who acts as its Gym Leader each day.

Gordie has four younger siblings: a younger sister and a set of triplet siblings. (Gordie's siblings are shown in his concept art.)

Gordie specializes in rock-types. His team is Coalossal, Stonjourner, Shuckle, Tyranitar, Barbaracle and Lycanroc. He often Gigantamaxes his Coalossal.
