Falkner

Quotes

 * "I'm Falkner, The Violet Pokémon Gym leader! People say you can clip flying-type Pokémon's wings with a jolt of electricity... I won't allow such insults to bird Pokémon!  I'll show you the real power of the magnificent bird Pokémon!"


 * "Darn! My dad's cherished bird Pokémon... All right.  Take this.  It's the official Pokémon League Zephyr Badge."

In the games
Falkner's title is "The Elegant Master of Flying Pokémon". He inherited the Violet Gym from his father, who is never seen but said to be travelling.

Falkner is seen as a cool and handsome Trainer, but it is said that his father is even more cool and more handsome. Falkner defends the Violet Gym using his father's cherished bird Pokémon, and strives to be the greatest bird master.

His gym is fairly simplistic, filled with bird cages.

In addition to the Zephyr Badge, Falkner awards TM31, Mud-Slap, to those Trainers that manage to defeat him.
