Description: Blaine is the seventh Gym leader in the Kanto region, who is an expert on Fire-type Pokémon. Blaine resides in Cinnabar Island, and in the anime and the GSC games has his gym inside a volcano. His name could be a take off the word "blaze". One of Blaine's unique traits, at least in the video games and anime, is his affection for riddles. This, combined with his training of Fire Pokémon, has earned him the nickname "The Hotheaded Quiz Master". Due to this fact, his name may also be a reference to the character "Blaine the Mono" in Stephen King's "Dark Tower" series, who also has an affection for riddles.
