Bruno Follows You?!
 
I noticed something when I fought Bruno in the Elite Four. He talks about his muscles and then says your name. How does he know your name??? As far as you know, Bruno is never on screen except for now. How would he know our name? He didn't even ask for it! Please discuss.

You're only surprised because you've never seen the official Nintendo art of Bruno before.

hah, i see wat u did thar.
That could explain the stalking though...

NickofTime May 1st, 2010 10:51 AM

I swear to god that made me laugh for like 30 mins... does that mean im immature?

560cool. May 1st, 2010 11:05 AM

Yeah ... o_O
But in FRLG, ALL THE ELITE calls your name. Or so I remember ... >_< They're the best after all, spying is quite easy when you have an FBI Team keen eyes. Plus, you're a real "hotshot trainer" to make it to the league. They must've heard about you from the gatekeeper ... ;)

Well, you know, the E4 is actually evil so they keep tabs on all of the good trainers to make sure they don't pose a threat.

ggctuk May 1st, 2010 11:37 AM

Well, Ethan/Lyra saw off Team Rocket in both Goldenrod and Mahogany Town. Lance would have probably told the Elite Four about that too.

Flare Riqueza May 1st, 2010 12:00 PM

Yeah, and, also, they need to keep tabs on you as you control a legendary.

I mean, it's not like everybody's going around catching Lugia and Ho-oh, is it? Well, actually it is, but not in your individual game

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ May 1st, 2010 12:25 PM

Karen also knows your name. "You're <name>? How amusing."

But yeah, your feats in booting out Team Rocket, capturing Lugia/Ho-oh, and conquering the eight gyms probably brought some notoriety. But that's what pwning the NPC trainers and the Elite Four's easy access to a ninja private investigator (or maybe just Koga) can get you.

~GodricGryffindor9~ May 1st, 2010 12:40 PM

Seriously! You just beat all 8 gym leaders in johto, you are gonna be well know!

So the elite four is going to know who you are after you become ( For lack of better words ) famous enough.

ichuesther May 1st, 2010 1:42 PM

I swear, Pokemon is full of pedos.

haha manga reference. I never noticed that they know your name ahead of time. Stalkers....

ANARCHit3cht May 1st, 2010 3:07 PM

Well.. according to the manga and anime and whatnot.. you need a trainer license. Which.. I bet somewhere in the line comes across the E4.

Ninja Caterpie May 1st, 2010 3:33 PM

You know who the leader of the Elite Four is? Lance.

You know who helped you beat Team Rocket in Mahogany? Lance.

I dunno...Could Lance have said anything?

Emilio~ May 1st, 2010 3:53 PM

I think thats a question of reputation. ^^ You've just defeated 8 gyms, and you defeated Team Rocket and have met Lance... I guess you get pretty famous for these kind of things. =P

Air Pichu May 1st, 2010 3:58 PM

Maybe he called the other E4 members and the E4 members said they were destroyed by *insert name here*

Jweeson May 1st, 2010 5:07 PM

You could have to "register" in with someone before you can challenge them. (obviously not in the game, but maybe if in reality they would know because the challenger would have been previously registered?)

Skystrike May 1st, 2010 9:15 PM

clues point to lance....
he knows you, you helped him....and hes the champion

chaos11011 May 2nd, 2010 3:35 AM

Well when you fight an NPC it says there name during battle despite the fact of them not saying it (Hiker Nob) That's Pokemon Logic for you.Plus you've beaten 8 gyms,fought Ho-oh/Lugia,tooken down the Rockets,and fought along side Lance.Of course you would be known (Lance could have also told the E4 about you)

Esper-chan May 2nd, 2010 3:54 AM

I'm sure it's because the player has a reputation after the events of the storyline and/or because lance is the champion.

But i'm gonna be a baka and say;
Maybe Will used telepathy to find out your name and tell the others about it! *shot* XD

Franzo May 2nd, 2010 3:56 AM

Actually Bruno is actually Brock in a very clever disguise
he is ashamed of losing so he changes his team and tries to kick your butt again...

Elm has contact with them and let them know of your arrival.

Elm, Mr. Pokemon, and the Kimono Girls are in cahoots.

Oak has contact with the Elite Four according to FrLg. Everyone is in contact with each other, so word is bound to get around about your pokemon character.

Or Elm and Mr. Pokemon ARE the Kimono Girls o_0

Who told you the truth? :p

Manga May 2nd, 2010 12:57 PM

Spoiler:
He's my personal Stalker




Naw.
Bruno would know who challenges him.
Lance probably warned the Elite Four about [Player]'s Arrival.

THEY SAW YOUR TRAINER CARD ON MONSTER.COM

There, I said it.
