Well, I guess we are still neighbors, so… Nice to meet you! Let's be friends, OK? Huh? Hey, <player>… Don't you have any Pokémon? If you want, I can go catch you one.

:''"OK, so it's this one and that one that live on Route 103… Huh? Hey, <player>! Ohhh. So you finally got a Pokémon from my dad? Then how about a little battle? Since we're here and all! I'm going to teach you what being a [[Pokémon Trainer|Trainer's]] all about!"''
 
*Being defeated
:''"Huh. You're not too shabby, <player>."''
 
*After being defeated
:''"It was a good battle. Thanks! Here! Lemme heal up both our parties real quick. I think I know why my dad had his eye on you now. Look, you just got your Pokémon, right? And you already have that strong of a bond? I get the feeling that you could befriend any Pokémon, <player>. No doubt. Well, I've got some good data here, so I guess it's time I got back to the lab.

;Professor Birch's Lab
:''"Oh! <player>! Over here!"''
:''"Huh… So you got a [[Pokédex]], too, <player>. Well then here. Have some {{i|Poké Ball}}s on me. You can use them to catch wild Pokémon. If you catch a Pokémon in the wild and battle together with it for a while, it will grow stronger for you! Take that as a bit of advice from a more experienced Trainer like me! I'm going to get ready to head out from Littleroot soon myself. It's like…I don't know… It really gets you pumped up, right? We've both gotta give it our all out there, <player>!"''

;Route 101
:''"<player>! [[DexNav|This]] is from my dad. He said he forgot to give it to you before. The app I just added to your [[PokéNav Plus]] is called the DexNav. It can tell you lots about the Pokémon living in each area and that kind of stuff. It's a handy app to have if you're trying to catch lots of different Pokémon. Guess it's about time I use the DexNav to do a little more catching myself! I'm gonna head that way and see what I find. <player>, you should use those Poké Balls I gave you earlier to do a bit of catching, too!"''

Try getting closer, real nice and slow! <span style="color:#00aeef">Push lightly on the Circle Pad to sneak close to Pokémon hiding in the grass.</span> That's what it said in some book.

Oh, and you DO know about your DexNav's <span style="color:#00aeef">Detector Mode</span>, right? It'll react to any Pokémon in the area, so it's pretty handy to use! Hm? Whoa! Check {{p|Beautifly|'em}} out, <player>! It's like…I don't know… Seeing them like that makes me feel kinda…warm. You know? All right then! We're nearly there! Petalburg, here we come!

He says that a long, long time ago, nature used to be way more diverse and there were lots more kinds of Pokémon, too. My dad and I want to learn more about those Pokémon from the past, you know? That's why we do fieldwork. And this journey has really helped. I've met a lot of Pokémon on my way here and learned about them, too. Which reminds me! Come on! It's the first time we've met in ages, so let's have a battle! Show me what you and your team have accomplished on your journey, <player>!"''
 
*Being defeated

*After being defeated
:''"Sheesh, <player>, when did you go and train your Pokémon up that well? It's, like, I don't know… It's pretty surprising, OK! Both our teams look pretty wiped out after that, huh! Here, let me help them out."''
:''"And this is for you."''
:''"That's a [[Dowsing Machine]]. Use it to root around for items that aren't visible. If it senses something nearby, it'll react, see? Truth is, once I started using it, I got pretty hooked on it. It's addicting! But I recommend you give it a try. Careful though, you won't be able to sneak up on Pokémon while you wear it! I guess I'm off to get started surveying the next area then. I hope you meet a lot of Pokémon, too, <player>!"''
 
;Route 112

:''"And why don't you take [[HM04|this]]?"''
:''"I bet you can find all kinds of ways to use it in the mountains that lie ahead! Oh… But it won't work out here if you don't have a [[Badge]] from Lavaridge Gym. Bah!

;Route 113
:''"Phew… It took a long time to make it this far. Even I felt like I needed a little break. Looks like your team could use one, too, <player>. Lemme patch them up for you."''
:''"…There. That's them sorted. I'm on my way to meet this Professor Cozmo fellow, right? He's super famous for his research on [[Meteorite]]s. He even worked with my dad—I mean, with [[Professor Birch]]—on figuring out if Meteorites could have any effect on Pokémon. OK! Time to get moving again! I think Fallarbor's pretty close now.

*After saving Professor Cozmo
:''"Those crazy jerks… What do you think they wanted with the professor's Meteorite anyway? I've gotta say, they sure didn't look like the good guys…but… I guess we'd both better be careful from here on out. Not that I'm really worried about you, <player>. You and your team'd be fine for sure."''
:''"Thank you, Professor."''

Oh, well, you know… The last time I saw you, you were mixed up with those "Team Whatsit" people… So I just wondered if you'd gotten back on the road after that. It was, like, I don't know… I guess I was a bit…worried? What? You battled them AGAIN after that? And you even managed to beat them? You really are something else, <player>… You and your Pokémon.

:''"Keep those with you if you're planning on going into that desert near Route 111. There should be some Pokémon that only make their habitat in the desert, you know.

Guess that means…that you'll be headed to Petalburg City next, huh? To challenge your dad at his Gym? W-well, if you are… I just happened to be thinking of going to Petalburg myself, so… How about it? Wanna go back to Petalburg together?
::'''Yes:''' ''"Y-yeah? Then let's hit it!"''

And you can use it for [[Mega Evolution]]… So you'll just keep getting closer to your Pokémon and getting even stronger… All right, then. I guess I've just gotta help you test how strong you've become, huh? Show me in battle how much better you've gotten! Come on! A battle! I'm challenging you to a battle!"''
 
*Being defeated
:''"Sheesh, <player>… You've gotten pretty darn decent."''
 
*After being defeated

Look, I get that this is probably something way bigger than I've ever imagined. So, I won't bother with any questions now. I'm gonna find out what I should do to help, and then I'm going to do whatever I can. You'd better go do the same, <player>. I'll always be right there behind you.

You know, we set out from Littleroot at the same time, but… It seems like you're just dashing ahead by yourself and leaving me behind… I feel like we're not even on the same level anymore, you know? … It's kinda lonely thinking like that… Or it would be if I really thought that! But…well, you did do something pretty amazing. So take it easy for a while, OK, friend? Later!"''

*After having entered the Hall of Fame
:''"Welcome back, <player>. I just, uh, you know… We set out on this journey together, right? So maybe we should finish it together, too. D-don't go trying to read anything into it, though! Now, come on! We're going home! Back to Littleroot Town!"''
 
;Route 103 (post-game, after credits)
:''"Man, this is nostalgic. Back on Route 103, huh? Remember that pond over there? This is where we battled the first time, huh? Hey, <player>… Do me a favor? Come on! Let's battle one more time! I wanna know about what you saw on your journey, how you felt, and what you experienced out there. I want to know all about you and your Pokémon, <player>. But that's not all… I want you to know all about me and mine!"''
 
*After being defeated
:''"… Thanks, <player>! Just what I'd expect from a Champion! Getting to meet so many different people… And so many different Pokémon… It's like… I don't know… It's been really, really fun! Oh! <player>! Look there!"''

Everything happened so fast that I couldn't do a thing, but… Some [[Zinnia|strange woman]] came in my window, upstairs… And then she… She stole my [[Key Stone]]… I tried to fight her off with my team, but… She was unstoppable… I didn't stand a chance… I think I heard her muttering under her breath when she left, though… Something like "<span style="color:#00aeef">Petalburg's next</span>…" …You be careful, <player>."''
 
*At the end

:''"It's true what they say, though. Time really flies when you're having fun…"''

Brendan (Japanese: ユウキ Yūki) is the male choice for the player character in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald and their Generation VI remakes Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. He also serves as the rival in the same games if the player chooses to play as his female counterpart May.

In the core series

As the protagonist

If Brendan is selected as the player character, he starts his journey moving from his home in Johto to his new home in the town of Littleroot in Hoenn. After saving Professor Birch from a wild Pokémon, he is given one of the three starters of the Hoenn region. Brendan develops a close bond with May, and eventually Wally, who both act as his rivals. Brendan goes on to gather the eight Badges of Hoenn, stop the plans of Team AquaSEAS/Team MagmaREOR and conquer the Pokémon League all before going off to face the Battle FrontierE.

As a non-playable character

If Brendan is not selected as the player, he is helping his dad Birch finish the Hoenn Pokédex and becoming a Pokémon Professor. He is also the player's rival and friend. Along with May (when playing as Brendan), they are the only rivals unavailable for battle after defeating the Elite Four. Additionally, they both are the only ones to not evolve their starter Pokémon into its final form, except for in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, where their starters have been fully evolved by the battle that takes place after the credits.

Optional names

In the game, two of the optional names—one in Ruby and one in Sapphire—refer to "land" and "sea" respectively. In the English version, these are Landon and Sean; in the Japanese version, リクヤ Rikuya and カイト Kaito (陸 riku means land and 海 kai means sea). This is also the case in other languages. Additionally, in the English version, two of the shared names—Terry and Seth—seem to be influenced by the same theme.

In the TFG

There are three Trainer figures based on Brendan. They are versions of Brendan with the same design, but with different colors. In all figures, Brendan uses his sweater and backpack from Pokémon Emerald, and his pants and shoes from Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire.

  • Brendan (Japanese: ユウキ Yūki) from Next Quest, wearing clothes with blue in place of the red or orange colors from the other figures.
  • Landon (Japanese: リクヤ Rikuya) from Groundbreakers, wearing clothes with the color palette from Ruby and Sapphire.
  • Sean (Japanese: カイト Kaito), from the Unnamed Third Set, wearing clothes with the color palette from Emerald.

The Brendan figure is part of the single released set, Next Quest. The other two sets were not released, so the Landon and Sean figures were not released either.

Brendan in the anime

Brendan's only appearances in the main series are small cameos in the opening sequences of movies, specifically Jirachi: Wish Maker, Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea, and Giratina and the Sky Warrior. He is shown to spend time in Battle Towers. In all of his appearances, he has appeared with his Ruby and Sapphire outfit.

Unlike in the games, he has never interacted with May. It is unknown if he has ever met her, or even if his parents are the same as in the games, as neither Norman nor Professor Birch has mentioned him.

Brendan in the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Animated Trailer

Brendan appeared in the Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire Animated Trailer, where he was first seen sleeping in his house in Littleroot Town. A Treecko comes by and woke him up. He ran to May's house as the starter Pokémon were playing with one another. Brendan encountered a Youngster and battled his Zigzagoon with Treecko.

Later, sometime after his Treecko evolved all the way up into Sceptile, Brendan battled Steven and his Mega Metagross. Brendan then soared in the sky with his Mega Latios alongside May and her Mega Latias.
