Template:Main Game CharacterBrendan is the male protagonist in the games Ruby and Sapphire, Emerald, Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire.

Appearance

Brendan is a slightly tall for his age, thin boy with black (or very dark brown) hair which is covered by a white beanie and pale skin. His eyes are brown in R/S/E and pale blue in OR/AS.

Ruby and Sapphire

In the Generation III games, he wears a black headband with a red Poké Ball pattern. He sports a long-sleeved red and black sweater and black shorts over baggy black trousers with yellow cuffs at the bottom. His sneakers are also red and black, matching his outfit. Around his neck he sports a gold band with a round white circle in the center, and on his hands he wears yellow and blue fingerless gloves.

Emerald

In Emerald, his clothes have some green patches. He now wears a black and orange collared short sleeved shirt with a green backpack, orange fingerless gloves with black and green wristbands, a green headband, dark gray slim-fit long pants underneath with black and gray shorts, orange and green slip on running shoes with black soles and white stripes.

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire

His appearance changes slightly in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire, but has a somewhat similar colour scheme to R/S. The style of his beanie is slightly different than it looked in the previous games, and he has grown his sideburns out, making them more prominent. He wears a skin-tight red and black t-shirt (with an odd zipper on the collar) and black and dark grey slim fit knee length shorts. He wears a green backpack and white and green slip on sneakers. He has a Mega Bracelet on his left wrist. He now wears a black headband with a thin scarlet semi-circle.

Personality

As a rival, Brendan is a kind-hearted, friendly, and humble person. He is kind and respectful to the player, despite the fact that he is a rival. He is a good trainer to his Pokémon.

Trivia

  • In the demo of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire and in screenshots of Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire in the guidebook, they refer to Brendan as "Orlando."
  • Brendan along with May are first playable protagonists to be related to a gym leader or a Pokémon professor.
    • They also are the only ones that have both a Mother and a Father in the games.
  • One of Pokémon Trainer's alternate costumes in Super Smash Bros. Brawl is based on the same color as Brendan's attire from Emerald. Pikachu also wears Brendan's headband from the same game.
    • In the Gen III games,Brendan and his counterpart May were the only rivals whose final evolved starter pokemon was never shown
  • In Ruby, one of the names that can be chosen for him is "Landon", which possibly is a reference to the land (Landon). This in turn seems to be a reference to Groudon.
    • This corresponds with in Sapphire, one of the names that can be chosen for him is "Sean", which is possibly a reference to the ocean (Sean). This in turn seems to a reference to Kyogre.
  • Brendan is the only returning protagonist whose remake design was not inspired by their original appearance. Instead, Brendan's design in Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire draws influence from his appearance in Emerald.
