If Brendan is not selected as the player, he is helping his father 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 entering the [[Hall of Fame]]. Additionally, they both are the only ones to not [[evolution|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]].
