Birch was first seen in a flashback of {{jo|Harrison}} in ''[[EP272|Johto Photo Finish]]''. His first actual appearance was in ''[[AG001|Get The Show On The Road]]'' when he gave {{an|May}} her {{TP|May|Torchic}}. He later appeared in [[Dewford Town]] in both ''[[AG027|A Three Team Scheme!]]'' and ''[[AG028|Seeing is Believing!]]''. Birch also appeared in ''[[AG071|A Six Pack Attack]]'', when he was meeting {{an|Professor Oak}}. Later, Birch was seen in ''[[AG095|The Evolutionary War!]]'' at a vacation on [[A-B-C Islands]]. Over there, he, Ash and {{ashfr}} cleared the mystery of the {{p|Clamperl}} [[evolution]]. Birch's most recent appearance was a short cameo in ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]''. It is unlikely that he will appear again since the main characters have left the Hoenn region.

His preferred mode of transport is a SUV that he drives recklessly. Due to the relationship between characters in the games, it is widely speculated that Birch is the father of [[Brendan (game)#anime|Brendan's anime counterpart]]. This character has made three short cameo appearances in the anime and has the [[starter Pokémon]] whose type weakens {{OP|May|Blaziken}}.
