Brendan Richards

A Pokemon trainer in the Hoenn region, Brendan Richards is one of the main characters of Pokemon-X. He originally lived in the Johto region until he and his promiscuous mother Joyce moved to the Hoenn region to live closer to Brendan's "father" Norman. Brendan is new to the island of Hoenn and has been persuaded to become a Pokemon trainer so he can become rich and famous. Even though his intentions are selfish, he still has a good heart and tends to do the right thing, most of the time...

Background History
Brendan Richards was born in Ecruteak City to his mother Joyce and Joe, the mailman, though his father Norman has no idea and thinks Brendan is his son. Joyce even says he looks just like his father, which is true in the fact that Joe has white hair as well.

As a child, Brendan has at one point been to Fuschia City's Safari Zone, as mentioned by his mother. While there, he got a souviner blue plastic moulded Tauros from one of the souviner machines, which he named "Beefy". The plastic souviner has had such an imprint on Brendan that he has dreams about the blue Tauros.

Brendan appearantly had an incident with a Pikachu, though the full event has not been told in the comic yet.
