Biography tab • • 》 Brian grew up in Littleroot Town in Hoenn. When his parents were younger, his mother, Allison, was a Coordinator, and his father, Adam, challenged the Hoenn League, though he didn't win. Thus, Brian has a bit of both worlds, as his parents taught him what they knew of both battling and contests. His father was also aspiring to become a great Breeder, and Brian grew up learning to be a Breeder from his father. Allison also took up the title of Breeder after she married Adam, and his parents have become well-known for breeding all kinds of Pokemon.
When his parents had to leave the house for longer than an hour or two, they would leave him in the care of his mother's Gardevoir, Abby. Thus, he formed a bond with the Psychic/Fairy-type as a sort of second mother. His grandfather on his mother's side would also visit quite often, and the man was well-known among family and friends for his strong bond with his Pokemon. The man would spend most of his visits teaching Brian how to work as a team with his Pokemon, though Brian was still too young to have any Pokemon of his own at the time.
When Brian was around five, his parents noticed that the Pokemon he was interacting with seemed completely unafraid of the boy, and they wondered why. They were surprised when a timid young Poochyena they'd been raising warmed up to the boy right from the start. The Dark-type wouldn't come anywhere near the two of them, yet Brian had no trouble gaining the Poochyena's friendship. His parents realized that Brian might do well as a Breeder, and when he was a few months shy of turning ten, they started teaching him how to properly care for Pokemon, both hatched and eggs.
When Brian was ten, he was exploring the forests surrounding his parents' house and stumbled across an injured Gardevoir. This, in itself, was surprising, as Brian knew the Ralts line was normally incredibly shy and distrusting of humans. Perhaps it was the connection he had with his mother's Gardevoir that allowed him to get close enough, though he wasn't entirely sure. He wondered what had happened as he looked over the Psychic/Fairy-type's injuries, and he knew the Gardevoir needed help. So he ran to get his parents, who followed him to where he'd left the Gardevoir. The Psychic/Fairy-type allowed his parents to treat her injuries, then vanished into the forest.
A few months later, Brian was helping his parents tend to a sick Zigzagoon when he heard something approaching, and he turned from what he was doing to see the Poochyena he'd befriended, who was now a Mightyena, running toward them, barking. Wondering what was wrong, he followed the Dark-type a short distance away, to a shallow hole in the base of a tree. Kneeling down and peering into the hole, Brian was surprised to see a Pokemon egg. He wondered what it was doing there, and decided not to touch it just yet. From the way the Mightyena was acting, the egg had been there for a while, but Brian wasn't taking any chances, wanting to see if the mother Pokemon would return for it.
Over the course of the next several days, Brian kept an eye out to see if any Pokemon would come to claim the egg, but none did. Finally, after nearly a week, he realized the egg had likely been abandoned, and decided to raise the egg on his own. His parents were surprised when he showed it to them, but agreed to let him raise it, provided he let them give the Pokemon inside a check-up when it hatched. Brian agreed, and only a few weeks later, the egg hatched into a Ralts. While he'd been raising the egg, Brian had heard of Ordell Academy, and wondered what it would be like to live with other kids and learn more about Pokemon. He asked his parents if he could enroll, to which they both said yes, knowing that it would be a valuable learning experience for him and the Ralts he'd chosen as his first Pokemon.
