>>29628074Hmmm, weird idea for a rival then?
>They're actually notably older than you and HAD been the champion at one point>After being toppled though they went on a personal journey and decided to start over again around the time the player does>They're friendly enough to give you plenty of tips from their experience>They always try to involve themselves in the plot>But they ultimately learn it's time to step aside and let the next generation take over.>After accepting this, they are also proud to say that you are the one who will succeed them.>>29626691another random and really shitty idea:
>Pokemon game/region based on Disney>light-hearted as fucking hell>You know you're in for nothing serious when your rival is Alice and the 'evil team' is led by Heinz Doofenschmirtz (and your ally is a psyduck)
