>>54698161>They are more forgettable than May/BrendanIt's kinda cheating to compare them to rivals that are the opposite gender of the male character, since that's already Serena in XY.
They're side rivals to begin with, so their bracket is Wally, Bianca, Hau, Marnie, Bede, and whatever's happening in gen 9.
And I'd say they only end up more forgettable than these on account of how annoying or outnumbered the other side rivals are.
But I can always remember Shauna and Tierno's names, and I always need to google Hugh, Barry, and despite the hundreds of hours spent on RSE and ORAS, Wally's (mostly to not mix him up with Barry) to remember them.
So it's not exactly a landslide defeat.
