>>12648935The rivals haven't been confirmed. We have four people that start on the journey with us, but for all we know two of them drop off somewhere early on (kinda like May). Hell, one may not even battle, maybe they just give advice. The girl obviously requires at least one escort mission, maybe she gives up and goes home
like Bianca should have and he's really only referring to the rivals that appear at the end.
The theory I've heard a lot, and that makes a lot of sense, is that the leaker only had a demo copy, like what's used for trailers. Gogoat could only be ridden because in his version, that's all that was programmed. Maybe there's just two rivals because that's all he got to see. I wouldn't trust it 100%, but the majority is real. So as long as you look at what could be bad information, you get a pretty good idea of what to expect.
