>blueIs just kinda cocky, like
>>26527922 said, he was still a friend and cared about you kinda. Aware of his limitations, keeps pushing till the end, cares about his pokemon, you can watch as he becomes more knowledgeable. I'd say he's the definition of "rival" 8/10
>silverObnoxious, delusional, "ugh you're so weak with your weak pokemon and your weak team and your weakness I hate weak pokemon" *gets his shit wrecked*, drama queen with daddy issues, never changes, 2/10 shit rival, he's just as asshole
>may brendanI wouldn't call them a "rival". They're focused on the pokedex, not so much beating gyms, though they do battle some of them. They're more just your
girlfriend/boyfriend who care about you and want to help you out. There's no real "competition" I feel. They're better in oras than rse
cute/10
>wallyGood. You also see him grow and become stronger. Really good ending team imo and strong enough to do mega evolution. Again, better and more involved with oras. 7/10
>BarryA+, perfect definition of rival. Has the goal of actually becoming strong and beating you (does he ever mention the league?) Helps you out with galactic, continues to improve post game, MAJOR character development, he realizes his flaws and works on them and changes drastically from beginning to end. He was at one point the strongest rival canonically. Dunno if he still is. 10/10 would rival again
>bianca/cherenThey tried to put personality into them but it kinda backfired. They weren't very good but their character improved in bw2 5/10
>NI thought he was a great rival, not necessarily like blue but very opposing to you and pushed you a lot. wasn't the best fighter but in terms of character I'd say he was really great and it was cool to see him change as well 8/10
>tierno/TrevorShit/10
