I'm gonna go with the rival from second generation. He's simply a more developed character. The rest of your rivals are all either purely douches or purely goody-two-shoes. The rival from second gen actually had some depth to him. He starts out pure evil, and as he continues to lose to you, he learns what he's lacking. In short, he's the only rival with any substance. You hate him at first, then you start to see him change, then at then end you sympathize with him, even start to respect him. He gets my vote.

This one is really easy.

Blue from the first generation.

The only one who is close I feel would be the rival from the second.

Blue is the traditional rival, who really sets the tone for rivals in the future. It became dilluted over time, but he was a constant reminder that there are people who will be snobbish. Even in defeat.

Silver is a much more deep character and meaner than Blue. And Silver is a part of the best Pokemon game out there. So my answer is Silver.

I chose Barry because he was supposed to be a child hood friend (which coincidentally he reminds me of one of mine) who has enough character to not be a random boss fight but not too much so that he's a complete twit and wailing on him every Saturday for the sake of a rematch is the best method of easy experience in D/P/P

Red from second generation definitely he just reads rival and I like the second to last and the final battle because you get to see a change in him and then you see his growth in maturity in Kanto, It just makes me warm in fuzzy after putting up with his attitude until then.

Gary. Or Blue. Whatever you want to call him.

The fact remains he's the original rival. And the original will always be the best as far as pokemon goes.

Yeah, leggy said it. Blue all the way. He had a cocky attitude that won my heart on the first playthough. I used the smell ya later line all the time after playing the original Pokémon games.

It was a tough decision between blue or Wally. Both of them had a pretty good team that somewhat gave me a challenge while playing threw the game. In the end I had to choose Wally because he had one of my favorite Pokémon of all time in his team.. Heracross. If blue had a heracross I would have choose him, but he didn't so I have to go with Wally.
