Hey, guys! I know I said I'd make this yesterday, but I was really busy, and I had a lot of homework . So I made it today! Who, in your opinion, is Ash Ketchum from the Pokemon franchise's best rival? My personal favorites are Gary and Paul ! They were actually really mean to Ash, and in my opinion deserved their places as major rivals! Well, who's your favorite?

It has to be Gary. He has been a rival from the very beginning so a sense of good old times comes into this. He was around back when Pokemon was at its best (back when it was good in my opinion) so that makes me happy so when I see a character like that it makes e think back a few years to when I loved pokemon. I think he has cool hair too!

Local Mods : Sorry to bother you but as you can see this is in the wrong forum. It would be helpful if you could move it please.

Well I would have to say Paul . That guy was grossly overpowered . We was tough and did not keep weak Pokemon . Even though Ash beat him at the League I still think he was stronger than Ash . But the main Protagonist rarely loses . But Ash did get beat by Tobias in that final . Poor Ash . Tobias had a Darkrai and Latios . Ash was doomed

Well it has to be Gary because it was his first rival at the start of the series! Like the anime and games! Gary will always be the best in my opinion always because of his pokemon team in the games!

I think trip was really mean as a rival in pokemon to ash, I did not like him a lot, but he was really good. So my vote goes to Trip.

I have to say Gary Oak as well. They have both been rivals before they even received their first Pokemon. Really wished we could have seen the other rivals that were talked about in Pallet Town, but Gary was the one that drove Ash into becoming a better trainer in the first place. His other rivals are fine as well but Gary Oak will always be number 1. Plus he had cheerleaders.

I would like to say Gary Oak. Paul isn't that much of a rival in my opinion, just some guy who mistreats his Pokemon and just looks forward too beating Ash. 

Gary is probably more successful than Paul too...in FR/LG, he's the Pokemon Champ. But that doesn't really regard Ash, does it. 

I'd really like to see a really strong rival in a new series, if there will be one. I do not watch the anime anymore, I dislike it, but if I hear that there is a new rival that is very overpowering and beats Ash every time, I'll be hooked.

I have to go with Gary, I was just watching the first episode a few days ago and I was thinking, this guy is a great rival, and he would also be popular just because of the nostalgia with those who have been with the show since the start.

I would have to say Gary, I mean this is just a given sort of,  he is just a great rival to ash . He was his very first rival and I think that he was a very strong and capable rival of ash. Even though ash won, I still think that Gary was more powerful than him.


This is a good question and I think for the most part that most people agree that Gary is the best rival to ash. I agree as well, he was his first rival and in my opinion, he is still his best rival. 


I think they should definitely make a new, strong rival to ash as sidewinder suggested. I think it would be cool. But Gary is the best in my opinion.

I say Paul. I always found Paul to be awesome, for no good reason. Plus, he isn't a Egocentric person like Gary, if memory serves me right.

Gary was a super jerk yet Gary seems to be the only rival Ash actually had. Gary also had some strong Pokemon as well which is another reason why he seems like a good rival for ash. so I'm going to vote for Gary this time.

I am not one of those 'original FTW' kind of people, however we can all safely say Gary Oak. He's like the only one that really had a 'rivalry feeling' towards Ash. + He's the only one with a bunch of different pokemon.
