Who do you believe was the rival with best Pokemon or just best sportsman ship. I'm guessing all were a bit sassy but, my choice goes with May from Emerald. She was the only one who wasn't in your business all the time. Sure at times, a little too confident but still wasn't annoying. What are your thoughts?

Best sportsmanship? Barry/Pearl/whatever you named him.
He was still competitive and a pretty decent battler, but he was mature enough to back off when he lost, and not insult you like Gary and Silver. I don't really count Dawn, you never did actually battle her, and May/Brendan was a wimp.

But the only one that really had a rival feel, probably because he was the only one that made it as far as he did, was Gary/Blue/whatever you named him.

EDIT: You forgot Wally! He was the real rival of R/S/E, he should be up there.

i have been playing the new heartgold pokemon game and i love the rival for one big reason. because he's a villian! other rivals (like may, brendan, and barry) are not villians. so, they actually have a point in the game.

No he technically, isn't. He wanted to defeat Team Rocket so badly because of his *Spoilers* Dad, Giovanni(Yes, Giovanni, Team Rocket Leader). *Spoilers end here*. Also, he changes towards the end but yeah, he is rather a little too confident on what he can do and who he is.

I think Gary of the elit four(yellow version)was a bit difficult for me, because the first time I made it there, I run out of potions.
Thank's God I was too lucky to lose

Yeah, I like Barry. His personality was well programed, just the type I like; Maybe a bit annoying, and perhaps a bit 'weak', but at least not as damn stupidly annoying the others were.

Since these choices seem to be based off of the games & not the animé, you forgot to add Dawn(rival if you're a dude) & Gold(rival if you're Silver).



EDIT: In case you're wondering, I picked Gary. He seemed to have the most skill out of all of them since he started at the same time as Ash did & grew as a trainer so I'd put him at around the same level of skill as Ash has if he'd stayed as a trainer. He also wasn't as stupid as Ash was when it came to recognizing Team Rocket in their disguises such as wearing glasses like Clark Kent for example..........

You play as Silver if you actually play Pokémon Silver instead of Pokémon Crystal.

It was Gary, he just had the "You Suck, Ash!" attitude. He also was a better competition, than the rest. "Huh, I'm Gary Oak, and Ash Ketchum is a Loser with a capital L!"

Gary is one great rivals of Ash. He is one of Ash's greatest rivals, who is also cool, He has an awesome team of great Pokemons, and is one main rival in the original series. Yah, his team is good, filled with super powerful pokemons. If I was Ash, I would like Gary to be my opponent.

gotta say Blue was the best rival. He stars at exactly the same time as you, starts off with a type advantage.. which makes you work even harder at beating him.. He was also cool in the comics.. so it was all good lol

They all start with a type advantage lol. And they all (except for Wally) start at the exact same time as you, to the point of the both of you receiving your first, lvl. 5 Pokemon at the same time .

I also feel that in the manga (pokemon adventures, the one that almost actually follows the game story) blue was a really cool Rival to Red (your character) unlike teh game Rivals I face in the games.. blue was able to put aside differences, and was more realistic to me as a TRUE rival than any of the others. Even after Blue lost he still had that.. 'dont worry ill get you next time..' attitude which was awesome^^.

But then again that's enhanced when RED shows up in silver and gold, and utterly totals you the first time you fight him at the mountain.

I haven't seen another game where the hero from the last game appears, and pounds you totally with your new team. When I think that Blue helped create THAT, I have to say Blue is the best, because RED is the best, win or lose.
