@paulrocks247 You cant even hear her voice, why would you find her annoying. Or what are you annoyed that she is a weak rival ? or because she mess up your house? either way i cant tink of a good reason. So would you please enlighten me as to how she was "annoying" ?
Damn did the rival music ever change over the years. At first it was aggressive sounding like damn this is gonna be a tough battle. Now it just doesn't give that intense battle feel.
It's kinda weird...my favorite in-game music whenever I played a Pokemon game (I've beaten every generation) was always Silver's theme, but here I think gary's sounds a lot cooler.
The main problem I had with the "rivals" in B/W was that although they were fleshed out, they were fleshed out to be an annoying little b*tch and a prick, both of which served only to challenge me to a fight when I hadn't saved in a while, scaring the hell out of me, and then get curb-stomped. And complain about if for about a minute.
@LordDeathkeeper Same here, I just don't like them as characters. N was very interesting except they didn't do enough with him for me. Silver's little backstory with Celebi's time travel was quite good, Silver's always been the most interesting for me.
Pokemon Silver: Sweet, got the Hive Badge. I'll just go on, no need to heal up-- Ack! NO, not this guy again!
Pokemon Red: Okay, I know better. First thing to do in a town is go to the Pokemon Center. Okay, out of Mt. Moon... wait, what's that bridge up there?--Ack! NO, not this guy again!
Pokemon Sapphire: Oh, there's May. She probably just wants to talk like the last time--Ack! NO, why did you have to evolve your Mudkip?!
@4072 Heh. if you think about it, the only reason he became Champion was because he's the only one you didn't battle just before the Elite 4 or Victory Road. xP You beat Silver, Wally, Pearl (Barry). Bianca doesn't really care to challenge them. The former three all decide that there's no point in challenging the Elites if you'd just beat them. So they decide to train a bit more.
And actually, Cheren defeats the Elite Four as well, which is all Blue did.
im not gonna lie i was 12 when i got pokemon diamond, it was my first pokemon game ever and i enjoyed it, but the weird thing is that i grew up watching the origanal anime series so i thought that diamond was the best, but i played pokemon red and crystal on my cousins gameboy and i was astonished, it looked primitive but it was better!!!!
@MrMario65 When I got the chance to play Blue few weeks ago, I was thrilled first. When I started it, I was really dissapointed. Was that what everybody was talking about... I couldn't believe it. The thing is not the same with Gold which I grew up with.
I'll say this. out of all of these, i feel Sliver the most intimidating. Yes Gary is more stronger that him but his tone is very harsh and mean while gary is more of just being a dick...
And the other overall are pretty same of a trainers
Also. why does B/W sound like a marioparty minigame music?!?!
I really don't count your alternate gender counterpart in Rby/S/E as your rival since you only fight him/her, what, 3 times? Wally is more antagonistic than he/she is. You don't even get to see the final evolved form of Brandon/May's starter. PATHETIC.
Now, I dunno about everyone else, I actually had a difficult time with Cheren, and both him, Bianca, and N would show up at the worst times like the prick that is Gary. Still, at least their placement made sense.
@joytotheworld56 N is really a rival . He is consider as a Antagonist because he was part of the Plasma Team since he wanted to liberate Pokemon from People. Although, he understanded Pokemon as friends at the end of the game
I find it so weird that when I saw my sister playing Ruby, when I had by then beaten the game, she was a girl in the game, and Brandon would never shut up... I thought he was quiet...well play as the girl, and May'll be quiet.
Eason why blue is the best: Play y/b/r get, your fist pokm, lose to blue.. real quick leave oak's house, go to virdian city, use cheats to get into giovani's gym, check th list of trainer who beat the gym already, . . . . . . . . . . . exactly.....
Man, I kinda miss the douchebag rivals of the first two generations. It gave me a reason to really want to kick their asses. Cheren's stuck-up attitude was a step in the right direction at least.
Wally in R/S/E is more of a rival than Brendan/May. While Brendan/May battle you 4 times, Wally is there at the end of Victory Road being like: Thanks for helping me catch a Ralts, now i'm going to crush your dreams of becoming champion.
All of them are good, except for the B/W themes. B/Ws music really flopped in my opinion, and if anyone noticed, a TON of the music sounds the same, just being variations on one piece, and a ton of the music sounded stupid and poorly done. Gen. 3 and 4 FTW
@ISetCheezOnFire I disagree. I liked the Black and White rival theme and I loved Castelia City's theme. I also liked the roaming legendary pokemon fight theme as well. None of the other cities were too great though, and the elite four theme was repetitive and got on my nerves. I thought 4 was the worst generation of them all (not saying it was bad necesarily, just not as good as the others). 1 was my absolute favorite, 2 was a good one and so was 3. 5 has the best plot of any of them.
Is Gary/Green the only challenging Rival out of all 5 regions? I mean seriously, the other rivals, espcially May and Bianca, don't wnna sound sexist, don't even count to me. In my eyes, they're just free exp...
Poor Gary/Blue. He had to share his theme with mediocre trainers while everyone else got their own themes. Wonder why? Oh, yeah. That's right. He became Champion and became the only Rival with a Champion theme.
Gary is Green in JAPANESE manga. In English, he's Blue (proof: Leader Blue from Johto).
He was originally called Green because in Japan, they had a Green version as their counterpart to Red version. In English, we had a Blue version. As a result, his Japanese name means "Green" and he's called Blue in any English-speaking community.
I am sorry to all who disagree but Silver is the most evil. "Now to contin-HOW'D YOU GET IN FRONT OF ME?!?" plus he stole his starter, which is pretty badass to me.
why no love for bianca i always found her to be tuffer then cheren. mostly cuse bianca was the only one of the 2 who K.O'd me (mostly cuse i forgot to heal xD) and i found she was the only one outside of the E-4 and N who had a good team
gary: STOP FOLLOWING ME YOU **** STALKER! AND STOP ACTING LIKE A 4 YEAR OLD
silver:really bad ass and one of the best rivals if not the best xD to bad about going good at the end. that kinda ruined it >_>
may: i take it you tuck stalker lessons from gary?
Platinum [I dunno, I haven't read this far in the Manga, so he might be Pearl, idk sorry] (Barry)'s father is a Frontier Brain of the most common tower.
Bianca's Father you have to meet in order to progress in the early parts of the game (Seems to be a trend here, eh?
Cheren's father is the same as Bianca's.
Yeah, so you end up meeting all of the fathers of your rival sometime. Huh.
@DiceKinz Yeah, Lucas' manga equivalent is Diamond, Barry's is Pearl, and Dawn's is Platinum (though most often shortened to Platina).
But uh...I don't know where you got the idea that Cheren and Bianca are siblings or anything. They're just friends, and with two separate families. Cheren has his own father. A bald man found in his house in the lower-right of Nuvema Town.
Anyone else notice that you always meet your Rival's Dad?
Name Order:Manga (Games)/ Anime
Green (Blue)/ Gary's father is Professor Oak, Y'know, the on who games you your first Pokemon?
Silver's father is the boss of the biggest crime organization in the Kanto/Johto region... Y'know, them? Probably killed your dog? Oh, EXCUSE ME, Your Poochyena?
Sapphire (May)'s father is also a Pokemon professor who gives you your first Pokemon.
@xDeathWalkx Try beating may's sceptile with a swampert. every attack she did with sceptile did 4x damage due to super effective moves. The rest were correct for me though.
@VoltJoeSantiago I used to have the same problem. Of course, he becomes a pushover once you catch Kyurem. I guess it really depends on your starter the most, and what version you play. For example, Samurott used to be another tank, mostly because I spent most of my time training Emboar. Then, when I finally beat Ghetsis and got my Zekrom, it was easy from there on out. Zekrom is pretty much my counter to any water type.
@xDeathWalkx it's really killing me what they've done to Pokemon. They used to take time, determination and skill; now I can beat 'em in a week with no challenge whatsoever. The pokemon themselves have become either boring&weak for too long or WAY too powerful; some with very wonky stats (like Zebstrika, for example -_-). Even Emerald's rivals were too easy! D/P/P were ridiculously unskilled. They had potential and poured exp, but it was like they were letting you win. Bianca...just...*facepalm*
Blue is the most cut throat, most challenging rival ever. They do not make rivals like him anymore but red is the hardest trainer(champion) to date :-) thumbs up so people can see who agrees
@Lotsofkilledvids Perhaps he is the most challenging and cut throat as you so put it.... However, Cheren and Bianca are far more HUMAN and believable characters.
They weren't just people put into the game so you'd have a "rival" character. They are deeply involved in the storyline, they had their own ideals, etc. All in all, I personally believe this makes them the BEST rival characters so far.
Red and Blue are badasses and all, but Cheren and Bianca were actually fleshed out
Theres no deep explaination, compared to the other rivals, even compared to Barry those two are just unneeded. I dont think making them seem more "human" proves anything or makes them the best, Rivals have been going downhill since the start and to be honest, i would rather Gen5 have no rival because the story had no use for them. N was the nearest thing to a good Gen5 rival.
@M1KE2K You keep dodging the question. You say you have no explanation, yet you say they suck compared to others. If you don't have a reason, then you hate them for the sake of hating them. They're not just a "rival" character. They're friends, allies, and have deep involvement in the story. Their presence makes the story much more interesting, because you have two different perspectives on every issue.
What makes Blue or Silver any better in your opinion?
@M1KE2K Do you hate Cheren and Bianca because they aren't as threatening as Blue and Silver? Honestly, Cheren and Bianca are easily the most developed characters compared to the other rivals...
Blue:Eh,not bad.He did pretty well going against me in my gym battle.BLUE MOTHERFING OAK FTW!!!!!
Silver:Silent Badass,hands down
May:She gave me a run for my f!%$ing money.
Wally:I feel bad for him.I comepletely crushed him at Victory Road.I should have let him win :(
Barry:Hyper,hyper,hyper,hyper,and hyper.He's the strongest rival you will ever face in the pokemon game series(if you keep battling him daily,his pokemon gets into the 80's).He has to lay off the Red Bull and Steroids.
Silver has the best story, You'll know if you beat him at every single encounter in Silver/Gold. He is dark and cruel, and has a change of heart. He's the best to me, but I am yet to get B/W, so we'll see
I like the character growth of the first two rivals but after that they all felt to cookie cutter. Gary Oak from R/B/Y to G/S/C to me seemed to grow alot as a person, being humbled by Red enough will have that effect on you. And Silver went from a 'tough' guy to truely understanding how to have a relationship with his pokemon as friends and not just tools. The others just seemed to me to be there to make you have to backtrack to a pokemon center after a mildly annoying fight mixed with hints.
i think wally was the best rival. my opinon may be jaded towards the RSE gen but, the last battle at the end of victory road was highly unexpected. and that was a battle that u did NOT wana lose.
Cheren didn't work as a rival for me. He just...wasn't badass. It was felt like I was just beating up some of those weirsly-chosen trainer types, instead of my rival.
@thenewcrowXfeather1 Mind you in both the last gen games, the rivals themselves are less intense, being just your buddies. Gary was a douchebag and Sliver was a both a theif and he pushed me! What a dick. However the Unova Pals and Barry were just well meaning guys who wanted a friendly battle.
i loved diamond/pearl for the sole reason there was no barrage of trainers on victory road *_* because barry wiped em all out, and i just got an entertaining fight with him. :D win

Name Order:Manga (Games)/ Anime
Green (Blue)/ Gary's father is Professor Oak, Y'know, the on who games you your first Pokemon?
Silver's father is the boss of the biggest crime organization in the Kanto/Johto region... Y'know, them? Probably killed your dog? Oh, EXCUSE ME, Your Poochyena?
Sapphire (May)'s father is also a Pokemon professor who gives you your first Pokemon.

Gary would ambush you
Silver had the best change of personality (villain-like to great trainer)
Ruby and Sapphire rivals were pretty easy to beat
Wally was a pushover...until Victory Road...wtf with all his rares and high level pokemon
Barry appeared at random times
Bianca had no idea what the heck she was doing
Cheren is probably the closest to Ash's personality, always wanting to be the best and prove himself, definitely my most favorite rival

1. Blue (He is the only rival with a team that can actually kick your ass, plus he's the only rival who actually managed to become a champion)
2. Silver (His personality and backstory are definitely the best of the bunch)
3. Cheren (His team is kinda cool, plus he is the rival I can identify myself with the most)
4. Barry (He's funny, plus his team is rather good, so...)
5. Brendan/May (The only rival who is also considered a love interest, which I think the Pokèmon games needs more of)

It's funny that with each passing generation, each rival becomes weaker and less of a threat.
I remember Blue popping out of nowhere and go "fuuuuu!" and i'd have a good 50/50 chance of lossing.
Silver? Quite a challenge.
May dished me my free exp.
Barry was way too annoying.
Then Cheren was a stuck up weak waste of time.
Bianca... Shes not even a rival, one of the Ace trainers was more difficult than her.

@xDeathWalkx Try beating may's sceptile with a swampert. every attack she did with sceptile did 4x damage due to super effective moves. The rest were correct for me though.

@VoltJoeSantiago I used to have the same problem. Of course, he becomes a pushover once you catch Kyurem. I guess it really depends on your starter the most, and what version you play. For example, Samurott used to be another tank, mostly because I spent most of my time training Emboar. Then, when I finally beat Ghetsis and got my Zekrom, it was easy from there on out. Zekrom is pretty much my counter to any water type.

SecretiveSpyDude 6 days ago
@xDeathWalkx it's really killing me what they've done to Pokemon. They used to take time, determination and skill; now I can beat 'em in a week with no challenge whatsoever. The pokemon themselves have become either boring&weak for too long or WAY too powerful; some with very wonky stats (like Zebstrika, for example -_-). Even Emerald's rivals were too easy! D/P/P were ridiculously unskilled. They had potential and poured exp, but it was like they were letting you win. Bianca...just...*facepalm*

Blue is the most cut throat, most challenging rival ever. They do not make rivals like him anymore but red is the hardest trainer(champion) to date :-) thumbs up so people can see who agrees
Lotsofkilledvids 2 weeks ago 31
@Lotsofkilledvids Perhaps he is the most challenging and cut throat as you so put it.... However, Cheren and Bianca are far more HUMAN and believable characters.
They weren't just people put into the game so you'd have a "rival" character. They are deeply involved in the storyline, they had their own ideals, etc. All in all, I personally believe this makes them the BEST rival characters so far.
Red and Blue are badasses and all, but Cheren and Bianca were actually fleshed out

@M1KE2K Why's that? Because they're given personality? Because they appear on every route? Because they're friends?
If you're going to say something is bad, I would at least expect an explanation for said belief.
DigitalxGamer 5 days ago
@DigitalxGamer
Theres no deep explaination, compared to the other rivals, even compared to Barry those two are just unneeded. I dont think making them seem more "human" proves anything or makes them the best, Rivals have been going downhill since the start and to be honest, i would rather Gen5 have no rival because the story had no use for them. N was the nearest thing to a good Gen5 rival.
M1KE2K 5 days ago
@M1KE2K You keep dodging the question. You say you have no explanation, yet you say they suck compared to others. If you don't have a reason, then you hate them for the sake of hating them. They're not just a "rival" character. They're friends, allies, and have deep involvement in the story. Their presence makes the story much more interesting, because you have two different perspectives on every issue.
What makes Blue or Silver any better in your opinion?
DigitalxGamer 5 days ago
@DigitalxGamer don't forget that Cheren helped you beat Team Plasma. Bianca's just a bodyguard.

LindaFusa 2 weeks ago
I like the character growth of the first two rivals but after that they all felt to cookie cutter. Gary Oak from R/B/Y to G/S/C to me seemed to grow alot as a person, being humbled by Red enough will have that effect on you. And Silver went from a 'tough' guy to truely understanding how to have a relationship with his pokemon as friends and not just tools. The others just seemed to me to be there to make you have to backtrack to a pokemon center after a mildly annoying fight mixed with hints.

i think wally was the best rival. my opinon may be jaded towards the RSE gen but, the last battle at the end of victory road was highly unexpected. and that was a battle that u did NOT wana lose.

@thenewcrowXfeather1 Mind you in both the last gen games, the rivals themselves are less intense, being just your buddies. Gary was a douchebag and Sliver was a both a theif and he pushed me! What a dick. However the Unova Pals and Barry were just well meaning guys who wanted a friendly battle.

@momoandmiz This is how I think of it:
Blue and Ruby (Brendan) are brothers, since they share that smug, trollish look.
Saphire (May) and Cheren are close cousins, Cheren being the more sophisticated.
Emerald (Wally) is the cousin of Barry and Bianca, who are brother and sister.
And Silver doesn't have a family, leading him into a life of crime and badassness.
