In Silver, my rival was called Gold and it was the other way round for my Gold version. In Crystal, I named my rival Yosami for no reason at all. In the first generation games, all of my rivals were known as Gary. I was hooked on the anime back then.
I started off naming it after real life rivals or people I just plain hated. After a few years, and several restarts, I began using more... obscene... names. When I recently went back to the metal/color games, I started using serious names once more.
His name..Is Robert.
For some reason yesterday when I named him I had the sudden erge to call him Robert,so that's what I said his name is.
...Robert fits him.
