Cheren? Bianca? But I wanted to name them Jack and Jill!
Yes, lame title is lame. XD
So, with Pokemon Black and Pokemon White we are unable to name our rivals, similar to Pokemon Ruby, Pokemon Sapphire and Pokemon Emerald. What do you think? Do you think the characters being called Bianca and Cheren suits them and you wouldn't name them anything else, don't mind or would you have liked to have named them, whether after your friends or whatever. XD Personally, I don't mind. Although I normally like naming my rivals after people who are close to em so they actually feel like "rivals", they have enough character to make them seem like rivals anyway. |
I don't mind at all as I usually never know what to name my rivals haha. I tend to just name them by their official names anyways, so didn't bother me one bit.
|
I just name them what there official names are. I don't really mind. Plus, I think those names suit them. Or I've just gotten used to them.
|
Lol at the title. I want to name them Blondie and nerd. xD
|
i wish we had the option i love naming my rivals after my friends
|
Like posters above me, I name them whatever their official name is anyway, so if I had had the option to name I'd have named them "Bel" and "Cheren" anyhow. I generally use the Japanese name instead of the English name b/c it's more suiting (i.e. Jun > Barry) but sometimes I like the English name better (i.e. Brendan, May).
|
I don't really mind. In HGSS, I named my rival Silver, soo...
|
It makes it more unique if you ask me.
|
I wish I could've named them. :/ I really don't see any reason why we couldn't. It's not like there's voice acting or anything. I guess the names are hard-scripted in instead of just variables that the script grabs from but... would it have been so hard to implement that? :(
|
I don't mind, I would have named them their official names anyway.
|
It really bothers me. The name 'Bianca' is so ugly ugly ugly. Now I'm tortured to hear that name forever--I would've named them Jeremy and Aelita.
Cookies to whoever gets the reference. |
I understand why people would like to name their own rivals and such but I'm one of those who would use official names anyway so good thing they already did it for me XD.
|
I'm one of those people that really doesn't mind after all we can't think of any good names cane we?
|
I never rename the characters in my games, so to me it's perfectly fine this way. If I could name them, their names would be quite foul indeed. |
I don't mind, I happen to like their names. Though I liked Belle better than Bianca, but i'll live.

You may find that in some games, as with life, you don't always have control over the names of everyone. This may come as a shock to you, but yes, the names of other people can be out of your control. In time, I think you'll be able to accept this as reality and be able to GET OVER IT!
|
I don't really care. Though the names do fit them somehow.
|
I don't mind it at all. It saves me the fifteen minutes of stress in which I would be sitting there trying to think of good names before ending up giving them the default names.

I don't mind if they are named anything.
|
I actually like the names of Cheren and Bianca, and at least when we're referring to the rivals we all know who they are instead of just known as "rivals" :(
|
I don't give either way. In fact I sort of like their names, but I'm usually devoid of ideas so if I even had the choice I would go with their predetermined names.
|
Hmm well personally I would have liked to name Cheren Black and Bianca Grey or something =P But I heard that Cheren means Black in Bulgarian anyway =D
|
I don't mind that the option isn't there. Sure, I like naming my rivals. but I'm fine with that ability taken away from me. Still, it sort of takes away from the experience when I can't replay the game, name my rival something inappropriate, then laugh for about twenty seconds when it appears that one of the characters in the game is insulting my rival.
Still, not that much of a problem. |
I actually liked not having the option of not being able to name my rivals. I never know what to name them, so it was a relief that I didn't have to skip over it at all. It also made the beginning flow more smoothly without having another long pause at the start.
