in GSC, i called Silver "Dumbo". not after the elephant.
in RBY, i just went simple and called him "John".
i didn't learn his name was Gary until i watched the first episode of Pokémon.

He told me his name was "???", so I gave that name to the fuzz.

I really didn't know you could make it be anything you want.
I did this intentionally the last time I restarted Silver, just because I wanted to be a smart alec. XD

Otherwise, I just go with Silver (which is what he's named in Crystal currently, if I recall correctly).
Professional ninja. May or may not actually be back. Here for the snark and banter at most.

I named him Gary. Because Gary was a rival on the pokemon show. Now I'm going to use Paul because he is the current Rival.

What's done is done with EGL I do not want it to ever be revived, we want to progress to the future and evolve not go back in time. The times we had were fun and the memories will live on in our hearts to those that contribute. Now it's time for the next big thing to have a longer run than us, and thanks to Venks, speedy 101, shinypoke666, evilcheese, Ito_Igami, Ktn, darkspace, dunlop, Abyay, and Umanouski; the Original 12 in EGL and for making this league quite special. I'd also like to thank Shin although he wasn't an original member his contributions throughout the league were apperciated greatly, and I had a real blast meeting/getting to know a lot of you this was a wonderful expirence/journey and hopefully we can all hang again.

I used to think that too.

Nowadays, I call him Douche, because of the Super Effective comic strips (Number 2)

I usually name my rivals after my brother, being either "JAO" or "Jordan". I just love destroying my rival in battles, because it reminds me of how much I defeat my brother! Hahaha!

In G/S/C I always named him Jack as that's the name of the only other person in my class who likes Pokemon.
In R/S/E I named your rival Brendan if I was playing as May, or May if I was playing as Brendan.
In Fr/Lg I named him Gary for obvious reasons
And finally in D/P I named him Paul, again for obvious reasons.

I named him Green, because I love the manga. Later, I named him Mistake. I mean, he's GOT to be a mistake. His own grandfather couldn't remember his name.
