Hmmm, I named him Silver to commemorate my liking of PokeSpe. =P
He's violent though. XD Well maybe not as Emo as PokeSpe Silver though. =P

In G/S/C I always named him ??? because that is what they called him in the first battle XDDD
I also always got pissed at him at the start when he pushed me away O_o
I did the exact same thing.
As a child, I was rather stupid.
I actually thought that you'd find out his true name later on :P

why do i keep fooling myself, why can't i let go
this is not like me, but now i definately see

Oh, jeez, thanks! (My first post. Total coincidence :S)

I always change the names. In Red, Yellow and Gold, I named them James, James Jr. and James Sr. mainly because of the anime Rocket member, but there were other reasons.

I started Red a while back because I was 'experimenting' with MissingNo, trying to get more information on him. I was on a Xat chat page, and at the moment I had to choose the rivals name, someone mentioned their name was Dylan, so I went for it.

In R/B/Y, I named him Red (ironically) because I got Blue version first and liked it the best. :D

In G/S/C, I named him Matt at first, because he was this kid that lived near me that I didn't like. He moved away, and after that, in G/S/C, whenever I played them over again, I'd name him Silver... Uncreative, I know...

In D/P, I named him Jeff after my best friend, who are both surprisingly similar.... Even the messy blonde hair...

In R/B/Y, I normally named him Gary, but have named him some other things (that I don't remember) as well. In my current Red save file, I believe his name is Blue.

In G/S/C, I always named him ??? because that's what he told me his name was in the beginning. :P But I recently started a new Gold save file, and named him Silver.

In every Pokemon game i've named my Rival

Either Juan or Ace (if i named them Juan then my trainers name was ace)

When I play the Advance Generation games and I use the girl, The Rivals name is always Ace

They are also characters in my fanfic ;) check it out if you have time

When I was young, on the color generation games, I would just name him Gary or Blue. But, as I got older I took the time to think up names. I'd name him Tony or John or any normal names. But, then I got lazy and I started naming him stupid things like Stupid or Butt. Once I even got really lazy and just named him AAA.

In R/B/Y i named my rival Scotty, after my actual friend in real life, but always seems to be one step ahead of me just like in the games.

In G/S/C i named my rival Roche who again is my friend in real life, but looks exactly like silver and has a similar attitude, plus im waaaaayyyyy superior!
