5th Gen Cheren? Bianca? But I wanted to name them Jack and Jill!

[Ho-Oh]

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" :(

 

[Ice Car]

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.

 

[Most_W4nted]

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.

 

[vaporeon7]

I wish I could name them. I don't mind the name Bianca but I don't really like the name Cheren.

 

[King Gumball]

I like it this way ;) I dont care for naming my rivals (though I used to do it just because I could) and I like Bianca and Cheren as their names. Used to them now. And they are in-game characters so I think they should have their own names.

 

[Tristz0t]

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 agree to what JP said. I never know what to name them either. So I just tend to pick any of the 3 or so options given ;D

 

[Zenfyre]

It would've been nice but at least their regular names are decent...unlike Hilbert and Hilda. -_-

 

[PlatinumDude]

I don't mind being unable to name Cheren and Bianca into whatever I like because I usually have a hard time thinking of names for my rivals when given the chance to do so.

 

[Sarcastic Prince]

I tend to name the protangonist, and the rivals with their official
names. It's actually better that the game didn't give you a choice
on naming your Rivals.

 

[TheGoddessOfDiscord]

I think you can't name them yourself because some people (including myself) tend to give their rival(s) offensive nicknames and GF doesn't like it.

 

[Rionix]

Their names pretty much suit them so yeah, i don't really mind. Cheren == cool and Bianca == Klutz. I like it :D

 

[Hibaru]

Cheren and Bianca pretty suit them well I think.

 

[GreenBeece]

Nope, I don't mind. It's easier when you name only your player.

 

[Satoshi Ookami]

I like the fact that we have rivals that cannot be named :D
It's not like it's for the first time :) And I think it's going to continue :)

 

[Pokemon Trainer Touko]

I wish I could name them. I'd probably name them after my friends. :3

 

[Citrus Knight]

I hate how they re-named Belle, Bianca in the American version. Her name is so much better as Belle instead of Bianca. Let's set aside the fact that I hate a girl name Bianca AND Belle is just prettier.

 

[Rionix]

I wish I could name them. I'd probably name them after my friends. :3

Tis` i'll probably do if ever I can name them. Ricky and Kara :D

 

[amberrelf]

I like Cheren's name cuz I get to laugh at how girly it sounds. xD
