5th Gen Which Rival is more challenging?

Which is most challenging?

For me, none of the rivals were particularly "challenging" as much as they were obnoxious. I would have to say Cheren was stronger than Bianca though. N... ya he was just a pain. And him having Zekrom/Reshirem made no difference at all
 
As amazing as it is, Bianca's team left me down to my Lampent at 6 HP before I won the battle at Tubeline Bridge. Stoutland KO'd four out of six Pokemon I had there.
N? He's extremely easy because he's only used unevolved Pokemon (I think). However, I haven't battled him the last time, so who knows. Honestly, though, N having Zekrom (as I own Black) will make no difference whatsoever.
 
I think Cheren is more challenging. He seems to be the stronger of the 2.
 
I love battling N
All of his Pokemon are the same level, his teams types are predictable (based on location)
and his VS screen and music completely trumps Cheren and Bel, who share a theme...

but as long as you over-train your team, they're all easy, although Cheren gets annoying since he battles you after almost every Gym
but hey, he has a level 35 Janovy?
Meet my Level 65 Daikenki who knows Blizzard
 
Bianca for me. I HATE HER STOUTLAND!!!
 
Both generally are easy, but I'm obliged to say Cheren since he got the Pokemon which has the type-advantage over me.
 
I repeat, calling N a rival is flame bait. I'm surprised no posts have been deleted yet.

Anyway, as I have not done the full battles yet, I can't really answer now.
 
N and Bianca are both always easy to me no matter which starter I pick. My favorite rival is Cheren because I find myself actually using my whole team and having to strategize against him rather than sweeping his whole team with one or two Pokemon like I do with N and Bianca.
 
Cheren by far!! but u don't battle N that often but he is hard....Bianca caused me very little trouble i only lost to her once
 
I think N was designed to be the most difficult, but I'd say he and Cheren are pretty even. Unfortunately Bianca was a bit of a joke.
 
I'm only on the fifth badge, as I just got the game on either Saturday or Sunday, but so far N. is the hardest. His Sigilyph by the ferris wheel in Nimbasa.... I almost quit playing Black right there, it took me so long to kill it! Cheren and Bianca... they're easy.
 
Cheren by far. I've never had any difficulty with Bianca, or if you want to count him, N.

Yeah, Cheren and Bianca are tough. I heard that a lot of users reported that they had lost to Bianca.
 
I lol never lost to any of them :) but i would have to say..

[PokeCommunity.com] Which Rival is more challenging?

N = Hard (because he has all the main "good" pokemon)

[PokeCommunity.com] Which Rival is more challenging?

Cheren = OK (because he has your starters weakness)

[PokeCommunity.com] Which Rival is more challenging?

Bianca = Easy (because i just had to use Sawk and she would get defeated)

But i would have to say that..

[PokeCommunity.com] Which Rival is more challenging?

Ghetsis = Hardest (because I was suprised there was a battle after N!)

So he surprised me and was difficult at the same time.
