I'd would love to see Wes in his anime form throwing a snag ball.

Hello everyone! ^^ For those of you who don't know me... well, you may know me as Pichu*Star on ff.net. And if you don't know me there either... well, you could say I'm a big fan of Colosseumshipping. ^_^
Anyways, glad to find this thread revived, I thought it was gone and dead forever. T_T
Well, on topic then... As to the type of relationship Wes and Rui would have, I definitely favor the "Princess and Knight" one. The way I see it, Wes feels he has an obligation to protect Rui after rescuing her from Folly and Trudly. At first, it's probably mostly because he has a sense of honor (despite being from Team Snagem) and doesn't want a girl to be alone in Orre. Even in Phenac. (And probably also cause Rui won't take no for an answer when she asks to come with him, haha!) Rui, on the other hand, always seems to drag Wes this way and that way, and cheers him on from the sidelines like a princess cheering her champion in a jousting match! ^_^ So that's definitely how I view their relationship.
I think the "Opposites Attract" and "One-Sided Crush" approaches work as well.
Mostly, I think it's all based on the fact that Wes has to have a soft spot for her despite his criminal background; after all, why else would he let Rui follow him around for so long? ^_-

Oh my, it's still alive. x_X
Hm... lessee... how can I revive this poor thread... Um, well, a new topic, I guess.
Working slightly off of what Nintenfreak said, here's the topic:
What do you think Wes and Rui's lives have become by the time the events of Pokemon XD occur?
Ok, maybe that's a poor question, but it's late at night here. >>; Mostly, I'm interested not only in WHERE they went off to, but what careers they have chosen for themselves (they are about in their mid-20s during XD, after all), and how Wes has settled into his life of no crime (or if he's settled at all?).
For example, I of course like to think that Wes and Rui have eventually chosen to marry one another, and have moved somewhere, like to Johto, where Wes can finally leave his criminal past behind for good and they can raise a family in peace. I think Wes would probably do something to continue apprehending dangerous criminals, with all that experience behind him, and perhaps work solo at it to boot. Something along the lines of what Lance does in the anime (Pokemon G-man), working undercover to stop teams like Team Rocket. Rui would probably do something caring for Pokemon, or perhaps just caring for other people. Perhaps a Pokemon daycare? ^^
Of course, I'm always interested in the alternate--suppose Wes couldn't escape his dark past and had to leave Rui in order to protect her from it? Would Rui still be trying to pursue him (I think she would; she's rather determined)? Would she have become a strong Pokemon trainer in the meantime so she can search for him? Tee hee. I'd like to see everyone else's take on it as well. ^_^
Eh, I don't know if a topic like this has already come up before or not, but it's been so long that it's probably irrelevant. >>; Besides, I'm sure you all have come up with some fresh ideas since then, anyways. XD Your thoughts, everyone?
*thinks of Wes in a G-Man spy outfit* I think he'd keep his clothing, xDD just because he's Wes and he has his own style. Which is goodThe G-men idea sounds pretty good too. Wes'd look cool in a spy outfit... ^^;;
