lol last time Ash had a Female rival in any form, must have been Casey and Macey, and lets face it, they were pathetic!
Well that's true but at least they tried the plots with a different character's sometimes. For instance Mamoswine going rogue was a rehash of Charizard for sure but at least they tried it with a new trainer who was to inexperienced to control it at the time and not Ash again. Doing rehashes with Ash is terrible because it downgrades his character. Paul made Ash look like a fool all region and I would hate to see this happen to him again in the future. Maybe they could make his next rivalry a little more even?
Ash never had a female rival which means he should and her personality should be like zoey and gary together. that would make things interesting but would paul go with ash to the next region as a rival again????
That was the best part of Sinnoh! You want a rivalry as stale as Dawn and Kenny? Best thing is that Paul isn't going to make a fool out of Ash at the end of the region. It was all just to set the league up, so I think the writers did exceptionally well in that regard.
Wow, that's some screwed up logic right there... not to be rude but ''He never had one, so he should'' isn't a very convincing reason. I don't deny the fact that it would make it more interesting, but it doesn't matter to me if the rival happens to be male, but interesting like Paul, not the same but equally interesting. It's like this feminist guy who's on tv here in the Netherlands. He wants a woman to be mayor of Amsterdam, even if there are better candidates who happen to be male. Sure, I'm all for women in power, but you're kidding yourselves when you want a woman to take the spot, regardless of better options.
That being said, I'd happily greet a female rival (can't stress this enough, I'm scared of feminist retaliation), if she is as interesting as Paul was, or just really interesting in her own right. If she's just going to be Ash's main rival, for the sake of having a female mainrival for once, and be as bland as Kenny, well screw that and give me whatever better reject there was brought up.
Aside from this debate. Zoey and Gary molded into one character? A bland, lesbian, cocky rival who's almost never around and if she is lectures everybody about what they should do?? Sign me up!!
Lol, Paul will most likely leave for the Kanto Battle Frontier. If Ash does truly show Paul the light at the end of their battle, Paul might think that Ash's training style is the key for beating Brandon.
What if in the next gen we'll have a slightly older Ash...appearance-wise?
YES. I want this to be the place where Brock leaves for a better future, dawn wins and she goes off to do her stuff, and Ash takes a break for a while after winning a league. Would also be fitful, cause to be honest just from the look of the sprites for BW, the future characters seem to be kinda older.What if in the next gen we'll have a slightly older Ash...appearance-wise?
Ash and Paul's rivalry is great but do you honestly want to see another repeat of it next region with Paul wearing a girl's wig and dress? They can't just keep doing that all region and expect us not to notice. Ash get's beat by rival when they first meet, Ash loses again, Ash loses a 6 on 6 battle against his rival. When we went from Johto to Hoenn Ash didn't have a rival after Gary until the leauge so it was a break and then Sinnoh we got Paul. Going from Paul to Paulina in generation 5 and have her beat Ash everyday until the league is to predictable and boring. Why not have Ash beat his rival the first time for once just to shake it up. Sorry but I'm not looking foward to a Paul wannabe.

All the lesbian commentsHomophobic remarks?
Did I miss anything?
All the lesbian comments
So what if they are lesbians?There are many gay-like characters in animes in general.In pkmn there are Harley,James,possibly Nando,Zoey but constant comments about someones sexuality is annoying
