What did you name your rivals?

Sometimes I will trade the starters to other games before I actually start playing. So I'll just name my rival "poopface", "fart", and some other stupid stuff like that.

But when I'm actually Playing I usually use the canon or anime names. Like Gary and Barry.

I have a boyfriend now; I am his princess❤️
In Soul Silver it was like "Stupid Brother" or something.

Apperently I was mad at my brother or something at the time o_O; But the name was still kinda hallerious anyways XD; And, a great pun on the name of my orrigional rival in Crystal (just named after my brother with no other strings attached), anyways.


....I called my 'rival' on Leaf Green after Brendan (thats really the reason he was called that lol). :/ The guy from Ruby and Sapphire.


I was strange. XD;
