Paul and Gary were probably the only effective rival I’ve seen for ash. In my opinion the amount of rival battles didn’t matter, it’s what they meant for ash. For Gary it was a childhood rivalry to prove that he could be a true trainer. For Paul it was proving that teamwork and trust was more important than raw power and cruel treatment. I just think these two had a more powerful impact than just “oh we are kind of equal and walk a similar path. Let’s be competitive just to be competitive”
@arktidasagency79683 жыл бұрын
I also consider both of them the best rival for Ash as well. My reason is that they test Ash main personality. Gary test Ash in his 'never give up' altitude. In their rivalry I see that Ash try to be better no matter how Gary bark how inferior Ash is to him, he also motivate Ash to better even after Johto League. Paul test Ash in his 'way of training Pokemon. Ash want to prove that his Pokemon can be strong with 'love and bonding'. If there's another rival that can be effective, I think it have to be a rival that made Ash question about his love of 'Pokemon Battle' but this Pokemon anime may need a storyline to be more violence which is not fit for a kid show like Pokemon nowadays.

Honestly I never thought of Paul as a rival because if you ask me rivalry should always be a friendly rivalry not a bully sorta rival which Paul happens to be a bully especially to poor Chimchar and Ash was simply trying to prove to Paul that any Pokemon can be trained if trained with friendship,caringness,thoughtfulness,and selflessness. That's why when Ash evolved Chimchar to Infernape the final battle against Paul with his Electivire it was simply just beautiful when they won. And then Paul and Ash gained a mutual respect for one another which I've gotta say I would have never expected to Paul to gain respect for Ash because Paul basically defines everything that Ash is not personality wise.

Imagine in Unova if Ash brought his Sinnoh team and then went to go fight Cilan Chili and Cress. It wouldn't be interesting at all for Ash, the Pokemon or the viewer unless you consider the massacring of three monkeys interesting. Plus they would've found a way to get rid of them slowly like they did in Johto to make room for the actual Pokemon of the region. So yeah thanks Gary.

Or maybe not, I could also feel like an Azelf/Mesprit/Uxie there. Cresselia no, Darkrai is already there and while it'd be fun to have the complete pair, I think he'd only have 1 out of each pair, o no Latias either As for the last one, it'd seriously be cool to see a non-legendary. It'd be a cool change, a surprise~ And what better than to have that be his starter : ) Doesn't Have to Be a starter, but it'd be ok with me! Infernape would have been a neat little strong powerhouse parallel. Empoleon is regal and could tank a lot of the legendaries' things, but I still see Infernape as the more likely one. Torterra, also a cool possibility as a calm but strong tank, but mm.. Nah. Could also be from another region. Typhlosion would be cool, Decidueye as well But overall, wouldn't see stuff like Mewtwo/Kyogre/Groudon/Palkia/Dialga/Arceus on him. Lugia/Ho-Oh are very unlikely too, but we have seen a baby Lugia so I Feel they'd be more likely. Big but not Giants or man made. But I'd prefer his surprise strongest mon being just a good ol' starter. Maybe it's a non-traditional starter, but, starter

On the other hand, Ash hasn't beaten Alain... it would be a really cool "revenge" type of battle, not to mention that Alain is maybe one of the strongest trainers in Pokemon world that we've see so far.

6:20 The Champion League is the tournament that takes place after the Pokemon League. The winner of the Pokemon League battles the Elite Four, with the winner having the right to challenge the Champion for their title. Has nothing whatsoever to do with the World Coronation Series.

If I remember correctly, The Champion League is where the winners of the regional league challenge the Elite 4 and the Champion. So I think Cynthia was basically saying she expected them to challenge her at some point. The World Championship is just a tournament where all the champions compete against each other.

That first real trainer Ash meant AJ could've been a great rival for Ash as in his early loss to AJ showed Ash that a balance between harsh training and positive reinforcement are needed to effectively training pokemon.

I think that place where Paul was is the Sinjo Region, where you get a legendary pokemon of the Sinnoh trio if you bring Arceus. Which, considering the final with Tobyas and Darkrai, kinda makes you wonder if....

I 100% think Paul is the best rival and I think he'll be coming back in Journeys along with Alan. Paul doesn't need much explanation since he and Ash take similar paths and that Cynthia mentions the Champion League which is basically the World Championship. Alan being a champion of Kalos and seeking a cure for Chespin, maybe he finds a cure and then seeks to become stronger?
