      Cameron gets an F for failure. Because he did NOT deserve to beat Ash in Unova, regardless of Ash’s lack of a brain at the time. But Morrison is one of the better rivals. I think he’s extremely underrated, and a victim to a lack of screen time. Morrison should’ve been introduced way earlier on. It made no sense for May to be the only one with rivals at the time.

    I just realized something about Sawyer. He's Trip done right. A newbie trainer who is a rival to an experienced Ash. But, Sawyer only wins one battle, and is based on him admiring Ash so much he analyzed all of Ash's Pokemon carefully. Sawyer also had a personality and a much more compelling reason for a rivalry. Trip hated people from Kanto, but Sawyer admired Ash and saw him as "the" person to beat.

    Gary oak
    i remember how much i hated that guy, always trying to be much better than ash and even making fun of him whenever he has the chance. I even remember how satisfying it was when giovanni defeated him, but it was also an interesting way to slowly make gary realize that he isn't perfect, and little by little he started to become less mean and more humble. And it makes me proud of him in how far he has come in becoming a pokemon researcher ^^
    Ritchie
    I'll admit, as a kid i hated that Ritchie won against ash in the league but i also still remember that after the next ep where ash was depressed cuz of his loss, ritchie gives him a very important lesson that winning isn't everything and i did felt something about what he said. (As a kid, i was always angry whenever i lost any game) and his words were something that helped me learn about accepting defeat and learn from mistakes. So yea, he is one of my favorite rivals.
    Harrison
    I thought he was pretty cool, i still remember how freaked out yet so excited i got when i saw his blaziken being introduced during the johto season, it got me so excited for gen 3 XD
    Morrison
    He may not be one of the best rivals but i think he was kinda ok. I mostly loved the ep where he had so many doubts in battling against ash in the league, but ash gave him the motivation to battle, showing him that battles is about having fun with other trainers, no matter if the results come out as winning or losing.
    Tyson
    I really like this guy, and i also love his badass meowth, which i honestly feel so bad for. His poor meowth developed a huge hatred against all persians because a persian brutally beat him, which caused him to hate all persians in general. even team rocket's meowth showed a lot of support for tyson's meowth. I still remember how freaking out i got when tyson's meowth not only defeated a persian in the pokemon league but it also wanted to freaking MURDER it!! Glad that tyson quickly got it back in it's pokeball before things got messy 😨
    Paul
    Ugh........ i know many people love paul, but I'm honestly not fond with him. In a nutshell, paul is a freaking pokemon abuser. He never sees pokemon as friends, he only sees pokemon as tools of power. And not only he mentally abused chimchar but he also abandoned him for being "weak and pathetic", which makes me glad that ash decided to make chimchar part of his team, which is why ash defeating paul with infernape was one of the most satisfying victories for ash. And it was also the perfect way for infernape to get payback against paul. Also paul getting easily defeated by cynthia and the pyramid king are also my favorite battles from the sinnoh series, just seeing paul getting owned by not just the pyramid king but also defeated by the sinnoh champion was just awesome 😂
    But yea, paul is just freaking unlikable to me, yea i know that maybe he does change a bit after his defeat against ash, but i am still not that fond of him.
    Barry
    I love barry! He always made me laugh whenever he appeared in the anime 😂
    Nando
    I don't remember that much about him, but him being a rival to both ash and dawn was pretty interesting
    Conway
    This guy... kinda confused me a lot. I didn't get in why he always acted very... creepy around anybody, especially dawn o____o
    Tobius
    SCREW THIS FREAKING... UGH!!! I don't even wanna talk about him 😒
    Trip
    Ok, i may not like paul, but i will admit that paul is way better than trip. Trip was a jerk but in a very annoying unlikable way, and i don't mean in gary oak style, trip was just... intolerable. Gary made a way better job in being a jerk than trip.
    Bianca
    She is totally ok, but i kinda always found it freaking annoying that whenever she appeared, she comes running while repeatedly saying "get out of the way! Get out of the way! Get out of the way!" While always accidentally pushing ash... like... girl why are you even running in the first place with your eyes closed??? You can just walk! -________-
    But yea, she is still an ok rival.
    Stephen
    Just like bianca, he is a totally ok character.
    Cameron
    Yea i get why people hate him for defeating ash with just 5 pokemon but come on guys, at least he isn't tobius. But i do agree that he isn't one of the best rivals. He is ok to me.
    Virgil
    I like this guy. Yea he may won the pokemon league but i didn't mind that at all. And i like that he has most of the eeveelution pokemon ^^
    Tierno
    He is a very fun rival! And i like that his style of battling is done with dancing 😁
    Trevor
    He is also ok. Not one of the best rivals but still ok.
    Sawyer
    This guy was very good. And i agree! A rival doesnt have to be a jerk in order to be a great rival.
    Alain
    Yes yes yes!! This guy is amazing! And i love in how much he cares for his pokemon, and shows how strong he is with his charizard. And of course, some people are still mad that he won the league... but i honestly had no problem with that at all, i liked how the league concluded, and second place for ash was ok to me too. His rivalry with ash was just awesome! 👍
    Kiawe
    Another one of my favorites! It was nice to see this character teach ash about the alola region and also teaching him new things about battles and z moves.
    Gladion
    Yes! I love gladion! He is the total opposite of paul. He may look like the typical horrible careless trainer like paul, but unlike paul, gladion shows so much care for pokemon, he sees them as his friends and his rivalry with ash was so good. And his relationship with lillie is just so sweet.
    Hau
    I really liked hau. I didn't thought he was boring at all, but omg... his loss in the alola league was just so hard to watch, the poor guy didn't had to lose like that...
    And the rival from i choose you
    Eh. Just like tobias, i don't care about him. He's just stupid 😑

I like how in the lake acuity battle, when Monferno is sent out, you can see Electabuzz smiling upon noticing that this Pokemon has evolved from the Chimchar he knows and has battled against. Plus, their battle in the Sinnoh league, when they are both fully evolved and at their best is nothing short of legendary. This just goes to show how Ash and Paul's rivalry is... well, unrivaled.

    Ritchie is there because they brought him back in Johto for no reason, and missed the opportunity for Ash to rematch him in the Johto league, and Gary is here because they butchered the classic red vs blue rivalry, doing nothing with there rivalry in kanto and at first I thought they would put a twist on it in Johto since there first battle at the end of the orange islands is a reference to Pokémon Yellow, but nope, nothing happens. The rivalry script was right there in the games and had its own potential but they did nothing with it, one of the many reasons why the original series is my least favorite and why I consider it garbage.

    So apparently Trip didn't like Ash according to Bulbapedia because Ash was from Kanto

      You can say the kid is xenophobic, but I'm surprised he doesn't do that to Dawn (they've never had a conversation so let's ignore that)

    You can’t put Morrison with Cameron. That is unacceptable. He was a funny guy who saw Ash as more a friend than a rival, and I love how that was reflected in their battle. And hey, Ash beat him anyway.

    To me Sawyer was the best rival. His focus was solely on Ash. He spent his time learning and analyzing Ash and his personal battling style. XY is also where Ash came into his own as a character for the first time because we learned what made him special, his abstract battling style, and Sawyer noticed this and emphasized upon it the entire series. Sawyers existence, although nerdy and uncool, allowed us to learn more about our boy Ash and even caused our boy to grow in character development. I think that's something a lot of rivals didn't bring out in Ash, even Paul, as Ash was a consistent unwavering character in his beliefs against Paul in that series.

      first time? ash has always been his own character. the entire D&P series were all about his abstract battle ideas from counter-shield to that weird spin move. hell, he had infernape use flare blitz underground to get rid of toxic spikes. he had staraptor close combat the ground to get out from under a gastrodon. his grotle literally _ATE_ an energy ball to power up somehow.
      even before D&P we had classic battles such as when snorlax uses a hyper beam to fly, or, and as stupid as it was, when pikachu shocked himself and swellow to give them 'thunder armor'. abstract battling has always been a very prominent part of ash's character.
      Paul didn't change what Ash believed in, but he challenged those beliefs just by existing.
      Ash himself has never really changed in terms of character ever since Johto. prior to hoenn, Ash was still a bit clumsy, had some doubts, and overall just seem inexperienced. post-johto Ash is a whole lot more confident in his abilities and seems to know the ins and outs of battling so long as it's not the beginning of the series.
      the only thing that changes nowadays is Ash's knowledge in battles. sometimes he knows exactly what he's doing and yet at other times he'll tell pikachu to thunderbolt a ground type and go, "WUH!?"
