Since Team Yell's entire premise is based around Melanie, she must play a notable role in the series. I suspect she'll be a rival for Ash.

something similar to Rika from Digimon.Since Team Yell's entire premise is based around Melanie, she must play a notable role in the series. I suspect she'll be a rival for Ash.
The fact that y'all actually expect Hop, Bede and Marnie to be Ash's rivals is cute. The writers can barely handle one rival these days without screwing things up, so I'm personally not expecting Ash to have three rivals even if the Galar saga might be more battle oriented. Marnie in particular probably has the least chance of becoming Ash's rival since she's a female and the writers have this tendency to not give Ash serious recurring female rivals. She'll probably become more like a supporting character than anything else imo.
Zoey was more of a friendly rival.Yeah, DP had a ton of rivals and for the most part they were handle decently (besides Kenny IMO).
Anyway, for who will be the female companion, I can only see three options (Gloria, Sonia, or an anime-exclusive character). Gloria is pretty self explanatory. Sonia, they would have to de-age, but they have done that before. Lastly, I can see an anime-exclusive character which they have done before with success in Paul and Zoey (granted, they were rivals).
The fact that you actually expect them to not shoehorn all game rivals is cute.The fact that y'all actually expect Hop, Bede and Marnie to be Ash's rivals is cute.
You don't need to post exact same thing over and over.So far, it's Gloria or Bea that will likely be Ash's female companions.

Who said anything like that? There will be only one major rival, as usual.I just don't see why we should expect all three of them to be handled the same way as major rivals.

If Marnie becomes a Main Rival (Alongside Bede and Hop)
Single person said something.Oh gee let me see:
Nothing against this person's post, but this is a prime example of what I meant. And of course a lot of Twitter fans and people on other forums have also brought up the possibility of Ash having three main rivals in Galar, but I'm not going to quote every single one.
The more I hear about Galar, the more excited I become
Really hope its on the battle heavy side as the games imply
I had someone point out recently that the anime tends to react to major changes by swinging back, and I suspect that SM will have a swing back. At the very least I am fairly certain with YKW on the decline they'll have less pressure to be YKW.
Sorry to sound dumb but YKW?
