Ash and Kukui's relationship has had buildup too, especially now that his secret identity has been exposed. Not as much as the rivalry with Paul, but still. Also, remember that in the second SM episode, Kukui was supposed to battle Ash, but he never got to, because Ash ended up battling Tapu Koko instead. So in a way, this could be seen as that battle they didn't get to have back then.
Oh yeah, back when I thought he would battle with Rockruff
Paul was definitely the best rival the series has ever had, more utilized which is a shame as Kukui could have battled more and made this battle more exciting
