You probably got the point from the title, but this thread is just for posting the name of your rival. Any game... Red, Yellow, Diamond, Platinum, Gold... whatever.

In Crystal when I decided to start over, I named him Susan only because I thought it would be funny to have a guy rival with a female name. I think I had Drake & Josh in my head, because there was an early episode where Drake has a girlfriend named Susan.

In Platinum, since my name is Barry, that's what I named my player. I couldn't name my rival Barry also (that was one of the choices) so I just named him after my friend Randy.
 
I think I named him Clint last time. :/ I haven't played in a little while.

Throughout my pokemon history, I've named my rival a number of things...from Gary to Douche. o3o
 
In Diamond I named him Damien. My Trainer was Dimande. In Pearl, I believe I named him Barry. I used the girl Trainer and named her Perle. In Platinum my Trainer is Yoshi and the rival is Link.
 
In LeafGreen I named him Not Now. That was what I moaned whenever he came onto the scene D:
 
Since I am uber-original, I named my rival Damion in Platinum, while I was Rei.

In Diamond I was considerably more imaginative, naming him Hikaru and myself Sakaya.
 
Gary Was named "asshole" ... And my rivel in silver was named "amber" (i always thought he was a girl... With a strong punch)
 
I named my character Covet and my rival is Mystery. Both are named after mine and my bf's online identities, respectively.
 
In LG, I named him Blue, and GREEN in FR. In Pearl, I had named him Tetris and Pearl in Platinum.

I wish naming Lucas was an option, so I could name him Doofus. Does Hikari act as diddly dumb as Lucas does?
 
I named him Qwerty... I couldn't think of anything, okay?! And yeah, Douche seems to be a pretty popular name. I'd rather have it "A douche," though.

That way, Rowan says "A douche was looking for you." "A douche is waiting for you in Snowpoint City." I'm so mature.
 
I went with the default name every game in the first three generations. In Diamond, I named him Fabio because it sounded silly. In Platinum, I named him Herbie, after Herbie Hancock, to go with the musical theme, whereas my Pokémon were all named after classical composers.
 
Since I replayed RBY so many times, the rival had a ton of really uh, awesome names. And by "awesome" I mean immature. My favorite was "DR. EVIL" for whatever reason. My mum's tradition, because of all of that, is to name her rivals "Basterd" [sic... on purpose]. But he's also been named fairly normal things. I don't remember much anymore. In Platinum he's Tae, 'cause my character is Jae. Nowadays all the names match. p:
 
Named him after my real-life rival in G/S/C and Fire Red..
Was Gary in Yellow. And I couldn't name him in Sapphire. Duh.
