Gen I through V rivals
A Rival is a Trainer Class in the game that battles you often throughout the main storyline, often being a childhood friend or a bully and hater to the player. When your player picks a Starter Pokémon, the rival will have a type advantage over your starter with the exception of Dawn or Lucas, especially Bianca, who all choose the Pokémon with a type disadvantage. Wally starts out with a Ralts, rather than a conventional Hoenn starter.
